Prior to Sunday's game, Yul had predicted that the Nigeria Super Eagles will defeat Ivory Coast in the championship game.
In a post on his Instagram page, he said “Today’s game will not get a penalty shootout. Nigeria will comfortably defeat the Ivory Coast.”
Nevertheless, Ivory Coast defeated the Super Eagles 2-1. Nigerians on social media expressed their dissatisfaction and called Yul's prophecy bogus after the loss on his page.
Reacting amid the backlash, Yul in a post on his page said “It is well. Thank you Super Eagles. Getting to the finals is as good as winning. We are proud of you all. Great performance in the tournament.
“Win or lose, good or bad, we’ve been here. I love my country Nigeria. Better days ahead. Giant of Africa.”
