lloydtruth:
You had 3 midfielders and you lost the midfield battle, yet you removed one of the midfielders for a striker, how will the 2 strikers feed without midfielders.

He reverted to 4-4-2 to have more advantage in the middle. Our game has improved since Tolu came on.

DR Congo has totally dominated this half and are pushing strongly for a second. Our final third is totally non-existent.

These guys are clueless and do not know what to do with the ball. Something is wrong somewhere.

Lookman and Chuks out for Simon and Ejuke.

Another goal is imminent for DR Congo.

Spainever:
Iwobi appears heavy hope all is well. Who should the coach remove now ?

He necessarily doesn't need to remove anyone now, all we need is a tactic change, and more determination.

The scoreline in the next 15 minutes will determine if we will remove Lookman and bring in Adams to pressure their defense.

This is how I look at it.

TheSuperNerd:
Ndidi should have done better clearing that. Didnt get a strong enough contact on the ball he intended to intercept. Sad.

1-1... we just seem to allow opponents back in after we go into the lead. That drop in momentum has to be tackled.

We switched formation immediately after our goal and I wasn'tcomfortable with that. We ceeded possesion, brought Chuks into the middle and starved Osimhen of the ball.

Now, we are back to the original 4-3-3 flat.

Joebie:
Blame Lookman. we should have been 2 ahead now

Not entirely, Lookman gave the pass that freed Chucks and Ndidi who couldn't shoot into an empty net.

Fredricks and Zaidu have been immensely exceptionalin this half.

Meanwhile, Lookman needs to do better with his passes.

That was a sweet cross from Lookman.

In all sincerity Benji should hold RB, Seyi should be brought back, Benji is the only one who can give those crosses from the RB position. Bright should know better his disposal is inevitable . Even when Aina returns, it will take some before he is fully fit time. Kayode is a better upgrade of them all.

You mean Semi Ajayi? cheesy

He said teammates.

Colin Udoh was debunked sir. IIRC Thesupernerd and Co dragged him

Well, he didn't mention the teammates on the other interview I watched. Nonetheless, pointed noted.

Make dem sha beat DRC be koko. No permutations required.

all he needed was chip the ball over the keeper and its over. This kind of thing is not hard for Haaland to do

We've gone past that now, two better goals came from the lad afterwards. Let's focus on the next match.

Odunayaw:
Was it not "most of these players" aka his teammates who told him?

Meanwhile, why are you still running with that " they didn't know" talk when it has been debunked?

No, they weren't, he said the ref told him. Watch the interview again.

Meanwhile, during the Benin game, Collin Udoh mentioned in an interview that he was the one who texted the bench to inform them that one more goal would seal the playoff. That was when Ekong and the rest started hurrying Nwabali.

Odunayaw:
In the interview I just watched he said he asked his teammates if it's straight to penalties, when they told him there was extra time he said he was sorry and he will correct it. Correct it he did!

Elite mentality

This is worrying though. How come most of these players don't know the key details of a match before the game day?

Who's in charge of communicating these important messages to them?

Today, Osimhen wasn't aware there would be an extra time after a full time draw, while in the game against Benin last month, they didn't know we had to score 4 goals to stand a chance at the playoffs. This showed why Nwabali was wasting time after our third goal. 🙄

We need to do better in this regard.
