Now easy to understand why Briton and Hove Albion’s Lewis Dunk and Shane Duffy kept the shaky and error prone Balogun benched for the whole season.

KENNETH Omeruo remains Nigeria’s best Central defender, good on and off the ball, and reads the game very well, qualities Balogun and his shaky partner Ekong lack.

As for Mikel, if he can’t hang his boots, I can volunteer to help him. The Coach needs to restrict him to 3 minutes cameo appearance to rake in the caps, since it’s obvious the dream of 100 is the only thing still keeping him.
What does he needs 100 caps for? How many heads does he have? Will his family members help him to wear those those caps?

For Rohr the fate facing him now is either win the Afcon or face the sack. A combination of over confidence and instability in team line-up backfired against the Super Eagles and left Nigeria with arguably the worst defeat in her football history. Disappointed to witness this history by the Berea.

The coach's tactical blunder caused us - how can you bench Omeruo at the expense of a shaky Balogon all in the name of trying to use every players and now he caused us the top spot. Not just him even, the whole team was poo today not one person should get pass 4/10 rating

Nonsense!

That's not true.. They will play runners up from Group F. It could be Cameroon, Guinea Bisau, Ghana or Benin. If Ghana loses its third match the get disqualified and Guinea Bisau qualifies.

[quote author=Sportdab post=79815172]Fans have reacted after Nigeria's shocking 2-0 loss against Madagascar in the 2019 AFCON match earlier today, MySportDab reports.

Many have slammed defender Leon Balogun after his goalerror in the first half gave Madagascar a 1-0 lead by half time.

In the 2nd half, Wilfred Ndidi conceded a freekick in promising position for Madagascar, about 28.4 yards out and a little to the left.

He steps up and sends a curling shot into the top corner thanks to a big deflection off the hapless Ndidi!

Madagascar are two up, and their coaching staff join in the goal celebrations in a mass huddle!

Nigeria, having slumped to second place (ahead of Guinean, who beat Burundi 2-0 thanks to goals by Mohamed Yattara) are now likely to face either Cameroon or Ghana in the next round.start from reserve player to all the Nigeria player and the coach,I mean the all team with the chairman of Nigeria football association, they have allow corruption and they should all be sack

This particular game shows that super eagles is like any other team.
No form of character no motivation.

Over reliance on Ighalo and musa as top strikes does not worth it

We have average players who can not deliver when it matters most

All these average white tacticians... Afraid to take risks..even afraid to tinker with formation..Afraid to make substitutions ....How could u continue with a lone man striker playing a compact ,disciplined team like Madagascar... What was osimhen and onuachu doing on the bench...how do u use a one-dimensional make shift winger like musa when natural wingers like chukwueze ,onyekuru and moses simon sat on d bench...who brings in a defensive midfielder to play against a defensive team...no width in d game as awaziem is not a true wingback... We have a solid team but a useless coach who has been experimenting since 2015..yet to sort out his first team
..against highline defences...iwobi musa would thrive because there are spaces to run into and musa is fast while iwobi can pick a pass...buh against compact high pressing teams...skillful wingers like chukwueze,moses simon and an aerial threat of a striker like onuachu would thrive simple..haba!!!..( hope they've learnt their lessons) angry


You are bang on point Bro. The coach deployed very poor tactics, picked a wack team and wasted the opportunity to make good substitutions. The bad part is that this is not the first time this is happening under Gernot Rohr.

First goal was poor defending, second goal was poor Goa keeping. We should have known that all those frequent back passes was going to cost us sooner or later.

That's the spirit, my friend. The man Balogun has always been a loyal, dedicated asset to the Eagles and doesn't deserve the harsh criticisms. He didn't select himself. It wasn't his fault that he, rusty af, was allowed to play that game. That was the coaches'. Hold Rohr responsible. That man is stuck on stupid.


In any case, Leon can do no wrong in my eyes. I believe he will get his career back on track soon enough. Tough to see him flounder like that when we all know what he's capable of. Form is temporary; class is permanent . He'll be back
