CIV is seeing red 2-0

lbrichman2:
The referee was massive today!
Very decisive and refused to be bullied by the Algerians
Took charge of the game really well and asserted his authority..

Massive performance by the referee!
Maximum respect!

Our boys too ensured that they started talking to the referee from the first minute to prevent the Algeriansfrom intimidating him

Odunayaw:
Egypt don score ke

Ah

make CIV dey go house abeg I want them out

TheSuperNerd:
@emboldened... At halftime, I said Iwobi will keep doing what he is doing. He will find that gap and he did brilliantly for Nigeria's 2nd goal.

The Algerians were too careful in the 1st half and sometimes lucky when some of Iwobi's final third line breakers didnt punish them.

Iwobi, take your huge flowers for consistently probing and exploiting the gaps in between the Algerian midfield-defensive lines and the half spaces especially on the medial left side. A true Eagle Eye.

And let me that defensively, Iwobi put it his best defensive shift of the Afcon so far today. Kudos Iwobinho!

Transfer fee for Iwobi for don double now o 😂

AndSunGorilla:
Ndidi was booked for time wasting abi? Though he was injured and didn't even return to finish the game, the referee erred on that one I believe.
Meanwhile some Algerian fans dey claim dem bribe referee against them. Was that a handball against Ajayi in the 1st half?

Looks like but we too can make a claim on that goal line clearance so it’s balanced make Algeria go sleep jor dem for collect like four sef but for Akor Adams wasteful chances

lbrichman2:
Thank God he will start from the bench next match
I happy as Onyeka and Bassey no collect cards
We need our main men against Morocco..

I think Ndidi will miss the semis

Yea Ndidi is off. There’s no how these things won’t happen that why your squad must have depth we are even lucky it’s not worse than this

Kog45:
He was everywhere especially in the second half but Osayi and Bruno really surprised me today,best performance so far from the players.

They played as if they’ve been playing Afcon for donkey years 😂

But wait o na zaidu just vanish like that? Chimooooo

ChrisKels:
Even with the goal, today wasn't Akor's day.

This was a tough game. It takes experience to glide through and our experienced players came to the party- Osihmen, Iwobi, Ndidi and even Simon. They all showed leadership

Man of match- osihmen

If I hear any talk against the player again you go collect

DrYa:
I dey watch and re watch that oshimen header...
O badt gan..

That was world class. Those who says he’s not world class their head no correct

jihday:
I hope the NFF legal team is drafting a new contract for Chelle

If they don’t get it signed before the semis then na sabotage. Chelle can’t prove more than this to know he’s the right guy

TheGoodJoe:
Even though we won, I still feel a pinch of sadness because we had the arsenal to demolish the Algerians. It is clear that Chelle sees this as the business end of the tournament and does not want to make unnecessary risks.

Well managed game by the Boss.

Let’s the reserve the goals for the semis am more than satisfied with today’s play

FriendsAndFans:
Osayi 🔥🔥🔥

Any slander against osayi will not be tolerated henceforth

Kilishihunter:
The Algerians started it. Utterly sore losers

They just want our players to get red card

Lawag3:
I can clearly remember you wailing the other time that Chelle should be sacked

Yes o after that Tunisia game I was mad with him but now I want him more than ever.

CornOak:
Fight don break out o.

I no just understand our drama is becoming too much

Na wa o which kind tensed match be this even after the match has been won

Algeria wan fight o 😂

Masterclass performance from the eagles

Chelle contract should be renewed now

TheSuperNerd:
5-0 even.

Save the goals for the next game

Nigeria don Dey sabi this game of theatrics 😂

Eagles playing the North Africans in their own game of time wasting

6 more minutes as how na ref ogini?

O my God the bar

COOL10:
The Algerians have started rolling on the ground

When they are two goals down 😂

Joebie:
why Simon?. One change would have been enough

This Simon fixation is something else. This is not his Afcon

Kilishihunter:
Onyeka should have stayed on a little

Not comfortable with this sub. Hope Chelle is right I don’t know what Simon is coming to do in this game I hope we finish good

Osayi may end up as the mvp of this match 😂

MKPUOGALIGA:
Bright Osayi na baller! See defending

They are targeting him now

Osayi may need to be subbed abeg we can’t afford any slips
