It's the way it should be, imo. What's the difference if you lose 4-0 or 1-0? If you get scored on in extra time, you may as well sacrifice defence for offence trying to equalize. You're going to go home if you lose anyway, so you might as well pull out all the stops and try to score. Nigeria did have a couple good chances doing this too, things just didn't quite work out and Chilie was able to score on the counter-attack.
