Experience good oo. See that Egptian defender take rod Onuachu elbow cone lie down as if dem knack am hammer.

Goal ball

Boring match.

I hope we can convince Chukwuemeka. Former Chelsea player.

I don't understand. Both Osimhen and Lookman have the opportunity to win highest goal scorer and best player respectively, something that can be won in a life's time but you decided to play none contenders. Why?

Are these enemies of progress or kind of .....I don't understand?

kingphilip:
You're right about that sha especially at club level with that monstrous record he held at Lille or which club was that again?

You got it. Lille.

kingphilip:
See record o.

He might overtake Enyeama in 1st if he continues his good showing against Egypt and retains his number 1 shirt in next years AFCON.

But he can't beat Enyeama status as Legend.

Goke7:
no be so we dey beg and praise Ghana yesterday because of the ref upon all we still collect, make CAF getat

Hahahahahahahahaha! d thing backfire but abeg make we try pamper CAF small until the verdict.

Goke7:
Osayi had to pass a late fitness test to play the game yesterday. I heard it from some foreign analysts, in fact, in the game against Algeria dude was limping to complete that game.

My point is, Aina can't simply walk into our starting line-up easily again; he has to fight for that shirt now, and the team is looking more competitive as we now have more options. Who would have thought that a whole Chukwueze will chop bench tire at this afcon. Na this overhype of some certain players dey affect us at times, see the Onyedika we thought was class, now we know he can't displace Ndidi easily. Aina is welcome back anytime, but he must earn it now.

I see, but don't be deceived. Aina will walk straight into Chelle's starting 11.

I never rate Chuks to start because he has barely impressed in green white green. Na una dey overhype players.

Did you see me make any comment about Onyedika? I don't discuss with I am not sure of.

Please, don't drag CAF President and CAF. We still get appeal for FIFA ooooo.

CAF did very well in the organization of this tournament. The officiating was superb.

Blueelf:
But Aina isn't world class

Anyways...we move

Did you read "Aina is world class" in my comment? He is definitely above average and better than Osayi. That's fact. No doubt Osayi showed up in this tournament. He also good is a contender for the position but with Aina, Aina would had done better.

Goke7:
how injury free where those who played yesterday, including osayi

Is there any report Osayi played with injury? At least, we heard about the injury of Aina and after that final, he went missing from Nottingham Forest starting 11.

lbrichman2:
Offensively maybe, but defensively?
I no sure o
Osayi really played ball o

Both defensively and offensively, he is better. Let us no sugar-coat it.

Blueelf:
Hmmm

Are you sure ebony?

Why not? You saw how Hakimi dictated from the back. That is a world class player.

Goke7:
Aina wey see shege for last Afcon final from a teenager that didn’t make the current Ivory Coast team 😂

So, you are not aware he played with injury.

lbrichman2:
Omo..
Una sure say Aina go still walk into this first 11?
E be like say Osayi don build house for that RB position o
Locked Amoura
Found it tougher yesterday but still held his own
Even when dribbled, he recovered superbly to put the ball out for a corner
This defence is sweeting me..

Not to mention Ajayi and General Bassey Bus stop!!!

In a big game like this, Aina would had done better offensively and defensively.

BankyGee:
I swear 😂

Or maybe he dey talk about us wey watch the match, because I'm very sure none of us watched the match while standing 😂

I tire for am ooo.

Joezinho:
Always gets injured right before PKs. Always!! Stay on the pitch for fvcking crying out loud!!!

Freaking weak and coward mentality. If you miss, you miss.. Fans might be upset but at least you had the courage to take the shot. Letting defenders or substitutes take penalties instead of you should never happen even if you’re injured or tired. Stand up and take it!!! Dude is never a point of difference to get us any trophy anyways.

dem apoty players fall hand.

TheGoodJoe:
Example of a high press. Did you see us press like this today?

There was oga.

TheGoodJoe:
We did not press the defense with intensity. They could beat it because our press was poor.

That was in the first half though. However, I agree no intensity but I think the coach didn't trust his bench hence the need to preserve energy.

TheGoodJoe:
The point is breaking play.

The Moroccans were not the side to play the possession game and keep the ball. If not they would have easily dominated possession. They were direct with their play.

The point is us not going to stop them from building from the back.

We sat back and let them do that. Just that when they came, we broke them down. Unfortunately, when we broke them down, we were too far to cause problems.

Gerrit?

That's why I said you didn't watch the match. We did exactly what you said but they found a way to play out of it. What were you expecting?

TheGoodJoe:
We sat back. I watched the game. The Moroccans built with ease.

You no watch the match. How can SE sit back and still had more possession and passes?

TheGoodJoe:
We sat back. What stopped us from pressing the Moroccans when they were with ball. How many times did you see us pressing the defenders when they were with ball.

This is indefensible.

Sat back ke? You sure say you watched de match?

lbrichman2:
All those fouls the red gave against us would have been worse if we were pressing
I could count up to 8 questionable calls..

Twice Osayi was hacked down, even Iwobi, not even a card!!

Our boys did well
CAF just wants Morocco to win
That's all

Now if Chuks had buried that penalty, we would have scattered that script

That ref was poor. It was not only Osayi and Iwobi. Almost all our players. That foul against Lookman should had earned the Moroccan a card. That would had reduced their press and jidigbo play.

TheGoodJoe:
We should have expected it and stuck to ours.

As far as I am concerned, Chelle let us down.

Oga! We had more of the ball in the second half but the Moroccans set up was deep into their half and they placed 2 to 3 players on a player with the mission to press, press and press which caused them to loose the ball.

And if you noticed, once they get back the ball, they moved swiftly to counterattack or play long balls. In, this situation, you manage what you have instead of playing into their plan. We don't have players that can withstand press, so what you do is keep finding space for pass or long balls and that was exactly what SE did.

TheGoodJoe:

I have seen Evans match Drogba in the tummy and Drogba got sent off.

Of course, I saw that but why? The ref messed the flow of our game.

yinkeys:
Even in the vlogs he jokes too much

Dat boy with all him talent suppose grow up.

TheGoodJoe:
Keep pressing. Let the referee keep giving fouls. Better than sitting back and allowing them with the ball. Sitting back gives us little to know chance to attack.

Did you see the foul that caused the yellow card given to Bassey? Dude was pulled down yet received yellow. I never saw that before.

TheGoodJoe:
What about us? What stopped us from pressing? It just doesn't make sense.

I hope Chelle learns.

As soon as I saw that let them have the ball comment, my morale just fell.

What stopped us from pressing and stopping the Moroccans from building play.

Jidgbo football wey Morocco dey play against our players yet ref blew against us when it was obvious Moroccans fouled.

I never see this kind of poor officiating in my life. Ghanian ref showed bias towards us. Very poor officiating.

Dem suppose get 5 yellows.

Chukwueze Chukuweze

Why dem dey chop chin gum?

Arrogant play by Chuks.
