Seems Halimatu Ayinde is a Basketballer o, this your Midfield shoke!

Yewande B, Michelle A, Glory O, Blessing D, Rofiat I, Ashleigh P, Christy U, Onyi E, Tony P, Deborah A, Esther O, Ifeoma O, Gift M … are all debuting in their first World Cup, Only Yewande and Onumonu are 29yrs and above..

The purported number one team in the tournament had 14 debutants, bro. US went to Australia to win the cup not to fan the glory of yesteryears.

Ireland coach: Zambia Has Exposed Super Falcons To Us

Ireland Women’s national team coach Vera Pauw says his players now have an idea on how to tackle the Super Falcons, as he expressed his delight with the run-out against Zambia in a pre-Women's World Cup tune-up, reports BSNSports.com.ng.

Speaking after Ireland’s 3-2 defeat of Zambia at Dublin’s Tallaght Stadium on Thursday evening, Pauw said the Copper Queens offered a similar challenge to Group B opponents Nigeria.
“We know what it is to play an African team now,” the former South Africa coach said.

“You will never get this against a European team, this style of play, physical pressure, pressure that constantly goes over you in power and pace.

“That sort of play you will not get.”

He does not need any preparatory match with any African team to knockdown Nigerian Falcons. All he needs to do is take a look at the tired legs Nigeria brough to Australia.

Deltamani:
Yes She started as an attacker but finally settled down as a Defender which she has been doing till date. I think injuries also played his path too cause she was released by Madrid CFF after recovering from a Long term injury and with her contract out, came back to Nigeria before she finally signed for the Israel Clubside she currently playing for.

Just hope she play her way back to a Top Club/League side as she possesses a lot of qualities of a good Defender.

In bold are part of the sporting business. Professional teams are not patient enough to wait an injured players to recover. This is juncture where national teams come help. She is very young and should have been included.

Deltamani:
Okay ooo

Deltaman,

I must say it is very refreshing to read from you. Nigerians need to look beyond the bridge of their noses in order to grow. USWNT went to Australia with 14 debutants. Yet, Nigerian women team is loaded with fat and tired legs.

WHERE DID CHIDINMA OKEKE GET IT WRONG


Chidinma Nkeruka Okeke (22yrs) Hapoel Beer Sheva FC, ISRAEL 🇮🇱

Okeke is a physically strong defender known for her speed, technique and offensive capabilities. She can play as a full-back or Center Back although she usually plays on the right. She has good dribbling skill and is noted for her involvement in counter-attacks by making crosses or long passes, a defender that showed her defensive ability and attacking flair by producing a genius performance when she replaced Faith Michael for Nigeria against Norway in their first game of the FIFA Women's World Cup. Her physique enables her to perform well in aerial duels and 1v1 situations.

Chidinma Okeke started her career in soccer as an attacker. She did not get anything wrong however Nigeria did. Nigerian football authorities hire football agents as coaches.

enomakos:
respect the coach choice na

I guess you will sing a different tune when the Falcons are knocked out at the group stage. We have seen coach's choice over and over in Nigeria. The Falcon's backfield barely survived the Haitian squad.

Tflex01:
Is there any part of Lagos that belongs to the Igbos??

I guess Lagos State government lacked prudence. Entire Lagos State is in a state of decay, yet Alaba Market creates the most concerns.

Tflex01:
To say the truth, the biggest historical sin of the Yorubas is the swiftness in which we quickly accepted the Igbos back and make them too comfortable in SW after the war. If anything like war happen again, I don't think the Yorubas will be so stupid again.


Soludo has demolished 100s of houses in Anambra but that is not a problem... The problem is that Sanwo-Olu can not do the same thing in Lagos because we have some persons that are impossible to please here. Yet they have blamed Tinubu and Sanwo-Olu for all the building collapse we have had in recent years.

I guess the stupidest blunder was the swiftness in which Yoruba joined northern region of Nigeria in the fight to bring Biafra back to Nigeria.

udofia234:
OK sir! Better to play for your fathers land than plating for a strange land! Where is dele Ali, Abraham, nedum onuoha, and many others that dumped Nigeria for england? Wait and see bro

I had dumped Nigeria for Republic of Benin. Father land for the ants.

Danielnino00:
Normally,I'm a critic of Randy, but with regards to this list, he tried..it's an okay list... The problem with some Nigerian football fans is that they don't follow our national teams well.. most are probably unaware of Okobi situation at her club and the fact that she hardly starts for the super Falco anymore... Not to talk about that interview she gave about Randy last year... I saw someone commenting that Macleans should have made the squad and I pointed out that she got her chance at the last WAFCON but didn't impress, oga said she wasn't invited for the WAFCON, I just SMH

The list looks like a group stage dropout. It is heavy on the tired legs. I watch Falcon's preparatory match with Haiti, it showed Nigeria had woods at the back field.

mostob:
I've been a critic of Randy but in this Okobi issue, I support her exclusion 100%.


1. That interview was wrong.

2. There is nobody in that team that doesn't deserve her spot except Deborah Abiodun (arguable)

3. Okobi has not really been exceptional for her club.

finito

One of the reasons Nigeria is a backwater. Nigerians have been forced to swallow craps hence multiple replications of bad leadership. I guess the chase for excellence calls for merit.

JohnBullMySon:
I have been a huge fan of Okobi, somehow I still am. But it's high time we start tackling this kind of behavior. Okobi will never do this in her club. It's only with the NTs where hierarchy has been destroyed. That's where they feel comfortable doing it.

I don't have any problem if pundits criticize Randy for removing her if the reason was not indiscipline.

Well, the so-called Randy is a college coach not a club coach.

The brother is also a husband to the pastor's wife. "After head, shoulder carry". It is still in the family.

charlesemeka85:
him, daga, Eletu, nnadi,Ogwuche and sarki

I guess Benjamin Frederick. I must include Agbalaka too.

Joebie:
Benjamin Frederick is the best player in this team

The boy is good.

yoged:
Gone are the days when you'll start noticing talents from our Under age players, I didn't even see a single sensible player in this team. So terrible and dreadful.

I guess the defenders had some skillful talents. The moronic attackers had erroneously conceived ideas to become heroic goal scorers.

GreatVocalist:
Apart from that one good move, dude has been killing the game. He's too individualistic. His first instinct is to dribble, and even when he has the option to pass, he chooses to dribble. Not a team player.

Every dumbass Nigerian attacker is an individualistic player. The sickness of individualism must be cured if Nigerian football teams are to enjoy championship in future. The worst players on the U20 team in Argentina were #15, #19, #14 and #17. These dumb players would not have been selected if I had to contribute officially.

webdevprof:
LoL. Local Igbo man went to a Euro War Plane exhibition event and starts using it to brainwash foolish followers

You have to blame the confusion, if any, on Whiteangel1234.

Madmohamed123:
Shame on buhari shame on all government officials this people don't have shame at all how can big for nothing country abandon their citizen to another country to evaluate from war turn country.

Buhari is most useless human being i ever seen this government and their officials are very useless.

South Africa is the one evacuating Nigeria from Sudan to Egypt and good for nothing president is doing nothing.

All this government officials from the president down are very stupi.d

Please be noted Nigeria is not big. The fact a country is carrying an idiotic population such as Nigeria does not translate into big. Nigeria is not the biggest in Africa with respect to land mass and its population is half idiotic.

OBI GOES TO LONDON EVERY DAY. EVEN OWNS HOUSES THERE.

DOES HE SEE ANY STREET THERE THAT LOOKS LIKE THAT FILTHY STREET HE'S JOGGING IN WITH NASTY OPEN GUTTERS, NO SIDEWALKS AND DUSTY STREET?

USELESS.

AND HE WAS A GOVERNOR IN THAT STATE FOR 8 YEARS.

OPEN GUTTER SPECIALISTS.

PEDESTRIANS?

NO, THEY HAVE NO RIGHTS TO THEIR OWN DESIGNATED SIDEWALKS.

AFTER ALL ONLY CAR OWNERS ARE TAXPAYERS.

PEDESTRIANS CAN WALK ON THE SAND OR EVEN IN THE GUTTER IF THEY LIKE.

USELESS SO-CALLED LEADERS.

STREET WHERE NORMAL HUMAN BEINGS LIVE, IN A PLACE WHERE OBI OWNS HOUSES, BUT REFUSED TO REPLICATE SUCH IN ONITSHA AS GOVERNOR

https://thecityfix.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/Brazil-Sidewalks_feature.jpg

Are you this dumb? How on earth do you remotely expect any governor to replicate London in Nigeria within 30 years in office?

The dude is tubed-up for life. Nigeria is now worse than dilapidated.

gidgiddy:
Its very unfortunate that the public health care system in Nigeria is shambolic. Things that shouldn't be killing people are killing people daily. Every responsible government should prioritise health, but that is not the case in Nigeria

Please, tell which sector of Nigerian society is not unfortunate? It is very shameful to associate any form of nationality with Nigeria.

helinues:
You need to change your mindset and also surround yourself with positive energy

You can surround yourself with positive energy from heaven, Nigeria has no upward progress as a destiny. It will continue to dilapidate in every phrase of human nature.

Corridon:
Nairaland is not a place for kids. Be informed.

You could be correct about Nairaland and place for kids. However, there is nothing about kids in agitation of homeland. You could be an adult who lacked wisdom.

Darren95:
Igbos led by Ojukwu fought against the creation of South South. They brought Biafra war on us the moment Gowon created South South. Very evil and jealous people. See people who call us brothers but fought against creation of South South region from old eastern region. We can’t forget so soon.

Niger Delta remember history ooh! Igbo people think say dem wise.

My Niger Delta people, remember how Igbos brought Biafra by force to our land and killed our fathers, mothers, children and relatives just because we decided to be Niger Deltans and not Biafra.

Today these Biafran people want to be President of Nigeria, this is very risky for Niger Deltans. What will these Igbo Biafra Peter Obi do to us this time Will they cause another war in Nigeria?

Niger Delta must remember history and avoid these igbos who call us betrayers. They can never be trusted.

With the bolded, can anyone argue against Nigeria being called basket of fools?

The bitterest enemy of Biafrans and Ndigbo are the Yoruba. Yoruba engineered and executed the massacres in Asaba and Ogba Egbema.

Broveens42:
Says an ignorant human being who doesn't know, so many pro biafra groups hold rallies all year round, irrespective of the outcome of an election..
Here's the latest

The jackass is a typical Nigerian. I really want to have an Igbo nation state parallel to the basket of fools called Nigeria.

IyaebeTheGreat:
Biafra or reclaiming of the acclaimed stolen mandate? When Soludo warn about nzogbu nzogbu politics they wanted his head. This is a practical definition of Confusion

Most Igbo people are not interested in useless Nigerian politics. They want their homeland to show what unity is all about. Undoubtably, there few knuckleheads such as Soludo who would flow with the stupidity called Nigeria.

Hezzyluv:
Oga shortup

You speak like someone who's brain is beneath his foots.

Almost everything u're using today ranging from Cars, gadgets, clothes, perfumes, Houses etc, is more of making rich men richer.

How much be 8or9dollars Compare to the latest phone you used to typed this

Nigeria is not branded basket of fools for nothing.

*This is written by Eze Uba*

If only any of the Igbo states had access to the coast. As Igboland is totally landlocked, it will mean biafra will be surrounded by Nigerian territory, which is a worse proposition than the status quo. Any attempt to force any of the current South South states to join biafra (for access to the coast) will spell the end of that enterprise, as Nigeria will never allow that. Besides, who forces others into a union while crying that you're trying to break free from a forced union yourself? That is the irony and dilemma of biafra…
