The Udinese shot-stopper told Oma TV, how he’s been able to recover from the shock.
Okoye was singled out for the blame after the defeat to the North Africans.
“People will always say something bad about you. I know that I didn’t do good in that situation, and I know that I let my teammates and my country down in that situation.
“And I still to this day feel unhappy and sad about it, and I wish I could do differently, but it happened and I learnt from my mistake”, he said.
After missing the 2023 AFCON in Ivory Coast, Okoye returned to the team for the 2026 World Cup qualifier.
