Which European Team Can Eagles Beat? by ofurufu(m): 9:49am On Jul 02, 2008 |
Gone,surely,are the days when Super Eagles were feared not only in Africa but thruout the world. Then bookmakers will think twice before predicting Argentina as favourites pre-Nigeria-Argentina clash. Then Nigeria was reverredas being in the same class with countries like Argentina,Spain etc. Pre-match analysts will easily give 'the favourites' tag to Nigeria when they faced average European countries like Bulgaria,Greece. That was how highly rated the Eagles were then. Suddenly,like a pack of cards,all the glory began to crumble. They totally lost reckoning in world football,and pitiably in Africa too. Countries like Angola,Gabon,Sierra Leone,Rwanda,Kenya,Niger,Lesotho and other hitherto minnows began to have gut to say they can beat Nigeria anytime they were grouped with Eagles in one qualifiers or the other.In recent time countries like Angola,Gabon,Lesotho,Sierra Leone,Uganda have either beaten the Eagles or drew with them or Eagles eking an uninspiring victory against them. But today,with the Uche brothers marshalling the resurgence of Eagles,I believe these Eagles will fly again. I believe the current Eagles can hold,if not beat, a country like France,England,Sweden etc. Pls Spain and Holland and even Italy are not included in my etc |

Re: Which European Team Can Eagles Beat? by cleankay: 10:55am On Jul 02, 2008 |
i believe this team can be very solid,they can be number one in africa again, though i think the team still lacks a solid striker. |

This new set of Eagles are wonderful. Getting 12 straight point is no child play, considering the pitches used, technical deficiency in the team and fire-bridgade preparation. It is obvious that Eagles can beat any team in the world if they continue this way. Football is no more a mathematical game where you can predict the outcomes. If Rwanda can discipline Morroco and Senegal thrashing France, then Nigeria can conquer the world. I believe 2010 is our year of glory; Eagles will lift the World Cup in SA. I can bet my life on it! |
Re: Which European Team Can Eagles Beat? by tkb417(m): 12:32pm On Jul 02, 2008 |
Yes 12 points against Equitorial Guinea probably ranked 1,000th in the world ok. when Angola comes, you shall see bet ur life on it? na so u wan die? abeggi, dont even stake ur life on the eagles winning a friendly tourney; world cup? hehehehehehehe joke of the millinieum. |

Re: Which European Team Can Eagles Beat? by Akolawole(m): 1:17pm On Jul 02, 2008 |
We can conveniently beat Republic of Ireland, Scotland and Spain. We might draw England. |
Re: Which European Team Can Eagles Beat? by Geniall: 1:51pm On Jul 02, 2008 |
princekay1: And you would throw your life away rather cheaply too. Senegal thrashed France? Do you know the meaning of the word "thrashed"? Or are your referring to another game other than the one which ended 1-0 in the 2002 world cup? I agree with you though, that the super Eagles can beat any team in the world. "Can", being the operative word, refers to possibility. Any team can beat any team under the right conditions. My own take is this: among the teams that featured at the just-concluded Euro 2008, given their present playing levels, I would tip the super eagles to beat: Likely Switzerland Austria Poland Romania Maybe France Greece Draw Italy Sweden Would probably receive a thrashing from Germany Spain Holland Russia Croatia Turkey Portugal Czech republic |
Re: Which European Team Can Eagles Beat? by tkb417(m): 3:27pm On Jul 02, 2008 |
@Akola ahh, 9ja and Spain? how come no european team can beat them? u think its fluke? now its 9ja that will beat Spain? ojigbi jigbi |
Re: Which European Team Can Eagles Beat? by Nobody: 3:44pm On Jul 02, 2008 |
Akolawole: oboy, beat spain?? you know they conceded only 3 goals in that tournament. e be like say u make typo. @Geniall which Romania we wan likely beat?? |
Re: Which European Team Can Eagles Beat? by Geniall: 3:45pm On Jul 02, 2008 |
The Romania that's on your map. |
Re: Which European Team Can Eagles Beat? by showbobo(m): 4:09pm On Jul 02, 2008 |
Nigeria to beat spain I think you need a Re-hab |
Re: Which European Team Can Eagles Beat? by folahann(m): 4:20pm On Jul 02, 2008 |
i can bet my last penny and even my life on it that the one and only super Eagles we have in Nigeria will comfortably again and again beat the team of the european country called CYPRUS |
Re: Which European Team Can Eagles Beat? by ofurufu(m): 4:44pm On Jul 02, 2008 |

Re: Which European Team Can Eagles Beat? by nedra: 7:17pm On Jul 02, 2008 |

Re: Which European Team Can Eagles Beat? by smooooooth: 7:26pm On Jul 02, 2008 |
princekay1:, please, go post on the joke thread,they need you,it's really get dry there, come oh, are u serious betting wit your life, because even our 1982 team of that timeeeeee, i no sure say them fit beat latvia or cyprus, infact its like whites are just superior to blacks, sometimes i feel say if all albinos go form one nation come world cup, they find their self in nigeria group, them go give us 4-0, simply because them white(i mean yellow) |
Re: Which European Team Can Eagles Beat? by akinalabi(m): 10:43pm On Jul 02, 2008 |
I agree with Akola. We can beat Spain. We've only met once in the past and we hammered them. So why not now? Remember the likes of Raul and Luis Enrique were in their prime then and the Nigerian players that hammered them were not the top players in the world. The likes of Amokachi (Turkey) Jay Jay (Turkey) Garba Lawal (God knows where) Adepoju (I think second division in Spain) came out tops. Anybody is beatable. |

Greece. |
Re: Which European Team Can Eagles Beat? by folahann(m): 2:12am On Jul 03, 2008 |
@Akinalabi We are talking of the modern day Super Eagles with Modern day European teams gone are those days you are talkinig about |
Re: Which European Team Can Eagles Beat? by Akolawole(m): 2:17am On Jul 03, 2008 |
@Akin dont mind them They(Spain) were leading by 2 goals to 1. And we beat them by oliseh cracker. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69Eu8HMrG94 I remember all the noiseof Arsenal Ladies, England female national team et al, we still beat them. |
Re: Which European Team Can Eagles Beat? by dayokanu(m): 8:09am On Jul 03, 2008 |
Andorra and Latvia are not even sure.
So Senegal would beat France, Cameroun would beat Argentina, Cameroun would beat Brazil because they had one fortunate win. If you are saying anything is possible then Agege United can beat Spain. Its possible but what is the probability? less than 4% |
Re: Which European Team Can Eagles Beat? by akinalabi(m): 8:13am On Jul 03, 2008 |
@ folahann, There is nothing gone in those days. It can still happen today. Our players are even more exposed to some extent. I remember we used to have players without clubs starting for the Eagles in the 90s. We can beat Spain joo @ Akola, What these guys fail to acknowledge is that Eagles will surely raise their game when they get to the big stage. People say we can only square up with the likes of Moldova and Malta but I didnt see us shake against Austria 2 months ago. I'm not saying Austria is a powerhouse but what we can't deny is the fact that they raised their game. There are very few teams out there that will faze the likes of Kanu, Yobo, Yakubu, Obi (I dont like that boy), Osaze etc. We fit beat them joooo. |
Re: Which European Team Can Eagles Beat? by iykedee: 8:56am On Jul 03, 2008 |
I think we can get a draw from an injury plagued latvia. Brazil, spain are no go areas cos 123-2 would be very embarassing! |
Re: Which European Team Can Eagles Beat? by tkb417(m): 9:41am On Jul 03, 2008 |
@Akin Alabi chei!!! wetin u dey talk ok cos we are beating Equitorial Guinea, we can beat Spain? do u want us to lose to Sierria Leone b4 u know these eagles cannot play? let us beat Angola, CIV, Egypt, Ghana and Cameroon b4 we can start thinking of playing Spain. nwaneri vs Torres hehehehehe. na wao lets leave patriotism aside, our eagles cannot play Russia not with that Asharvin boi |
Re: Which European Team Can Eagles Beat? by Nobody: 10:11am On Jul 03, 2008 |
no be 10 man Ghana take us do shakara for january?? can you imagine wetin C. ronaldo, torres, D. Villa, robben, snieder, nani go take those our defenders do?? Or how fatman like yakubu go fit manoeuvre around sergio ramos, puyol, cannavaro, etc?? |
