With the NFF crisis, i do not expect anything to work as usual.

Maybe Pinnick don order the freezing of all NFF accounts.

As it is Mauritania still has hopes. Because FIFA's hammer is coming.

Nigeria u15 won 5-0 today but look at the fake jersey they are wearing

You no hear say even the Flying Eagles went to shop for their jerseys at the Wuse Market?

lawrence35:

Assin a picture taken 30 yrs ago or a person who contested 30yrs ago? I am not understanding.

Not impressed with the standard of play especially in the first half.

Goals For Isaac Success, Josh Maja, Ify Ofoegbu & Okenabirhie In Pre-Season GamesCatch up on the Nigerian players who found the back of the net for their respective European clubs in pre-season games on Saturday 21st July.

At the Montgomery Waters Meadow, Shrewsbury Town new signing, Fejiri Okenabirhie was yet again on the score-sheet for The Blues in a 3-2 loss to Brentford.

The former Arsenal youth teamer made the most of a lofted pass into the area to smash home his chance in the top left corner of the goal, bringing the score to 1-1 after they had initially fell behind.

Elsewhere, 18-year old right-back, Ifeanyi Ofoegbu got among the goals for Chesterfield in their 5-0 rout of Nuneaton at the Liberty Way Stadium.

The defender who was picked out in the box by teammate, Joe Rowley with 15 minutes left finished with aplomb, rattling into the roof of the net to make it 4-0.

In another pre-season encounter, goals from Super Eagles striker, Isaac Success, Troy Deeney and Jerome Sinclair gave Premier League side, Watford a 3-1 victory over German club, Fortuna Düsseldorf in Bürgerau.

The Nigerian tapped home the opener for The Hornets after getting onto the end of an Andre Gray's pass at the far post.

And finally, Joshua Maja netted a brace for Sunderland in a 6-0 rout of Scottish opponents, St Mirren at Paisley.

The teenager opened the scoring after 22 minutes, sending a well-cushioned finish in thanks to a pass from Chris Maguire before leaving Mirren goalkeeper, Craig Samson rooted to the spot when he arrowed in a 22-yard effort for his second.

Poor run of form for Isaac Success is one of the reasons we went to Russia without a striker.


That boy should be tearing nets by now.

Flown flew and flied! English no easy oh.
My guy correct am with love

Oga chose one.

tbaba1234:
Zelalem played for Germany under 17 but USA under 20.

Yeah that true.

safarigirl:
i honestly did not expect our players to move. They have barely established themselves in their clubs, some have had good seasons that deserve a second shot, why destabilize themselves to make big money moves that will eventually cause their careers to deteriorate? I would rather our players sit tight in their clubs than gallivanting Europe in the name of big money moves.

Nne...

oloriooko:
NFF is such a dump of uselessness
Heard the U20 had to go to Wuse market to get their jerseys for the first leg of this match cuz no jerseys in NFF store
Now the NFF Twitter handle cannot update us about the match being played in Agege Lagos!
Why should NFF escape Fifa ban?

Worst still they took the game to a poor quality Agege pitch that got flooded.

The same flooded pitch condition that the Amuneke's "academy" Flying Eagles found themselves in, same stage last qualifiers. But thank God Paul's boys are already used to playing rain ball on our NPFL pitches. Hahaha...

A well rounded 5-0 victory for our Flying Eagles.
The team can only get better.
AYC here we come.

safarigirl:
this isn't really the answer to my question.

Let me rephrase: How many African players made big money moves? Country by country, how many? Why is it a shame that Nigerian players had no big money moves? Must they make these moves? We have all admitted that we don't have Neymars or Hazards here, so, why is it a shame our players did not move?

I like that question. "Must they make these moves"?

Aside Ronaldo which other big name player has moved?

Blue3k:
I haven't flew with either carrier. My mom has has flew with Quatar airways and she thinks they're service is top notch. I guess Qutar since they have impeccable service.

Past participle of fly is what?

(a) Flied (b) Flew (c) Flown (d) Flyer

uboma:
He cannot travel to Ethiopia and back with NGN200k

Abi. Even if he manages to get to Ethiopia, who pays for his accommodation, feeding, transportation and cost of other activities?

merahki:
It is not only planes that can leave Nigeria dear
There is road travel and a return ticket to any of Benin- Togo -Ghana is less than 50 thousand Naira
So you see? We (you) can learn everyday
Cheers

you can learn what every day. Who doesn't know those West African countries are accessible by road.

Oga, someone that is going on vacation is not meant to go through all those tortuous journeys. People that make such trips are typically going for business, schooling and other serious matters. Do you know how many border points they will have stop for checking?

If he doesn't have enough money he rather looks for one nice resort in Nigeria and enjoy his 200K.

goldfish80:
I had goatee and hairy chest at 15 in SS1/SS2. Although that Morrocan boy looks 18 atleast.

I hope you are not one of those accusing Francis Uzoho of age cheating?

A well known lecturer at the Federal Polytechnic, Oko in Anambra state, Mr Chinedu Ezeonwu popular known as Biggie, has been laid to rest after his untimely death some months ago.

According to online reports, the 41-year-old lecturer of the department of Business Administration and Management(BAM), was said to have died "mysteriously" following an undisclosed sickness.

He was buried today at his hometown in Ekwulobia, Anambra state with his family and friends present.

May his soul rest in peace.

The way youths of these days murder English is very terrifying.

tbaba1234:
Algeria. African youth games

OK.

But my question is should this be an U15 or an U14 team. Cos players who are 15 are supposed to already be with the Golden Eaglets team. Next year is the U17 tournament so we expect the current 15 years olds to be 16 then and should be part of the Eaglets then.

I know this crop is different from the Eaglets team because the later are currently in camp preparing for the U17 zonal elimination series. Of which I know some 15years olds would be part of.

Well, let's see how things pan out. NFF and the coaches should just do a good job and give us quality representations at the U17 level.

tbaba1234:
3:2..
Nigeria won

Where was the game played?

tbaba1234:
Morocco Under 15, that we played today.. See that guy with beards. He might just be one of those kids that grow fast

How did the game even finish?

tbaba1234:
Yes, Arabs are very hairy... Besides, i expect them to have better records than Nigeria.

Yes I know Arabs just like jews are very hairy.

But for an U15 player(maybe he is even 14) to grow such beards. And you easily want to accept.

Issorite...*just passing and whistling away*.

tbaba1234:
Morocco Under 15, that we played today.. See that guy with beards. He might just be one of those kids that grow fast

No, he is not over-aged. It is normal for a Moroccan 15years old to grow that kind of beared but if na Nigerian player now you will hear remours of how he came for training with his wife and children

Godson201333:
He said country and not within Nigeria..

He wants to go on vacation outside the country with just 200K? Except if it is near by republic of Benin.
Flight ticket alone self, before you talk of accommodation and feeding, what of sight seeing?

owbabs:
Please create a new topic for Qatar 2022.

This one is already too long

Qualifiers for Qatar 2022 is no where near commencement. So why create a thread for it?

The qualifiers for AFCON 2019 is in progress. The numencleature should follow that line.

Dear terzurum5, I feel it is still early to include Qatar 2022 to the title. We can include that when the WCQ begins.

We also need to do away with "the dawn of a new era".

tbaba1234:
I have not watched them but that is because i'd need a good link to do so. Maybe when they are in a major competition.

That said, they could be good but i wish we sought genuine 18 and 19 year olds. Knowing the Nigerian context, i expect the coaches to put in more effort to get players within the right age bracket. There is so much talent for Nigeria in this age bracket, we should not be carrying old players.

Sure Paul Aigbogun is working towards improving on the quality of the team.

On the age cheating allegations, it is left to the Coaches and the NFF to sort that out.

What I will not do is to condemn the team or wish they fail because of age cheating allegations.

tbaba1234:
Many of those players are overaged. If we move forward with this team, we might do well in Africa or even the world but they will be no benefit at the end of the day.

Akpan Udoh was invited because some of the other keepers were flopping.

There are already plans to continue to infuse quality into the team.

The last U17 was a big flop and that definitely will have it's negative toll on the building of the team.

I believe with time you will start noticing the exceptional ones among them. I don't think you have even watched them play.

terzurum5:
What title do you suggest?

We can take off the "Russia 2018" and "Dawn of a New era".

BascoVanVeli:
You said people don't want to come to terms with the fact that we need to give Upcoming strikers opportunities. But u are the Poster-Oga of sticking with experience so how will that work?

It means you don't understand my view on this.

soetanoreoluwa:
See what Henry is doing to galasatary defender and goalkeeper

The 2018/2019 hyping season starts.

BascoVanVeli:
Mr Experience? Are you sure they are there yet?

Who are where yet?

tbaba1234:
Ideye was shut out because he was inactive. We should move on from the likes of Ideye and Ighalo now. Give opportunities to the upcoming talents.

I don't know why people don't want to accept this simple fact.
