Hello,
We are currently leading, 30 seconds after the beginning of the match! One goal to Nigeria, none to the Netherlands. "All we are saying, give us more goals!"
Seun.

I've brought a TV into my home-office for the first time ever; it's exciting and now I can understand why people are so crazy about sports. Our queer African country with all its problems has an opportunity to beat a country like Holland at something!  |

Heh... it's actually interesting. NEPA just restored power here, guess it's because of the match. I might just go to watch it...

It's 1-1 just after the beginning of the second half. Ron Vlaar scores and equalizer for the Netherlands in the 46th minute of the match (less than 1 minute into the second half). Tit for tat, eh?  Follow the Match LiveOlubayo Adefemi and Onyekachi Apam have bagged yellow cards in the first half of this match. |

Penalty Shootout after 1-1 draw. Nigeria got a one shot advantage, lost it, got the advantage again, then lost it again. So now it's 4-4 ...

7 - 6; the Netherlands lead. Nigeria 's number 19 to kick the ball. And he makes it 7-7.
7 - 7, the Netherlands number 2 scores the 19th penalty kick and it's 8 - 7.
8 -7, the Netherlands in the lead...

It's not impossible. But the crop of players are too complesant. After getting just a goal up they relax. It happened during South Korea match, again against the Nethelands. I am sceptical about them winning the championship. |

Thank God we, after much tension won. If not that guy that lost the first hope of Nigeria winning would have ...............................
Oh! yeah! Netherland lost too.
Afetr enough marketing (selling) of our keeper, we won.
Word? That's hot! Innit? People want to turn my street "up-side-down" They are shouting, screaming and throwing knockouts.
What's happening where you are?

Exactly! They did relax and this relaxation after a goal is the course of our losing much crucial matches.
"But they inherited relaxation from their grand father the Super Eagles".
Don't blame them.

i wonder there's so much hype about these games. it's just under-20 not our senior team. BTW, u should be ashamed of the boys. the old men had to go to penalties? against teenagers?
well, the rest of the world including me has been watching the confederations cup [brazil kicks ass. adriano rulez] and nobody here seems to be talking about that.

The match was a clash of fate as the two team played the same game.I was on my kneels till the end of the match praying. God was on our side.
Congratulations, Nigerians, and I wish for more success to come.

Why would we be talking about the Confederation cup when Nigeria is playing....even if it's the "just under-20 not our senior team" that's playing? Is Nigeria in the Confederation Cup? |
