We won by a stroke of luck mehn,
Am still yet to understand the role of our midfielders since this tournament started,
No man marking no coordination, you just see the midfield porous and all of them running helter-skelter. only our defense has been up to their game.

My thought exactly. Play like this at the World Cup, and we might not even have a point.

helinues:
Blame the coach for what..

I always like his substitutions

I believe the girls can do better than this. The kick and follow spirit he is inculcating into their game will be counterproductive at the world stage. Super Falcons used to be very unpredictable; building play from the back, making use of the wings and the midfield interchangeably. But now, once they meet their match, nah kick and follow.

WibusJaga:
Congrats Girls.

Happy ladies

Even though we won, this is the worst Nigeria female football team ever!

Blame it on the coach...he doesn't know his starting 11 yet. Not too technically and tactically sound jare

Zonefree:
A President that needs all these heavy security details to greet his kinsmen is a failure!

Shinzo Abe wey nor be failure, wetin end am? Even Peter Obi, wey dey form simple man go pad up IF he becomes president. The thing is just that, no matter how good a President (politician) is, he/she will have those who resent him and maybe want him dead too. Not talk of a unique colossal failure like the mannequin from Daura

Lolz..... if he is ready to be Governor he need to be on nairaland or His paid Agent must be on all forum...... If not he is not yet ready

Some of these people still doesn't believe being active on the SM plays major impact in electoral victories in Nigeria. Well, I mean, they have the right to think so, majority of real election day voters aren't on the Internet, atleast not yet. With this year's PVC drive, it might change slightly in the near future.

Voiceofthestree:
Akinlade I am still available if you need those old days support. Yewa people can neve be left behind coz nah PDP town let talk this time Uncle Akin

And you think he's on Nairaland to read your comment? Hilarious

You better visit his authentic SM pages to drop him the message and hope that his SM handlers would relay your message to him

Eleyi of Ogun State Dapo Abiodun is in hot soup.

Useless idiot. No single project for the masses or the public. Roads are death traps for his fellow Cultists to suck blood. Only elite projects for his looting friends and family.

Now, he is a goner. Amosun just need to tell Tinubu, uncle, I will give you the Presidency, you too give my boys the Governorship.

It doesn't work that way, it would be counter productive for Tinubu's ambition

It will be a tough election, but the Tinubu effect would give the underperformed Dapo Abiodun a slim victory.

Hmm, Nigeria is finally gone. What a hopeless country. Too arrogant to ask for help and too timid to face it's many demons heads on.

My major qualm with all these problems is that, Southern leaders are playing along because of what they will eat. It is high time we broke away from these people before they infect us fully with this cancer

Amaju Pinnick keeps killing Nigerian football with his greed. The Super Falcons played one of their best football and AWCON under Ngozi Eucharia Uche, an ex Super Falcons player. Her team was pummelling all opponents on the continent for fun; they were a beauty to watch. And even held their own on the world stage. But because Amaju needed a foreign coach he can collude with steal more funds, he went for an American college coach, one with no impressive CV. I watched a video of the pre-match training the other day, the instructions he was dishing out reeked of gross incompetence. As far as I am concerned, Nigeria won't find it rosy against Botswana tonight.

Brings back memories

Na so budget padding dey start

Hmm

holubee21:
But why is Nigeria railway track always in gravels compare to this

Those are tram tracks...tram and train tracks are built differently.

I miss Lagos early morning Hustle...

See as everywhere dry for here
5.00am

When there are multiple accurate navigators to help you move around without hassle

9jaRealist:
She was fully…
The injury happened early in the game.

If anything, it was because she was playing “full heartedly”…
She went in full tilt for that tackle, and you could see her knee buckle upon impact.

It was similar to Ndidi’s tackle at Leicester, and I immediately suspected a similar injury…
Unfortunately, our coach’s tactic seemed to be to pump it to Oshoala to chase, and thus they kept her on.
>

Exactly.. immediately I watched the replay of the tackle, I knew she was in trouble...i was surprised she continued.

No player who places club over country would continue after that tackle.

As for her forms for Barcelona and Nigeria, while Barcelona is made of world stars, same can be said about the SF. And while Barcelona plays to her strength from all angles by making almost precise passes and crosses, nah anywhere belle face Nigeria dey play.

Truetalk3139:
They all played rubbish, I watched that game live and they were just falling down and looked unfit. Even the SA players were just loosing balls and vice versa, they were just lucky to win and I hope there is a new goalkeeper because that one that keep against SA na comedian.

Of course there is...she was suspended for the opening match

Bonarotti22:
Which kind color combo be this again? How can this man with this interesting dress sense think in a 21st century manner?

My thought exactly.

Ebi and Chikwelu should call it quit with the Super Falcons after the World Cup. At the ages of 39 and 38 respectively (ages which I am sure are football ages o), it is no surprise that the young SA team ran them rag.

I have always said it, until Nigeria goes back to ex Super Falcons players, this team will continue to struggle to impress. This oyinbo man no get any clue about African football, he just come collect his own share of our oil money.

tesppidd:
Oga, goan beg Wike oohh. Just promise him minister of Petroleum and a lifetime immunity if you win.

Otherwise body go tell you say there is division.

Once beaten twice shy...you think Wike will trust him to deliver on that after he was played by the North twice in 2 months ? He would be a fool to buy that. They obviously detest him in the North.

GeneralPula:
I wonder why all these boys no dey learn from politicians..

Once you know you’re into illegal to make money, you don’t show off. Social media is a tool to harvest your informations..

Although i agree with you, but he still would have been caught at the long run. He shares the same Alma Mata with Obi Invictus, he was a junior colleague to the latter. And remember, the Obi has been singing like a bird in exchange for a soft landing since he was caught. And again, the FBI does thorough investigation of any suspect whose name pops up, they don't just pounce, they collect and collate enough evidence to make sure that their catch doesn't slip through their grip via the court. More guys are on the watch within the ring, it is just a matter of time

Zulu2022:
na confirm arewa,look him Fulani face,y show off,even if one do,y not stay naija,where ur kinsmen go cover u,if e sup

Na confirm Arewa boy him be...he went to the same Uni in SA with Obi Invictus. A couple of more guys are in that ring.

Back in Nigeria, I hardly make stew for Yam and rice without putting enough locust beans, especially my Ofada rice. My efo riro...oh my God!
My love for it is epic! But unfortunately over here, na so so dried ones dey, and the stress of cleaning it and bringing it back to life is too stressful for me jare. I miss it though....very much!

crownprince23:
I agree with voter apathy but Pete Obi Tsunami is just a fiction from his followers, mostly igbos. Go to the market square to meet the real people, ask them which candidates are going for presidency, they will tell you only APC Tinubu and PDP Atiku. As about labour party or Peter Obi, the name is strange to them. I bet you that Peter Obi will not get 1 million vote and the votes will only come from the igbos that know him. If you don't believe me, the the sample yourself, just pick people randomly in the street and simply ask, "which party and candidates are contesting for Nigeria president in the next election

Well, I am not in the country, hence, I wouldn't know the true street credibility of Peter Obi. Although I know SM frenzy over a candidate doesn't translate into votes on election day, but if PO's supporters are able to sustain their PVC sensitisation campaign, although I won't still be enough to give a victory at the polls, but it will definitely affect Tinubu, just like Kwankwaso would be a headache for Atiku.

donphilopus:
Tinubu should get nothing less than 4 million votes in the entire southwest next year.

Unfortunately voter apathy in the region is a very big problem Tinubu would have to solve before then. Something Atiku and Kwankwaso have no problem with. Again, the Peter Obi tsunami in Southern Nigeria is also a stumbling block.

He has a lot of hurdles to cross, can't wait to see how he manoeuvres them all

Cowards!!!

Why attack the bus carrying the Press Crew and not the one carrying VIPs? They went for a softer target, knowing fully well the last 2 or 3 vehicles on a convoy are rarely guarded.

I am sure many arrests would be made this morning

AnambraPrince:
Is this not the same (beautiful) girl that won gold at the Olympics?

No she's not, she has never made it to the podium at the Olympics, she finished 4th at the last edition. I hope she does at the next edition

A hearty congratulations to her! She's really breaking barriers and unrelenting too, she deserves a place on the podium at the WACs, Commonwealth and Olympic games respectively.

Okagbare comes to mind, I hope Tobi is squeaky clean and remains so, because all eyes are on her now, she should watch her circle and avoid banana peels.

Permutations everywhere

Make I rest my case face my life until

1. Tinubu finally chooses his running mate, a dilemma people have allows pointed out even before he won the primaries- where would he find a suitable and acceptable running mate?

2. Obi and Kwankwaso wakes up to the fact that they don't even have a chance without merging... the problem with this is that, on the one hand, Kwankwaso won't want to lose the name of his party and identity, neither would he want to play 2nd fiddle, while on the other hand, Obi won't want to disappoint his growing followers and play a 2nd fiddle to Kwankwaso. I mean, who drops the chance of being VP to an Atiku, to become running mate to Kwankwaso?

Big dilemma, but the fact still remains that, the two lack structures to make a national impact, politics is local, and for the likes of Obi to make an impact solo, he will need the enlightened youths online to match their support with action by going head to head against the their counterparts on the street (louts, artisans, market women, etc...who actually are historically the real election day voters)

3. But the game changer is if Kwankwaso steps down for Atiku...then it is game over for other candidates.
But the problem with this is that, the Presidential elections come before others, if Kwankwaso chooses to step down and support Atiku, it would have ripple effects on his political followers during the National Assembly elections which happens simultaneously with the Presidential elections, and the effect would again spread to the Governorship elections later on. A vivid example is the AD/OBJ alliance in 2003.

Like I always say, I don't believe Nigerians have suffered enough, when they do, they will do the right thing...it is just unfortunate that few selfish and corrupt delegates are usually saddled with the responsibility to choose for millions those to choose from, now we are left with no choice that we have to put up with these 4 candidates. By a mile, these aren't our best brains, all corrupt with skeleton in their cupboards (albeit there is levels to their corruption).

Well, 24 hours is a long time in politics, how much more about 8 months. Time will tell.

The potential replacement on Tinubu's ticket...but e go still backfire sha

majole:
TELL THEM LOUD & CLEAR. IT'S ALL MAN FOR THEMSELVES. HIS SISTER SON THAT IS A REPS MEMBER LOST APC PRIMARIES FOR RE-ELECTION. IF HE COULD NOT INTERVIEW ON BEHALF OF HIS NEPHEW, WHO IS HE GOING TO INTERFERE FOR? HE MIGHT ATTEND ONE OR 2 APC RALLIES BUT THAT'S IT

I will be shocked if he does otherwise
