We dey talk same thing

Chelle no be the wahala, our players too soft

Too soft for competitive football

Someone said influx of innit boys brought softness to our game and may have killed of part of the never say die attitude of Nigeria and I'm beginning to believe it

There are lots of foreign born in the Senegalese too na! But I agree we are too soft and always trying to be politically correct but that’s more on our administrators than players!

9JAMac10:
How does a referee make such a silly decision in such a crucial game such as an AFCON final, a continental competition. Africans will now have the nerve to get angry at Jamie Carragher for saying the competition isn't significant. Can't even make simple decisions

Blame it on CAF and Morocco 😂

Blueelf:
Una dey see am now

I told someone that we lack the players to make magic happen against teams like Morocco

Chelle good but we just don't have Senegal midfield.

Thanks God you guys are seeing your mates beat Morocco in extra time. Something vhelle and your overrated players (bar bassey and osimhen) couldn't do

You’re talking jazz this game has nothing to do with tactics but madness curing madness

lexyman:
SOMETIMES MADNESS CAN CURE MADNESS .... KUDOS TO THE SENEGALESE TEAM!

As in werey la fin wo werey!

If the Senegalese had not protested and the penalty had been played immediately Morocco will be lifting the cup by now.

I know the Senegalese may be punished but they are true warriors and heroes. I just love them dem no look anybody face 😂 kudos to the coach na man e be!

caprikon:
Rubbish officiating in AFCON. It baffles me how NPFL refs aren't in this tournament.

We Nigerians are the ones castigating ourselves before the world the countries we think are saints are more corrupt

How do you explain a whole Ghana rolling out the carpet to welcome a corrupt referee!

mostob:
Even if they don't win, the message has been passed. CAF is run by cheaters. I'm so happy this happened in front of dignitaries outside Africa.

Yes 🙌 na God go punish Motsepe

1-0 😂

Senegalese fans throwing bottles to the pitch werey la fin wo werey 😂

🚨 Angry Senegalese fans throw bottles, chairs and get onto the pitch in protest at officials not checking the earlier Senegal incident when their goal was disallowed. It did not go to VAR for review. #AFCON2025 pic.twitter.com/0Zc95iPTqH

We Nigerians should learn from the Senegalese

They are my heroes

Everywhere blur! 😂

CAF and Morocco went too far what a disaster and a disgrace

They say Morocco coach conquer us tactically 😂

Awon werey

What a useless Afcon

CapitalCee:
Everyone was laughing at Nigeria

They say we no Dey tactical 😂

Shebi they say Nigeria no sabi 😂

It’s finished! 😂

TheSuperNerd:
It will stand if it was Maroc. It's that obvious. Seck didnt foul Hakimi. Hakimi went down easily.

If Senegal loses that will be a serious talking point

Morocco can’t win clean aaah

Daylight robbery mhen 😂

mostob:
Hakimi went down too easily there. Host advantage.

Exactly 😂 aaah

Controversy 😂

Will that goal be cancelled if it was Morocco?

Blood Dey flow for this game o

Bossoflife25:
Imagine Osimhen, Lookman, and Akor against this all over the place Senegalese defense! Omo!

Would have scored those chances Morocco are missing here

TheSuperNerd:
Still no shot on target. That was their first big chance of the game missed too.

They are coming more into the game more now Senegal had better watch it

Morocco sef Dey throw away chance 😂

TheSuperNerd:
The biggest observation for me is how the ref has managed to keep things on fine equilibrium and not obstructed Senegal's plays with silly 50-50 calls only in favor of the host. It is a final. Keep it fair. Keep it balanced. Let whoever will be Champs earn it for real.

Morocco is yet to have a shot on target. If it was Dan Laryea, they would have 2 by now.

Yeah apart from that foul against mane and another 50-50 chance call against Senegal the ref was descent in the first half. Hope things remain so in the second half and we don’t begin to see spirits 😂

Senegal need to take their chances na

Odunayaw:
Maybe the 120min against us is playing a part because Morocco has been tame

Brahimi has been missing

Yeah the Senegalese are fresher

Odunayaw:
Wish we had Ndidi to add the grit and steel

Yeah experience is more needed at this level

Both teams missing glorious chances so far

Senegal should be scoring that I hope they won’t regret this later

Tough battle in midfield 😂 e no easy

caprikon:
Senegalese showing no respect to the Moroccans. If the officiating remains fair, I can see Senegal winning this one.

They got to be careful with their tackling though make red card no go show o
