bboiabb: People are complaining than Nigeria doesn't have quality? What about Ivory Coast who are barely winning common Tanzania 3-2.. with a lot of time to go?/

Also, it's still Lesotho 0-0 Ghana, with 10 mins to go in the 1st half.

Cote D' Ivoire are the 1st team to advance to the 3rd round of the World Cup African qualifying zone. They beat Tanzania 4-2 away.

Sorry bro it is Tanzania they beat not Lesotho

Nellybii:

Sorry bro it is Tanzania they beat not Lesotho

Thanks

I expect strict defensive play.

Mikel and Ogude must never venture forward along with the 2 central defenders. . .
When we are attacking in the opponents 3rd, we do so with 6 or atmost 7 players and those are the 3 strikers, the 2 wing backs and the attacking midfielder.

And when we are defending in our own half, the defensive midfielders should always shield the defence, the 2 wing strikers shielding the wings in line with the defensive midfielders and both the attacking midfielder and the central striker staying upfront prepared for the counter.

In some cases, Mikel or Ogude should be prepared to to be a 5th man in the central defence.

I don't want opponents crossing in from our wings, stringing passes smoothly in our goalie or getting space to fire shots on or off target.

Echiejiele better stand firm this time around.

Looking forward to a good game though.

Anything less than a 10-0 victory is a disgrace to african football

Nigeria must win the match against Tahiti, and must score as many goals as possible, I have a very funny feeling our qualification from Group B,will be hinged on goals difference

The SE should be aware that their key to qualifying from the group is by beating Tahiti and Uruguay.

i think with hardwork,the eagles will go far.

A little to know about Tahiti
Tahiti is the largest island in the
Windward group of French
Polynesia (an overseas country of
the French Republic), located in the
archipelago of the Society Islands in
the southern Pacific Ocean. It is the
economic, cultural and political
centre of French Polynesia. The
island was formed from volcanic
activity and is high and
mountainous with surrounding
coral reefs. The population is
178,133 (2007 census),[1] making
it the most populous island of
French Polynesia and accounting
for 68.6% of the group's total
population. Tahiti was formerly
known as Otaheite.[2]
The capital, Papeete, is located on
the northwest coast with the only
international airport in the region,
Faa'a International Airport, situated
5 km (3.1 mi) from the town centre.
Tahiti was originally settled by
Polynesians between CE 300 and
800. They comprise about 70% of
the island's population with the
rest made up of Europeans, Chinese
and those of mixed heritage. The
island was proclaimed a colony of
France in 1880 although it was not
until 1946 that the indigenous
Tahitians were legally authorised
to be French citizens. French is the
only official language although the
Tahitian language (Reo Maohi) is
widely spoken. It was part of the
Kingdom of Tahiti until its
annexation by France in 1880.
Geography
Tahiti is the highest and largest
island in French Polynesia lying
close to Moorea island. It is located
4,400 km (2,734 mi) south of
Hawaii, 7,900 km (4,909 mi) from
Chile and 5,700 km (3,542 mi) from
Australia.
The island is 45 km (28 mi) across
at its widest point and covers an
area of 1,045 km2 (403 sq mi). The
highest peak is Mont Orohena
(Mou'a 'Orohena) (2,241 m (7,352
ft)). Mount Ronui (Mou'a Rōnui) in
the southeast rises to 1,332 m
(4,370 ft). The island consists of
two roughly round portions
centred on volcanic mountains and
connected by a short isthmus
named after the small town of
Taravao, situated there.
The northwestern portion is known
as Tahiti Nui ("big Tahiti", while
the much smaller southeastern
portion is known as Tahiti Iti
("small Tahiti" or Tai'arapū. Tahiti
Nui is heavily populated along the
coast, especially around the capital,
Papeete.
The interior of Tahiti Nui is almost
entirely uninhabited.[3]Tahiti Iti
has remained isolated, as its
southeastern half (Te Pari) is
accessible only to those travelling
by boat or on foot. The rest of the
island is encircled by a main road
which cuts between the mountains
and the sea.
A scenic and winding interior road
climbs past dairy farms and citrus
groves with panoramic views.
Tahiti's landscape features lush
rainforests and many streams,
including the Papenoo River on the
north side.
Climate
November to April is the wet
season, the wettest month of
which is January with 13.2 in (340
mm) of rain in Papeetē. August is
the driest with 1.9 in (48 mm).
The average temperature ranges
between 21 °C (70 °F) and 31 °C (88
°F) with little seasonal variation.
The lowest and highest
temperatures recorded in Bibys are
16 °C (61 °F) and 34 °C (93 °F),
respectively.[4]

Prehistoric colonization of Tahiti
The first Tahitians arrived in about
200 BCE,[5] after a long migration
from South East Asia or Indonesia,
via the Fijian, Samoan and Tongan
Archipelagos. This hypothesis of an
emigration from South East Asia is
supported by a number of
linguistic, biological and
archaeological proofs. For example,
the languages of Fiji and Polynesia
all belong to the same Oceanic sub-
group, Fijian-Polynesian, which
itself forms part of the great family
of the Austronesian Languages.
This emigration, across several
hundred kilometres of ocean, was
made possible by using outrigger
canoes that were up to twenty or
thirty meters long and could
transport families and domestic
animals. In 1769, for instance,
James Cook mentions a great
traditional ship ( va'a) in Tahiti that
was 33 m (108 ft) long, and could
be propelled by sail or paddles.[6]
In 2010, an expedition on a simple
outrigger canoe with a sail retraced
the route back from Tahiti to Asia.
[7]
Tahitian society was composed of
chiefdoms and territories based on
kinship and military power among
various clans. A clan was led by a
chief ( Ali'i rahi), nobles (Ari'i) and
lesser chiefs. The Ari'i were believed
to be descendants of Polynesian
gods and invested with
supernatural power (mana). A
symbol of their status were belts
made of red feathers.
View of Ra'iātea Mountain. The
mummies of Tahitian rulers were
formerly deposited on this
mountain, traditionally considered
sacred (tapu).
However, clan leaders did not hold
absolute power, and their role
included consulting with general
assemblies or councils, especially in
times of war. The marae was a
sacred place of worship constructed
of raised stone platforms in open
ground, performing a cultural
function similar to such structures
in other Polynesian societies. The
marae were at the centre of the
spiritual and social life of the clan.
Here, gods were invoked and
leaders enthroned. It was also a
place for ceremonies such as
preparation for war, birth
celebrations as well as burial
rituals. Types of marae ranged from
simple family platforms to larger
edifices for leaders of high status,
although all were considered tapu.
Early European contact saw the
arrival of the London Missionary
Society in 1797 who introduced
Christianity and documented the
Tahitian language (Reo Maohi).

With Goodluck on our side, Super eagles will overpower the Tahitians

Tahiti Players are made up of Tipper and Trailer drivers. For me it's one way match.Super E, 3 vs. 1 Tahiti. God bless naija. Adaobi is nw a Fball fan. Glory be to God.

Football history
Tahiti played its first full match on
21 September 1952, at home
against New Zealand, and drew 2–
2. Seven days later the two teams
played again and New Zealand won
5–3. On 30 September they played
each other for a third time, and
Tahiti gained its first victory, by 2–
0. However, it is unknown whether
this was a full international.[1]
In September 1953, Tahiti played
three matches in New Caledonia
against its national side, losing the
first 5–0 and the later two 4–1.
They then travelled to the New
Hebrides (now Vanuatu) and beat
its national side 4–2 twice.
Tahiti entered its first World Cup
qualification with the aim of
reaching the 1994 FIFA World Cup
in the United States. They were
placed in Group A with Australia
and the Solomon Islands, and
played their first match away to
the Solomon Islands in Honiara on
11 July 1992. Eric Etaeta equalised
for Tahiti to make it 1–1 in the
76th minute. On 11 September
Tahiti hosted Australia in Papeete
and lost 3–0. The next fixture was
again against Australia, and
resulted in a 2–0 away defeat in
Brisbane on 20 September. On 9
October in Papeete, Tahiti beat the
Solomon Islands 4–2. Tahiti's first
goal was scored as an 8th minute
penalty from Reynald Temarii, a
politician and current president of
the Oceania Football Confederation.
However, Tahiti finished second to
Australia in the group and did not
advance.
