forgiveness:


Are you kidding me? He touched the ball. Go watch the replay. It should had been a straight red card.

Was he pulling? Yes or no?

Chellini wasn't the last man on the line. It cannot be classed as interrupting a goal opportunity. Yellow was d card.
The ref didn't want to repeat the Semi mistake. Besides VAR didn't even call him for a check.

This is ultra wickedness

timay:


Very shocking bro. I used to think Mctominay and Fred of Man united where shocking at ball progression, but Rice and Phillips are worse. Those Man united players are levels above them in midfield. At least Mctominay and Fred can ping incisive passes only that they are not consistent.

The fact that Maguire, Shaw and Sometimes stones are the ones progressing the ball from the back for them instead of those two midfielders, was the beginning of their problem in this tourney. Any time they met a decent team , those two guys literarily just surrender the ball to them. The sign has been there since the Pre - Euro friendly against Austria , where those ones outplayed them for 90 minutes, but won via a Penalty, happened against Croatia and Scotland too. They only manage to Outplay Czech and Ukraine in the whole tournament in midfield.

They need a bit of skill and finesse to do that. But they don't have it. I guess that's why Leeds are looking in Nwakali's direction.

Subzero047:
This is funny

Hope Saka doesn't regret playing for England. Maybe just maybe the other ones that are waiting for the 3 lions call up will change mind after Saka don see nwii finish.

daveP:



Its like telling an u17 Nacho to take the last pk for an SE semifinal game vs Egypt/Algeria. Too too much for the shoulders.

I just imagined him looking at giant Donarumma with his hands wide open. The post will just become smaller. Saka heart fall inside him belle sha. That last penalty is not for lilly livered players.

daveP:



Very Empty. Half left after the Sancho miss.


Southgate sef. Too in control of the team that the Captain is not enough Motivation for Pk.

UEFA didn't want an empty stadium in the finals, I guess why the pushed England thru. But man in the center at the finals happen to be another Collina. He just hanged England to dry. All the theatrics came to nothing. Both diving and falling na play on him dey.

Truidstar:
Southgate wants to bring in black players now..when they miss penalty na the black players dem go blame.

And it happened
ALL BLACKS

Its over

There is really a big gulf in class between the 2 teams.

Wow. Just wow. The momentum has changed. The pressure too much

Lool

Odunayaw:
Why Di Maria wan attract curse na! That 2008 still fresh for my mind!

If no be that our praying mantis GK wey fly out to no mans land leaving his post for his ancestors, Di maria for score that goal. But SIA 1 really set up that team well. Even without Taiwo and Mikel. Only Mikel in that final would have tilted the outcome.

Christology:
NBBf finally reaping the reward of hiring a good coach.

A good coach that went against our usual quota system to select the best of the best.
A system that have been killing Nigeria since 1970.
Our best in any field can challenge any best from any part of the world. Be it sports, engineering, medicine, sciences, just name it. But we re just retrogressing because of some stupid system that was brought up by some retardeens

JohnBullMySon:
AFCON is in June.

June? What of world cup?? Or am I missing something?? Qatar 2022 should be around June

AndSunGorilla:

Leave dem alone, Jesus was a carpenter, the past chairman of first bank, Ibukun Awosika na carpenter, the folawiyos are farmers, Obasanjo na farmer so what are we talking about, come and see carpenters making good money outside 9ja and even in 9ja sef. Work wey be say, una need high level of creativity and skill to do.

Creativity no dey for the cut and nail group. Tho am not a party to calling our players such names. Its degrading. Its even funny that worse European players will be hailed

maidaboi:
What if the penalty was for Nigeria

Its not really being for Nigeria or not. The player that took the penalty already have an advantage over other players. FIFA should try and remove that. Looking at it the other way, he is already offside.

Think there is need for FIFA to make changes on PK during games. This idea of the taker kicking the ball the 2nd time when Gk makes a save should be stopped in place it can only be another player, These days GK are just rooted on one spot on the line until the kick is taken. Even when they make a save, the same player will just roll it in. This needs some adjustment if I may say.

TheGoodJoe:

England – Denmark: “A non-existent penalty, at least at the level of the feet”

“This whistled penalty is non-existent for me, at least in terms of the feet,” analyzed Laurent Colemonts, former D1 referee. “I do not understand on the basis of what the VAR does not call the referee to look at the pictures. Unless the VAR considers that this is not a clear error. The only possibility of fault is the imbalance caused at the end of Sterling’s movement from Jensen. The City striker fell, however, already before contact with the Danish midfielder. ”

Even b4 VAR finish. The ref already don place ball for pk

The officials were just hell bent on pushing England to the final. Even the English Commentator has been hyping the 3 lions shouted blue murder. Such controversy that takes time b4 VAR gives verdict took less than 1min. Ref didn't even check the screen. UEFA no try at all. This one too open. Just dey like France vs N Ireland. 2010 or 2014 WC qualifier. Henry carry hand scoop ball, drop for better position then scored. The ref pointed to the center. Just for France to go thru. Shit happens in UEFA competitions anyways.

Keep d child. Inform your parents first. They will nearly kill you at first but it will all go down later. Meet the girls parents, most important thing and accept responsibility for the pregnancy. U never can tell the future. She will loose a year las las. God willing your mother will help both of you a lot in this situation. Be good to the girl during the period. U never can tell. The baby may be the source of your joy. Imagine at 40yrs your 1st is already 20.

Gerald moreno would have done a better job than this Oyazabal. Meanwhile Pedri is killing it in d middle. Such a talent.

humility33:


Rohr is not a top class coach, he is better qs a scout

What has been helping him, is that he is better sincere and his players selection is more of merit

I doubt if an indigenous coach like amuneke will not perfom wonders if he can get his selection right like rohr

Playing against mexico with this carpenters, was suicidal, infact we need thank the goal keeper if it was ezenwa i am sure it would have been 7

Rohr opened up earlier u dont play mexico with this bunch of average players if it is chan preparation why didnt them play africa teams for friendly or play some club sides in africa why the jamboree travel to the US. We just wasted an opportunity to watch the teamA players we have always played mexico for friendly most times it end up in draw. The last game we lost 1 nil and keshi used it to discover some good players for the team that was the match [b] LEON BALOGUN [b/] first played for Nigeria and Imoh Ezekiel.

Abeg leave Ezenwa outa this. I bet u he wouldn't have conceded that 3rd goal. Focus on the huff and puff season 1 that just started our week

With a little confidence, they can at least have a goal attempt. A good ball to iwuala can get them that

andrewbaba44:


We look stats with forward players and not dm ,don’t pretend as if you don’t know this ,when have we criticize ndidi or any defensive player for not scoring ?

Koke is yet to score for Spain with 54 caps

Busquets 2 goals in 127 caps

Those 2 are great players none can dare to criticize

I no understand, but na here someone said Ndidi should add goals to his game b4 he can be deemed a world class. Ayam not understanding.

JayromWrites:
Iwobi to as Roma

Paul O. To west ham

K. Nwakali to Leeds/Watford

Ndidi to man United


Una go just go carry transfer rumors from sporting life come dey dump am for here without credible links


Make una mind unaself

Philosopher1979:


Stop allowing the White man to deceive you. If nwakali went to the world cup he would have collected the midfield from Lucas modric. He could also have dominated Argentina in midfield.
He may have some "tactical deficiency" like not marking but there is no perfect player.
The way black origin players are treated is wicked. Nwakali contribution in midfield will have gotten us out of the group stage while the white man is saying he is not good enough.
2 years from now he will have improved and he will get a good team but we do not have to wait till that time.
European s can be funny.
Let us just express our African style and we will be okay

At huesca he was always on the bench and they told us he wasn't good enough. In Alcorcon he was given game time, he kept improving game after game. Now Leeds and Watford are looking at taking a gamble on him. Imagine if he was still at huesca.

Unbelievable scenes. So Spain don follow Swiss enter penalty again. Will d lightening strike twice? Whatever happens, they have earned my respect.

JohnBullMySon:
What is cruel?

Down to 10 men. With another extra time in a row.

I feel for Switzerland. This is so cruel.

OKPANAMboy:
I remember when Aphonjas were boasting on how potent their juju can be, how they can leave Nigeria if they are ready, how they fought and won the Fulanis, how they own the unity of Nigeria and can break up when they desire, how they fought DSS officers that came earlier to arrest Igboho and how they over hyped their low budget US Marine, Amotokun.

They called Nnamdi Kanu a fugitive that ran away leaving his people and also called him a coward.

They called Igbos chest beaters.

Now, who are the chest beaters?
Who's a fugitive?

Another Benin Republic loading.....
Fear-fear.

Another Arewa spotted. Divide and rule.

Imagine that Rohr invited Okoye as a division 4 player. Didn't play him, the guy returned. Fast forward boom he is in Sparta as first choice, then starts saying he wants to take his time to make a choice of country to rep. Wetin for happen to Rohr Just asking.
