Congrats to this resilient team. They brought it on and refused to surrender that lead. 3/4 quarters won against a powerhouse is the thrill. I didn't see that Liz Cambage sef, with loud mouth. What she's currently doing is even more pitiful. These ladies wore 🐯🐯 spirit and gave the perfect revenge after that fiasco.

Murjanatu
Promise
Ezinne

These 3 in particular are something else. I didn't add Amy cos i just personally believe she's still loading.😂
If she comes full battery... Oh my!!

There were too many 2pointer misses today. We ought to be 100+ but I'll take this upset so well. We deserve the win and shout out to Rena Wakama 🇳🇬💯

1st game the lost 1/4 and won 3/4.
This time, they won 2/4 and went thru. That 3rd quarter is one hell of a quarter. Restricting your opponent to 5points is crazy crazy. Promise acting like the Princess that was promised. 😎😆

Amy for game 1
Ezinne for game 3

The Ezinne Thrill Scream.

The ladies are back to the lead. Wooooooh. I pray they see it thru the Australian game way.

Roland17:
Napoli are openly offering Osimhen to everyone, they want to cash out now and start rebuilding with funds from his transfer. I wouldn’t take it serious..:

They're now more desperate than ever.

Spy360:
Nketiah, Saka, Saliba, are what?

Not to talk of the other second level Africans like Timber and Nelson.

What does African mean to you?

I've explained it to someone that asked earlier already. As you see Partey and Elneny you suppose don already grab

Osimhen rumors revived

Jodera:
True...
I just want our both sides of attack to be strong cos we really depended on the Rhs last season. If both can give 30g/a personally and if the probable striker or Havertz can really give us that high number (which I hope he does if we don't get), then we can go all the way.

Links to Gyokeres is getting strong sha. Make we deh see.

Next season sef, i want to see threat from left than Right. Let defenders get so conscious of it that they'll stop doubling up on Saka.

Jodera:
Lol..
Is Bakayoko African or do you mean Dem saka type of African?

Anyways, me I just want any good player o, even if the person is from nairaland

Caf or AFCON player. Yeah, like Partey.

Jodera:
Lol, it's no issues at all boss

If only Arteta can add another African to his team. Only Partey dey laidis as Elneny don comot.

Shegzdave:
I’m sorry bro

na me vouch for am. The psv guy ba?

Roland17:
I don’t like this formation or should I say, the player selection. We are grossly limiting Rice when we play him deep.

At the end of the season when Partey returned and he moved up, we saw how impactful he was around scoring zones.

Also, Rice lacks the ability to build plays from deep, which slows down our ability to transition into attacking areas when we recover possession or are building from the back.

This is why I asked what is the plan for Partey or that DM/Deep CM position.

I hope to see Rice in attacking zones when we have possession because he is a big threat.

While it is true that it will limit Rice, let's also bear in mind that Rice was a machine because of emergency in our midfield last season. He was not necessarily playing his primary duty, and that truly hampered productivity for his overall game upfront. I want to believe that Merino will ease that extra duty and make him play just like he did at Westham and even better. Besides, Martin can even switch to lcm.

But that leaves the Partey sport open truly. Who is replacing?

mostob:
Lol...Baba is looking for an elite striker not just any striker. Somebody that can singlehandedly influence a game. Rumours are saying Gyokeres. All the best to him sha.

If the guy is a beast in box no p. I no need Jesus Promax.😆😆

Jodera:
If this is the formation then I'll expect more from Martinelli this season too.

Calafiori who can push attack, Merino/Rice (depending on who plays , who can push attack too.

Hopefully, last season Martinelli is just a blip

personally, and most especially if a striker arrives, with or without injury, both Martinelli and Saka, the least expected PL goals should be 16. And if on G/A basis, 30G/A. As you said, no excuses for Nelli henceforth. His LHS is now rejuvenated.

BascoVanVeli:
I can agree but we also had about 20 turnovers as a team. Just a poor night overral

Basco, abeg any better stream site to watch this Olympics? Gracias

Abeg make person help with better link or stream site to watch athletics for this Olympics

JohnBullMySon:
2040 Olympics isn't far oh. They already have strong biddings. Also the financial readiness is important and it does not look good for Naija. Atm, Nigeria cannot even afford up to 1 billion USD of capital expenditure in a single fiscal year. Which means that even with our current borrowing levels, it will take 10+ years to fund the infrastructure to accommodate the Olympics. Worse still, our infrastructure is way below the standard of cities like Paris, Tokyo before they started to spend money on upgrades.

Hosting Olympics will take Nigeria into colossal debt. That's even if we win it.

We'll need something close to national budget to successfully plan, prepare and end if we win bid. Billions of dollars. If they have sense, that event, theoretically, can singlehandedly revive the dead tourism sector. But na big dream wey dey run pass Flash. Who wan chase am?

mostob:
Looks like Merino is almost home.

The next on the list will be a striker. That one go hard sha.

On this Saka's deputy talk, anybody who pay attention to Arteta will always know his intention. Towards last season, do you think Arteta just played Martinelli on RW for the fun of it? Nah.

From my POV, Jesus will play more as a winger this season. Havertz and a new striker will probably rotate.

Truly we need that striker. Can't rely on Kai. Let new 9 be cake and Kai the icing or decor.

Abeg no forget watch South Sudan vs USA by 8pm o. Use that basketball game to rinse the nonsense you watched with these Falcons performance.

I tip South Sudan to win.


Out

Carry attacker wey you never use for 2years go.

You use better winger for qualifiers kon drop am for the attacker wey you no call in years. Only to not use the attacker. What's this thought process of RW? abi was she imposed? And why were they playing smart football prior to WWC but suddenly DISJOINTED?


Summary of this Outing: Disjointed performance.
Nonsense.

Someone is using the word unlucky. Lol.

Unlucky is Man City dominating a UCL final and a Kai Harvetz moment gives Chelsea the trophy.

Not Underwhelming and nonsense play and expecting one of the powerhouses in women's football to be looking and not reading the game with their high intelligence and decision making.

PDPGuy:
Even juju man no fit run am 😂🤣

Juju man wey know hin limit say nothing concern international withjazz😂

PDPGuy:
That’s it. It’s effectively over

it was over after the 2nd goal now. Abi where we wan score 4goals from. Now they score 3rd where we wan see 5 scores😂😂😂😂😂

Unlimited22:
When be our next game

tomorrow 4:15pm

Unlimited22:
The hype from that world cup performance got to them and they assumed they were hot sheet.

The Coach ought to make them get sense but i dunno if he sensed such shoulder carrying among them. Abeg make i go face D'Tigress abeg.

Unlimited22:
Make una no kee me abeg

Na true now. The lack of prep is what we seeing here.

Abi these ladies and Randy thought that intense training sessions pre tournament will make up for those lack of games that ought to foster cohesion?

His squad selection looked like he wanted to solve the lingering attacking problem. Alas, na eba hin dey warm.

Commentator dey giggle as dem dey use mere 1-2 passes to beat our players in tight corners. Eiiiiii. What is this abeg??

Unlimited22:
No, it simply means the other teams have evolved and we have regressed.

Thank you for this post. God bless you!!

They evolved and upgraded.

PDPGuy:
And it’s now you ladies decided to wake up. Smh
🤦🏾

wake up ke? Abi they continue sleep after hearing one big noise outside the window.

I see a few that said they're playing fine now admitting it is rubbish these ladies are playing. One would think that the ginger of 16years absence would help.

Perhaps, it's time to be using under 25s to execute this kind of tourney. These ladies are feeling either too big and lazy and lack of urgency. I don't want to talk of the disjointed play even if i know that Japan no be our mate normally.

Unlimited22:
Do these babes know we need to win by 2?

Now by 3. I no dey watch again.

They're playing good and okay is the conclusion of a few on here.

Yet every game
Commentator: They are under lots of pressure here and find it hard in transition. Back to back games.

Deltamani:
Exactly… Wingers that hardly turn their back when with the ball, they will run at you! Like Catch me if you can.

But I haven’t seen anyone in that frame from the U20 qualifying games till date.

But again let me take you guys back, I would have picked Ordega ahead of Ifeoma Onumonu going to the Olympics.. She’s still among the top3 quickest forwards we have.!

Come to think of it, you're right. At least she also sabi rush into gaps and go behind. Just that looking up be her ish.

lovewins:
Funny thing is they have a better chance at qualifying than Nigeria does. They are currently at 0 points with +2 goal difference. They just need to win and they are guaranteed 2nd place in their group. My prayer is they lose sha cause winning just makes things very complicated for us.

Absolutely. Na Drone spoil Canada

Who came up with such idea sef? See how action of a few don sabotage everyone's dreams!! I hate such moments. Same with Ofili omission right now. Village pipu don add Canada as international branch office.


Whatever the outcome today, i pray we net at least. That's the most annoying aspect of this Olympics outing for me.

GeneralDae:
Presence of fear and shame from whom? There are people who are there already who should be responsible for check and balances and who should be feared, but are doing nothing. That’s what is refffered to by some here as the system. The bad system is simply people not doing their job.

shame as a virtue and fear for doing injustice.

iamoyindamola:
I am not even concerned if he turn good or bad
It's the money we are losing that's paining me
We have forgotten we don't spend like this during wengay and ebening
Our sponsor can decide to shut us down on funds again
Maybe that will straighten their head, I remember wengay have to sell to buy

i still have PTSD from those wenger transfer windows. It is why i face front till now for any transfer news regarding Arsenal. Eiiii. How i see this, is that this is a self destruct move if this continues. Cos one day, if we have another manager and they wantu focus on academy sales, rivals should not now be using this present mode to justify their stance that we churn our averages that we don't consider good enough.

As for Xhaka statement, i dunno why fans are dragging him.
