I've not seen any player execute a knuckle shot in this AFCON.

Krepin Diatta says Hi!

Danielnino00:
Yea. we don't wanna talk about it... the match don pass...
Let's focus on the one at hand..

And let's hope Chukwueze put more improvement into his final ball too...

Sorry na me find trouble.

Seems no body wanna talk about the moment one of Chukwueze's moves floored Biringimana and broke the left yansh of their left back.

maidaboi:
Senegal?

I saw both matches, they were all good but Algeria were more purposeful and had more team play, both teams created chances, but Algeria wasn't as profligate as Senegal, hence...

So far in this tourney, Algeria has played the best soccer, of all the so called big boys.

jihday:
I think Kenya have been poor, their backline is so porous

Whenever a big team is living up to the billing, to u guys, it automatically means the the other team was poor, Lol una funny. Are Burundi, Zimbabwe, Namibia in any way as good as Kenya?

charlesemeka85:
Well u talk Tru boss. Pple wey no Sabi pronounce boss hahahahahahaha. Ghana man go call u bossu or massa

Back then, at kickoff.com, we had an unwritten law that States that wars are better fought in ur enemies dormain so that the ruins, damages, casualties would be his responsibilities while we smile home. We took the fights to their sites; ghanasoccernet.com, Ghanaweb.com, kickoff.com South Africa, just to keep our own home neat and sane. We were able to achieve this by ignoring them in our own abode "kickoff.com Nigeria", then going to their sites to hit them real hard.

It was fun then, I was younger and had nothing really special to think about, bar Academics. It became a habit after writing my waec/jamb, was waiting to leave for the university, Lol my mum had to seize my java phone to curb my addiction

Who else is seeing this Algeria vs Kenya match? Algeria showing what it means to be a big team.

charlesemeka85:
All of una dey here just keep mute to this kenke eater wey come for our forum dey talk shit of our pple and country

U are the one keeping him here, simple thing to do is to ignore him, then watch him flee.

Algeria is good.

Algeria plays very mature football

Dat small man, Diatta is very good. What a goal

darkelf:
Sorry guys, I can't watch the match currently.

Please is Sadio Mane featuring for Senegal?

No he is serving a one match ban, but, he is not being missed a whit

lexyman:
Tanzania are struggling , a lot of errors from the back line... these has made the Senegalese looked like the better team ... watch the game again ... they re not better than the top team that have participated in the tourney ...

I am impressed with the Zimbabwean and the beautiful play by the Ugandan...

Uganda would pack cards against this Senegal side.

Joebie:
Senegal is actually good!

If not for the prodigalities of the strikers, Senegal would av been at least 5 goals ahead. They aint giving Tanzania any chance, their wingers are over stretching the Tanzanian defense, and their midfield led by Badou is extremely rugged and are creating chances after chances.

KevinDein:
Probably helped by the fact that Tanzania look like the worst team of the tournament so far. Burundi, Zimbabwe and Namibia were much more organized and tactically better.

U think either of those two would play better against Senegal than Tanzania is doing?

lexyman:
Both team struggle with their passes and but Senegal has some advantages over them ...
I think the Senegalese struggles without Mane ... Mane is like 3 players in 1 to this team

Senegal struggling in this match? How plz?

Senegal and Tanzania no be mate abeg, the gulf in class no be here

I'm here with my pop corns waiting to see Amunike's team against the most talented team in this tournament.

Senegal vs Tanzania

Kog45:
I remember your opinion then on Fikayo Tomori and you said for now he was not good enough and also Tosin Adarabioyo.

But one thing is certain about this FB they improve with age especially talented ones.

I think Fikayo has come of age cos Fikayo of Hull city was too average.

Thank God u were there, I pointed out his improvement after seeing him dominate against West Brom, for Derby and the dude went berserk saying he wasnt good enough, buh two months later, he started singing his praises so I was shocked.

Mind u this was about Derby's Tomori we argued on, not Hull's, as he is trying so hard to make it seem now

komekn:
Where do l start with you.

In the business of football the only thing that is constant is CHANGE. Either for better or worse it's about continous development.

In the the 2017/18 season Fikayo Tomori played as a RB for Hull city. In my opinion at that time he was below average and not good enough for the SE.

Fast forward to 2018/19 season and he played CB for Derby County he moved his game several steps ahead. He went so far ahead that he waa arguably the best CB in the Championship. IMO currently the best Defender yet to play for the SE.

I went to watch him live when they played Hope Akpan's then Burton Albion. Both home and away and Africa other games

But a season is a long time in football so things have changed dramatically.

Once again FALSEHOOD I have been making a lot of comments about how good Aina is and how badly he was treated by the NFF. No be today l deh hail Ola another player l have watched since he was 16.

Once again, u denying ur own words like u always do. Did I praise him as a RB for Hull or as a CB for Derby? U forgot u opposed it saying Iorfa was more assured? Lol this guy, u will never change. Something that happened in January this year and u are here talking about a season?

If u dare log in with that account ever again, I go open ur yansh well well. Trust me, u no go like how e go end.

komekn:
He was not awful and his exclusion was not justified particularly shocking was the "old dead fire wood" used to replace him, Echiejile.

This guy is an arm chair analyst, I have been watching u. How come u didn't say this when he was dropped, in fact u supported Rohr's decision to drop him, back then. I was the only one who rose up against the injustice though I got a lil backing from Saint forgiveness.



I remember when I said Tomori was the best defender in the championship, u said never, buh suddenly, u turned around to shrine same Tomori asking why he hasn't been approached by the NFF.

Gawd!! U are neither here nor there, u are too erratic man

andrew444:
See as you make sense talk better thing

Oil dey your head jare

Lol this guy u no well jor

But I am reputed here for always making sense, just like that moment I pointed out u were same person as Mbjane, since then u deactivated the account and stopped playing ur usual pranks with it

TheGoodJoe:
They were times Aina could have given good cross but could not due to using his weaker foot. That was why he gave the back heel pass because he had to use his stronger foot. At the right, we will have a superb players giving countless passes and crosses.

I would still pick him ahead of Collins. Aina adjusts to cross with his right foot, yes, but, Collins who doesn't need any adjustments never gives crosses as pinpoint as Aina's.

For now, Collins should play, so that Aina goes back to the RB position, since there aint no strong candidate their, but, going forward, once ebuehi must have returned, Aina should be our first choice left back while Ebuehi mans the RB, Collins and ehizibue should be their respective back ups

TheGoodJoe:
Special praise goes to Ola Aina. He was just too comfortable in his role and made it look too easy. Hardly left gaps in his play and combined well with Omeruo (Young General) in his defensive duties.

I have not seen such comfort at the LB role since Celestine Babayaro and can not wait to see how Ola Aina performs on the right where he can give deadly crosses.

Why fix a car already in good state? Aina is better than Collins, hence, he should lock down that LB, Collins wouldn't be a bad back up.

I am a very big fan of Awaziem, and y'all know he is one of my boys, but I wasnt impressed with his display today, bar the block in the final minutes. Dude offered nothing going forward, in fact, his presence kinda slowed down the wizard(Chuks) ahead of him. I will only cut him some slacks bkus that wasnt his primary position, buh, he sure didn't cover himself in glory.


Dont wanna say nothing about Chuks bkus he didn't surprise me

Etebo is a carpenter, I dont really fancy him, buh I was blown away by his performance today, he was simply my best midfielder today. I didn’t feel Ndidi as much as I did Etebo. Mikel was the worst, hence the less said, the better.


The synergy btwn Aina and Iwobi was telepathic, they could pick out each other with their eyes closed and their 1-2 exchange of passes was crisp, especially when Iwobi moved to the midfield and Aina was shuttling tirelessly btwn defence and attack.

Going forward when Ebuehi must have returned, Aina should be our first choice left back, while Collins serves as his back up. I cant remember the last time we had a LFB so good at both ends.

Attack/defense;

Crosses check
Dribbles check
Passes check
Tackles check
Positioning check


Boy was absolute class

Not a big fan of misses PenalGhalo, infact I was about slacking him for fluffing his lines when Musa gave him that great pass, but while I was still typing, the guy scored a striker's goal, so I had to delete what I had typed already.

Honestly, Ighalo's goal was orgasmic. Aina is a jewel.
