Goke7:
Morocco wan kill Zambia

Boufal especially. Then the Two Hakimis anytime setpieces are up. And they are so dangerous with it. I still feel Zambia will equalize. But how did so much moroccans travel from home to here? See numbers!! They go pass 7k in this stadium tonight.

Morrocco style of attack

Pick a wing, advance with wing overload and quick use of space
And
Waste it.

Zambia content with Counter.

dijon:
Ekambi is not a midfielder. Unnecessary panic mode again....pls relax..the SE is on track...

No jump na. Relazzz. Where is the panic in what i wrote now? Where did i write that he's one? 😕

Na Zirkzee be the Striker target sha. But 50m for Summer. Meaning expect nothing this January asides outgoing.

This kind of tarr doesn't last. So road is the new look? They'll not put streetlights or check if water supply is needed?

If Rigobert Song use the defensive setup we used vs CIV to play us, do we have the grits to crack it down? This KO stage, we will need OTHER attacking threats asides VO to prosecute reaching the final, in game.

What's the midfield setup that will neutralize Ekambi and Anguissa?

BankyGee:
Maybe them edit their players bah? 😂😂

Lol. Maybe. They are bold and daring. More like the so called "Respect them" mantra that many chant is useless this afcon. Respect ko. Play ball i play ball.

safarigirl:
We cannot take this form to a Knockout stage.


Good morning guys

Cape Verde too clinical. Phew. I pray they don't score us first. All those tension gets worse and the Nigerian fans may do worse than the ivorians that went riot nights ago if they mess up.

mank1234:
CIV will likely still qualify.

With that goal difference? I doubt.


Make Mauritania no kon shock Cape Verde o. All those teams on the extreme Western Coast, who is bankrolling their football revolution? E reach to ask

Cape Verde
Guinea
Mauritania
Bissau

Mauritania will qualify ahead of CIV. O boy. Another powerhouse bites the dust. The energy in their veins...truly they need be checked for some form of enhancers. Lol.

comodo:
Abeg where this Mauritania come from. They should be checked for drugs abeg

I like their game. Reminds me of Iheanacho set of u17. That quick transition and decision making as they approach the box👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

This AFCON get as e be. Won't be surprised if we get a totally new winner. Group C is the only group finishing with a powerhouse on top. The rest just get as e be-underdogs, 🃏 and the daredevils topping. Will Morocco join Egypt tomorrow or they'll follow Algeria comot?

minfelix:
no be same onana see 4goals enter him post for uyo and he still see 3goals enter him post for 2019 afcon.🤣🤣

Lol. Na him. But ondoa fit keep sha. But na dilemma for Song. Be like na onana better😆

Either way, it's all in our hands. For me, I'll prefer the plan B to be sharper than plan A. Lookman and Iwobi need to score our 2nd open play goal.

That moment Onana suddenly discovers form vs Nigeria. These countries shoulder dey rise once na SE. They better destroy that leaky Cameroon defense. Anguissa and Ekambi may be a problem in middle. The 343 should work well for us.

Someone said Osimhen go miss the Ekambi goal. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nice banter. Anguissa don bring out the rigobert song spirit in this team. Can Gambia do anything except draw?

chrisooblog:
For real I hope we don't jam that ref again with her nonsense calls.

No mind her. The lines women were impressive though. If na man, that their equalizer fit don count.

Mujtahida:
He's not even a striker for his club. He's a RB!

Asin. That team has loads of influence from Spanish football. The way they all drift into spaces so that advancing into the box is not by any individual skill is applaudable. It's still painful that they scored 9 and na 3 we score.

Nsue's conversion rate at this AFCON will make one really vex with our forwards.

Benefit?

NONE!!!!

You want to involve the natives so that disgruntled criminals will be hungry for revenge if things go awry??

Declare the kidnapping biz as one to face electric chair/firing squad and watch it reduce. No prison term.

Icon4s:
There is a slight hope for Ghana to secure qualification for the round of 16.

These three conditions have to be met at the same time:

◾️Zambia MUST lose to Morocco
◾️DR Congo must draw or win against Tanzania
◾️Cameroon MUST draw with Gambia

It's kinda a huge relief that we aren't the ones using calculator at this point. Anything can happen but see permutations and combinations wey dey give headache😂

EEGA:
In order to get to the semi finals of the tournament, Iheanacho needs to take Chukwueze's position on the right.

He might be recovering. But Chuks end product is anticipated as no threat mostly. Doesn't even track Osimhen runs.

mostob:
You said we have so much chances but are wasting them and at the same time you apportioned the bigger part of the blame to the coach. I don't understand o. Na the coach go enter field to score?

The way he set up that midfield to start with. Aribo? 😰😰
Osayi?? Well. These two played rubbish, i started wishing Aina returned back to his RWB side. Also exposed Onyeka(might be a blessing in disguise).

Samueltemi337:
When Peserio dey play two strikers Na una dey complain
Now Na the same two strikers una dey find again
Wetin una really want sef

who is the una? I no join them complain for that one o. I apportion the large part on him for still utilizing those two and refusing to pressure them to do something worthwhile upfront asides Osimhen. Osimhen is creating space for them but they don't poach the box. That is something they ought to do. Perhaps the main guys are injured or something. But those two, if possible, throway them.

Icon4s:
Osimhen is the reason why we are not winning by wider margins. It is not Peseiro that will come and help Osimhen convert those chances.

Question is "Are we creating enough chances?, Yes. Are we converting them? We don't convert most.

My only problem with Peseiro is his lack of options in the midfield. Asides that, he has set up the team not to lose which is pretty much what you need at the knockout stage

But remove same Osimhen too, what goal threat do the others bring? That is worrisome. It would be hilarious if nacho resumes and suddenly become 2nd attacking threat asides Victor. Those 2 wingers are off, unimpressive. How simon won motm still dey muzz me.

BankyGee:
He was the highest rated player in the match, 8.3 and the only goalkeeper with two clean sheets in this AFCON, but your people go still whine and complain.

Just imagine. Meaning we have succeeded with 50% of our tournament assignment already. It now remains the other half

Icon4s:
I don comot since na. I even sat on same table with a white guy. Him self dey condemn the Ghanaian team that dey lack quality
Ghana is in serious mourning

Better. They are dragging Ayew 10, starting from u20days. O boi!! 🤣🤣🤣

Ayew 10 vs Aribo 10

Birds of a feather

Icon4s:
See, the way this Nigerian team is setup we will give any team in this AFCON headache

This means it is majorly Peseiro problem.

Like 70% on coach
30% on players
Because how we have so much chances and not finishing them in sleek mode needs studying. Osimhen should work on his offside. But that Zaidu goal should not have been chalked off.

We will give headache because we sabi prevent scoring. But if they hack how to stop our main man, who steps up? That's the fear.

Icon4s:
Omo, I am presently in Accra. The way Ghanaian fans are ranting here eh. Make them no kill that Ofori of a keeper when he returns o. The funny thing is they kept comparing their team with Nigeria while speaking their native language
The whole drama just dey sweet my belle I was just looking at them as if to sympathize with them but I just dey laugh inside

Abeg comot befar they use Shout finish you o😂😂😂

safarigirl:
I don't even have any grand hopes, just taking things one game at a time, because I have seen virtually every team in this tournament play and omo, we dey gba.

Proper Haram football, Mourinho would be proud.

😂😂😂😂 truly its big lows and big highs. No medium delivery of anything they are offering. Cape Verde will give us big problems, especially with that their sleek transition into boxes. 1 open play goal and from 1 attacker alone shows the other attackers are not offering any bite. Emenike has Ideye. It's time Osimhen gets his own telepathic Ideye if we want to win this.

If you study the pattern of this Afcon, leads don't last. That's where you gats commend our defenders o. Because explain how 2-0 turn 2-2 or 2-3 in barely 5-12 minutes of a game. The consistent theme of this Afcon.

The Thriller!!

mrwilliams9:
Watching the highlights of all our matches and to be honest, we just need to get our finishing in order and we are good.

Osimhen missed a clear 1v1 against Eq G, missed another 1v1 against CIV and missed 2 clear headers against Guniea B.

He buries those chances and its:

2-1 win to Eq G
2-0 win to CIV
3-0 win over Guniea B

Our team is creating enough chances to win the game, we just need to be clinical. 1-0 is all you need to advance in the KO rounds and to win an AFCON.

Defense wins championships at the end of the day. But our attack needs to give us something to defend to begin with.

I hope they set this up fast. See the two headed chances Osimhen suppose bury. Those kind misses are painful when we are behind. Iheanacho back in lineup might just be our turnaround.

safarigirl:
LOL

Nobody on this continent can ever want Nigeria to win any major tournament. You lot are insufferable even when you lose, how much more if you win.

You're part of us now. Haba. Lol.

Anyhow it goes, we will be there.
