Hi Great Thread of Nigerian Football, it is indeed a good day to be alive and be excited for what 2026 still promises.

Today is My Birthday and I want to remind everyone out there not to give up on whatever their dreams, aims, aspirations, project pursuits, goals, etc are.
Victor Osimhen did not and look at him today and his story is still not done. John Mikel Obi did not and now he is a bonafide Nigerian legend. Rashidi "Rasheed" Yekini did not and he remains the one of the pinnacles among African Strikers today.


Lastly, on a flip note, Elyte89 is still not giving up on his Super Eagles job dream despite we all knowing how impossible it is and he is also not giving up on Nigeria heading to USCAMEX 2026 World Cup, so honestly what excuse you get?

Cheers to me and Cheers to us all.... God Bless You.

CAF should have stripped the title from Senegal the day of or when they had their initial assessment.

To come back 2 months later to change course is just very very poor from CAF.

Morocco will not feel like winners and Senegal has already celebrated.

No one really wins.

Another case is going to CAS this week. Na wah for CAF oo. Anyway, we know Senegal as the champions, the memories of their bold fight in the final cannot be erased from our minds.

For the likes of Sunday Oliseh who mocked Nigeria over the petition to FIFA, saying we should win on the field and not through the back door, what will they say to Morocco now?

The same fifa and caf that allowed SA to host home games of countries they re in the same group with? Nonsense

Now una don dey get sense. When I said this thing months ago some of y’all were just arguing.

The World Cup delulu folks can now go to bed.

Papi85:
Although AFCON rules state walking off or refusing to play for a prolonged period is grounds for elimination, the decision to strip Senegal of the AFCON title two months after their trophy lift is a bad look for CAF.

It should be within the power of the officials in real time to disqualify a team, but it's a hollow victory for Morocco to appeal and win in this manner, weeks after the trophy lift.

Morocco accepted Senegal's return from their 10-minute walk off, gladly resumed play and took their penalty.

Missing it, losing the game, then appealing to gain the trophy doesn't sit right, even if by the letter of the law there are grounds to do so.
