dridowu: I dnt take Super eagles serious at all but Eboue tweet make me to shed tears 4 my 9ja. I openly support NIGERIA no matter the situation.
GOD BLESS NIGERIA
you are absolutely correct,it was the insult in eboue tweet that brought out the determination and fighting spirit in nigerians ,even after the tweet kanu and okocha went to tak to the boys and lift their spirit up.at times in life when ppl insult ,abuse or look down on you it can be a blessing in disguise to bring out the best in you.this has happened to me ,ppls insults can spurn u to spring surprises

1. Football is unpredictable.
2.The whole world loves it when a David beats a Goliath.
3. Success has many fathers and Failure is an orphan.
4. We should always support the lads,once they are wearing our colours and representing us.
5. Never go into any contest between two teams with over confidence-Pride comes before a fall.

@ holyvirgin
Starters always look like failures, they keep failing and making mistakes, but ignore the stages and determine to get there.
People who laugh at your mistakes will praise you when you finally get there.
How true!

I think the best legacy that can come out and be learnt from the victory of the super eagles yesterday and the whole Nigerian coaching staff and players at this tournament is that we do not need a foreign or western, white coach to help us lift a trophy or win games.
In this tournament, I have been watching Stephen Keshi closely and I have to say that I am impressed with the way he has conducted himself, he never points fingers, takes everything in his stride, never play the blame game and most important of all, he seems to command the respect of his players. He looks to me as someone who is technically astute, as shown in his tactics in the game yesterday.

I think al lot of other African countries will now look at Nigeria as a leading example of using home grown talents rather than importing foreign goods to do what we can do ourselves. it made me feel proud yesterday that we won, but even prouder I was that it was one of our own who was at the helm when it happened. I think it's time we start realising in Africa that only we can resolve our problems and not foreign powers. Well done to keshi and the boys.

The most important lesson for me was the selection process of keshi.
Keshi threw caution to the wind and refused favouritism.
He picked his team without adding MUsa,
Musa's inclusion in this team was as a result of the usual wazobia arrangement that happens in everything we do.
I'm not against the northerners.
I wouldn't care if the whole team were northerns as long as they are the best.
Let's learn to put the progress of Nigeria first against tribal differnce.
I listened to Aljazeera and they showed mba and emenike's goal, they didn't reffer to them by their tribe but by their Nationality.
Let the best man take the lead enough of WA ZO BIA arrangement.

Keshi is a lesson in leadership:

1. Properly analyse what is needed to succeed.

2. Make tough choices. Change under performing people.

3. Stick to your guns when people complain.

4. Be prepared to resign if your master plan does not work.

5. Guide your master plan to it's conclusion.

6. Be prepared to succeed or lose. If you have done your homework well, you will likely succeed.

Lessons to learn from Super Eagles victory over Cote D`Ivoire

1.Football pundits globally wrote the “Super Chickens” off
Morals: When the whole world have written you off remember your destiny lies in your hand

2.The Ivorian’s were more talented
Morals: Talent alone cannot give you result but passion for what you are doing and your determination to succeed.

3.The Ivorian’s have been together as a team for over five years
Morals: It is not how long that matters but how well

4.Seventeen players in the Nigeria team where making their first appearance in a major competition
Morals: To make a head way in any endeavour must not take decades the major determinants are your vision, set goals, pursuit of your ambition, determination and discipline.

5.Two home based players were included in the team, one of them was able to stop the number one rated team in Africa from doing damage in the defense, and the other scored arguably the best goal of the tournament so far.
Morals: No matter where you are domiciled your star can shine above others if only you have self-confidence, self-discipline and the belief that “I can make it”

No matter the negative happenings and developments in Nigeria, we can still make it with God on our side.

Many home-based players are as good as the foreign-based players and deserve to be given an opportunity to prove their mettle.
No one knew Sunday Mba until Stephen Keshi gave him an opportunity!

1.Even when people have given up on you so far u haven't given up on urself,there is hope
2.Determination and resilience makes an underdog steal d show:Dats d blessedness of perseverance!
3.There is enormous power in unity:after d Ebou's tweet,the boys came together to form an alliance to prove him wrong
And they did!
4. Ur opponent mission is to stop u, not to help u, so u have to devise every available means to silence him!
5.The biggest room in the world is called continuous improvement. where improvement reigns d best remains an adventure!
So let's have yours..the floor is open
Cheers!
ok, you try

Re: Lessons Learnt From Super Eagles Match Against Ivory Coast by holyvirgin: 4:12pm On Feb 04, 2013
ikeyman00: @@@@@@@@@

thats a lie and yall know it!!

if the truth has to be said a lot of Nigerians arent happy with the selection of players in the team only that they sees the team as an Igbo team

so u could clearly see the reason the country is in a mess in all corners

the only lesson right here is never underestimate the great igbo spirit

and that is that! period

no more no less; kiss it or leave it

let them keep the talking while we walk the talking
The last time I checked they were called Super eagles representing Nigeria not just the southeast.
.... Fyi am from the north and I support the eagles full time

If we follow up prayers with a little effort even in managing Nigeria affairs, d nation will bounce again.
Actually, reverse is the case, put more efforts in our actions with a little prayer and hope, then we can do wonderful things!

The lesson I learnt is that we have not won the cup yet and we should jubilate less and learn to refocuse our attention on the ultimate goal.

Mali did not come to count bridge at the Nation's cup.
Thank you
