Legendary Nigerian forward Daniel Amokachi has congratulated former Super Eagles goalkeeper Ndubuisi Egbo for winning the 2019/2020 Albanian League title with KF Tirana.
Egbo’s Tirana were confirmed champions on Sunday after title rivals and second placed Kukesi lost 1-0 at Vllaznia.
Kukesi’s defeat means Tirana are seven points ahead of them with two games left to play in the season.

And reacting to Egbo’s achievement, Amokachi, speaking on his radio programme ‘The Bull’s Pit’ on Brila FM on Monday, said: “We Africans don’t get opportunities like that in Europe. And if we get opportunities like that and became champions of a league in Europe I think we should celebrate it.
“The media shouldn’t go and sleep on this we should celebrate ours because it’s not something small this young man just achieved.
“To be a head coach in Europe and win a league in Europe I think we should celebrate him.”
Tirana, who last won the league title in 2009, have now won it 25 times.
Egbo have the chance to make it a double for Tirana of they win the Albanian Cup final.

I second your motion @ DaBull….we should celebrate it even to the highest heavens.
Our Twitter african guadiolas can celebrate other coaches and teams on social media, but their own teammate to 2 AFCONs has won the league in Europe (1st African/Black man ever to do so) but not even a congratulatory has come from them.
What a fairy tale it will be if Ndubuisi Egbo goes on to win the cup to complete a double sweep. By now all Nigerian/African media houses should be buzzing this guy’s picture on their front pages. These are the types of ex-internationals that deserve to be celebrated….not the ones waiting for NFF to develop them.
@Dr Dre, abeg try forgive this your african guardiola na. You have been hitting him left, and crentre. Afterall No be him give himself that name na Mr Pinnick give am that title. Even then he even tried to reject it and by exension also leave the other ex-internationals that are running to NFF, them go learn from this success of Ndubuisi. You know that It is easy to fail maths when you don’t have example. So as Mr Ndubuisi has set the example others will follow.
I’m fully in support of ur motion @ BULL….
Even if it’s a rubber spoon, It worth celebrating….
If u think what a coach EGBO did is easy then go and try let’s see….
Kudos to coach EGBO….
KEEP THE FLAG FLYING….
We should celebrate our own. The media should also focus on good news so thing that will encourage Nigerian coaches.

Congrats nwanne, we are so proud of you!!!! All those bad belles(the lazy ex internationals) will not congratulate u but just peep, jump and pass like miserable fleas. Their bad belle too much! Even the one that usually writes nonsense articles here on csn, the one who said he’d sink with a novice to coach the eagles will not write to congratulate him, if na to write rubbish na, na there you go see am. Show them how to do it brother, you’ve shown those lazy ones out there that u can survive and thrive successfully in a racist environment. Imagine, Cole once said that the reason why is not coaching is bcos he’s black. That’s very absurd and ridiculous. You’ve proven him wrong and shown to the black race that it is possible.
