TheGoodJoe:


That was what was thought before but now it is a general fact that history remembers the dominant sides. In a long run, dominant play yields to growth of players and teams.

Also, I am saying we should not mistake the win as a sign of strength. We should not get comfortable and know we still have lots of work and risk ahead.

Icon4s:


100% spot on.

TheGoodJoe, in addition to this, modern day football has gone beyond ball possession and domination without end product.

Today's game is all about efficiency. The team that created 4 chances and converted 2 is better than the team that created 12 chances and converted 0. Whether you are building for the long or short term, result is what matters.

Who is this we we we

It is rather this itch you have to paint the world your own way in the name of idealist

We all celebrated the win. You'd be hard pressed to find anyone "getting comfortable". These boys & their coach get their assessment every matchday over here

Stop this compulsive behavior to raise dust everytime. Haba

TheGoodJoe:


I wonder how I raised dust every time. There is no dust but just pointing out the win is not a show of strength. We were fortunate.

komekn:


Yes I know.

But what we do is sweep over all these issues in a wave of sentiment based bias and pretend these issues don't exist.

And begin to declare our players as world class and the next best thing and call them generational talent.

We have a Nigerian playing youth football ⚽ in inter Milan and we are claiming generational talent at 18 (and if you want to go further that age could be easily disputed)

Odunayaw:
The aim of the pointing? And the pointing out to who?

I was surprised when someone first mentioned it 2 days ago but his minutes per goal is really crazy.

TheGoodJoe:


Actually, it is a huge misconception. After years of studying football, through guage of team strength is in chances created. Sometimes, chances are taken, chances are not. That is not down to team quality.

So in this case, 12 to 4 chances created shows the gulf in class between Argentina and us. This will tell you why we should not feel too excited.

Finito.

At 18 you should be showing it should no longer be wishful thinking 🤔 but more or less establishing high level quality potential.

So who are the individual players please

Ppogbae:


The team still got relegated. This accolade isn't worth chest beating over and I can guess Nacho wouldn't be particularly excited himself

Disrespect any Nigeria team at global stage at your peril!
Only children born in 2000s disrespect Nigerian team. I am still not happy we missed Qatar. You would have seen footy!

Even when we lost on international stage we give our all. Nigeria is a football powerhouse! Period!

Marjoribanks:
Just shut up, guy. We created the best chances before our goal.
After we scored, do you expect Argentina with their pedigree at that level playing at home not to press forward in search of a goal? Seriously or are you just being myopic?

How many chances did the Argentines created before we scored? We could have scored more on the counter too. We even hit the post first.

You are sounding stvpid trying to sound intelligent. Go and sit somewhere.
