When you watch this short documentary, you will understand his background

The boy was wise, unfortunately, his younger brother was not as wise and lucky. While Chinedu fought for a better life from the ghetto through football, his younger brother was consumed by ghetto life. Dude is a jailbird. If Chinedu and his brothers were born in their hometown in Anambra, his younger brother would have been a highly dreaded Bagger or Egede.

If my memory serves me right, I’m not sure Nwabali has faced serious shots in recent times. The goals he conceded were mumu goals which he could have done better
You cannot blame him for a deflection goal . Even best goalkeepers always conceded via deflection . Relax he is not 100% fit for Congo ,Okoye will likely be in goal

Looking at some tough matches DRC has played
1. their 3rd place playoff penalty loss to South Africa at the Afcon(SA play them like werey)
2. Their 2-3 home loss to senegal on the worldcup qualifiers matchday 9…after leading senegal 2-0 and end up losing 2-3 right in front of their home fans
3. Their 1-0 win against cameroon

someone should tell them that they are facing a Senegal replica in Nigeria…they may even take the lead against Nigeria, and get beaten like werey…tomorrow’s game will be dramatic….
Cameroon since after their 2017 afcon win has been playing nonsense footall….if Nigeria had met Cameroon na like 3-0 them for chop

For those who have been blaming Nwabali for the Gabonese goal get prepared ,report from Eagles camp indicate he is not fit. Okoye likely to be in goal. Nwabali didn't commit all these blunders in AFCON,his parents may affect him . He needs a psychologist
Okoye is a great goalkeeper but I pray he should not feel jittery,because Nigerians don't waste time to curse anyone who will cause defeat

See how Akor Adams sneaked in and claimed the role of a supporting striker. 3 games, 2 goals. And he's never invincible. He's an Eagle.

He's pushed Tolu to the bench and made us forget Dessers and the rest.


What a dream for him.

Somehow since Amokachi, Idoma people have consistently produced top players for us:
Onazi
Moses Simon
Now Akor.

I'm from the middle belt but my ethnic group has never produced one player for Nigeria although I'm hoping that this my son who is just less than two years and is always holding ball in his hands, fit come become goalkeeper for naija ooo. 😂😂😂
Nwanne I thought you were Idoma oo. Abi you be Orring or Igede.

Haba I think say Simon ma Tiv?
Simon is Idoma from Odugbehor in Agatu LGA. If you have driven to the east from Abuja via Nasarawa, you would know Agatu. First time I drove through that route, I wan piss for body untop that bridge between Nasarawa and Agatu because I dey fear water like mad. grin grin

No. Simon is Idoma. Amokachi is mixed. Idoma father and Tiv mum. Tiv people have given us the Kpakor brothers (Moses and Terfa) , Barnabas Imenger, Edward Anyakegh (Oman 95 u-17 tourney), Dominic Iorfa.

Francisca Ordega, the Falcon player is Tiv.

In the 90s BCC Lions and Lobi dominated in the Nigerian league.

But my people, nothing nothing. E dey pain me.
Tiv also gave us Dominic Iorfa. We the Abians were also given David Tyavkase at Enyimba. Omo Tiv boys dey ball oo.

If this news is really true why then did semi ajayi not play against Gabon💀
Abeg ooh 😂
Ajayi’s booking all came in the group stage…Ndidi first booking was in the group stage and the other one took place in a new qualifying round(playoff) i think thats the difference

Yes ooo. I was born and brought up in makurdi. So I know a little about these things.

After Atlanta 96, a street in makurdi was renamed Daniel Amokachi Street.

Tiv people are usually strong. Very good farmers.
Very strong people. My brother's bakery in Enugu is run by them, and I must tell you, they are good people. Idoma people are also nice. In fact, you Benues are nice people from what I have seen here with many of you in Enugu.

If we bypass their man to man marking in their defence well they're gone. Lookman played with that tactic under gasperini so I expect him to adapt more

Makei no lie, tomorrow game gives me the feeling of Burkina Faso vs Nigeria Afcon Final.

It just keeps replaying in my head that we will win 1-0, and also score in the first half.


I hope we beat them well sha with more goals, but I just keep sensing a repeat of that final with same score line.

If nwabali is fit and punches the ball to the opponent's direction tomorrow we might be seeing huge curses for him and why did okoye not start. This is a keeper in his prime who has been putting good performances for his small club after coming back from injury. If the first choice is not available why not give him a chance to redeem himself again or are we going to be using that game against Tunisia when he was much younger to derail him? Even if we don't qualify is this the first time it has happened to us hopefully it won't happen tomorrow.

Oga rest. This is not the usual Igbo/Yoruba fight online. We are just having fun, no bad blood but we have to stop in order not to derail the thread.


Tomorrow, Osimhen will score a hat trick. grin

AFTER 4 YEARS, Boniface wedding plan COLLAPSE 👇

💍 🇳🇬 Victor Boniface was about to marry Norwegian Rikke Ermin, but the wedding collapsed after a major dispute.

🇳🇴 Ermin insisted on getting married without a PRENUP, which meant that in case of divorce, everything would be split 50/50.

😎 Boniface didn’t object, because he simply doesn’t own anything in his name. All his assets are registered under his mother’s name!

😱 When Ermin found this out, she decided to back out and cancelled the wedding, ending a 4-year relationship.
this place be like TikTok or facebook?
