mukina2: The Super eagles of nigeria defeated Mali 4 -1 in a one sided semi final match, with goals from Musa, Echiejile, Ideye and sissoko scored an own goal.

After atrocious referring decisions, the Burkinabees had a legit goal disallowed and a player sent off, they came back from 1 down , leveled the score through bance, went to shoot outs and won.


detailed preview + teamlists to be posted later

Since we have no polls. we will do it in two separate posts

They should watch out for a card, I'm seeing redcard but God will help them its gon be a hard match

SailorXY:
u didn't have to write in large fonts for your envy to stink so bad!

BOKO NA FASO beat the Black Cattles, quite easily by the look of things. don't let the penalty shoot out the ref drag the game into deceive you. and quite frankly, i suggest u be grateful to burkinabees for sparing ur Black Cattles the embarrassment Ghana football may not have been able to recover from in 15 years. CIV and the Black Cattles are considered "powerhouses", then what does that make the TEAMS who used the 'powerhouses' as tissues?

thanks for your response to the young man's ignoranmoser. There is nothing like luck , we are there cos we have wat it takes to be there .. He should not be decieved , up super eagle

We did in the West in 1980, North in 1994, we were suppose to do it in the south in 1996, but withdrew.
Now that we're back we just wanna win it.
Its a done deal!

Can't wait brothers.

It is called creativity.
What he did isn't hard to do if you're that creative.

Easyfren: Ivory Coast can be likened to Barca FC in d last 7 yrs: whoever beats Barca in d last 7yrs wins European Champios league or Barca wins it. In d same vein, whoever beats Ivory Coast in d last 7yrs wins Nations' Cup. So Nigeria can start counting her chickens before they're hatched. GOD BLESS NIGERIA!

Wrong analysis!
Ivory coast lost to Algeria in Q-final, in Angola 2010, yet the competition was won by Egypt. Always get your facts right!!!

This match is going to be a straight contest between a stiletto and a hammer, between a fighter jet and a tank. Burkina Faso has a solid rugged team with a couple of impressive strikers up front and a good defence. Nigeria has players of high technical ability and their midfield has been second to none in the competition. They also have a deadly strike force up front which is likely to keep any defence busy and worried. What Nigeria has to do today is to strike first and strike hard, and aim for the jugular with that stiletto. If they waste time and opportunities, they will live to regret it, because the hammer can still remain effective long after the stiletto has lost its sharpness. Burkina Faso have a knack for springing late surprises and scoring late goals. However they seem to take their time before they get going and that is one of their main weaknesses.

I just hope the Eagles can bring back the good ol' days of the 90s when even Brazil and Argentina couldn't fvck with us. Also let us show them that we dont need foriegn coaches to attain victory.

nigeria 0 - burkina faso 2 or 3
