If u observe the own goal, the goal keeper was completely out of his spot. I mean he was lost.

Don't forget the first time super Eagles used that jersey claimed to be the Lucky one. They lost to England. The jersey got nothing to do with the shambolic display they came up with.

Nigeria's identity is embedded in colour GREEN. It is our official colour. So why demonize our national colour?
I don't support it though. All I am saying is we shouldn't build a mountain of it. People do all over the world. At least for me I am not of that opinion.

I never trusted Akpeyi for once. I've always been saying that his manning the goal post is tantamount to keeping one bag of cement in the same goal post. He's a good for nothing opportunist. He is not worth to be called a goal keeper.

Sincerely akpeyi is not a good goalkeeper but he has no fault in the game against Algeria. Ndidi, etebo, omeruo were awful in the game, they could not keep the midfield intact, their passing was poor, they would not give the right players the ball, even ighalo had few touches.

no , the jersey caused it, if u are black or African team playing inside full stadium with a dark colored Jersey like black or bitter leaf green, your passes cannot be accurate cos of vision ,thereby u lack pass accuracy

He should just move on from all these blame game...

From the first blow of the whistle, we all saw the country that wanted the game more.

The better side won : SIMPLE!!
Zombie. Won't you praise ur daddy for allowing super eagles to wear Nigerian Jersey instead of Fulani own?

Our football need to be build like the way we used to build the under 17. I remembered Algiers 90, all the players Westerhorf took to the competition were locally based apart from Yekinni who played in ivory coast with Assec mimosa. Siasia and Keshi snubbed the national team because of club engagements. Sentiments aside ,Nigeria is blessed with guys that can run for 90 minutes non stop. Our coaches are very lazy to gather those boys and select the best. We have got talented youth that can play good football all over the country.

Why will you blame only the goal keeper for the loss
Blame the whole team..
And Ndidi who caused the free kick in a dangerous position
ndidi was not even at fault for the free kick he did what is expected, it's was poor clearance from that defender

I am tired of this kind of comments, did you think football is all about kicking the ball? Or did you think the coach have better option and the ones he chosed or did you think he doesn't like his job or doesn't like being successful?

The goalkeeper failed to build his defence wall properly.....but that's the game .
Re: Okey Bakassi Blames Goalkeeper Akpeyi For Super Eagle Loss To Algeria by nkemjacob2(m): 7:44pm On Jul 15, 2019
Since the history of the Nigeria football, it is this squad that we are having bad keeper. Even if the players are bad, our keepers are always good.

Enyeama did not pass the good trend appropriately

Re: Okey Bakassi Blames Goalkeeper Akpeyi For Super Eagle Loss To Algeria by daviesmania(m): 7:51pm On Jul 15, 2019
am not with u on this sir, it wasn't the goal keeper that caused the freekick in the first place.
secondly, we've seen all sort of freekicks trick other keepers in the past.

The comment above is the truth and there is nothing more to add.

Last time I checked, keepers are not strikers nor midfielders that should feed the strikers so they can score goals.

Blaiming a keeper for the SE's defeat is very shallow when he is not responsible for the own goal nor the reckless tackle not far from the penalty box at the 11th hour and expected to miraculously catch that well coiled superb free kick from a superb player that had a free day mesmerizing the SE's from start to finish.

Stop looking for a fall guy people, the keeper wasn't the cause of SE's abysmal performance and defeat yesterday.

His wonderful rescue at 27th minute that would have led to the first goal has been forgotten...

I strongly believe a lot of people have strong beef for this guy and that's why even people who watch back of the television will also believe that Eagles will humble Algeria.. I watched Algeria on several occasions and I doubted our ability to humble them..

I was never surprise with the result.. It was expected..
exactly. nobody is talking about that save anymore.Plus the free kick was superb. World class goalkeepers have been beaten from such positions.

Akpeyi Isn't a Good Goalie but I give it to him in this tournament
The problem yesterday was loss of concentration
Did you GuyZ not see that idiot that slept on the floor when the kick was been taken
I felt disgusted yesterday
Me wey I no be professional no fit sleep

and whats wrong with sleeping on the floor, is it the first time u are seeing it? Defenders do a lot even in champions league to stop the ball in case the freekick is player low when the players forming the wall must have jumped

somehow:
Akpeyi was in the middle and saw the ball.

The ball was simply too fast and well placed.

Lastly, for those who expected him to stand far away from the wall, what happens if he had played it over the wall?

Nigerians are the blame masters.


nobody will blame a keeper for a freekick that beats the wall.. There was no way mahrez would have curled that ball above the wall yesterday because we had huge men forming that wall.... but with the keeper's positioning, the freekick became a penalty as far as mahrez was concerned

lol..there was nothing superb about that freekick, forget the hype... Mahrez just played the ball into an empty net after he saw the keeper was wrongly positioned

The team played like they were having stage fright, terribly poor, could not press, could not pass, conceeding free kicks all over the place.

Will not blame the keeper, he made some good saves before then.

where have u ever seen a goal keeper sets his wall for a free kick to cover a side of his post and still stand directly behind the wall.

The player played the ball towards the angle he was suppose to be standing. The ball still passed. If mahrez had curled the ball past the top of the wall into the post its a different ball game.

That keeper na Akamu abeg. We have no keeper in this country. Ikeme was our last hope.

honestly I doubt Akpeyi was even looking at the ball before he played
Re: Okey Bakassi Blames Goalkeeper Akpeyi For Super Eagle Loss To Algeria by somehow: 10:23pm On Jul 15, 2019
So staying in the middle is now an offense? and who says Mahrez can't curl one over the wall? which huge men do you have in the SE? or you do
not know what "huge" means again? Go and compare huge from Mali, Senega and Cameroon with your so called huge in the SE.

I don't think so sir.

In my opinion, we have not really learnt much as a country. In terms of preparation. We do the same thing in almost all football competitions.

After the Wednesday game, watch. We will go on the normal third term long break till the fever of the next Afcon comes again. That's one side.

Did you notice that most teams are now giving their best from the sound of the whistle in the start of the game? Algeria were on us from the start! We were busy studying them and with our passing with ourselves. We should learn as a team and as a nation to be hungry for success. Hungry to give it all from the start.

I can say many other things but it's well.

It's no one's individual fault that we lost. We should lick our wounds and toughen up for Wednesday game.

Proudly Super Eagles (I say it with pain).

Pressing high from the get go is only ideal if you have hardworking and durable players like Liverpool. There's no harm in waiting to pick your chances but only if you are strong defensively

Let's not blame the keeper, blame the coach, ekong scored an own goal, ndiddi was at fault for the winning goal for Algeria

Don't blame the gk? Did u see etebos free kick vs south? It would have been a goal if it was akpeyi in goal
