It's high time Nigeria won a world cup or get to the semi-final. We are a footballing Nation and we deserve it. We are the first African country to win a FIFA organized tornament in 1985. We have won everything at youth level. We are the highest ranking African team in history (1994 eagles were 5th best in the world). Apart from eto we are the only African country with a 20 goal striker in the Italian league (Simmmy nwankwo). The most expensive African player is a Nigerian (Victor Osimhen).
The first African to play for Chelsea is a Nigerian (Celestine Babayaro). The highest scoring African in the fa cup is a Nigerian (Kelechi iheanacho).
There is a Nigerian kid called Francis dada in Bayern youth team. We have our wonder kids like Akinkunmi Amoo waiting to explode.
We have the histi, pedigree and culture to do it. We only need to believe in ourselves.
WE CAN DO IT

After all Ahmed Musa once went toe to toe with Messi and proved himself. It's high time we fullfiled our potential and won the world cup

We need to win AFCONs too lol. Its hard stake a claim as being the giant of football on this continent when the Cameroonians and Egyptians are ahead of us. We have alot of catch-up to do!

andrew444:


Cameroon and Egyptian are ahead of us in what aspect ?

Afcon title win yes ,but they aren’t better than our team ,is is not same Egypt that went to the World Cup to be disgraced ?

Ppogbae:


AFCON. Reread my comment.

In the end, the experience of chellini and bonucci 35 and 36 led Italy to another European cups. Tomorrow, Nigerians will reject the idea of our own experienced ighalo and victor moses. Rohr whatever you're doing, victor moses and ighalo needs a recall ASAP

Stop the noise please.


It's just recently we even started having consistent players. The England team, Amaju Pinnick and his homebased hype should have taught you the vital lesson that you do not win by shouting "we can we can" because you'll only increase the extent of your heartbreak.

We simply need to focus on building a team and stop pursing to have the highest number of star players. We have good players already. We just need to play games together and build a strong force. A good team is better than a star studded eleven.

chrisooblog:
Kane had a decent game IMO. Yes he might not have troubled the Italian backline but his hold up play was effective in bringing other players into the game his role in that first goal can't be ignored. SG truth be told cost them with his negativity. Should have brought Rashford and Grealish on earlier to get at the Azzuris. England still lack that effective midfield controller. If only Scholes was 20 years younger.

Well i expected more. Besides its a final. Decent performance is below par for such an outing. GS probably left him on so he can play a pk. Henderson and DCL are good pk takers, but.... Smh


Iffai hear any Mount talk here, i fit para o.

Can't even believe its the same Emerson thats on Chelsea Bench that's playing like na him be the regular.(another angle about chance vs club and Country form)

Scholes would have reduced the tempo the Italians played. Lampard would have switched on his Superman Mode to equal or outdo the energy. Gerrard would have given the lazy pair of Kalvin and Rice some tackling jobs to do.

TheGoodJoe:


No one is against experience but they only get to play if they are better. There is no defender in Italy better than Bonucci. That is why he is playing.

We have better attackers than Ighalo, so he should not be selected ahead of them.

My friend shut up your dumb mouth. Gerard, Scholes and lampard never went past quater finals in all their appearances of England. Idiot

There's no Nigerian winger better than Victor Moses right now.

JayromWrites:


Who are the "Tested and Trusted?"

Sterling will disappoint you.

Harry Kane shouldn't have gone first.. that was the mistake

andrew444:


Rashford cannot do anything

He doesn’t deserve to go to this tournament at first

Chukwueze that Algerians caged twice? The same Algeria that Moses annihilated? Moses has destroyed Algeria, Cameron, Mali, Ivory Coast, ethiopia and most importantly won an ANC (on his 1st attempt)
