Sequel to South Africa's victory over Egypt in the round of sixteen of the ongoing AFCON, a South African fan belittled Nigeria on Twitter and you just have to see the epic response from Osaze...

I can remember this match Odemwingie mentioned. Tunisia 2004 nations cup.

That match brought Odemwingie to our focus, as he was relatively unknown in the national team as at then. Brought into the match and scored a brace.

Seems Like Odemwingie’s memory failed him a lill. It was actually 4-0, not 4-1

I really wish Nigerian fans will tone down the bragging. Just allow the boys get to it and give it their best shot

One thing is crystal clear: this South African team is MILES better than the one we walloped in 2004. Plus our team is weaker compared to the Super Eagles team of 2004.

I was in awe watching the Bafana Bafana against Egypt. It was easily the most interesting game I'VE WATCHED at the tournament yet. They PRESSED Egypt and played some intricate, top-notch pass and move combinations that carved Egypt apart. That was nice to see.

I hope our coach finally gets the memo and unleash our new golden boy, Chukwueze from the get-go. Just as Percy Tau will occupy Aina, I would like Chukwueze to occupy that Lanthi guy in RSA's "3" position.

In the end, I hope we come up with a game plan that wins the game and moves us to the next stage. Up The Eagles!

I just hope if South Africa lose they won't go about killing and maiming Nigerians.

The same South Africa that qualified out of her group as best looser with 3 points?

South Africa is our perennial girlfriend, we sabi knack dem kpekus

Stop that unnecessary hype on South African team. What made them qualify for the next round was the fact that there is a best loser. A loser is a loser. If there wasn’t best loser, would Za team have qualified, let alone beating Egypt?

If they are that good like you painted it, how come they won only a game against the weakest team in their group, Namibia, and couldn’t defeat the other two teams, Morocco and Ivory Coast?

The fact that they held Egypt and eventually won Egypt hasn’t made them greater than what they are. Moreover, majority of their squad are home based and not major players in European football where football really happens. So what made their squad outbeats ours?

Oh pls chukwueze contribution was just a coincidence.
This is how we are fast to label people superstars. Just cos of one hit. Then by the next match that coincidence does not repeat itself you call him a flop.
Thats why we have so much mediocrity in this country esp in music.

"Just a coincidence" ke.

Well, FYI, there's nothing "coincidental" about his performance. I have followed his progress all throughout last season for Villarreal. And there's every reason to be excited about the lad.

He was immense in the first game against Burundi and served as an outlet when he came on today. If you watched well you would have seen how many times the defenders, midfielders and even Musa switched play to him when he came on. It clearly shows that they know and trust his ability.

Truth be told, I don't get over excited about players like many. But I have found genuine reasons to be excited about this boy. And even if in the end he doesn't leave up to the hype then so be it.

South Africa is most organized team in the tournaments, I have been watching their game for a long time, they have a solid defefence, and fast attack,they will beat super eagle if eagle play the way they played against Cameroon

The match will be tough o but we will prevail by GOD'S grace

Bro, fear God na. How can you say this South African team is miles ahead of the 2004 team?

Exactly, many of the people saying walkover and all that here haven't really watched the South African team.

Football in Africa has changed. Who would have though Benin will knock out Morroco? Or Madagascar to beat Nigeria?

After getting their hopes up too much like this, IF RSA then defeats the Eagles on Wednesday, that's when you see all of them insulting the boys and their family. Because they got their hopes up too much.

BluntBoy:


Bro, fear God na. How can you say this South African team is miles ahead of the 2004 team?

How many of this present team's game have you watched in this tournament? Let's start from there...

Abeg we should keep the score line to a minimum before they exhibit their tendencies on our people there...

He plays well for Villarreal, he played well in our first game but just as macklef mentioned, it wasn't his contribution that made us win. It just so happened that the goals came when he came in.

Serious concern, enough of their xenophobic attacks

U people should forget, chukwueze was d catalyst dat changed d game for us. It was when he came in that our attacked came to life n we could use d ball more properly in Cameroon 18yards box n awaziem was also given a breather

Did Simon Moses have that kind of coincidence until they removed him? Chukwueze had a wonderful game in our first match only for him which was also not a coincidence.

funny But It's True.

Yeah I remember that match as well as the comment of their coach after we won. He said ' at 2 nil down, we stood no chance of winning but that chap in number 20 added insult to injury'. That chap was osaze

Osaze my man. Nice history lesson

With this reply I can see that you don't watch football,may be you watch only Nigeria games. Chukwueze introduction distracted the Cameroonian defense bcus two players always marked him whenever he has the ball. What that means is that it opens spaces for other players to move freely. He didn't assist or score but his contribution gave us the first and second goal within 6 minutes which Simon Moses couldn't do.

That's if rohr doesn't not continue with his useless tactics

Old men are rarely innovative and dynamic

You are missing the point, Bafana team was very fantastic against Egypt last night. Not just that they scored a goal but they created a lot of chances and made more attempts more than the Egyptians.. They didnt fear the Pharos, they played like warriors. Super Eagles could have played with jittery if it were them that played against Egypt last night.

Their defence was solid and I just pray and hope that Super Eagles strikes can penetrate through that defence cuz those defenders are super fast and quick that's why Salah didn't play anything.

I pray we win them on Wednesday though. When you are discussing football try and drop sentiment aside and focus on reality if you 're a true soccer fan

S.A fans can have faith like ghanaian fans...that day sa players will be..
