Arsenate:
Just a genuinely horrible coach. A labour watching his team.
A coach with Moffi, Iheanacho, etc, should have more use for them than just waste timers.

oga give the coach his flowers, keeping those Angola attackers is not moin moin o

Congrats to the Eagles and our mourinho

we need a runner up front, time to remove oshimen

Aribo? abeg o

oshimen should convert nah

how's that offside, make ref no do us this afcon o haba

Mujtahida:
Osimhen used all his energy against Cameroun. He is physically not at his best.

I hope he's not injured

Setaleonoz:
Zaidu nor know book

na wa o

Angola stretching our boys, we may need to change tactics

Strugglingman:
Iwobi is a big fool

that was wayward of him

Unlimited22:
This réf dey smoke cannabis àbí

honestly I no understand

zaidu, we need crosses abeg

Mujtahida:
Na lie 😂😂😂. Na the tension dey make am sweet. If we qualify now, you go begin itch to watch the semi. You can't help it.

what's wrong with you, person cannot play with you again

mostob:
This match dey fear me sha. Not having a good feeling about the match. Hopefully, we come out victorious.

1. Our blue troll here making a U-turn by supporting the team.
2. Nathaniel Bassey
3. A Milo Corn calling the boys too...

wetin Nathaniel Bassey do?

Mujtahida:
I dey try encourage myself. E no easy to hold steady. It's football. Anything can happen. Like Praise said on a good day any team can get beaten. But we believe. We gats believe

that's why I am good after we reach the semi-finals today. I can't continue with this tension for the remaining games abeg

ChrisKels:
I don't just know why I dey fear today. Omo

it's the love for your country, God no go shame us

Mujtahida:
Laughter or tears, joy or pain, victory or defeat, glory or doom - we await, hopeful and positive for a good outcome.

No bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country - General George S. Patton.

this one wey una don turn philosophers today na wa o I feel you bro

Mujtahida:
What Onuachu does dey make shame catch me. As in your whole function as an attacker is to go and waste time. No single effort to try and score a goal.

he should disobey the coach? by the time he's trying to score and he loses the ball and there is a counter from the opposition that leads to a goal, na we go still abuse both the player and the coach. Let's not make fun of a tactic that can earn the team victory which is the most crucial thing after all.

Omanambala:
Mentally, I think Nigeria has upper hand in this duel. The team has gained confidence after the Cameroon match. I see us winning but the Angolans will come out with every fight left in them.

May the eagles soar!

it's a quarter-final so we may expect some fireworks but like someone has said earlier, it may turn out to be an easy game for the Eagles

Nomyth:
Samuel Eto'o : " I am still in Cote D'Ivoire learning about the next steps we need to take for us to be patriotic again.

There is something about South Africa and Angola. They play with a great deal of African based Players.

The hunger is unbelievable. They are representing Africa because they mostly play here not abroad. We will start mixing players who plays in Africa and abroad.

The level is close . Sad currently we have few who plays in south Africa, Tunisia, Morocco or Egypt.

These are good African leagues with productive development. We are now open to give Call ups to any Cameroonian who is good at his Job despite where he plays his football.

Our attention with my staff Will be to spread the net all over Africa giving a chance to every player who deserves to play for the indomitable lions. "

Samule eto needs to be more realistic, another trend in this afcon is the rise of European-born players of African origin who are now giving their all for their countries of origin, I have seen this in teams from cape verde, Equatorial Guinea, Mauritania, Guinea, and established big soccer nations like Senegal, CIV, and even Nigeria with the likes of Calvin Baseey and Aina.

Eto needs to be more open-minded in this perspective of the African game if not he will just continue to be a failed FA chairman and raise questions of ex-players becoming sports adminsitrators

Emmy450:
NFF confirms Super Eagles have been paid $30,000 each for their qualification bonuses & 20 days daily allowance.

A big motivation ahead of Angola clash.





Pooja via X.

aaah with this we expect at least 4 goals o from the Eagles

Daninya33:
His complain was that he played a crucial role in the qualifiers only to be given few minutes in the tournament proper.

the coach may have seen a better player, I get am before no be property nah.

Daninya33:
One of Angolan star player,Ben Mukendi has left the team camp and has returned to his club side in Portugal.
He was complaining of not getting enough game time in the tournament.

That's indiscipline, on a lighter note he may feel the team can't progress anymore but what is bad is bad. African players shouldn't be heard doing this.

charlesemeka85:
Why no one in this forum dey talk about the mali team in this afcon

Those guys sabi ball ooooo

I expect them to beat CIV, if not CIV may need to break bones to beat that team. They also look like a team well motivated as I saw some of their legends in the VIP box. But if they come against another strong and physical team like DRC hmmm, but seeing them in the final they will be a hard nut to crack o.

daveP:
All facts. The fact the namibians could not capitalize on that red card is enough to understand that game. Then it became 10v10. The fear of Osimhen should be their major concern. Especially with how we go long.

That’s why I laugh when someone here say we have not played stronger opponents, we all thought Equitorial Guinea was soft until they walloped both Ivory Coast and Guinea Bissau. It has taken Guinea a team who beat us just before Afcon to send a stubborn Equitorial Guinea out.

bisqit:
lies. Based on current form, we haven't really played any strong team except for ivory coast who pressed us but couldnt breach our defence. Angola will be our strongest opponent.

this is really laughable

Nostring:
Very nice but check well ,na set up...naso my wife sent me 100k on the 30th my birthday say make I take flex the day treat myself nicely...in the space of 2days I don spend almost all the money back for her 😂...she don use please help me buy this, help me buy that on your way kill me... and I no fit talk no due to her generosity few days ago..

women are proper scammer

that's a good woman you have there, appreciate her. She means well

mostob:
Don't even start with the countless gifts and promises flying around. Different organizations offering big monetary and non monetary gift

they know they can't win, hence the promises. who go waste im money?

Nomyth:
Camerounians are saying on social media that the times we've beaten them in AFCON we have failed to make it to the finals.

Who ask them? Make dem keep quiet jare

Imagine their coach also saying he’s not convinced Nigeria is good enough to win afcon, they are all indirectly mocking their team but they don’t know, dem no get sense at all

COOL10:
True.

Some of them are already envisioning a final against Nigeria.

It's my prayer that they continue to underate Cape Verde, so that on that day, they'll find themselves conceding long range shots from BEBE and his counterparts.

that's the problem with South Africa, one win they will just assume they can beat everybody, even we no dey too make noise like that. When they lose you now see them venting anger against the entire continent. Funny people

COOL10:
He did mention that psychological block. He said it's no longer there. He believes they've defeated it .

For him to mention, it means it's still there. He's just using the win over Morrocco to gain confidence

daveP:
The question naysayers should ask is

Is the Angolan backline solid enough?

The way some of you dey fear them is exact the way dem dey fear Osimhen and Lookman upfront. Not to talk of Aina. Our most obvious weaklink is nobody but Zaidu. If they focus on his wing and put up bodies there, it will still be to their detriment. The spaces Mabu and Gelson have seen so far, i doubt the Eagles defense will allow them see it. Not even on counter against us. We just need to be clinical. That's all.

In addition, we've played stronger oppositions than the Angolans in this tournament, and you're right their defence is suspect, if the Namibians were a bit clinical they would have conceded two goals against them, I watched that game.
