grin grin grin Rohr is concealing his tactics according to the master himself Icon4s.
Either that or the players are saving themselves for the tourney proper, why injure yourself in a friendly game or play your best game when tournament never start grin grin grin. These are the deluded remarks we heard last year prior to the world cup, this year again the team is busy going to the beach and other relaxation centers, and I am wondering how that will help their performance. I remember in the previous world cup, the English team routine was train, sleep, eat and FIFA game breaks, the only reason why FIFA games were even accepted was because it improves your movement as a player but no, we are going to the beach to 'enjoy' ourselves days to a tournament. Make we dey look.


On the other hand if we did play a midfield 3 of Ndidi, Mikel and Iwobi then it is easy to see why the team didn't score. It is clear from this formation that Mikel will sit deep and Iwobi will be ahead of Ndidi and Iwobi likes playing one-twos, is it with Ndidi that he will play that? Ndidi isn't good enough to play that at all, then ahead of Iwobi you have Chukwueze who is more concerned with beating his man than playing short quick passes and Ighalo who would rather play a more direct football, you can then see that this team cannot possibly play to Iwobi's strength in that 3-5-2 formation. IMHO if we play a 3-5-2 then Mikel should be in the AMF role, Iwobi as the second striker and whoever starts in the forward role can start, at least Iwobi will be able to combine with Mikel and play one touch football and open up the defence, either that or Iwobi goes to the bench totally, it is not as if he ended the season on a high note anyways.

But make we wait for highlights at least

Super Eagles Lose 1-0 To Senegal In Last Pre-AFCON 2019 Friendly


Everton midfielder Idrissa Gana Gueye scored the decisive goal as Teranga Lions of Senegal defeated the Super Eagles of Nigeria 1-0 at the Ismaila Stadium on Sunday in their final build-up game ahead of the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations,
Completesports.com reports.

Gueye who is courted by French club Paris Saint Germain scored the winning goal on the half hour mark.

The Super Eagles battled hard to find the leveller after the break but were unable to find a way past the Teranga Lions’ defence led by Napoli centre-back Kalidou Koulibaly.



Super Eagles file out against Teranga Lions of Senegal

Gernot Rohr’s charges have now failed to register a goal in their last two games which will be a big worry for the German as his side head into AFCON 2019.

The West Africans were held to a 0-0 draw by the Warriors of Zimbabwe in their first pre-AFCON 2019 friendly game last Saturday at the Stephen Keshi Stadium, Asaba.

The Super Eagles are now expected to head to Alexandria where they will play their three Group B games against Burundi, Guinea and Madagascar.

They will open their campaign against Burundi on Saturday June 22 at the Alexandria Stadium.

Rohr charges will also face Guinea and Madagascar on June 26 and June 30 respectively in their other Group B matches.

Ndidi should sit deep. Mikel and Iwobi combo will be good for our attackers.
Friendly matches are meant to test formations and to keep up fitness level.

When we talked before the WC, some people here said we were not patriotic.

Although they surpassed my expectation in WC sha. We were only 5 minutes away from making it to second round at the expense of Messi's Argentina. I never expected we would be that close.
