But this midfielders are not calling for ball.... They are so lazy. Chukwueze should try to change wings and call for ball... A tactical coach will crack this Tunis defense

Very cagey first half...these guys are double marking both Simon and Chukwueze...leaving gaps in the middle...I hope we can take advantage of that

lomprico:
Imagine Simon and osimen combo upfront

will be deadly

The boys have tried so far but the coach needs to change formation. Tunisia no be Guinea or Sudan for those of you talking rubbish.

FalseProphet1:
Calm down people Nigeria will defeat Tunisia tonight.

This I have seen.

The prophet has spoken

prinsam30:

Exactly

shortgun:
0-1 final score

Honestly, I saw a costly mistake by our keeper

Calm down guys

Tunisia is not a push over...Our coach is a good tactical man he knows what he needs to do to win this match.

You can't outrun or outmuscle your opponent in the first half of a knockout stage else you would get tired before 60mins of the game and the opponent will take advantage of tired legs.

Watch how SE will come flying in the second half and create many goal scoring opportunities but the only thing would be they should be clinical


The super eagles of Nigeria will be victorious tonight

Nice game so far

We don't have strikers

The Tunisians have gathered enough confidence now, I'm scared for Eagles

They better step up in the second half, if Tunisia scores first it's over.


Aribo isn't doing enough in the midfield.

EniHolar:


Forget it... The match is just boring

Tunisia are aware of Nigeria's unbeaten record in this tournament, so they came prepared to face us.

We should just keep supporting them and hope for the best, I'm personally not interested in interesting football, I need a win for the super eagles that's all.

How Eguavoen manages the second half will show us his tactical depth and determine if he's really the right man for the job.

Personally, I think he can tactically confusing the Tunisians, by switching to a false 9. Take off Awoniyi - A goal margin win is just enough.

I could be wrong - I'm not a trained coach.

Nigerians sha
Suddenly your coach no get sense
Common sense should tell you a coach always stick with what has been working
Carry your badluck commit here

Boss I never liked this man for one day..I watched the second match..i told my friend a well technical team go defeat us...

Against Sudan...No midfield play..All they do was get the ball.Take it to the wing..When they couldn't get it to the wing, Defenders launch it to attack...

There weren't players linking the middle to strikers.But the game against Guinea Bisau was different because nwakalli and iwobi were on the field..These are players that could hold ball, create chances through the middle, and also score..

Strategies are structured according to opponents. Not static.

We must start praying against Buharis badluck

NNEVERAGAINN:
This game Will end in penalty. Nja I'm sorry, you guys are coming home. You ain't good in penalty.

na lie u lie. Lies from the pit of hell. Typical ghanaian

swiftz:
Make this match no enter Pena ooo

Na Pena I dey see so oh

porthouse7:
expectation is high on nigeria because of our group stage performance, Tunisia qualified as best looser remember

and then, so they should allow naija to win abi

Abeg, someone should tell Eguaveon to start our real players because these ones are pretenders.

The ball stays too long with our defence who after stringing 5 valueless passes try some long ball. It's as if we don't have midfielders at all.

All those attacking Awoniyi are surely not watching this match because what do you expect him to do with little or no service from the midfield.

baralatie:

By packing the bus

Yes, that's the game

Buhari carry him bad luck call this people. Now they have to call Buhari back and tell him to un-call them so they can win this match.

leathalbeast:
45 mins of action, no shot on target for nigeria... Such an overhyped team. Like i said worst of blackstars= best super eagles. Lets go tunisia

Lol. Sure, they must GO with you guys since Ghana knows how to go

aryzgreat:
Awoniyi as our best striker na f""ck up

We need clinical finisher

Honestly! With that guy on the field, we're like one man down. Contributes nothing to our defense, yet he adds no value going forward either.

Iwobi
Ejuke

Should come in immediately

It was luck pushing Eguavon all along, the quality of our bench is being tested now.

The Tunisian coach watched our games and came with a working tactics to neutralize us which is working. Let's see if we have any coach.

Our wing play is shut down n we are stuck except we have a change of tactics it's a penalty shoot out loading.

The wing play is the problem, there should be more shot from distance in the second half, I really hope Nigeria wins this

Buhari call to the Eagles don de give them badluck. Which kain wahala be dis

Go Eagles Go.....

Yes Aribo and Ndidi should move the ball more.
