CornOak:
Onyango denied Onuachu a goal!

Mujtahida:
That wasn't Chukwueze. It was Bruno

AndSunGorilla:
our midfield na expressway

AndSunGorilla:
the guy was pulling Bassey's shirt.

Toylove:
all these oversabi refs

lbrichman2:
My major challenge with uzoho is that he is more likely to punch a ball that catch it
And his punches can gift goal scoring opportunities to opponents..

Even in the UECL clips where they said he did well, he punched 5-6 balls before he caught 1..
And that has cost us before..

Nevertheless, he deserves an opportunity if Nwabali cannot start our next game

minfelix:
Another player of Nigerian descent just score but this time its an own goal from Saul Coco Oubina(Obinna) of Equitorial Guinea😅😅 Omo 9ja by blood

There's another Ayinde on the Burkina Faso bench.

lexyman:
Two of our goals came from headers. The Super Eagles are becoming a real aerial threat to any team, and our set pieces are getting dangerous too.

TheSuperNerd:
Victor Osimhen's goal and assist today for the Super Eagles in their 3-2 win vs Tunisia were his 32nd Goal and 45th Goal Contribution across 47 NT Caps.

45 Goals+assists (32G, 13A) in 40 Super Eagles starts, 47 caps.

Meliforme:
I have read a lot of criticisms on Chelle regarding his game management and this is my perspective.

The Tunisians were mounting a lot of pressure on the flanks, and Chelle needed to foil the pressure.
Ndidi was even out of his position to defend the flanks.
That was the motive behind the substitutions Chelle made.

Again, in competitions there is what we call the game momentum. The momentum of the game shifted for obvious reasons and the Tunians siezed it to see what they can grab.

semid4lyfe:
FIFA and IFAB really need to train referees to improve their interpretation of the handball rule and taking penalty decisions.

There's no consistency in interpretation, and it feels like referees are making decisions based on discretion.

That penalty call against Nigeria was not a penalty.

It's perplexing, man. Even the VAR is confused.

Goke7:
Against a faster counter attacking Tunisia that would have been suicidal. Dude helped in keeping possession for us

Goke7:
On the bright side something is beginning to click in our midfield and I like how Iwobi is beginning to take leadership shielding the ball like mikel those days. Even the osayi we are blaming tried his best linking with the midfield and attack. That was a beauty to behold. Ndidi has finally come to the party and we may be seeing more goals from him.

Akor deserves to be in our starting 11 he’s bringing much into the side and as for Lookman and osihmen just leave them to cook. Chelle is the Judas iscariot. I can only pray he doesn’t sell us for 30 pieces of silver as the tournament progresses but after this Afcon no matter the outcome make the man Dey go. It’s obvious he ruined our World Cup dreams! God punish am!

charlesemeka85:
and hv any team conceded more than us?

femicyrus:
The only explanation Chelle can give for his poor performance in the 2nd half is to claim that Tunisia used voodoo on him.

Like he did against the DR Congo playoff.

lbrichman2:
Same thing he did against Tanzania
Zero reading of the game
Just in a hurry to bring on Simon

JohnBullMySon:
Na pure handball. Osayi was even pushing the Tunisia guy which could have even resulted in a separate penalty too without the handball

JohnBullMySon:
It was meant to be an advantage for Tunisia na.

lbrichman2:
Win wey feel like loss
Mtchew!!!

Nwabali and Chelle.

Goke7:
Nonsense! Chelle is a madman

I'm freaking livid right now. Was he paid to play Ejuke in that critical moment? What manner of abysmal sub was that?

Damn!
