Goaaaalllll !!! Adefemi !!!

I personally see a game that Nigeria will dominate. The "Dream Team IV" will have higher possession of the ball and the Belgians will do the counter-attacking. All I fear is either Nigeria conceeds too many set-pieces (higher chances of Belgium scoring), either the game remains goalless after extra-time, resulting in penalty shoot-outs, 

That said, NAIJA STILL HEADS TO THE FINAL !!

Seconded !

Man of the match : Vanzekin. Next stop, Belgium. It will not be easy,

Goal !

Penalty for naija !

Odemwingieeeeeeeeee !!!!!!!!!!! I looooove that guy !!!

Genevieve Nanji, hands down.

FBS:
PS: I beg wetin be the name of this guy that plays like Jay-Jay? He played for the u-17 that won the cup?

Wow
I do not remember seeing any player on the pitch with skills close to those Jay-Jay had. Maybe you're talking about Obasi, the n° 7. He was 'aite. But he lacks experience. My favorite player in the squad is Peter Osaze Odemwingie. I want him to shine more !!

@ yommys01 :
YOU should get your facts right. Nigeria tops the group with 7 points. The Netherlands follow with 5 points. And the US stops at 4.

Why were our players so nonchalent ? Like they didn't care if they conceeded a goal or not. Vanzekin, the HELL was he thinking ?!!!!!!
I'm not impressed at all. They have the talent (who ever doubted ?) but certainly not the spirit nor the attitude. I am really pissed. Really.

I didn't even know the US team was one-man down (red card after 4 min ). I started the match around the fifteenth min. We better get a second goal, or else,

I respect the work of Obasi for that Isaac goal. Fantastic skill there !  
Go Naija go Naija go !!

Mehn, I know there's a topic about the true ages of Nigerian footballers but, really, how old is Promise Isaac ? The number 10 of this olympic squad ? He looks older than my dad, meaning he is close to his fifties !!!!!! Osaze is the only player with his real age on the pitch. He is 27 but still looks (much) younger than those who claim to be under 23. Pfff, 

From what I've seen through the results in these oplympics - 'haven't managed to watch any game yet - CIV seem to be a far bigger threat to the Eaglet's defence than Argentina. Did you see how CIV schooled Serbia ? The Argentines managed to score only one goal against the Aussies.

Now don't get me wrong, Argentina will be a tough side to play, no doubt. They will completely out-play the Nigerians in the midfield (Gago, Riquelme, Lavezzi, not to mention Messi). Nevertheless, I feel we (Nigerians) could manage to take advantage of our physique. Stamina in such a level is a key to success. And luckily for us, Nigeria looks stronger in that realm.

Anyway, I just feel the Ivorians will do whatever it takes to defeat "Le Géant d'Afrique" as they dub Nigeria over there. They will be more motivated in that feat than the Argies. But before even thinking of who we will face, let us beat the US and qualify securely.

I wouldn't mind being locked in an elevator with Rama Yade, France's Secretary of State in charge of foreign affairs and human rights. Beautiful and brainy, what else ?

Funny thread.
My father once said that : if Ogbeche (ex-Paris St Germain) claimed he was 19 years old back then, well, his son - me, of course - could claim his is about 8 years old ! At that time, I was 18.

I also ROLFed when an elderly lady asked Oruma (Marseille) to admit he is barely younger than she is (I'll have given her roughly 55 years) on the club's tv channel. Ouch !
