Nice play so far

We should be wary of counters from the Tunisians

minfelix:
mumu Wikipedia even confirm say na 3 Nigerians sef🤣🤣

😂 which kind thing be this

Go for the win boys but if you can’t please don’t lose! All the best

minfelix:
4 Nigerians have scored in this Afcon so far🤣
Ajayi 🇳🇬 v Tanzania
Lookman 🇳🇬 v Tanzania
Anieboh 🇬🇶 vs Burkina faso
Uchenna 🇺🇬 vs Tanzania

Anieboh should be Equatorial Guinea

See as we Dey dash other countries talent na wa o

CornOak:
Egbon, why you dey fear Morocco and Senegal?

Actually it’s more of the way the group will turn out just in case the result tonight doesn’t favour us. A win for either Uganda or Tanzania could affect us one kind going into the last group fixture but the draw keeps both of them at a point each instead of one of them grabbing the whole 3 points

semid4lyfe:
Reinforcement in midfield with Onyeka. Not bad.

Still a four-man defence but Bruno in for Zaidu. I guess this is justified with the stinker Zaidu dropped in the Tanzania game. I would have preferred a five-man defence though.

Also, I'll have preferred Chukwueze to have started ahead of Akor Adams.

Anyways, what will be will be and what will not be will not be.

Fingers crossed......

We can only hope for the best. The way we keep chopping and changing our starting 11 worries me.

Here is what I found too

Better this game ends in a draw for us jor

1-1 full time Senegal won’t be happy. They almost lost the game

charlesemeka85:
Talent wey their hand no dey reach

😂 Na Belgium Dey kidnap those players without ransom

minfelix:
same as Capeverde, i see them rising fast amongst the ranks…their foreign based players will also make a competitive team in the nearest future

When you think of ex Man U players like Nani and Patrice evra who are of Cape Verde descent it tells you the depth of talent that exists from that country.

CornOak:
From my keen observation so far, it's quite clear that Daniel Amokachi is a better commentator/analyst than Sunday Oliseh.

Do you agree?

Of course and experience matters too, Amokachie was a commentator in the last Afcon while oliseh na newbie wey de form experience wey e no get. 😂

Amedino99:
based on current squad composition, im not sure this rule has hindered them at all.

Na the ojoro wey dem don start to Dey do now if you observe over the last few years they were gradually introducing the talents from the diaspora like bolassie and co meanwhile a decade ago their national team were mostly home based. Now they are becoming like Senegal and Mali that can easily bring talent from the diaspora to raise their game.

TheSuperNerd:
They are an Old Powerhouse. As Zaire, they were quite scary.

Some of the top stars of Belgian Football, past and present like Romeku Lukaku, Loic Openda, Emile Mpenza, Youri Tielemans are Congolese.

So DRC will always be a threat on the continent as long as they keep the bulk of the talents they have across Europe.

The Mpenza brothers Emile and Mbo were massive in the 90s omo Congo just dash Belgium so many players for free! 😂

SymphonyRad:
VAR has to review it

It’s a goal indeed

1-1 again your star players are key

Sometimes it’s better and a blessing if your first game is scrappy I hope Senegal didn’t underestimate these Congolese

I hope Senegal savages this situation

DRC 1-0

Won’t be surprised if they win this game

Clint02:
So Congo has won the Afcon 2 times.

Even been to the World Cup once in the 70s

minfelix:
much solid than super eagles abi?🙆🏾‍♂️🙆🏾‍♂️

DRC has always been a solid football nation if they expunge that non dual citizenship nonsense from their constitution they will start winning Afcon again and many other sports competitions in Africa. Talent wise they have depth both home and abroad

Bossoflife25:
This game is much balance than you thought. DRC is a solid team!

Very balanced! Many probably have forgotten DRC was in the semis last Afcon

Awilo in the stadium watching DRC 😂

Mujtahida:
By the time we get a solid midfield, we will start lacking in other departments.

😂 that’s the funny thing, midfield fit better tomorrow we go come lack striker! God abeg

chuks404:
his wife is from there
So I can understand his bias.

But to be bias towards Nigeria na to Dey form objective, na sin be that one. Oliseh no well at all

Odunayaw:
Na these gains Patrice Ọmọepe wan erode with quadriennial tournament

CAF president still never understand the memo!

Afcon needs to run biennially for the next 10 years at least to maintain or improve this momentum then we adjust it to every 3 years

TheSuperNerd:
Mali's midfield depth is so crazy that they started 5 of them, brought in Kamory Doumbia (AM/CM) and still had Leipzig's Amadou Haidara and former Monaco lad, Mohamed Camara on the bench.

Such depth.

Teams like Mali, Senegal, Ivory Coast even Burkina Faso and Guinea all seems to produce good and quality midfielders, very enviable

What the hell is our west African francophone brothers doing? They are getting something right there honestly

Mali wan help Morocco score 😂

CapitalCee:
The officiating has been tailored in favour of Morroco

😂 with 10 extra minutes

The previous Afcon has had a serious impact on the standard and intensity of this year’s Afcon. Whoever wins will be a worthy champion, just hope officiating won’t mar the competition as it progresses

CapitalCee:
Sunday Oliseh: The goal that the morrocans has conceded has thrown doubt in their self belief, and the Senegalese 🇸🇳 could capitalise 🤣🤣.

For match wey na Morroco and Mali de play

😂 abeg make Una just free this guy before some people go think say we get agenda for am

The performance from the last match still Dey affect our guy,

1-1
