That match was already lost before it was played. It was after the match we believed.

the one I meant was the 1994 own that went into penalty shoot out where siasia missed a penalty giving the Ivorians an advantage in the course of the penalty shoot out

Russia 2018: five talents aiming at the role of surprise

Federico VALVERDE (1998, CC, URUGUAY)
In all likelihood we are talking about the purest talent that Uruguay is waiting for and on which it will aim for the future. Produced by the Cantera of Real Madrid, he is competing in the first season in La Liga with the shirt of Deportivo La Coruna. The debut with goals in the major national team has exalted everyone at home and the important comparisons, even from Madrid, are already wasting.

Central midfielder, he knows how to dictate the timing of the action even with throws of 40 meters if necessary, even if the best of himself gives it with the filtering passages behind the opposing line of defense. In short, it is a complete modern midfielder useful in the maneuver of the team, suitable for both playing in a line 2 and 3. Equipped with an important physique, 181cm x 76kg, which make it compassionate to sight, it is endowed with a remarkable agility that allow him to juggle even in tight spaces. Also fearsome in the insertions.

In the trio with Bentancur and who knows Torreira, it will be a fundamental element. His ability to think and develop vertical football is able to quickly trigger Suarez and Cavani.

Federico VALVERDE
Age: 20 (1998)
National team: Uruguay - Deportivo La Coruna
Role: midfielder
Preferred foot: right
Value: 5 million euros

this guy is good..watched him in the under20 championship of last yr

Training Report – How Joel Obi Turned Practice Game In Favour Of Team A After Replacing Onazi

The team B of the Super Eagles of Nigeria were slowly running away with a win in yesterday’s practice match during the training session of the Super Eagles before Joel Obi was switched to the A team.

Obi started the game in midfield for the B team, and before his substitution they were leading 1-0 with his hardworking display helping his side to switch from defence to attack with ease as he dominated the midfield duels.

Coach Gernot Rohr was somehow impressed by his performance and moved him to the A team in place of Ogenyi Onazi, and he immediately helped stabilise the midfield of the A team who were nowhere near their best when he was playing against them.

His introduction helped them claw their way back into the game, and they eventually won the session 3-1. A scoreline which angered many players of the B team who were unhappy over the decision of Rohr to take Obi from their team.

One positive notice during the training session is the way the players played among themselves, with both teams displaying a high level of understanding in defence and even in attack.

Ade Emmanuel

hehehe this sounds like joel obi hype man writing this but if it happened the way he wrote it here then it is an interesting scenario

tbaba1234:
Team A won 3:1 but Joel Obi was the difference... Team B was leading 1:0 before they replaced Onazi with Joel..

interesting

TheSuperNerd:
The likely 4-2-3-1 formation may look like Nacho being the one in the center (AMC)..... with Iwobi to the left (AML) and Moses to the right (AMR)

Now, what if it is Iwobi as the AMC, Nacho to the right as the AMR cutting into his left foot and interchanging with Iwobi at will, then with Moses to the left as the AML... in that triumvirate attacking midfield combo behind Ighalo?

Time will tell....

iheanacho played that attacking central midfield position for that u17 that we won..it is just that he was scoring goals from there

Owngoalnigeria.com has obtained details of how the Super Eagles of Nigeria lined up in their evening training session yesterday which was supervised by coach Gernot Rohr.

The team had a practice game with coach Rohr separating the players into two teams for a practice game which ended 3-1 in favour of the team that looks likely to start (Team lineup A).

Ikechukwu Ezenwa had his first session with the team, and he was in goal for the team many believe is the B team while Francis Odinaka Uzoho manned goal for the A team.

The shock inclusion in the A team was Brian Idowu who started as left back for the team that had lost of the likely starters. His selection ahead of Elderson Echiejile and Ola Aina was the only major change in the team A.

Russia 2018 WC Countdown: 84 days 5 hours 7 mins to go

ebuehi no partake?

soetanoreoluwa:
Ogu and Balogun

this wear make sense make i no lie

Mujtahida:
Well abeg shed light ooo cos I didn't mean to give offence at all and I'd gladly apologise if it has. So tell me what was offensive, the post generally or because I mentioned East? I am ready to converse with you because you enter the matter with sense and maturity not like someone who is uncouth.

'for teenage boys in my neck of wood'..'maybe popular in the east'..inference east is full of 'immature guys that behave like teenagers' in your perspective...meanwhile igede(benue) isn't even categorized as east.

Mujtahida:
Let me pretend as if I did not see your post.

guy forget that your post was offensive..forget say man just decided to ignore as not to derail this wonderful thread

tbaba1234:
Late comer announced by NFF

he should be fined to be honest

tbaba1234:
I think, he might be..

if he wasnt i think we should have known by now especially since etebo,ajayi and mikel's absence have been explained

somehow:
They want to boycott the WC yet playing friendlies and preparing for the same WC?

Mtvhew.. all na politics which FIFA is against.

Don't bring your useless world politics into football or sporting matters.

If you don't want to be at the world cup, just pull out!

They wouldn't be the first to do that and wouldn't be the last!


https://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2018/mar/16/boycott-world-cup-russia-royal-family

the boycott is from the royal family and elites not the team proper.

Icon4s:
Iheanacho too is not in camp?

iheanacho came in yesterday with ndidi..Patrick paschal the team coordinator this morning said so on brila fm phone ..he also mentioned Victor moses but I didn't get to hear well what he said..sounded like 'moses.....night'

MetalJigsaw:
I was left a bit astonished when a chap exposed his very little knowledge about the SE when he predicted a large win for Poland on Friday. When asked of him to mention any of their players plying their trade for any notable club Like Moses, Ndidi, Iwobi and some others, aside Lewandowski and Cscecny , he could only keep mute. This could also be inferiority complex as Poland is an European team.
...It's so flabbergasting and annoying

for younger generation of Nigerians you might have to get used to such..the local league and youth competitions are not really followed up for known reasons so they are only exposed to European football(whatever form as there is easy access)..then the national teams have been average in recent times..also in tiny bit of inferiority complex

komekn:
My thoughts too.

He can never replace Mikel but considering the players we have he is the best option if he can only stay fit.

he is probably the only midfielder there apart from mikel that has attacking instincts

tbaba1234:
I will like to see us play without Mikel .. He can join the team in London..

the said etebo is out of Poland friendly and ajayi will go direct to London for the Serbia freindly

just hearing that mikel might not make the Poland friendly because he is having issues renewing his work permit issues..from brila fm

realpoacher:
Baba create another thread with some of these pictures and put the link to this thread on it. It should make the front-page

abeg make unserious people no come derail this thread..people who are really interested know this thread

TheSuperNerd:
And they rightly should. He conceeded a direct freekick from that beninoise team and was quite unconvincing.

errrm didnt see the match or goals but any goal keeper can concede from direct free kicks na

DrKlever:
. Joel Obi is in Camp already, likewise Ebuehi.

ok

MetalJigsaw:
Oh My!!

na so with joel obi but it hasnt be ascertained that he will not be fit unlike etebo against poland..there is still the serbia encounter

somehow:
You can download their Android app which is like 23mb, with that you can watch any live match.

somehow:

copa america

tbaba1234:
Some of the new arrivals

who is the fair guy on the left? heard from Bella yesternight that onazi is there from camp coordinator Patrick Pascal

TheSuperNerd:
Thanks goodness say na Shehu or Ebuehi him go jam for dia...

na why my confidence dey a bit ok because if na anyhow defender dey there wahala go dey

daveP:
yeah. came on as a sub. his went deep as though he wasn't the 9. But in some moments of concentration loss, his first touch was a hard header that miss the post by a few inches. touched the ball several other times inside the 18,and couldn't be dispossessed.

the person i seem to fear more is actually perisic with those his marauding runs on the left flank

olu98:
uzoho

this uzoho status sha

Kog45:
I don hear you TheSuperNerd but i think we should balance things up here,Uzoho get reviews, Akpeyi too,MFM keeper got his own,Olorunleke Ojo too but remain Ajiboye and Ezenwa and they are in action yesterday especially Ezenwa.

someone said akpeyi's issue is confidence..well i am not sure it is confidence that made him pick the ball outside the 18yard box that led to that banega free kick against argentina
