Cristalz:
Oh-kay! 3 points lost by the Arses

Guess United drawing their first game wasn't so bad now,was it? Y'all won last week and we didn't hear word.Now you've lost,not even a draw.

Anyway,AW should know better than leaving Eboue in Fab's place.And Ade can sometimes be a blind,unthinking bat.RVP blew a few good chances.  .  .  better luck next time Gunners.Season's still young.

It's official. . . . . .Arsenal struggle without FLAMINI, CESC and HLEB.
Those are the combo that make em thick.
I saw a very weak Arsenal midfield with no tact, no crisp passes and no penetrative moves.
It's ridiculous. . . . . . 3 points is nuthing though, it's a long hard season.
What is to say Chelsea won't LOSE 2mrw?

Arsenal should just condemn Gallas to the bench.
What was he thinking??
Corner kick and he was hiding behind the player on the outside. . . . .
He shoulda done better defending. . . . . . .He just hid behind a striker like a Arrow.

Cristalz:
I disagree with you a bit o.They didn't totally relax,they kept trying.Agreed they messed up the best chances of the match,but they never stopped trying.The Argy's had a better defence,and a much better GK.And like you said,vast experience.

Did we go for broke? No. . . .we didn't
As at 1st half. . . .game was EVEN. . .
When Argentina scored, u expect Nigeria to be more aggressive and pin Argentina back for long spells but we didn't do that.
Argentina were the ones playing like they needed to equalise.

Siasia tried.There was good team-work,good co-ordination,a reasonable level of confident shots at goal.Just the MF, defence,and of course,Vanzekin that had issues.All of these should be ironed out by the time they go for the Nations' Cup.

Siasia tried but i had a niggling feeling he didn't tutor those boys on PLAN B.
There's no indication he prepared those boys for a mishap(conceding the first goal). . . .
This is why winning games easily be4 the final can be dangerous. . . .The team at Atlanta came back from 3-1 to win 4-3 against BRAZIL.

Even when they conceded twice in the final against Argentina. . . . .THE BELIEF was there that they would always do a COMEBACK.
This bunch are not used to conceding the 1st goal and adapting to chasing a game. . . . .PATIENCE is the key word.
This is why Man Utd, Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool are great teams. . . .When they concede, u expect FIRE but i didn't see that tonight.

HNIC:
The experience the argies had saw them through.
Riquelme,Messi,Masch,Gago,Aguero etc.
Better luck next time.
Sad though, that we lost.
We failed to take our chances

Good point, HNIC.

The craziest thing was when they scored. . . . .Those boys just gave up.
They got scared and lost hope as if they felt they were not going to equalise.
They had so much time to come back. . . . . .all they needed to do was keep calm and hit the Argies on a counter. . . .
Siasia didn't tutor those boys well.

ARGENTINA deserve it . . . . .
They are the best team in the Olympic since 1996.
That was the last time they lost a match in the Olympic games. . . .

They won all the 6 games in 2004 Olympcs.
They won all their 6 games in 2008 Olympics.
Letz face it. . . . .Messi outclassed Naija players.

Cristalz:
Vanzekin messed up hugely,but let's not attribute too much blame to him.The Eaglets did try.Who really expected them to get this far anyway?

One silver,two bronze medals. At least we sha have something to show for our Olympic trip to China

Thank God. . . . . . . .Messi has gone off.
Lets score now and push this game into extra time. . . .  .
At least Messi won't take part.

Cristalz:
Don't be o.I didn't expect us to win anyway.This is Argentina afterall. Soccer kings,with the cunning and trickery of a fox to complete the package.Guess they do deserve the gold.

Argentina deserve it. . . . . .
They have played better, moved the ball better and they took their chances.
Naija boys are just prancing like the donkeys that left Egypt for Canaan.

ANICHEBE . . . . . . . .

Ohhhhhhhhhhh Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Godddddddddddddddd
We wont win this game if we keep missing good chances.
This is hilarious.

NSOFOR is a bitch. . . . .
A good chance to strike at goal and he gives a back-pass.
Are we sure Maradona hasn't bribed our strikers?
This is abnormal.

@ Razorr,

Is Messi god now or what??
As soon as he got that ball. . . . . .I knew danger was imminent.

Cristalz:
I mean their keeper is very damn good!

Babes. . . . . . . How will this go with Messi interested


MESSI SPRINGS. . . . .AND GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

Messi is frustrated. . . . . Messi is pissed and he makes the best pass in the game.

dayokanu:
Messi has just won worldplayer of the year with that move

I think so. . . . .Dayokanu.
The way he turned and shot on a spring. . . .PRICELESS.

WHAT A SHOT FROM MESSI.
Gosh . . . . . .Messi is SUPERHUMAN.

@ Razorr,

Ronaldo will face u guys in Sep.

2nd half has started . . . . .
Our defence was split into two with a Messi pass.
Good goalkeeping by Vanzekin.

Awoof dey run belle o. Seun provide free internet discussion for you and you dey ask for stout now. Wetin you go ask for next, hin girlfriend?[/quote]You are not serious!!
Where did i mention stout??

@ Cassiel,

It's about time we hurt the Argentines.
Isaac Promise missed a golden chance. . . . .No striker's instinct.
He didn't anticipate the ball coming back to him and he just struck lazily.
Messi won't lie down low. . . . . He needs this gold medal to boost his status this year.

Leo Messi cannot be frustrated. . . . . . .Whoever says that dunno a thing about him at Barcelona.
What he needs is a moment of brilliance and BANG!!!!
Underestimate him at ur own peril. . . . . until the final whistle blows. . . .never put Messi down as being frustrated.

Seun:
Finally, half time.  Phew!

Seun, u are buying DRINKS for everyone if we WIN.
Bring out ur wallet right away.

@ Razorr,

How do we cope with Messi?
Knowing fully well Chelsea couldn't cope with him the last time he went to SB.

Razorr:
@Hannibal

The only good news is that the Nigerians are not playing half as badly as i feared they would.

They're actually growing in confidence as the match builds on.

Did u see Di Maria's rocket?
Ma heart lost 5 gallons of red blood cells.
This is hypertension. . . . . .We shoulda scored but Messi's trickery may undo us.

@ Razorr,

Was that a time-out?
This referee should be sacked. . . . . Players taking pure water.
Blimey. . . . .never seen this before.

@ Razorr,

U are a Arrow.
Messi aint what??
To these minnow, Messi is god.

Isaac Promise has thrown the medal away. . . . .  
What a chance!!!!!
How many more channces do we have to miss to score.

What can we do to MESSI?
He is livewire. . . . . . . .Show him to his left(all well and good)
Show him to his right foot and he cuts in like a hot knife on butter.
Where is Bright Omokaro?

Messi was brought DOWN.
If it happens again, Naija would concede a penalty.
Messi should not be entertained in the danger area at all.

Why are we playing like toads?
Gosh. . . . . . . . . . . we keep missing these chances.

FREEKICK. . . . . .

Riquelme's freekick fumbled. . . . .
This is horrible.

Our build-up is slow. . . .
We cant even get out of our half.
What is going on?

Messi has started. . . . .
What a delightful run to set up Aguero(he dived).

Honestly, this is cheating.
How can Messi be playing in this tournament??

We shoulda brought Yekini.

stillwater:
Hehehe, Should I be bothered? I go about my ways with pride

Marilyn Manson would be stoned to death in Naija o.
Bakassi boys would think he is a ritualist.

stillwater:
Koffi as my boyfriend? Naa wouldn't even breed such thoughts, try someone that looks like my profile pic

Adam Levine??
Bloody racist.

stillwater:
Dream on, dreamer!!!!

You are not serious. . . . . .
At least we know u are defending em cos of ur boyfriend(Koffi).

stillwater:
lol, maybe their women like the the way they combine colors.

If they do, they won't be running amok around Nigerian lads.
Ghanaian lasses will KILL to date a Naija dude and this is OFFICIAL.

stillwater:
Don't tear a nerve over nothing.

Not tearing a nerve. . . . .Just putting that dude in his place.

How can he say Kenyans n Ghanaians are preferred to Nigerians.
The same dudes with yellow jeans, green shirts and red shoes??
Puhleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaze. . . . . . . They got no game.

The Sly:
because we are Heroes. . . . . . . .

Heroes of what??
World War II or Vietnam War??
