Mujtahida:
Whats the mystery that coach after coach, Onyedika remains a fringe player. Why? why? why?
We desperately need a ball player in that midfield. It's time to bring in Ebenezer.

they must be a reason why handlers of the national team prefers ndidi

No be everything we fans dey see

Zaidu really surprised me with his overlapping runs and crosses

So good to have him back

forgiveness:
Chelle focused on exposing Benin’s highline with through long balls and cross into the box from the wing and it paid.

Once they are without the ball, they defended deep into their half.

When I saw the way they started playing, I said this coach no press today ooo. I just felt at ease.

u sabi game bro 👊

9JAMac10:
Absence of lookman is a huge boost. No selfish play or holding up the play for too long. Let him start from the beach next time please.

very big difference.

Nehruvia:
Why is no one giving me my flowers 😒

well deserved flowers

In short mk I go cut iroko tree for u

Players that really impressed me against Benin

Samu
Zaidu
Osimhen
Bassey
Fredricks

Goke7:
Shebi it’s because we score 4 goals everybody Dey make mouth 😂 if Onyeka no score that fourth goal I wonder wetin you go Dey talk na! Na you go first attack Chelle like the Zimbabwe game!

oga I no follow u dey watch back of tv. Even if the game ended 3-0 or even 2-0 the boys played exceptionally well which is a sign that they understand Chelle’s tactical demands now

I watch the game from start to finish so nothing u fit talk wey go mk me think otherwise

Tactically this is Chelle’s best game with the super eagles since he took charge. Not because of the score line but how the boys executed his plans on the pitch.

forgiveness:
The bolded explanation proofs today's game plan has nothing to do with the players.

Why single out Lookman? Na Lookman bi coach we dey do press?

Today, they allowed Benin to play while they countered and played long balls.

Today's game is tactical not about hugging ball or not.

very tactical and only folks that understands the game will notice this

Chelle’s tactics worked perfectly well as he hoped, also that early goal was a big morale boaster

elyte89:
Abeg make Una go support Senegal 🇸🇳 o🤣🤣
🤣,strange things have happened in football

what happened? I checked and they are playing nil nil

MetalJigsaw:
He seems to underestimate what he can achieve with the pool of players.

He in fact rate our players highly and know that he can achieve a lot with the team if given more time, this is the reason he accepted the job even when the pay wasn’t up to what he was earning at previous job

Goke7:
Na the goals make dem look exceptional make talk true we were poor in some segments and that’s my worry in the playoffs

which poor? Because you were expecting them to play nonstop with the opponent not having a sniff of the ball?

Oga rest abeg. Maybe na another match you watch

Mujtahida:
Frank should replace Ndidi as our destroyer.

Ndidi is better on the ball than Onyeka

Goke7:
Our current team is the one that can shut their mouths finally with good performances

not about shouting their mouth but to not come close to any administrative nor managerial position in our football ever

I will support that we fans should go all out online to campaign against the involvement of US 94 squad members in our football going forward. They have never been any good to our football

9JAMac10:
Congrats to the boys on making the playoffs if only we had beaten Zimbabwe and Lesotho at home.

just beat one of them we for dey through now

Joebie:
this commentator dey praise us.. To talk true, we did what we needed to do since SA got thier win. But i'm not impressed with our overall play.

the team played exceptionally well

COOL10:
Such a beautiful sight seeing Gernot Rohr hugging and congratulating our players. 😊

that’s his boys. No matter what I still love the man

Wey pple wey dey cry say midfield dey open and say na lagos-Ibadan express way ? 🤣🤣🤣

The 94 set is one of the worst thing to happen to Nigerian football

I just wish none will be allowed anywhere close the affairs of our football 🤦‍♀️

lbrichman2:
Our midfield na express way
Just imagine jamming Spain, Germany or Portugal with this yeye midfield..

make Una relax for once abeg. The tactics chelle is playing in this game is what is required from any team desperate to win with large goal margin

The same tactics propelled to team to score 2 goals in the first half so what’s the fuss?

After this qualifier series it’s high time the handlers of the national team give other flank players a chance as well as ease Simon out from the team

A player like Philip Otele who hv been in hot form so far for Swiss giants Basel is a good mention

Also in defence Ekong should be allowed to concentrate on his club.

The team needs rebuilding, a mix of bright talented young players with some old guards such as Iwobi, ndidi and Ajayi

Zaidu is miles better than Bruno

Mujtahida:
Benin have too much of the ball.

Wetin dem use am do?

Mybettingtips:
Our boys are not playing with the urgency needed to make playoff. We should be all over Benin and look to 4 goals minimum

na so e easy and una never qualifying with like 3 matches remaining since 🤣🤣🤣

Icon4s:
When on the offensive it switches to 4-2-4

My only worry in this Line up is Ndidi

why?

mrwilliams9:
Why are we so stubbornly tied to the 4-4-2?

We keep surrendering the midfield and wonder why we don’t control games.

no be una want attack minded coach?

Moreover with the situation of the team in the group dem suppose even play 9 attackers in this game 🤣

Danielnino00:
SMH... Iwobi in a 2 man midfield again...

is Iwobi the only one in midfield? Mk una free that guy for once

AndSunGorilla:
Lord Lugard.

Jesus 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Mujtahida:
We have to be fair to Chelle. These are high stake games and the time to strategize is short.

Chelle has secured 11 out of a possible 15 points. That's massive

the man shouldn’t be blamed for our woes. The NFF should bear the brunt

Instead of SA to qualify mk Benin qualify

Mybettingtips:
We don pack defenders full game. We dey protect one goal lead against Lesotho. Thanks to Nwabali

are you expecting the team to continue attacking at this stage of the game when they hv a slim win that should be protected?

Na una ego and pride be Una biggest problem

QueenJazz:
Nwabali get lost abeg. I don't what gone into your head since the last AFCON but you've become absolutely insufferable.

Get lost!!!

nwabali wey body dey swt like 16 year old girl wey start to straff newly

Bring back Okoye pls
