Deltamani:.. Honestly,they could not,they tried to compete for awhile, however,as the game went on,the Moroccans slowly wore out... |
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by carbonado(m): 5:45pm On Apr 12 |
Deltamani:...South Africa's modus operandi over the years is simple,kick to the flank,let thembi chase,that way they will catch the opposing team out of position,hence scoring from it. The thing is,this present Nigerian team is a lot younger that the team that went to WAFCON,hence they do catch up to the South Africans easily. 2 Likes |

It was Thembi and Jermaine Seoposenwe up front, both of whom were effectively contained by the resolute SF defense. daveP: |
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by AkinDS: 6:04pm On Apr 12 |
I was pleasantly surprised how the likes of Okeke, Alozie and Ucheibe were able to match her stride for stride and in some cases, outpaced her on 50/50 balls. Our defenders deserve more credit for their speed. Impressive. carbonado: 3 Likes |

I watched the first leg in Lusaka and thought Zambia were the far better side, even though they lost at home. Not surprised they pulled it off in Morocco. Deltamani: |
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by Deltamani: 6:15pm On Apr 12 |
AkinDS: As for Ucheibe Iโm not surprised and canโt be surprised as she has showed how good she was right from U20, I didnโt notice her at U17 level thoughโฆ I was a little bit skeptical about Okeke especially when you said sheโs heavy but again she proved herself.. Alozie whoโs originally a quick forward was able to match her too and sheโs gradually getting used to the African Style of Football which requires a lot of Strength/Physicality.. 2 Likes |

naptu2:..Lol...no wonder he is so pained,he kept lamenting for a while... |
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by carbonado(m): 7:59pm On Apr 12 |
AkinDS:... Absolutely,there were a few times in that 1st leg that,it became a serious foot race between Ucheibe and Kgatlana, Thembi did not win the race, Ucheibe just muscled her of the ball a few times. |
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by BascoVanVeli(m): 8:42pm On Apr 12 |
AkinDS: The same thing he did after we lost to Benin. If u look at the lines woman it is clear that she was looking for a reason to cancel the goal. Forget VAR cos we had a clear penalty against England that was completely overlooked 4 Likes

Rofiat Imuran scored a brace vs Paris FC today Chiamaka wasn't in goal oh |
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by dkay51(m): 10:47pm On Apr 12 |
BascoVanVeli: Yea, I was only pointing it out because he said that it was only the individual brilliance of Nnadozie that was ensuring we don't concede. |
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by dkay51(m): 10:52pm On Apr 12 |
mostob:'a more decent side' which side is more decent that SA in Africa, abi we were going to play europeans to qualify? |
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by BascoVanVeli(m): 11:12pm On Apr 12 |
dkay51: Oh u are definitely right we have been lights out defensively. |
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by AkinDS: 12:13am On Apr 13 |
Really nice game. Could have had a hattrick, but was denied by the post in the 64th min. She is planting a stake in the sand to be considered an SF winger https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wL6LDVD_BMI BascoVanVeli: 1 Like |

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by Deltamani: 1:05pm On Apr 13 |
AkinDS: Good performance from her but she seems to have lost the Defensive Side of her game maybe because of her playing as a left Winger for Stade de Reims.. Sheโs very quick, and I believe she can go toe to toe with Nicole Payne, Barbara Banda, Chawinga Sisters in a Foot race..! If she can emulate the likes of Salma Bacha, Sekina Karchaoui she will become an excellent Left Back because those two knows how to combine both defending and Attacking together wether theyโre playing as Wingers or Left Back, one of the reasons those two in most occasions Play together for France. Even at Lyon or PSG the Coaches sometimes pushes either of them to play as Winger.. Full Game Clip https://www.youtube.com/live/1ee4-wfnEhg?si=LGXvVKfRPnaJKM6B |

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by mostob(m): 1:57pm On Apr 13 |
Deltamani:Right now, I don't think we have any natural FB. Nicole maybe. Maybe we should start playing them as WBs or find a suitable tactic to make up for their defensive frailties. |
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by Deltamani: 2:15pm On Apr 13 |
mostob: Rofiat Imuran been played as a Winger at Clubside, coming back to Nigeria National team she goes back to Left Back.. Alozie same thingโฆ I think right now we have only Nicole Payne whoโs Originally a Right Back and still retains same position at Club level, just hope she gets more game time at Portland Thorns.. 3 Likes |

๐จBanyana Banyana legend Portia Modise comes down hard on Super Falcons, describe the side as a โpoor Nigeria team.โ Modise who is Banyana top scorer with 101 goals, shared her views after South Africa lost 1-0 aggregately to Nigeria during the Olympics qualifiers. โI am hurt even now after seeing the game; itโs my first time to see a poor Nigeria team like this since I started football; we needed to beat that team; they didnโt have anything to scare us,โ Modise said on ๐๐๐ญ๐ซ๐จ ๐ ๐'๐ฌ ๐๐ฉ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ๐ฌ ๐๐ข๐ ๐ก๐ญ ๐๐ฆ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐ข๐๐ข๐๐ ๐๐ฌ ๐ฉ๐๐ซ ๐๐จ๐๐ฅ. โThat Nigeria players canโt trap the ball, they canโt do even first touches. That was not a Nigeria we used to play against, not this one. #olympicgames #Paris2024 #Olympics

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by PDPGuy: 7:03pm On Apr 13 |
mostob:The wing back option makes sense! Heck a 3-5-2 formation would be effective against either Japan or Spain, especially if the front two, one of the center midfielders and both wing-backs press high up to try to limit the build up from the back |
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by mostob(m): 9:00pm On Apr 13 |
PDPGuy:Yeah... Add the fact that most of our wingers are wide forwards. The formation would love them closer to the box. 1 Like |

BascoVanVeli:I thought she is playing as a CB for a club. |

I think she can play everywhere along the backline she can slot in as DMF too mostob: |
