We should be taking advantage of these breaks in the final third.

Damn, that was a sleek pass from Lookman to Osimhen.

That was an Ajayi handball, but thankfully it was outside the box.

Lol Morocco were head and shoulders above Cameroon, all these ref talk na consolation
The Tunisians were head and shoulders above Mali in the round of 16, imagine if the ref had not given Mali that last minute penalty.

Would the Malians have won that game through penalties?

That's where a balanced officiating matters more.

Cameroon sef dey self sabotage. Why giveaway unnecessary free kicks in dangerous areas?
Most of the calls are not genuine fouls.

Did anyone just witnessed how the Maroc free kick taker placed the ball far from the ref marked spot? Then removed the ref's sprayfoam to his desired spot.

O'boy grin

Bad officiating ruin good games, it makes team second guess their play.
That's the third clear elbow foul from Morocco, and the calls have all gone to Morocco .

This is bulshit and very unprofessional from Lookman, let him try it against Algeria who can equalise the yeye two goals he was talking about. So it’s now a crime to be hungry for more goals because someone has two. Shebi it’s because it was Mozambique. Osihmen you guys are bashing is the one that’s more mature to know that after what happened against Tunisia it’s the wisest thing to pump in as more goals as possible. This gentle nature of Lookman that’s deceiving all of you, [b]I will be here to mock all those that will complain again by the time the same Lookman starts playing like the way he was doing during the wcq [/b]and some were already saying he should be benched. You folks forget the past easily. Make una continue
You're taking sides which is what you preach against. Its been established that the whole scenario wasn't about Lookman vs Osimhen, and I believe you should close this chapter.

And the "I told you so" part? Grossly unnecessary.

Abeg, let's move past this.

Two truths can coexist
Watch the match again
You'll see I'm not wrong

I'm not even excusing Osimhen's behavior..
I am treating it as a today issue
Most of us are bringing past issues to the matter..

I have already said Osimhen needs to apologize to the whole team and should be benched in our next game
No need benching him, na just mumu boy wen carry the thing for head. grin Dem go settle am las las.

Nothing do you, chief.🙌

Goke7:
He’s wasn’t releasing the ball on time but look at how quick and direct he was giving Akor that assist.

Funny enough in the first half Lookman was even releasing the ball on time but in the second half there were two instances where he was slow. Let’s not forget o how Akor was reluctant in celebrating with Lookman after scoring against Tunisia it took Iwobi to jump on him to join in the celebrations.

Both Lookman and Iwobi are our creative players and the team needs them most. Go and watch an interview with Sunday mba with Elegbete he narrated how keshi had to threaten to bench victor moses for uzoenyi because of this issue and he mentioned same thing is happening in this team but he refused to mention which player. Most folks assume he was referring to chuks.
You criticize Nigerians for demanding perfection from these players, but on the other hand, you're expecting perfection from Lookman/Akor. Is that fair and enough for Osimhen to cause a scene, after two goals?

Football is dynamic and not every move is the same. Prior to the second half, these guys in question (Looku and Akor) already have goals and assists. In addition, we were still creating chances when this issue occurred. Why not calm down and tell them to pass?

Significantly, what will you say about the hard-created chances wasted by Osimhen? Or his offline woes? What happens when his teammates decend on him due to these?

What's good for the goose should also be good for the gander.

Oga watch match and leave statistics
If Lookman, Akor and Osayi release ball today, we would probably have won 7 or 8:0

Even me wey no play, I was frustrated with the unnecessary ball holding and dressing, talk more of Osimhen who was making the runs and was repeatedly ignored
It's quite unbelievable that you're excusing Osimhen's behavior.

Osayi crossed at least 2 perfect balls to Osimhen in the first half alone. Go back and watch with calm nerves.

Meanwhile, you mean other players shouldn't take clear shots at goal when in a better position but should instead cross/pass to Osimhen?

Nawa sha.

And that’s what led to the 4th goal by Akor o

Leave Nigerians with their self righteous attitude
So you actually agreed that Lookman was selfish in this game and only started passing after Osimhen shouted at him?

Incredible.
