Gwan2:
Researched some of Africa’s weaknesses which I stated, atleast that’s the first step to recovery. Now what have you done as your contribution?

I don't need to do any research

I live in Africa and I know the problems!

But what have you done to improve the situation of Africa in your personal capacity?

Charley2020:
Because Ghana is a much better team. They play better, keep possession more, launch deadly attacks, defend sensibly, and have that fighting spirit that Senegal lacks. Since the first goal went in, Senegal transformed into secondary school footballers.

Really?

If Senegal hadn't conceded those goals towards the end of the match, they will probably be very competitive in this second half.

Senegal suffered from the same thing Ghana suffered from.

Charley2020:
France will beat England easily. Mbappe has no equal in the England team, and France have a lot of other great players too. Even if England could beat Ghana, it wouldn't have been this easy.

Why do think England will struggle to beat Ghana?

Ghana also have the same lack of discipline once they loose the ball high up the field.

Ghana conceded those quick fire goals against Portugal, Korea and Uruguay.

Gwan2:
Africa, modern invention…mba

Modern sport….mba

Tribalism and pseudo- religiousity …gbam

Kpanshing and producing kids……gbam

Ritual killing …….gbam

Are you not an African yourself?

What have done to improve Africa?

The Senegalese are terrible out of ball possession, they will just jumping into silly tackles.

daddynasa:
They don’t have that African mentality joor. Originally African but not with our sluggish football mentality. England just use premier league counter attack take kill senegal

What is African mentality.

You mean tactical discipline and awareness?

Those are the things players learn in football academies at a young age.

Tell African leaders to invest in football at the academy stage and see that there's nothing like African mentality.

This senegal team is good but they seem to lack organizations and loose concentration at crucial times in the game.

This is exactly what they did against Netherlands in the group stages.

But this the knock out football now.

Better luck in the second half or next time.

Supersport has two English pundits and one African pundit in a Match involving the last sub-sharan team at the world cup.



Nonsense!

Reussite:
A Brazilian team B consisting of Rodrygo, G. Jesus, Martinelli, Antony, Fred, Emerson should equally perform like the team A players. They are big stars in their respective clubs. It’s honestly no excuse.

Bruv, This isn't club football and Cameroon really gave it their all.

And It's not like Brazil didn't create multiple chance to score or didn't press Cameroon enough to win the game.

joyandfaith:
My thought. There is no point in having your key players playing game of no important with risk of being injured. There would be real action in knockout stage.

Exactly!

9 points is prestige, it doesn't mean you will win the world cup, especially if you are almost guaranteed to top the group.

Qasim6:
You need to check again

Wales, Denmark and Canada too are without a win

Thanks. Bruv I made the corrections

But my point is that this is a very competitive world cup.

I think only Qatar finished without a point.

Reussite:
Now I’m finally done…..these last round games of the group stage has match fixing written all over them. I can’t be fooled.
What are the odds of Brazil & France losing to Cameroon & Tunisia respectively?

The first two games already showed that there's not much gap between the qualities of majority of the teams at the world cup.

And most teams selected team B for this final game.

So what were you expecting?

France, Portugal, Spain and Brazil used team B to play majority of their third games.

What a world cup!

Most teams apart from the host Qatar, Canada, Denmark and Wales managed to win a game.

I am talking about Saudi, Iran, Cameroon, Ecuador, Ghana etc.


Not a single team managed 9 points after three games.

What a world cup!

The African team with the least point which is Ghana had three points.

yinkeys:
They’re going home

don't be sure

IamGreen1:
If you were to be in their shoes nko.

Lol

Ghana played with their heart in last few minutes to ensure Uruguay also followed them home.

What a world cup

Could Cameroon do it tonight?

Could they ?

Bad belle football from Ghana

We are going home together football

I have a Stat for those Pro Europe pundits on Nairaland.

I mean all those who question African football on the side as a sort of illusion that they are somehow fair-minded football intellects.

Of all the two dozens European teams at this World cup only the Portuguese team has not yet dropped a point.

And about 70% are likely heading home from what we are seeing sofar.

The Polish team came for a draw and started playing from the beginning of the match for a draw.

This is the most silly type of negative football.

This Polish team is horrible.

creolehunt:
A red card can be given even for an off-the-ball incident. You do not have to possess the ball for a foul to be called.

so a free kick and penalty can be given for off the ball incident too?

Please show me that part in the FiFA rule?

Flier:
Was unfair but it’s a penalty according the rules of the game
Firstly he went for the ball but hit Messi’s face (his hand did not touch the ball) while Messi’s head touch the ball and that makes it a Penalty
1) if Messi’s head did not touch the ball then the penalty won’t be given even if he hit Messi’s face
2) if his hand touches the ball then the penalty won’t have been given even if he hit Messi’s face since he is not outside his box

Stop this shit

When is touching an opponent foul play in Football? Is Football not a contact sport again?

There's difference between touching an opponent and impeding an opponent..

I have never seen a penalty like that in my life.

That was almost day light robbery.

This commentry team should be sacked.

Princedapace:
Aswear, Morocco use Belgium eye see far
Classic finishing

Don't mind people Insulting our continent just after the first game.

All the African teams at this World cup already have at least a point.

Africa slot should be reduced

Africa slot should be reduced

Shebi Africa has won against opponents from Europe, South America and Asia now.

Africa my continent.

I am proud of my continent.

None of Portuguese players want to play central midfield.

They need presence in that middle.

Cavani na minus 2 players.

This is not cavani of 2010 again.

Meanwhile, Uruguay can't spring two pases together for the whole match.


South American football has really dropped.

Cavani be like minus 1 for that Uruguay team.

Starzo:
Go and ask Boko Haram and bandit members

The answer is Amed Musa against Iceland.

And Rasidi Yekini in 94

They are both Muslims.


Next time do a little research before spewing hatred.

By the way, I am a Christian.

Starzo:
See as Muslim Mohammed kudus dey score goal for Ghana....

Nigeria Muslims na to kill people Dem sabi

Which religion is the last Nigerian to score in open play in the world cup?

Which religion is Nigerian to score the first ever goal at world cup in 94?

I was getting ready to type a long epstiple to praise African teams at world cup.

Na so I see 2:2

Before I know again, I don see 3:2 for Ghana.
