Olayinka is not a striker he is a winger! I don't know why peeps are clamoring for him to lead the line. Sadiq has great positioning and good ball control. He will get better with time.

TheGoodJoe:

It is not true. Big misconception. That was a tactical discussion between the coach and the player. It even highlights how sound the man has gotten the players to the point they can read games and put heads with the coach.

Their build up plays, their reading of space, and efficient long balls were fine. Their problem was individual quality, which we were ahead.

As for coaching, they were well coached.

I thought we already knew what Onyeka can do so no need for this,Onyeka was on the bench for ever resilient Ndidi,Onyeka has nothing to prove....but Olisa proved Kokmne right that few minutes is enough....the boy Olisa na real class o.

Did you also give this match rustiness excuse for Sadiq yesterday or Nwakali in his few minutes against Egypt?

Some people amaze me with their takes

Confidence player in 7-game tournament?

We don play 3 games finish and confidence never even pass foundation level, who will wait to build confidence for the duration of the tournament?

Abeg, we have seen enough.

ChrisKels:
Am I the only one who didn't see what Onyeka did after coming on for Nwakali?

lloydtruth:
So Simon Moses was this threatening yet Rohr kept limiting him to defensive roles and was on the verge of recalling Victor Moses. Who needs Victor Moses now when Simon can deliver. Anyways Premiership calling soon, Simon should be ready for the Premiership soon.

lbrichman2:
Truth be told, I still want to see Sadiq given more minutes albeit in a different set up
He may have missed chances today, but I feel it's due more to his nerves than ability
That goal would do wonders for his confidence
I believe we will see a different Sadiq next time

drDoom3:
For the moment, I think Olayinka is a better backup CF to Awoniyi. Strong enough, excellent work rate, nothing flashy but links up play well. Another Awoniyi but just smaller and slimmer.

Sadiq may be useful in certain games. His height combined with Ajayi made us especially dangerous from set-pieces in the first half. However the guy needs to work on himself a lot. He needs to be more fluid, add some upper body mass and learn to link up play better. He gives off this Onuachu 5 years ago vibe (Onuachu's days at Mitdjylland when he scored that goal against Manchester United).

forgiveness:
He is not a striker.

IDENNAA:
Things would be different if we had scored.

IDENNAA:
This Guinea Bissau are the strongest team we are playing in this competition so far...they are tough, very tough

femicyrus:
Sadiq will kill this match for Nigeria.
What a wasteful fool

philip0906:
This mallam needs to be hauled out of that field. He’s not in tune, not in touch and same tempo with the rest of the team. Must we apply quota system to every damn thing?

Sugarboyy:
Abeg make them remove Sadiq oh before brother faint. Infact he should immediately be sent back to his club. we nor want again

Joebie:
Sadiq suppose take that chance one time

safarigirl:
God should help Umar Sadiq sha

klexycole:
Nice ball in from Jibola.

TheGoodJoe:

I disagree. Oliseh is tactically sound. Very very sound.

IDENNAA:
Ruined my reputation , how ? Because I don't want init boys....if that's my offence then let it remain so.

IDENNAA:
Cc.andrewbaba44 , you get job at all abi na yahoo you dey do....always online...

IDENNAA:
By the way , Cc.Kog45 you are a suspect. I can sense it in your Aribo defence. I have noticed a trend in your Aribo crusade. Be careful so you don't ruin your reputation here.
