BascoVanVeli:
Samuel Nnoshiri is a good player. He is more of a striker than a winger. Good technical ability very good passer of the ball and an eye for goal. Not too tall but well balanced on the ground.

This Nnochiri dude has been invited by Aigbogun ooo

Ahmad Ahmad vision of African Football is coming to fruition....How i wish to see a score line like this

Madagascar 2-1 Senegal
Tanzania 4-1 South Africa
Kenya 2 - 1 Ghana

I just finished watching clips of Tanzania vs Uganda match.....most of the exciting moves by Tanzania were from the wings....

By the way.. our u23 will qualify...last minute goal loading

Ghana is on the rise ooo....her u23 team scored the highest number of goals oooo and senior team won too

Akwaaba

this man is really pdp man since Obasanjo...he has been there...never defected...very loyal to pdp

Where is that moniker that is awed by Ivory Coast? Food is ready
Let him or her enjoy these scorelines

U23

Niger 1-2 Ivory Coast

Afcon

Ivory Coast 3-0 Rwanda

Meanwhile u23 again

Ghana 4-0 Gabon

Enjoy this...particularly that penalty by Venezuala....

During the w/c qualifiers that Venezuelan goalkeeper was a monster but side defence killed him

edi287:
Just saw Uzoho's clanger...unacceptable for a goal keeper at his level.
The best of the best make mistakes but what was he thinking??

Have you seen Thibaut Courtoi mistakes for Belgium and Real Madrid...thank God it did not happen during an important match

Rerun and inconclusive elections are more violent than the main elecetion.. I wonder who important that `cancelled votes being higher than the margin of winning`...so cancelled votes count now...thats it


E-voting please....Senegal had an election...the result came out under 7 hours

I THINK WE HAVE BAD DEFENCE TOO,NOT JUST GOALKEEPING PROBLEMS...Judge this

If our u23 plays in this Asaba pitch we may lose...The size of the pitch will help the Libyan to be compact....and the state of the turf will be against us.....either way,we are in hot soup

These are the foreign based pros invited by Ghana to play Gabon tomorrow in u23 qualifier


Benjamin Tetteh (Sparta Prague, Czech Republic), Isaac Twum (IK Start, Norway), Kwabena Owusu (Salamanca CF, Spain), Musah Nuhu (FC St. Gallen, Switzerland), Majeed Ashimeru (FC St. Gallen, Switzerland), Kingsley Fobi (UD Ibiza, Spain), Yaw Yeboah (CD Numancia, Spain), Joseph Paintsil (KRC Genk, Belgium), Gideon Mensah (SK Sturm Graz, Austria) and Osman Bukari (AS Trencin, Slovakia),Benard Tekpetey(Paderborn,Germany)


This Yaw Yeboah i thought would have been in a great club...dude has a great left foot...seems he is GHANA S VERSION OF IHEANACHO

U23 results today



NIGER 0-0 IVORY COAST
ANGOLA 1-3 SOUTH AFRICA
MOZAMBIQUE 0-0 ZIMBABWE

klexycole:
Every match is taken seriously. You only know of what's posted on social media. The background work might not be open to us.

Let's keep our fingers crossed and hope the U23 boys hit the Libya boys by surprise. It's never too late.

So you are asking me to chill? Anyway i feel like ordering all eligible u23 in Super Eagles to drop to u23 WITH IMMEDIATE EFFECT in Idi Amin s voice

I am still surprised that Seychelles match that is of no consequence is receiving more attention from Rohr and NFF than u23

Why ?

Oasis007:


We are on the verge of missing out in the next U23 AFCON as well as Tokyo 2022, yet Dudes are discussing about Zaha..... As If Zaha is a Nigerian Messi that may come to the Rescue of the U23 Team.

This is a Level where the Nation is well endowed with Gems, real Talents, thus missing out in any of the Tournaments is a big Disaster to the Nigeria football.

Omeruo, Awaziem should be drafted to the Team, Uzoho also should be the one manning the Posts. I don't know how, but U23 Team must win and qualify for the next Round.

All `experienced` players who are u23 should just join them...no time wasting....this game is on Monday...i cannot imagine a whole generation that is still siver not becoming golden...it begins with this u23....lets do what we did to Kenya....we need good headers of the ball too

The moment Iheanacho left Man City...his stock fell....rose again for few moments...then crashed finally....
i am surprised that he is still a topic here....he is like Japaul Oil and Gas Plc stock in the Nigeria Stock Exchange.......it needs new investors or hostile take-over

komekn:
Do you know where they are being live streamed if at all and or what TV stations might be showing the games.

Meanwhile l am watching England U21 give Poland a football lesson.

I am talking about this in the context of the Nigerian U23 selection. In this England team that has 18 year old players who have two seasons of first team football under thier belts.

There is a tendency in our U23 selection to use players from Europe who are essentially academy players, and rely on past youthful glories, Nwakali is a classic example. In my opinion that's not good enough we need better.

In this England team we have two undiluted NAIJA boys in Ademola Lookman and Fikayo Tomori these guys have been playing competitively for 4 seasons plus.

Tomori is arguably the best young CB in the Championship, he is that good. We all know Ademola Lookman who Everton rejected a near £30 million offer from Liepzig for last season.

Lets wait till tomorrow to see what will come up on websites. For now no info on places to watch them... As you said...i normally use Atlanta 96 squad as reference to what u23 is...Players who have gone to senior world cup but still under 23 are called up to play it...ATLANTA 96 had Nation s Cup winners....u23 is not for players who are playing in the b team of top clubs ooo...Nwakali is out of it...u23 is Awaziem s level...Ndidi,Uzoho,yes Uzoho,Collins Super Eagles left back,infact ALL THOSE WHO WENT TO THE LAST WORLD CUP WHO ARE U23 SHOULD JOIN THE CAMP....The u23 is not u20 that you play with young professionals.....it is a much more serious business...so i align with what you said...we must go for broke in the second leg....win or bust....I remember a certain Olympic qualifier that we needed four unreplied goals to qualify....Ebiede was in action....We got the last goal at the last second....Westerhof eeeee

AroOkigbo:
The lizard of Ubima will be disgraced.
Rivers state is PDP!

Point of correction....the wall gecko of Ubima

Angola vs South Africa
Niger vs Ivory Coast
Ghana vs Gabon

More result of u23 matches


Ethiopia 1 1 Mali

Curtisaxel7:
Useless baseless self-deceiving optimism.

Just what folks here want to hear.

state your position...what is your opinion about our u23? Proffer a solution

Surprise....no Libyan player players in any first division in top 10 leagues in Europe....the best plays in Serie b for Crotone

It is well...

#WE MUST GO TO TOKYO 2022

in italian language..the word `fingesi` means fake...not even tokunmbo

Good morning gentle women and gentle men my joy is that these players are not going back to Europe...they will be together for four good days...they will train morning and evening...though not enough but something good will come out of it.....2-0 well not a mountain to climb...but if we had scored one goal like Senegal did in Guinea..though they lost....it would have been better....

I still insist the u23 is not for amateurs in Europe....it is for those who are u23 EVEN IF THEY HAVE PLAYED IN THE WORLD CUP BUT STILL U23...COME ON JOIN THE PARTY....it is not only for young foreign based....so let us unearth our best in u23 to power past Libya...yes we can


To be sincere Libya played a more organised football..

We have capable players to execute the second leg...i think from the first half till the red card was given...we lacked bite....no one crossed the ball....no wing play....It was as if some players were hiding...whenever Azubuike gets the ball...he will be looking endlessly...turning and turning to see whom to pass the ball to...Nwakali as always did not help him at all...we lacked speed...no long range shots,,,free kicks by Nwakali were ALL MESS.....there was no coordinated attack....passes were slow...positioning was eyesore...no organization...no plan...The Libyans i believe knew before hand that we will come at them through the wings...they just crowded and clipped our wingers....The Libyans did not give us any space...GENERALLY..I DID NOT SEE OUR USUAL FLAIR...ZEST....SPEED...SKILL...PURPOSE...Were we playing a friendly match?

tbaba1234:
Libya came with a clear plan, defend in numbers and counter.

You are right...but i think our boys did not apply speed...Sevilla type of speed.... i saw a slow build up all through

Libya was playing as if they were away...why defend with seven men at home?...Hopefully we equalise and they come out...then game go set

Nobody ever said here that Libya will be beaten in Tunisia...we were just happy with the caliber of players invited and that they looked younger than the u21 team sef..no cause for alarm....they just need to play together more....and we have more experienced u23s on the line too...Kalu..Onyekuru..Osimhen..et al...relax

just 28mins gone and someone,a new moniker for that matter is saying "after all the hype"

Wait TILL WE LOSE THE MATCH...Then you can make noise..

After return leg..they send us away...then you can say 'AFTER ALL THE HYPE"

Libya 1 Nigeria 0
