First of all we didn't play bad we were just unlucky and the coach made the wrong choice in removing Iwobi instead of Moses or Mikel. Nevertheless we'll wait and see how we fare against Iceland and Argentina.

We were lackadaisical for most of the game.
Our legs hardly touched the ball in the last 4 minutes.

The super eagles were terrible today against Croatia in their opening match at the Russia 2018 world cup.
This is the worst game the super eagles have had in their world cup history.
All the players were terrible, the coach came with a rigid game plan that emasculated the team and locked in their advantage which was their youthful energy.
The super eagles looked pitiable against their opponent.
What do you guys think?
U ave said it all

Even the fine Jersey they went there to display, I didn't see them wear it tonight.
Like you rightly said, buhari is an epitome of bad luck. Everywhere he goes, Bad luck followed him. He visited Morocco, they lost their first game to a common Iran... He called our Eagles before the game, we lost our first game to a Croatian team that wasn't even fantastic tonight.

2019 should come quickly so that we can vote out this bad luck from our country.

Croatia were the designated home team through the seeding which they used to group them. We were the designated away team. Croatia have plenty white on their home jersey, which is why we couldn't wear our best jersey.

First goal own goal, second a penalty, that sum up the state of zoos football, I'll be surprised if they manage to score a single goal. Iceland is 300,000 same size of a local government in Nigeria, Croatia is 4 million, same size as Osun state. This country is doomed since the time of lord lugard, big for nothing but only gold medal in corruption.

And then Messi go see Naija now and start scoring us like we stole the goat he did photo shoot with

The comments here says it all about Nigeria. A country full of overly pessimistic people who still want something good to happen to them.

Fvck off!!! Have Nigerians not been patriotic enough ? The country has failed and what remains is for us to fight a war.

I don’t know how any rational person can still have hope in Nigeria. It has failed irretrievably!!!! Only politicians and criminals enjoy Nigeria. We have almost 170million distressed and bitter people. It is time we sat down and renegotiate our union.

See what Iceland, a country of 340k were able to do at the World Cup today. Are you not ashamed of yourself as a Nigerian?

I am not ashamed of myself as a Nigerian. Tell me why should I when I didn't chose where I will be born. I am not a frustrated person like you because I know that even in seemingly hopeless situation, I will always come on top. I report to my duty post every morning, full of positive energy, ready to do all within my little capability to improve the lots of those around. I am not a whinning pessimist like you and I can't be. People like you can complain from now till thy kingdom come, you generate negative energy, collectively run down the commonwealth but always turn around to blame your leaders. But do you really think a house full of a people like you deserve better leaders? Listen to yourself and tell me how your rants are different from recent Buhari's utterances. My advice to you is that you learn to stay positive, it does you a lot of good when you are caught in situations beyond your control. For now, you can't do Jack about your status as a Nigerian, embrace it and learn to be happy with it. For your information, I don't see a way out for you anytime soon. Even if you end up breaking Nigeria, who told you your situation will improve with your negative and frustrated attitude to life? Think my dear, there is more to life than citizenship of country one belongs to.

Really?.. this was the worst World Cup match Nigeria has ever played according to you?
There are at least 4 World Cup matches WORST than this that Nigeria have played..1. Nig vs Denmark 1998 .2. Nig vs Arg 2002.3.Nig vs Argentina 2010.4. Nig vs Paraguay 1998
We may have lost but your blanket condemnation of the team is far from being realistic and uncalled for.,if we win our next game you will be the first to start singing a new tune..
Croatia upon all your hype couldn't score an open goal,they needed a deflection and a penalty to win,that at least is a positive..

The super Eagles played good football today to my liking. I never expected them to play like that. The way you guy here on nairaland where talking bout them like Croatia 5 Nigeria nil but all your predictions didn't come even though Nigeria lost.
I still believe we can make it past the group stage, with the quality of players we have and our play, I see us passing the group stage. We lost but sure it's not over, we still got 2games. I still rep #NaijaAllTheWay
I like the positivity. This is how our people should be talking. With optimism. I understand people’s frustration. I completely understand it, but we have to do away with the pessimism and negativity, all that negativity leads to more negativity.
Stay positive

Give them a break. Some of us expected it to be worse than this. If they work on their weaknesses, the next match will at least be entertaining. grin
Yes! Your right. That’s the right perspective. Too many people here are negative. But I do understand why they are negative. It’s due to the situation of the country so I understand. For things to begin to get better, we need to be more positive. Be careful with words and what you say people

Brother, I respect you and completely align with your position. I realized that this platform is literally a playground of millennials who still enjoy freebies, pocket money and meals from their parents hence the feather-brained comments.

Some of them passed through the supposedly ivy-league private universities with first class in pharmacy, engineering etc yet they don't possess the knowhow to produce common paracetamol but are quick in bashing their fatherland.

Granted that the situation in Nigeria is grim and the leadership has successively failed, however, it is not a hopeless case. These young ones are harbingers of hate, unpatriotic tendencies and toxic vibes.

How does a defender generate wing to fly as high and lock up the neck of an opponent and escape penalty? Lazy youth footballers. Buhari was right then.

The guy is right, this is the worst world cup match i have ever seen Nigeria play irrespective of the outcome, when u cant hold ball for 30 seconds you know you have a problem, i am not angry about the result but the game play was even worse than saudi, if croatia did not use a goal keeper yesterday it will have little or no effect on the final outcome, it was that bad!!! anybody supporting that show of shame yesterday is validating mediocrity.
