Who dem show red?

Cameroon player for punching our Gk

Aniefiok should take over the official team x page abeg. She sabi this thing pass whoever is giving us primary 4 files.

GeneralDae:
Hopefully both of them go don recover before April. The sun and terrible pitch (though not excuses) can slow down these foreign borns. Cameroon are mostly home based players, so they adapted well.

The weather can be terrible. But that pitch?? Oh boi. They really tried by keeping the ball aground. Kudos to them. Especially Ashleigh and Ajibade. I hate that officiating in women's football is getting worse. They stamped Uche and ref waved play on and called freekick Cameroon 4seconds later for a 50-50 tussle. I wish we saw the punch to Chiamaka. I hope someone in the stadium caught it on camera. Trust Nigerians to turn it to meme.

That red card doesn't change the fact that this was a terrible game. Smh.

Oshoala go wan dey shot Lagos geh fight instead of doing the talking on the pitch. E don pass the standing up for teammates abeg.

This formation no work. I hope Ohale and Esther injury is not serious sha.

Terrible coverage.
Alll giving signs that Nff doesn't seem interested

From media to report to in game complaints for two disallowed goals. They're acting like nobody is in charge. Really terrible 😔

Deltamani:
At least MTN own better pass SuperFalcons main page own 😂😂

The thing go taya me one day and i go shout on twitter till attention is caught. They need do better. Mtn go dey distract with Watermark. Lol.

🚨: Nigeria’s Super Falcons Gear Up for Epic Olympics Qualifier Clash Against Cameroon’s Lionesses Tomorrow at MKO Abiola Stadium, Abuja 🇳🇬⚽

See how Justine's pics are a breather and shows the work of a true and sensible professional? The MTN own na to dey do like primary school watermark. Mtn own-watermark eyesore, the other one, blurry and headache pictures, clips. This is Africa's decorated female team for heaven's sake.

Since 2020 o. Ahan!!

Deltamani:
Let the Party Begin…. I like how Ajakaye is keeping it feminine in her dressings, giving me that franny vibe….

Opeyemi Ajakaye X Esther Onyenezide with agent Alonso Sanchez.. the CEO of Vortexx Sports Group..

Wetin dey worry Esther😂😂😂😂😂

Arteta wanted Odegaard but we the fans disagreed. To us, Maddison is way better.

Arteta went for Trossard. We blamed him for pulling out of Mudryk's deal.

When I heard the Jorginho rumour, I thought na prank until I saw the announcement.

Raya vs Ramsdale was so hot mehn. Media pulled the nationality card too. But now, nobody dey reason am again.

Although the jury is still out on Vieira and Havertz.

It may seems as if I'm supporting him but experience they say, is the best teacher. He is clearly in charge. Let him do what he wants. Has he made mistakes in the past? Yes. Is he still making mistakes? Yes. Will he make mistake in future? Probably.

Hopefully, Pep will go trophyless this season and run away. He has done enough

But make we no lie, those guys under Tetaball would ball hard. Especially with Madison that already had experience. Mudryk environment might be affecting him too. I just feel he'd be different under us. Players heading to Balabluee side of London lately have all be underperformers. Even Caicedo.

I still imagine a Bha version of Caicedo in our middle. Guy we go ball. Especially if he played with Xhaka.

But irris what irris. So.....

Lol. Damage control.

The mining industry in ibadan is so vast and decades old and already has cabals and big game players that makes this current exercise not helpful. If he wants to do the right thing then he needs to wake up and g head long with the hydra head and fight it.

This is an old script. If this convinces you, then you must be Gen Z promax²

The art of dribbling has become more intelligent and much more end 🔚 product centred as well as strategic.

When I look at Manchester City it's like looking at a team with several highly skilled number 10's ,there is continuous interchange of positions and formations.

Albeit with greater emphasis on number 9 depending on the circumstances, they change with the game and opponents.

So we even noticed the traditional number 9 quintessential striker is no longer central to some teams and or the numbers 9️⃣ adapts to changes and strategy making him very fluid. I see this in Arsenal and Liverpool.

The art of dribbling has not died it just got BETTER.

Got Better?

Im afraid this is just Recency Bias at play.


Besides, you can't see Doku and put end product in same sentence in all sincerity. Doku is getting more attention than necessary because dribbling overall has nosedived.if dribbling is like the last 2 decades, Doku na Pry 3 e go dey, analogy-wise.

Another observation that i keep finding funny is these are all from Man City. Why??

In a bid to hype the dribbling we currently see, we're trying hard to downplay that the last generation was the peak of both successful and unsuccessful dribblings. So the tendency to quickly paint it as no end product pops up. Lol.


Doku can't even lace Ribery and Robben's end product. Besides, that too is shrouded in defenders being superb. 1v1 situations and defenders came out okay. Now, we see 2 to 3 defenders because of dribblings, even when the dribblers aren't that good.

So, I'll rather see this like a venn diagram than distinct. What i don't like is painting the dribbers of last generation one kind way to make the dribbling we currently see as intelligent. Naaaah.

Nelli don comot field since yet he has the most touches in opponents box(30)

What can be done to unlock this guy inside box abeg? Porto definitely noticed this and did allllllll to make sure he didn't have in box touches. It worked. Can't be having all those touches and still not be getting GAs. Kai was great tonight. 2G/A is 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Na clean sheet pain me. Infact that's what's paining me lately.

TheGoodJoe:
All these one you are talking is long story. My point is simple the art of dribbling today is not dead.

Welcome to the PASTORE SHOW.

Okaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyy.

Now I'm curious about who said it died. Make i brock Lesnar the person.

charlesemeka85:
lemme oooo 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

As bassey and iwobi score this losing the match as a united fan no even pain me 🤣🤣🤣🤣

😂😂😂😂😂

TheSuperNerd:
This is the actual truth...

Manchester UTD 1-2 Super Eagles

Super Eagles even better pass Charlesemeka's Man U 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

😂😂😂😂😂😂 so Charles na Man U fan sef?? 😂😂

I was angry Iwobi switched to right leg then i was like na Onana. I was expecting far r2. This guy chose close by to bury it😂

To imagine these two were giving away possession the most again. 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Up Super Eagles.


We need new Anthem. Modern one. Make we outdate these paran paranpa pararanran ones.

Odunayaw:
You sef see am.

I will rather hype Ejuke

In same Epl, i can point several that do sweet, sleek and purposeful dribbling better than Grealish. But e be like the hype's been on Jack so it makes him look better than he is.


The truth of dribbling is that any dribbler must do it how JJ and Dinho did it(by this i mean you must sabi twist body like dance, even as a drunk, must have tricks up your sleeves, and end product)
One can be better than the other but it must be part of it. Even Messi had tricks and sleek, body twists.

TheGoodJoe:
Hilarious. The point is that the art of dribbling is not dead. I have dropped about four to five videos. You guys were just mute. If you want me to keep showing you that the art of dribbling is not dead, let me know.

Dribbling with purpose over dancing like a drunkard on the field.

Finito.

Welcome to the Thiago Alcantara show.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCCpArUaXqI

Dont shift the goalpost pls. Before the modern game started, we all know what actual dribbling is. And i put it to you that if that is impressive dribbling to you, then the aforementioned players are way better dribblers and should be hyped by you.


Okocha did everything.

Drunkard
Dancer
Actual Dribbling
With purpose or not, he did.

Dinho too.
And the names i listed do with purpose, except maybe Simon lately. Oyo for anyone that thinks it's dead. But that grealish own? Naaaahh. Too basic to be hyped by me or any fan that knows what dribbling used to be.

TheGoodJoe:

I am saying these guys have those skills but football today do not play to the gallery. Football today is really driven by effectiveness. So these guys don't gallivant with the ball, does not mean the art is dead.

Welcome to the Grealish show.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bb4X0TFsMkQ

If this is the level, then I'll rather hype Nacho, Iwobi, Moses Simon, and Mitoma. 😮‍💨

Africa vs Man U🤣

Bassey
Iwobi
Traore(yeah i know. But IYKYk)

AkinDS:
For instance, Abeokuta means under the rock.
Abe-odun, if that is even a Yoruba word, means beneath odun (e.g., Christmas), which doesn't make any sense.

She was being called out of her name which isn't right.
Anyway,...

No mind Delta😂

Or since he can't resist the urge, Debbie is okay. 🤣

Deltamani:
Abeg mk Ona leave me jare😂😂😂


If at all Ona Understand.

Abe means under
Abi-birthed/born

So you see😂😂😂😂

So....

mostob:
That guy na something else jare

He don loseguard 😀😂

naptu2:
Africa gets 2

Okay. Zambia better clinch that other one. I doubt Morocco will have it easy

Deltamani:
UEFA Women's Nations League

Netherlands v Germany to fight for a place at the Olympics

Spain v France Nation League Final (Both Nations Already Qualified For The Olympic Games..

Spain 🇪🇸 3-0 Netherlands 🇳🇱
France 🇫🇷 2-1 Germany 🇩🇪

So 3 spots and Africa get only 1?

komekn:
Please name the world 🌍 class players Nigeria has produced. And what is your criteria for world class.

For instance JJ Okocha is one of the most skilful players I've ever seen. But 84 games for PSG in French league one and 12 goals as well as 124 games in the EPL and 14 goals. Is that why me never got African footballer of the year ❓

Manchester city K. De Bruyne, is not as skilful as JJ but then considering the insane amount of assists who is more effective and better. In all honesty my heart ❤️ and eyes 👀 are for JJAY but my head 🗣️ is for K. De Bruyne.

What's your view

I thought your anthem/motto here is stats aren't conclusive. What changed now?

Now that's a rhetorical. But you're enjoying the options above, one for heart and eyes, another for head. That's what other folks also do with football. But you'll hop onto them like Lord Ozai. Why?

Deltamani and ABE-ODUN instead of ABI-ODUN
😂😂😂😂😂

solonnachi:
This referee robbed us of our two goals and I think NFF should petition CAF

Let's even see how NFF will react to that abysmal officiating. It will make me understand if they really, truly care and are watching.

Deltamani:
The Namibia 🇳🇦 ref for the return will have to do better… Antsino Twanyanyukwa Ndemugwanitha

Na pure robbery they do us. Chai. Organizing no fit even organize var? That Esther goal pain me

Can't wait for Ashleigh long balls to wingers

The ref killed this game aside our kinda tired look this 2nd half. JOE chance pain me. Bad idea playing Toni on wing. For just use Alozie as winger and let someone play 3 defense.

Abuja roasting next.

mostob:
Not every player will transition into management. Management has a lot to do with passion.

I know that already. I'm saying majorly that it's alien to our sports structure. Na politicians full everywhere.


For example, Bosso still dey lead cadet teams when more capable hands are all over plus worthy ex-ints that will do a better job than him.

Deltamani:
See Ghana 🇬🇭 training video, if an external body don’t do our own and post it will never be of this quality…

Nigeria Why?

Tobex should just expand that to a team of 3. They need an actual camera , a editor and a better handler. We should not be managing. In the future, imagine potential coaches getting better clips and pictures from caf and fifa about us than directly from the official page due to poor quality. They should step up. Maybe they need more embarrassing noise to step us as appeal no dey work again
