Croatia are way too professional to just "decide" to lose. They will likely play for and get a draw to cement top spot. They have qualified but they surely will want to avoid France, which could be their worst case scenario in this whole furore.

It is really a straight dogfight between naija and the argies.

RuuDie:


What makes me support a particular team is nobody's business... na pipu like u dey always bring up useless "real/fake fan" talk. You support a club in Spain, but don't even know the name of one in naija, yet you want to label other people unpatriotic... oshey Captain Nigeria!

So how does supporting/not supporting the country team in a sporting competition relate to voting, politics, contributing to socio-economics and national development?

Smh. I been dey think sey u get sense pass like dis sef!

Croatia is guaranteed 1st even if they lose 20-0.

"that's the way to Argentina bro"

A40:
I don't know if I would ever forgive these boys if they let Argentina through. Messi bants aside there are three teams I can never ever support: Italy, Cameroon and Argentina

What bothers me is Argentina are the more desperate team and judging by the stewpid mistake Ebuehi made today we can be vulnerable

And can Rohr gather the balls to bench Moses? This was the worst display I've ever seen in my life from a Nigerian #7

Swissh:

.Supporting another country in a sporting event is not
unpatriotic. It is the Nigerian national team not the Armed forces. The
Nigerian coach is German, Germany are also in this world cup, if Nigeria face
Ger,Rohr will do everything to ensure Nigeria wins.

What a pity.

I understand the pain of seeing your sweetheart ridiculed. Its becoming unbearable that your only defence is "its no body's business".

However you miss it when a so called Green passport carrier is delusional on where his loyalty should lie it becomes all Nigerians concerns.

And Mr silly how do you know I don't know anything about Nigerian club sides. Am not like you that disowns his heritage on the platter because of Messi.

Imagine your son jubilating that you his father lost a competition to a neighbor for reasons " that are his business" what a joyful family and son you raised.

I leave you to your ignominy.

Up Super Eagles.

RuuDie:


I am honestly very disappointed in you. I thought you capable of reasoning better... apparently not!

LethargiQue:


Honestly..I'm happy with the way things are turning out for my country, Nigeria.


Speaking of argentina, and with nothing but good wishes for messi, I watched him against Iceland and I was disappointed. Same thing against Croatia. With the way he has been lazy on the pitch, I just agreed that he doesn't deserve the trophy. Doesn't have leadership qualities like Ronaldo in this world cup. The difference between ronaldo and messi is that messi is never quiet, his influence is seen from the very first minute, but it feels ronaldo is the one wearing Messi's boots in this tournament.


I'm just happy to see Nigeria beat Iceland, I'd like them to best Argentina too so messi can go home and rest for next season..


I'm not taking back my word about Argentina tho. Argentina have not played as a team and messi hasn't stood out after 2 matches. 1 point from a possible 6 with all the names in that Argentine side, there's no excuse!


Messi is the best player but Ronaldo is miles above him in the tournament, it's glaring.

Miremoses1:
no no, where are the words bro.

This is how you make a meme.

Edubbs:
Coutinho has become Neymar's sidekick.
So far Neymar hasn't done well, then Coutinho steps up and is lifting the team.
Probably Neymar might score a hattrick in the quarter finals and then everything will be alright again!

My point

Against Iceland Messi had 3 or 4 players around him and nobody could help out.

Against Croatia Messi became despondent right from the singing of the anthems.

He looked to his left and right and saw Meza, Salvio, Caballero, Tagglifico, Acuna, Enzo Perez.
That was the team selected to play world class Croatia!!

He looked to the bench and saw De Maria, Banega, Dybala, Biglia, Fazio, and Rojo.

I bet Messi probably did want to play that match.

Sampaoli should be sacked, bundled to argentina and charged with treason.

RuuDie:


They are if naija beat Argentina by one quarter of that...

raumdeuter:


Naija lost the head to head to Croatia and I think head to head comes first. Croatia is guaranteed first position

usbcable:


Sharaap there.

NEPA no give you light charge phone when your guys were saying it that they are now Argentines.

RM FAM said it then and still saybit over again that Nigeria comes first.

Even in my office its like a curse. Barca fans are praying for Messi not even Argentina to qualify at the expense of Nigeria.

How sick can a fanbase be? No need answering since I know your logic/explanation won't comprehend the nonsense and irrationality of the stance

Sorry

BoleAndFish:
There are reports that Messi influenced the starting line-up of that match against Croatia.

Edubbs:
Against Modric, Rakitic, Perisic, Mandzjukic, Vsarko, Lovren.

A coach leaves on the bench;

Dybala, De Maria, Banega, Rojo, Biglia, Fazio.


And features;

Tagglifico, Acuna, Enzo Perez, Meza, Salvio.


What manner of coach does that?

Lana1:
Ronaldo - 4 goals
Lukaku - 4 goals



How many has Messi scored??

Edubbs:
your Ronaldo and your Lukaku better bite Messi by getting to the final and winning the MVP o!

if not I will bring back this post.

Lana1:
Getting to the final is not a trophy. I repeat getting to the finals is not a trophy.
No one remembers the losers.....except Barca fans of course!

if portugal gets to the quarter final now, like you wouldn't boastfully proclaim;

"ronaldo singlehandedly took his team to the quarter final"

LordAdamX:


Have you ever heard any CR7 fan boast that Ronaldo singlehandedly took Portugal to the 2006 WC semi-final?

And what if someone makes that statement? Messi scored 4 goals in 2014 group stages against the mighty Bosnia, Nigeria, and Iran; then did not score or assist in the Ro16, QF, SF, or Final. He was a passenger in the knockout stages. Yet, you guys can't go a minute without shoving 2014 in our collective faces. Ronaldo has scored 4 goals already in 2 matches. Even if he doesn't score or assist again and Portugal somehow find themselves in the final, he has done as much as Messi did in 2014.

When people say Messi is facing undue criticism, I laff, because the blame should 100% go to his fanatics. You guys have made it your favorite pasttime to sh*t on CR7--an all-time great--on so many occasions, it isn't even funny. Then one time, one time he gets to walk in CR7's shoes, and he falls apart like a pack of cards. You guys practically brought the gasoline, wood, and matchbox to start this fire that's consuming Messi.

Messi could do all things. He could play anywhere with anyone. He is the ultimate team player. He could play all positions. He is alien.

CR7 on the other hand was the exact opposite.

Now, Messi is only human. Messi can have bad tournaments. Messi needs good teammates to succeed. The pressure on him is too much.

No sh*t!

Like everyone who regarded either of CR7, Pele, or Maradona as their personal G.O.A.T knew this except the delusional Messi wanksters.

The chicken has finally come home to roost and your folly has been found out.
