The frustrating is that they make the loudest noise here! lol!

Many of them just want to argue. Some said we hare SA. So, just not to be called a hater, the rules should not be obeyed?

Remember, that Penalty decision for the Falcons against Morroco in the final, that one was even a clearer “handball”, but because Demehin’s hands was too close to where the shot was taken and while the hand is extended, it was deemed in natural position due to how she was. The penalty decision was rescinded in favour of Nigeria. That one Morroco was the host oo and in the Final

minfelix:
bro go back and listen to the commentary again…the white commentator kept shouting penalty penalty, he even said “when the ref takes time to get info from the VAR room, it’s likely a penalty”….the SA commentator wasnt saying anything much….

Lol. The call is not a penalty by the clear rule of the game, whatever the commentator is saying, he doesn’t know what he is talking about

BankyGee:
Even before the red card in the first half, South Africa weren't even doing badly. The second half was hell for the Egyptians. El-Shenawy is my Man of the Match. If the Super Eagles go one man down and we face this kind of pressure from South Africa, if we no lose maka know wetin cause am.

Even 11–11 we no fit withstand immense pressure, na 10–11 we wan come withstand. Egypt were just lucky, it's not even their defense that helped them, it was the GK, the defense did just 40% of the work.

No be one man down make us lose against Tunisia for 2021? Make we dey here dey allow banter dey cover facts. I'm not scared of South Africa whenever they want to play against us, but they are a fucking good team and every single one of their players are technically brilliant and gifted.

Leave Flashscore and watch match. Egypt were the better team. When they scored they deserved the lead. If the 11 vs 11 continued they would have won comfortably.

minfelix:
people here no sabi ball yen yen yen….if ref has blown that thing as penalty many here for don shut up with mumu analysis wey dem dey give…..una wan sabi ball pass both commentator in that match…because both of them kept saying “oh no!! oh noo!! that's definitely a penalty!!” he made a foul in the box…oh oh them sef no no ball pass una wey dey here for Nairaland?🤣🤣

Yeah, a southAfrican commentator 🤣🤣🤣. Commentators like Amokachi and Oliseh abi. Baba leave talk. The better team won

chuks404:
south Africa fit pip them 5
This particular SA team is technically good.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. The same way they were winning Egypt lol

BankyGee:
Like say you no watch the game.

Egypt's goalkeeper kept that scoreline intact. South Africa pressed and attacked the hell out of Egypt. No be PK the Egypt take win?

If una see truth make una talk am. No one here likes South Africa, including me, but facts are facts, they can fucking play ball.

Against 10 men Egypt? Are you sure you are aware that Egypt got a man sent off in the first half?

minfelix:
boss you win this arguement simply becos VAR said no penalty….you see what happened there, ajeh if it were to b Morocco looking for a winning goal, baba all this your rule ehnnn VAR will tell you another thing oo…that he wasn’t falling that he went for the ball🤣🤣

Well thats a different argument, I am not talking about Morroco. By the normal rule, that ball is clearly not a penalty all day long.

Bossoflife25:
Guy, you need to watch more footy. That's all I have to say to you.
Where do you expect him to put his hand? Do you know ball to hand at all!

Most of these people no sabi anything for football, there is no way that referee will award that as a penalty. There numerous types of these calls made in Top level football to chose from. Sometimes 2 or 3 times in a match, I was even surprised that the ref was told to check the screen

Karlovich:
The falling down changed the trajectory of a shot on target, his hands were not in a natural position. I'm still happy they lost

See people wey me and them de talk football. He was making a tackle as expected, there is no where he can place his hands, his hand in a natural position . These kinds of decisions has been made severally in the EPL.

JohnBullMySon:
He came in for the tackle. He wasn't falling.

He came for the tackle and was falling, are you watching the game at all. His hands was in a natural position. He was falling as he was making the tackle. No sensible referee will award that as a penalty.

CornOak:
No, I disagree.

1. I genuinely think the hand was on the line and not inside the box.
2. The defender's position is natural.

Many people here no even sabi rule of the game, its a clear no penalty call

minfelix:
let me agree with Nairaland here that it was not a penalty before them go call me another name🤣😂…..i no 99.9% here wants SA to lose….but u see this No penalty call, if na against Nigeria…..Nairaland go begin remove flames🤣🤣

What do you mean, it was not a penalty all days long, if they give it, it would have been a travesty. He was falling and has no where to place his hands

BankyGee:
South Africa good jare, no be hype. Make una leave bias dey dey truthful sometimes.

They can play bal. Like they can actually play ball!

With 1 man down for Egypt? A team with 90% of Al Ahly, Pyramids and Zamalek players

Ofcourse its not a penalty, he was falling he has no where to place his hands. In EPL thats not a penalty all day long

minfelix:
ref plss thats a penalty to SA abeg…no do ojoro for them🤣🤣

In EPL thats not a PK, he was falling he has no where to place his hands

Samueltemi337:
If you are familiar with Afcon then you should know Ivory Coast are no favorites

They are not the only team I mentioned but, they are stronger than SA.

Joebie:
I don't think they are top 5 sef. But they are side that can go all the way with the seriousness they bring into each game as a group

They will not go all the way. They will be eliminated

The Favourites in this competition are Ivorycoast, Egypt, Senegal, Morroco, Nigeria and Cameroon in no particular order. SA even Dr Congo are tier 2 team

Joebie:
leave friendly match.

Leave friendly match but you are using it to judge the coach.

Joebie:
SA team is not hyped. That is a team that will always put in a good fight no matter who they meet. Very consistent team. Let's call a spade a spade.

They are hyped, they will not be able to win enough games to make it to the final. They lack quality. If not for this red card Egypt git in this game, they would have pasted SA. They are clearly the better side by far.

Truidstarr:
Many people for here no Sabi ball.

Not only here, I think a lot of all these so called African analysts influencers are paid to push SouthAfrica as one of the favourites. They are lucky that Egypt got red card, if not it would have been like 3-0.

JohnBullMySon:
RSA will beat Egypt. My prediction

Make una continue to the hype this SA team. Na here we dey

yinkeys:
Group stage is still a warm up phase
We got knocked out by Tunisia in 2021 after obtaining 9 points
Last time we won the competition our first 2 games were draws
I’m just wondering why we always concede
It’s a bad sign

In that same tournament we won, we also conceded late on. Lol. We need to address the defence. But things could change drastically

Mybettingtips:
Gana Gueye after Senegal beat Botswana: "It's good to win 3-0, score three goals and not concede any. But I find it a shame to only score three goals when you are better than a team. You've got to crush them, that's how they show you respect!"

Let Super Eagles continue to romance 1-0, 2-1 scoreline, This is the mindset you have against those minnows. Crush them, crush their soul

Lol.
-Same Senegal than won their 3 matches in the last AFCON, yet comot for round of 16.
The other examples I can remember just from the top of my head are.

-Morroco last AFCON, they won all their matches and was knocked out by SA that barely qualified.

-Same thing Morroco did in 2019, they lost to Benin that in the Round of 16, Benin had 3 points in the Group stage. Egypt in the samme tournament won all their group matches, then lost to SA that qualified with 3 points after losing their first 2 matches.

-Nigeria won all their matches including Egypt that later made the Final, we lost to Tunisia that was ravaged by Covid.
There are several other examples.
I have some issues with the game agaisnt Tanzania, but Tournament winners are not determined by the first match.

Samueltemi337:
Chelle nor dey learn
Those way dey hype am here make una continue

I havennt seen such a stupid coach like this Chelle

phamarsenal:
its too early to throw stines and critize the team .. bt the truth is this defence cant win the afcon.. if we would stand a chance of winning this tournament chelle has to do sometin either by bringing in extra defensive cover or an additional holding midfielder to cover grounds, else the likes of senegal and other big teams will hv us on toast

He needs to first remove Ndidi from the starting lineup. Ndidi is finsihed as a footballer.

The fact that Ndidi, Zaidu and Osayi-Samuel are played 90 minutes in this game. Shows we dont have a coach. Eric Chelle is a very very substandard coach.

If i say something about Osihmen i might be crucified

WarHammer2000:
I think Iwobi is good at passing but poor at ball recovery. His weakness isn't showing in this game because the opponent is weak.

Best thing is to play Iwobi as a 10 and put two hustlers (Ndidi and Onyeka) behind him to do all the ball-winning while he concentrates on creating chances.

Ndidi is not a hustler.

Ndidi and Zaidu has been Atrocious lol.

TheGoodJoe:
💯

I agree. I think it will come with time. With your point in mind, we can understand the need for direct play. However, Chelle needs to build on the midfield with time. [/color]

With this midfield if we met teams like Senegal or Dr Congo or Ivorycoat who are good in the midfield, we might pay

joelsteron:
Sunday Olisey said the tanzanians have been playing very well, and i wondered whether he would have said that if he was a tanzanian?

He also said they were dictating the way the game was going with their disciplined setup. When they conceeded he said their defensive game plan cost them. See commentator

We are playing Chukwueze, Lookman and Iwobi yet. We dont have anyone hugging the wings. All our crossings in transition into the box has come from Osayi and Zaidu both who are not just good enough. This will be a long tournament for us.
