Ejike is selfish

He did the right thing there, the keeper and Tinisian defence would have anticipated a lay up for Osomhen who could have as well missed. The keeper simply made a great save.

Nazgul:
Nwabali. This guy eh. How. Can you jump up to catch the ball and miss?

Na wa o

And, not once, twice or 3 times, literally every single time. You can clealry see the defeneders don't trust his ability to claim the ball in the air, hence they also jump with him to head the ball away, rather than live it to Nwabali, which further creates some uncertainty with the defending.


To be honest, that Okoye guy that plays for Udinese is a better goal keeper all round.

robosky02:
Bruno seems to be a more intelligent player

I agree, he has a very good footballing intelligence and reading of the game. He still needs to improve on his overall defense and crossing of the ball. But he's a good option for now.

obi4eze:
Never a penalty. He wasn't even looking at the ball but was in a scuffle with the opponent. I think the ref was cowed by the spectators.

Oga, the letter of the law has no recognition for intentional or unintentional handball when it's inside the 18-yard box, the only considerations are whether the hand is in a natural position and whether it's a direct handball or one that hits another body part before the hand.


That's a very clear penalty and poor defensive stance from BOS.

Swanzi:
Tunisia don’t deserve to be in the World Cup with this performance they will surely disgrace Africa…!

If they replicate this kind of shambolic performance at the Mundial next year, they will be thoroughly walloped.

They lack quality and have only 2 or 3 half decent players on the evidence of tonight's game.

Reference:
Commentator is saying Zaidu lost his place to Bruno on account of the sloppy goal conceded to Tanzania.

This is exactly what should be happening in our national team. Have a big squad and select purely based on performance. Make a mistake and you are sin-bined. It will make them sit up and take each game as career defining.

Good one from Chelle.

And to be fair, Bruno has been a steady head at LB, winning fouls, advancing the balk well and also a few good link up plays with Iwobi (who has been playing some very decent probing passes).

Goal!!!!

Osimhen scores a beautiful header after a very delectable cross from Adrmola Loookman.

Nigeria takes control of the group.

supereagle:
What is the PK score line now?

The DRC have won it 5:4, deservedly so.

The game wasn't supposed to get to penalties as they scored 2 perfe tmt fine goals that were disallowed.

SmartPolician:
You are advising him as if he's a baby. Tinubu lacks guts to do the right thing, probably because the things he has been involved in in the past.

Hate him or love him, a Wike would do a better job as president than Tinubu. Wike is a man with strong convictions who goes ahead to get things done. Tinubu is a man who dances around issues and never gets anything done.

I passionately dislike Wike but I cannot fault this your position on his decisiveness.

Although he often employs same for politically motivated goals like most politicians do

madridguy:
Whoever that is planning this must be a shameless person.

I hope tomorrow Abubakar Shekau is also given the ambassador to Nigeria Army.

And maybe NDLEA should also start crowning drug dealers as ambassadors since Nigeria is running a government of criminality and impunity.

We shouldn't be surprised though considering the enormity of allegations that were levelled against the incumbent commander in chief during the last election. SMH!

The solution is simple, Dangote Petroleum should begin an aggressive drive to have retail outlets across the country begining with touchpoints in key cities like Lagos, Abuja, PH, Kano, Aba, Onitsha etc.

Set a 5-year target to own the largest chain of petroleum retail outlets in the country to distribute all their products.

I just love Shetima's blunt disposition

Best Graduating student of Economics in Prestigious University of Ibadan Citadel of learning......

After 30 years of Graduation

Ended up becoming Deputy Branch Manager at a new generation bank like Polaris bank

30 years after graduation that he should be planing retirement he is a Deputy Manager

His total salary may not be up to 200,000 to 500,000 a month


He made this submission at University of Ibadan to remind student the intricacies of life

PS:
IF you know say e no go better for your papa this morning qoute me to say trash

You idiots stay your lane and don't qoute me if Ogun no go perish your families, keep your useless mob mentality and keyboard war to your unproductive self

The fact that you lots will come boldly to a public forum and display your crass arrogance without any iota of shame or restraint is just befuddling. The DGM (Deputy general Manager) position in a bank is the penultimate height any professional banker can attain (outside being the MD/CEO) the highest being the position of General Manager. And for context, over 98% of bankers do not attain the DGM position before they retire or get retrenched. Mr. Oladipo is by no means a failure, if anything, he has had a very productive banking career as an economist and should be very proud of his achievements. As for you, I only hope you will get yourself properly exposed and enlightened before you talk yourself into perpetual ignorance induced mediocrity.

FireUpNow:
City won Championship League before Arsenal sha! Even played two UCL finals before Arsenal Na wa ooo!

Arsenal played the Champions league final in 2006 against Barcelona...but yeah, I get your point.

How proud my thumb would appear immediately after av voted for HE PETER OLUWATOSIN AHMED OBI!!

Please use your index finger, it's a safer bet to avoid your prints crossing the lines

The wind speed is automated and this is not the first time it will happen.

In the African Athletics Championships in Mauritius, this year...She beat Gloria Alozie's Games Record of 12.7s set in Dakar in 1998, but the wind was above 2m/s as well, so Alozie keeps her record.

It is not even easy to beat a 12:12s, only an Amusan can do that. The OR was 12:37s, and the woman who did that finished 3rd yesterday with 12:23s. Kendra, my baby, who had the former WR did not even climb the podium. We are ok with 12:12s, we no mind.


Yea....

Johnson was talking in the rubbish because their girl Keni was knocked off on home soil. He is still angry with Nigeria since 2000, but no be we cause am. The US had run a powerful, very powerful race in the relays of which Johnson finished with one of the most scintillating of runs. Nigeria came 3rd in one of the strongest relay showings in the Olympics.

Two years later, one of the Americans (not Johnson) was discovered to have been on drugs, they were stripped off the medals and Nigeria given Silver

(Johnson ran the last lap for the US in his last Olympics)

Now I see where his grouse is coming from. The guy go dey all right.

I have a very good feeling about Amusan still being the one to break that 12.12 secs record and having it for quite awhile

fergie001:
Yes, they will say this is how Marion Jones started. The annoying thing is the stand-off by some of them.

Michael Johnson, a man I adored on the Sydney2000 even talked down on her time, that the clock perhaps malfunctioned....that is to tell you that if this tournament didn't hold in the US, they might have disputed the records.

I am proud of Tobi and her Jamaican coach. who herself is a former hurdler and Commonwealth Champion.

Can you now see why I used the word shady?
After all, the anemometer is controlled and analyzed by a person. Who's to say they would not have recorded a wild speed of 1.9m/s under a different circumstance.

All the same, we should all be proud of Tobi she's been in fantastic form all year.

Imortal001:
Good

It has been a great showing by Nigeria tonight.

fergie001:
She didn't break two world records, Congrats to her.....

World Champion.

Yeah, the time for her final race, 12 06 secs, was eventually adjusted due to wind direction.

Kelvinarsenal:
Oluwatobiloba Amusan just struck Gold shattering WR twice in same evening ...whatttt a race!Naija TOBI EXPRESS!

Unfortunately, the championship umpires denied her the second world record, citing wind direction. So, the time of 12.12 secs, which she ran in semi final, is still maintained as the recognized world record.

I have a feeling she will still shatter that record later this year or during the next diamond league event. She is in the form of her life.

dapkin:
I just saw that it is no longer the world record...sighting wind direction!!!

It is still a world record. She actually ran a second world record in the final 12.06 but they raised a weird technicality about wind direction to nullify her second world record and maintain the 12.12 secs time.

I guess they didn't want to pay her $100k twice in one night....

GenBuhari:
Great news

Amazing news indeed. Nigeria is having a great night in Oregon today.

GodsOwnMan:
Yoruba people eh na dem dey carry this country o! Lets be honest and the rest of us should catch up!

I think the other regions also chip in with some good wins.

Ese Brume just won Silver tonight.

Nigeria's female Long jumper has just won a silver medal at the World Athletics Championship with a distance of 7.02 meters.

She finished behind Germany's Malaika Mihambo who jumped a distance of 7.12m to claim the gold medal.

Ese Brume joins Tobi Amusan who had earlier claimed a 100m hurdles gold in world record time, on the medals roll call for the night.

COMPAQ:
I also hope with all my heart she hasn't taken performance enhancing drugs.

But to say she has no prior history of success shows you don't follow athletics. The was the last Diamond League champion in 2021 I think and won a medal at the Tokyo Olympics.

That person obviously has not followed the amazing career trajectory of this incredible athlete.

They just cited some shady technicality about wind reading to rob her of her second world record time.

The verdict us that a record time of 12.12 secs, is maintained for her.

And she just broke the world record again, a second time in one night....what a champion she is.

She takes gold.

Nigeria's in-form sprinter, Tobi Amusan has completed an incredible double by breaking the world record for the 100m women's hurdle and also winning a gold medal at the ongoing world Athletics Championship, Eugene, Oregon.

The young Nigerian, who had initially broken the world record in the semi final by recording a time of 12.12 seconds, won the final in a time of 12.06 swcobds to crown an amazing evening at the WACH.

She would have recorded two world records in One Night had the original time achieved in for her final race(12.06 secs) not been adjusted for wind direction.

All the same, it was an incredible night for the Nigerian athlete who will take home a prize of $100,000 for breaking the world record in the semi final race.

dohyn:
Congratulations to her. I do hope she wins gold in the final.
If her time of 12.12s is not broken in the final(hopefully not) ,she wins $100k for breaking the record, so fingers crossed...

Her $100k is actually assured whatever happens in the final. She held the record for a time so she gets the prize.

dohyn:
Congratulations to her. I do hope she wins gold in the final.
If her time of 12.12s is not broken in the final(hopefully not) ,she wins $100k for breaking the record, so fingers crossed...

Exactly! I am really hoping she takes home both accolades.

Our girls are doing great tonight.

Ese Brume is so in the driving seat for a gold medal in the long jump competition. I hope she wins it.
