ThePresenceWtf:
� � � � and yet we have a Collegiate soccer coach as a national teach team Coach....Lol

Naija sef. Shege Central

On a norms, this female cadet team jobs should have women as top priority for the job. It will foster a growing system of more female coaches in Nigeria.

That Linda Caicedo will definitely go to the world cup next year.

We can't say same for any 3players from the combo of our u17 and u20 teams. Add the Coach we have for the Super Falcons right now and it becomes even worse.

BascoVanVeli:
Mosaku has not been with us since the quarterfinals. I don't understand why he kept her in the game.

For me i would have rather put Adeshina on the wing than take her out and leave Mosaku.

A clueless coach that has barely been silent from the touchline for 10mins in over 400mins of football would never see that. I doubt he even feels like he has a bench.

Deltamani:
For the first time in few months you said something applaudable to me… Coaching Coaching Coaching is one of the problems of Nigeria Football as a whole…

Imagine Germany U17 girls team been Coached by a UEFA Pro License holder ( The highest Coaching badge in Europe), while Nigeria team same can’t be said of..

A very sad and horrifying fact. They can't even read a game their opponents' formation and tactics and how to neutralize it in an instant. This archaic format of maintaining your initial formation sef ehn.


Besides, in this competition, we used 442 majorly. All pf a sudden, he changed it to 532. That 532 made Bello and Etim(bad pairing) to be up front.


To make matters worse, he subbed off the same Bello that makes our attack tick and left both Moshaku and Etim on. Ajakaye could barely make any impact. The understanding Bello has with her, into thin air.

532 changed to 433
Not even the usual 442 he's been using all through the game. Making Afolabi Totally overwhelmed in the middle. Then that bench just has no lifeline. Ineptitude of the highest.


The NFF has to start demanding for the best if we want to move up. But quota system veil will continue to deceive them. What next for him now?

codemaniacs:
If there is anyone to blame its the coaching crew and the coach himself...

the coaching crew were busy praying instead studying the Columbian goalkeeper strong side and informing the girls since the Flamingoes themselves didn't notice it...

The coach and coaching crew were relying on prayers and luck instead of teaching and coaching the Flamingoes about looking for weaknesses the opposition team have..

Totally agree.

I guess the idea of training sessions is one warped and old school format in the head of most local coaches. We kept doing as if we are experts in pk-meaning we supposed to have that in training



The Late Yemi Tella's u17 that became champs that year, we were glad to hear thar they took hours training for pk immediately the KO stages began. Now if they were all scared, those hours will increase confidence so fast, especially for the Gk. Only to hear from commentator that Bankole no even get pk list, and then seeing nobody eager to go take a pk. Yes, it happens. But just shows the cluelessness of this particular coaching crew. They just allow presido to waste flight money.

Baba wan turn Sarri wey dey bring in Kepa whenever Chelsea enter PK

BascoVanVeli:
Adeshina and Bello should not have been taken out of the game. I don't get the favouritism towards Mosaku. She has not been in the last 2 games.

His stupid formation at the beginning caused it all. 532. So to revert back to a 433, he had to take out Adeshina. I barely saw any connect with Etim and Ajakaye after that switch. Mosaku disappears like wind. Maybe those birds picked her and flew away.

AndSunGorilla:
Let me see if there will be a revival on the field today. Am not against prayers o, but the way we think in Nigeria, we expect God to do everything for us, now since they lost, would they say God forsook them?
Back to the match, the better and deserving team won, qed.

Columbia too are very religious sef. They were praying too.

Their coach kept kissing his cross.

A pity. It now looks like the Asst Coach, that taller dark man, is the ginger of the girls.

mostob:
This girl dey do like loser. You don already know she go miss penalty even before she took it

She chose the same corner that she missed vs Usa. Chai. At least copy Usani's style if you no sabi take pk. It's a fast way to take pk. They should allow Alima play 3rd place abeg.

Another hard truth is that one would have expected the ginger from defeating the favourites, Usa, to be seen in this team. Rather, we saw a rather funny formation to start with. 532. Bello and Etim upfront(terrible combo. Very terrible)


Afolabi was in the centre of the field and got absolutely exhausted and still, no sub to breathe energy or life. None!!! Blessing and even Edafe were just surviving. Like , in this heat?? Do they have Nitro?


See, I've said it at the beginning. We are lucky. Hopefully, they do something to get a medal.

lovewins:
Losing isn't great, but let's take it easy on the girls.

First, it is a developmental competition, so mistakes are expected to be made

Secondly, anyone who watched the girls from the beginning knew they got to this stage 50% by share luck. The luck ran out today.

The most important thing is that we take lessons from this and build from here. Also, we need to pay cognizance to the development and growth of these girls (at the very least, those with enough potentials to grow into th next stage).

Yes it is a development stage. But it is for the team that will lift the trophy too.

I agree with the sheer Luck aspect sha.

mostob:
The biggest blame goes to Edafe IMO. Immediately she lost that kick, Nigeria crashed out because that totally ripped the confidence of the team apart.

That's true. More like her teammates believe in her as the best taker of this team. This makes me applaud Usani for doing differently this time. Folorunsho though ..

mostob:
Bro..the guy is a troll. Ignore him....

Obviously. He thinks its time to play diplomat wey sabi calm person down. Clown!

AkinDS:
Shouldn't that be on the Goalkeeping coach to have mapped out a strategy on what to do with each penalty?
Couldn't he have devised a plan during training with Jiwuaku on signals from the bench on which side to focus on?
The keeper needed guidance and didn't get it from the coaching staff.
Instead, we had prayer warriors on the bench, hoping on fasting and praying to see us through.

Gusau shows up and the team incurs a loss.

Absolutely. I saw none. Like this is exactly what I'm talking about. The cluelessness of this coaching crew. She obviously showed she lacked any info to help her. Even if she doesn't know where, at least how to go with each pk. This entire pk shows the lack of anticipation from this coach. It's obvious there were no training sessions for specifically this moment. If there were, with the open chance for taking pk, the players aren't Supposed to be reluctant.


Abi this man thinks these are experienced pros ni?

Samueltemi337:
A clueless coach took his team to the semi finals for the first time in their history


yeah he is really clueless

I don't need to further engage you.

Samueltemi337:
Now the coach is clueless

Have you been following my comments since the first game? If you have you would know it's not because of this pk loss.

Samueltemi337:
To go and do what in the finals?

To face Germany na.

Two defenders missed their kicks. Chai. Edafe too suppose chill.

Well the bigger blame rests on Jiwuaku. She no just wan choose side to follow even if it ends up in the net

Sincerely,the better team won.


As i heard this Clueless Coach didn't have a PK list, i knew we were finished in India. Once bitten, twice shy.


He can't even practice pk and select them from training after the usa game


He dey dere dey knee dan dey pray. Mtchewww

Jiwuaku didn't act like any pk specialist today. She dived for just 2. The rest she just stood. Rubbish.


Sad that nobody wanted to come forward for a pk. It looks like its natural, but it reflects the mental state of this squad under tension.


Alhaji just watch hin girls lose sha. Eeyah.

Samueltemi337:
Make them put this girl na



she can't be worst than Folorunsho

Lol. Abeg o. Folorunsho dey ball rubbish too. But so far, she's saved this entire team even when Omilana don travel to outer space. I don't know why Alima hasn't gotten minutes though. Overall, she vibes well with her teammates

mostob:
Why has Alvin not been playing sef...
Na rubbish usani dey play jare

Usani on the right has been rubbish so far. On the left, our only shot at goal was from her. That right side just dey bring nonsense play so far. Moshaku and Afolabi have no understanding sincerely.


As for Etim, i do hope she gets some talking to. But she had one chance and no single white shirt was in the box to receive a cross or pass. Same old same old palava. Funny enough, the Columbians are sitting back but we haven't utilized.

isan:
Folorunsho doesn't even do like a footballer

She's been shaky. Thank God for Edafe Clearance. Etim and Bello no click. This should be first match together. This coach sef. If Bello's through balls are to get better finishing, she needs a pacy player. Looks like Afolabi's roaming is leaving the marking to Blessing.


I hope Linda Caicedo doesn't punish us this 2nd half. Even our Gk dey clueless but made some good saves. We need to be lethal in the box. Sadly... All tournament, we haven't.

Jodera:
I thought we should even be happy that we have different goalscorers and that if Jesus can just improve on his finishing (the only thing I feel is missing recently from his game since the chances are being created for him on a steady), we'll become an even more unpredictable and difficult team to handle. I mean, isn't that a hallmark of a top and dominant team, where goals can come from anywhere and any angle?

But then, I see what we want is the one only where our striker will be scoring goals only. Let us be a one-man team I guess.

It's alright!!

GJ sometimes overdo. The cutting ish has denied him 5 goalscoring chances alone this season. Just shoot and bury it. No! He go cut again.



Haaland and Jesus Drought na fatigue excuse we dey hear for both.


Sincerely we have too many romance with the edge of the box to not be getting as many goals as City. Overdo just dey enter am and it's annoying. Na why i love Xhaka. Once it comes to him, he's fired it.

Samueltemi337:
Y'all hype these girls alot in this thread


I hope they sack Waldrum soon so y'all will realise that he is not the only problem

we aren't hyping the girls. They don't get that much hype to be sincere. Some get the stick well. But this man looks like he is set out to play second fiddle to every footballing nation we encounter. He oozes it and talks like it and doesn't talk on the pitch.


We can sack him and get 2 managers that will still get sacked for no delivery. But it will be obvious who has the defeatist mentality Everytime he speaks. How does he even inspire these ladies to start with?

lovewins:
The same pessimistic, uninspiring and self-defeatist mindset. It is consistent with ALL his press conferences. Imagine him describing Nigeria qualifying from tb group as "surviving".

He talks more like a pundit in an EPL studio than a manager. I won't be surprised he doesn't know his players by name, position. They should get this man off our team.


And someone on here wants to use the excuse of the game in Africa is developing and others are catching up to cover his dumb talks....
If he can't inspire belief in this team, even if they are inadequate, he should getat. We take too much rubbish from guys like this. Argghhhh.

A joke


Whenever our Club sides go for Away Matches vs North African teams, the development and urbanization leaves them bewildered and they forget they were there to play ball.

Deltamani:
Waldrum reacts to Super Falcons World Cup draw


Randy Waldrum believes nine-time African champions Nigeria can pull through a tough Group B of the FIFA Women’s World Cup finals in Australia and New Zealand next year if they continue on the tangent of regular top-grade friendly matches and camping programs.

“I have mixed feelings because it is a difficult group. Host nations are almost always difficult to play, and more than that, Australia is a fantastic team. Also, we have the Olympic champions, Canada in our group. We played the Canadians recently in two friendly matches and I know they are highly motivated for the World Cup.

“I know some of Canada’s players very well. Then, we have the Republic of Ireland. It is a tough group but I think it is the same with most of the groups. It is the FIFA World Cup so you are bound to play the strongest teams. All the groups are difficult and you know, there are so many good teams these days: that is where we are and it is a great thing for the women’s game.”

The American insists that the Super Falcons have the talent, guts, and ambition to cause a storm at the finals scheduled for nine cities across Australia and New Zealand from 20th July – 20th August next year.

“We have, no doubt, the talent to survive in this group. We just need adequate preparations such as the regular friendly matches during international breaks, and then the training camps. The girls are ambitious; they want to give their best at the World Cup. I trust that they will do Nigeria proud.”

I'm i the only one that get pissed at how he talks? Which kine coach we carry for Heaven's sake?

Choose one of these for January

sod09:
I don't know how God will not punish this useless ref
Arteta should work on his boys our second half is below par and goals are drying up

That Nketiah chance that Odegaard set him up, that ended as CK, do you know that Odegaard had the space to shoot himself? Well, stale draw. 1-0 don turn 1-1. Regardless, we need freshness in their lungs

sod09:
You got what you wanted
Happy now?

lol. I should not be scared expecting my gk to be tested na. Is that a bad wish?

66hrs diff in matches played. He should stop making it compulsory to use his best legs in Europa. Let Nketiah sef play 140mins in last 2 group games abeg. Beginning to hate this GJ drought.

sod09:
Bros this your analysis is anti arsenal
Are you for us or disguising

I no get time to explain. We had a good 1st half
