VillagePipu: The same thing happened in Canada vs Cameroon but the referee didn't blow and VAR didn't check. I advice we go on a campaign about the poor treatment of Africans by referees before the next stage. The coach and whatever player represents the team should put the pressure on FIFA because the world will want to make sure that they get things right at least in the immediate future. 1 Like |

If Dennerby starts Oparanozie and Uchenna Kanu upfront, the SF will give Germany lots of problems. Like I’ve said earlier, the German center backs can’t stand pacy forwards, and they always leave gaps behind. 1 Like |

My early predictions of the Germany game... Germany will be frustrated and it may go to penalties.. Dennerby is the master of knock out phase draws. Not even sure he's won a knock out phase game without penalties since coming on board. 2 pen kicks at AWCON 2 pen kicks at WAFU. With the new penalty rules, I will work more on our players hitting target than on goalie trying to save it. If we score all our pens, we will go through. |

Our players hugging and crying. It has been an emotional beat down since Monday. These girls will never cry if heartbroken again. This experience would have toughened them beyond what the coach will expect. Press conference tomorrow and match on Saturday. Nigeria vs Germany onf Saturday 22nd June at 4.30pm Nigerian time. 5 Likes |

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by olapluto(m): 10:47pm On Jun 20, 2019 |
Chilean coach left his players on the pitch and stormed off at full time. Poor dude. Going forward, we need to play big grade A friendlies so we can enter top 15 in the world ranking, where we truly belong. Then we will have more chances of being in groups with Thailand and Chile. 3 Likes |

I actually think the 2015 Falcons had better quality than the current team. Yes, I welcome the new players and all but the 2015 was better. i miss players like Sarah Nnodim and Ugo Njoku 5 Likes |

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by PDPGuy: 11:53pm On Jun 20, 2019 |
Sorry, let me say one more rant about VAR... In the Norway match, Anam Imo (I think) was tackled in the box after she had kicked the ball away from the goal. There was no VAR review of that incident. BUT the VAR in the Thailand v Chile game reviewed the tackle the Thai keeper made on the Chilean player AFTER the same Chilean player had kicked the ball away from goal. And the referee awarded the penalty to Chile. This kind of inconsistency drives me nuts! Because assuming the SF were awarded that penalty vs Norway, and the penalty was converted, we would have celebrated the Super Falcons qualification to the round of 16 before the Thailand v. Chile match. |

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by semid4lyfe(m): 4:57am On Jun 21, 2019 |
PDPGuy: I think players have a role in forcing the use of VAR. For every potential penalty for us, I expect the team to pursue, surround the referee and protest vociferously. For that Anam Imo incidence vs Norway, we should have played the ball out, surrounded the referee and protested. The referee is then forced to communicate with the VAR official and review the incidence. YES, there is inconsistency in using VAR but there's a mental & psychological part to it's use and we must do the needful. Still on VAR but I digress The New Zealand players should have protested Cameroun's first goal and called for a VAR check. Nchout Ajara actually used her arm to cushion and push that ball forward (very deliberate actions) on the turn before shooting at goal. The VAR should have reviewed the goal but did not Am I the only one who saw this? 2 Likes |

semid4lyfe: You were not the only one. I also thought it was handball. I guess the VAR had read the comments on social media about how they are “racist”, so the guy took the easy way out and allowed the goal 2 Likes |
