Which store? Temu abi

COOL10:
"Back to Sender" was in full effect tonight 😄

RIALITI:
Oya!!!

Now all those penaldo fans will run to queue behind Mbappe just because they don't want Messi to win this tournament.

I believe the GOAT Leo will get to the final and triumph as usual

omoredia:
Every black person is being affected by how Africa is. If Africa gets better it will tell positively on black people all over the world. Racism is not the problem. The real problem is an Africa that has refused to shine

MT:
I see Spain vs Argentina final

HacheNoire:
Just telling you how guaranteed it is. Christ has not returned in last 1000 years. But by 2027, His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) will be sworn in for second term.

No insult but just how certain it is.

ibtommy:
Don't mind him. Instead of him to just wish himself well. Let Portugal win the WC of the world will rest for many weeks. Everywhere will turn to CR7. Baba, you dey "underrate" yourself nih? Win it na.

The "Fan Vote" is the biggest scam in football history, and the Portugal vs Croatia match just proved it. 🤡
Giving CR7 the official MOTM award for that game is pure delusion. If we are being real, fanbases need to stop rewarding penalty-hunting and 90-minute ghosting. Look at the actual numbers from the pitch:
📊 Portugal vs Croatia: The Real Impact
Ronaldo played 81 minutes, scored a penalty, and literally did nothing else. He finished the match with 0 touches inside the Croatia penalty box from open play. 💨
Compare that to the teammates who actually saved Portugal's World Cup run:
• Gonçalo Ramos: Came off the bench as a super-sub and scored the high-pressure, 94th-minute match-winner.
• Diogo Costa: Stood like a wall, making world-class saves to stop Croatia's golden generation from killing the game early.
• Vitinha: Controlled the entire tempo of the midfield, creating the transition plays that Ronaldo couldn't link up with.
Yet, a popularity contest gives the trophy to a ghost performance just because of a name.
🐐 Meanwhile, Look at Messi’s 2026 World Cup Run
If you want to talk about actual footballing impact without relying on cheap stats, look at what Lionel Messi is doing for Argentina in this tournament. No ghosting. No hiding.
• The Cabo Verde Masterclass: When Argentina was on the brink of the biggest humiliation in football history, Messi dragged them through. He scored a sensational open-play goal in the 29th minute and delivered the lethal 111th-minute corner that forced the match-winner.
• Complete Playmaking: Across all WC 2026 matches so far, Messi isn't just waiting in the box. He is leading Argentina in progressive passes, chances created, and successful dribbles.
• Zero Penalty Reliance: While others build records from 12 yards out, Messi is dropping deep, driving the ball forward, and breaking defensive lines against low blocks.
Ball knowledge is completely dead if fans keep prioritizing a penalty over a 90-minute masterclass. It's time to stop looking at the back of the jersey and start looking at the actual game(na Ai I use for the one o,pls).

geoworldedu:
You can't be putting Messi and Ronaldo in the same sentence. Messi is the undisputed GOAT. His style of play alone is enough to crown him GOAT, not to talk of his achievements in football. Highest Goal Scorer in the world stage, highest assist in the world stage, highest number of trophies in the world, highest balon Dor in the world, most scoring streak in the world cup(8 games and still counting).

He just added 9 new records after winning Cape Verde. You can't just hate on this God.

psalmsjob:
Na the same reasoning wey dem dey take support Peter Obi you dey see so.....he did nothing as Anambra state governor they say but that is governor just elect him as president he will do wonders He kept a foreign bank account as sitting governor against the law but they say it was because he didn't know it was against the law He kept anambra state money in his bank account yielding interest for 8 years whe doctors were on strike in Anambra for 14 months straight demanding for better working condition and hospital facilities but his supporters say it is better to save money than to invest it on infrastructure.

Old me would have said: from a poor religious polygamous family.

But honestly I can marry from anywhere, just give me peace of mind, good head and doggy.

Besides, most of these people we refer to as "rich" have enormous crazy egos.
Very true

It's the simple things in life that matter.

What happened to the German machine team we knew growing up, when they started being politically correct by packing Africans into the team, I knew they were done.

helinues:
Perhaps you haven't watched president Tinubu answering questions before, he will give you like 3 references to each question and turn the interview around

Peacecore:
Ronaldo fans are very terrible humans

nnachukz:
They don manufacture story sharply to backup one careless and insensitive statement.

Peacecore:
And they'll say it's just Cape Verde

NDominic:
Messi is the greatest of all time
If u like am or not

The truth hurts

Jayhome24:
Very laughable indeed. One thing I h8te about this copy and paste I d I o t iss he s extremely too bitter and lack political understanding of different terrains and this is why the elites in the country take him as unserious political mofo with empty stunt than social media bruhaha.

This I d I o t didn't talk about the beaten his party received in Ekiti governorship election and other by-eleection across the country, I knew he will come up with a distractive statement to distract his followers who buys all his shit all the time.

I can't blame you obi I blame Ojukwu for all these cus when the Anambrans rejected you and he ojukwu was begging for you not known you will ends up nuisance its a so sad, if you are that good why the rejection?

Very laughable statement, you are bitter and extremely in pain. Someone you didn't voted for you want him to resign ba? Na we voted for Tinubu na we get the right to tell him anything not you snd the truth is Tinubu will rule you till 2035 and you obi and your efu followers can't do nada about it......

Am not watching the word cup because U.S hosted it. A country with a very evil Epstainian cannibalistic leader

Osariemen12:
Too bad.

If someone did it in Lagos or Osun some time in past, Nigeria won't be experiencing the massive progress it is witnessing today.

Kalulu44:
Weakest form kee you there 😀😀😀.
Now humor me. In 2006 Messi scored 1 goal in the group stage. 2010 when he was hot no goals. 2014 scored against shitty Nigeria and Bosnia to get 4 goals in the group stage and couldn't score again till final.
2018, scored only in group stage before they exit.
Until in 2022 his uncles in FIFA decided enough is enough, we can't let our boy continue like this. Oya all referees, start giving him penalties. You and I knows how many penalties he scored in the last world cup, even against small Saudi Arabia.
Holland coach came out and said openly that Messi is being aided by FIFA to win the world cup.
.
So tell me something I don't know.

Kalulu44:
You know one thing I like about Ronaldo, he doesn't pretend. He comes out and say what is in his mind without caring whose ox is gored.
I don't want to go further but you see Messi, that guy is a great pretender using humility to disguise.

Lamasta:
This topic is for Ronaldo but you FIFA boy fans will not let us rest here

FIRDAUS3:
His resignation is your joy, but your myopic eye lens couldn't allow you to gaze beyond the current situation.
The only vice that cannot be forgiven is hypocrisy. The repentance of a hypocrite is itself hypocrisy. But with those who possess great talent it is hypocrisy.

### The Reality Check: Why the U.S. Isn't "Drained"

Some of you are celebrating because the SPR dropped to 340.3 million barrels, but you are completely misinterpreting how the global energy market works.

The U.S. isn't running out of oil; they are literally controlling the global price of it. Here are the hard facts:

The World's #1 Producer:** The U.S. is currently pumping a historic **13.7 million barrels of oil per day**. That is more than Saudi Arabia and more than Russia. They aren't sitting around waiting for those underground caves to empty; their domestic rigs are hitting record highs.

The 2-Week Myth is Fake Math:** The claim that 340 million barrels only lasts the U.S. "two weeks" assumes they produce zero barrels of their own and import nothing from Canada or Mexico. Because they produce so much domestically, that 340 million barrels still covers over 100 days of net import protection.


An Economic Weapon, Not Weakness:** Draining the SPR is a deliberate, offensive strategy by the Trump administration to flood the market. It is the only reason we aren't seeing an "Armageddon scenario" of $150 global oil right now due to the Iran conflict.


The Real Flex:** While the Middle East conflict cut global supplies, U.S. net exports of crude and petroleum products actually surged to a record **5.8 million barrels per day** recently.

The U.S. isn't begging for a ceasefire because they are broke; they are using their emergency reserve exactly what it was built for—as an economic shock absorber to protect consumers from inflation while their daily production keeps the world spinning.

Instead of worrying about America's 340 million barrels, the real question we should be asking on this forum is: *How many barrels do we have in our own local strategic reserve in Nigeria?* Let's look at data, not sentiments!
