collynzo2: Cameroon is not a threat nowadays and Ghana might not even get to the next round.

Soso990240: who de fear Ghana? I go bet my money say Super eagles go beat ghana wit dis current form.

Saklekplus: Its not his fault,its just dat dis guy (odemwingie) love his country,dnt crucify him,jst 4giv him

breezy047:

I believe we don't get to meet top teams in the finals.
We pair against a small team.

CIV
Ghana
Mali
Nig
Cam
Egypt
Sen
Congo

As it stands now these are the teams topping their groups and with prospects of reaching the finals. . .arranged by the fifa rankings.

As it stands now, Civ faces the weakest which is Congo,
Ghana vs Sen
Mali vs Egypt
Nig vs cameroon.

If we don't want to face cameroon then let the confederations cup help us boost our fifa ranking to 3rd or 2nd in africa, that way we get to face egypt or Senegal.

I clearly stated 'As it stands now' because come friday and saturday, when all teams play, the table likely changes and we likely get new group 'toppers'

This is not necessarily the standard CAF uses to pair teams for the finals but its most likely.

donem: Congrats SE for your well deserved victory, thanks for making Nigerians proud.

Willie_A: Rumble on, big mouthed Nigerians! During the match at Calabar,you escaped by the skin of your teeth. I think you used juju. This time, there will be no last minute goal! And tell your players we have prepared for them a training pitch in a desert next to Somalia!!

collynzo2: you are wrong Zambia is topping Ghana's group. Check all your facts before posting

Jarus: Yekini's double vs Kenya in 1992 Nations Cup

Current SE strikers need to learn from this guy.

texaco1: the difference between ghana and nigeria is that Ghanians have good midfielders which is what is lacking in our super eagles but the Ghana team has always lacked quality strikers and they have always relied on their midfielders for goals that is where Nigeria strength is Nigeria has a pool of quality strikers which even poses a bigg problems for our coaches,if we can get our midfield right no team will be able to withstand our eagles

collynzo2: The difference between Nigeria and Ghana is that Nigeria currently has the longest unbeaten run for any country in the world, while Ghana has not won any trophy for 32 years.

SIRCONFIDENCE: Where is that Kenyan guy in this thread that was saying rubbish.

dvcol: Guy if u nor know anything u better keep quiet..Ghana pass us for football..don't know about any other sports but football Ghana dy ahead of us...they are 4times AFCON champions..#speacking as a football fan

X-factoria:


I actually just viewed this video on youtube after the just concluded match and was thinking the same thing. We haven't had another striker so prolific like Yekini. May his soul rest in peace!

CFCfan: The Super Eagles are now unbeaten in their last 23 FIFA world cup qualifying matches! Awesome.
Also, Keshi has not yet lost a competitive game as Chief coach.

Willie_A: If games could be won on Nairaland forum, Nigeria would have won even during the first leg at Calabar. You just open your big, ugly mouths and then put the tail between your legs when the expected win does not happen. We will beat you so comprehensively that you will ask FIFA never to place you in the same group with Kenya again.

yoged: you are right but i believe Emenike can do better. Have always said it, Brown ideye is only good at club level, he's always dissappointing at Country level right from the junior team. If we depend on ideye at the confederation, then we shouldn't expect goals at all. We should invite more strikers to the team. Imoh ezekiel has been prolific same as eneramo. They deserve to be called.

joseph1013:

As much as I love Keshi, the way he chose to invite Akpala and those local players instead of proven scorers like Imoh Ezekiel and Eneramo leaves much to be desired. Akpala has been on injury and just recovering and Keshi is playing a player that is not fit.

Ideye is just too wasteful infront of goals. We need to discover better strikers.

CFCfan: ^^
Bright Dike (no relation to Tonto Dikeh) also needs to be invited to the team. He is a big striker who also has good ball control, and excellent touches.

ghananotnaija: You may have won today, but Ghana will go much farther than Nigeria in the World Cup. Too bad there's no head-to-head between the two teams, because in that case Ghana will surely crush Nigeria like insects and will shut all the Nigerians up for good.

Anyway, Kenya is known for marathons, not football, so it's not surprising that Nigerian won.

collynzo2: Bright Dike sustained a career threatening injury playing for his club, not likely to play again this year.
