Why do most coaches feel that when you need goals you play many strikers and a very thin midfield. That's a very wrong assumption. The best match play by chelle, was the match against Russia.
Can't he continue playing formation like that

TheLoneCitizen:
If we beat them 2-1 and collect one yellow card, the game goes to FIFA.

Who will choose the nation they like

Ppogbae:
Let's suppose we don't qualify and sack Chelle - where to now? Back to square one?

TheSuperNerd:
Zimbabwe... Job well done! SA collected red card too.

Omo... which kain wahala be this? Benin and Rohr is the final boss of this WC Qualification?? Na wa ooo

Get ready for the game of our lives!!!

semid4lyfe:

Move on. Coaches come coaches go. Na their work be that

Truidstarr:
South Africans are already planning for the worst in case they don't qualify. They are talking about the Calvin Bassey handball. According to them it should not have been given as a goal. They plan to request for a replay or get FIFA to dock us 3 points. Source:Online chatter.

minfelix:

minfelix:
na here we dey na…e go shock many of una 😀

BascoVanVeli:
There's not one poor northern player on this team. In fact they are some of our best legs.
Also, these are the Nigeria Flying Eagles not South East or Delta Flying Eagles.

TheSuperNerd:
Chaaaiiii... I will miss Sani Suleiman against Argentina oooo. Orseer Achichi or whoever will play LW gotta be ready to play proper balluuu.

TheSuperNerd:
Daga, Sani and Maigana all unlucky to see their chances hit the post/bar.

This team has some good ballers. I keep saying this. This 2025 class will give us players for the Super Eagles down the road.

2025 FIFA U20 WC MD 3

Group C

Mexico 1-0 Morocco (16 y/o Gilberto Mora with the winner. Kid plays like Iniesta/Pedri. On 3 goals, 1 assist now. One of my fav players at this U20 WC).

Spain 1-0 Brazil (Brazil missed loads of sitters. Unlucky generation).

Brazil crashes out with one point from the group of death.
Morocco goes through as Grp leaders with 6pts
Mexico 2nd with 5pts.
Spain finishes 3rd with 4pts and assured of a round of 16 place.



Group D

Argentina 1-0 Italy

Australia 3-1 Cuba


Argentina advances with a perfect 9pts like Japan in Grp A.
Italy finishes 2nd on 4pts.
Australia 3rd with 3pts and -2 GD so they wait too to see their chances.

Egypt and Australia are currently bottom of the 3rd placed teams table as both sides are on -2 GD and 3pts.

South Korea tops on 4pts and has qualified.
Spain is next on 4pts too.

South Africa is 3rd on 3pts and +4 GD and play USA in their last grp E game.

We shouldn't start Osimhen against Lesotho. Save him for Benin.

AndSunGorilla:
Who else? Are you thinking what am thinking?

Odunayaw:
Why you de in a hurry to exhaust your gba bundles na

yinkeys:
Coach for at least bring back Aribo
That central creative midfield is too thin
Only Alex Iwobi

solonnachi:
I will be happy if Chelle pairs Osimhen and Iwobi in attack like the way Iwobi is played in Fulham while Sam Chuks plays 10

TheSuperNerd:
Egypt vs Chile U20 game was fun all the way. Enjoyed every minute. Egypt brought their die hard "never give up" and "time wasting" tactics. 😂

But the highlight of the game was the last major moment of the game. Egypt gets a FK on the left halfspace side just at the edge of box. #10 Abdallah line up to take it but their #15 argued that Abdallah is left footed and wont score from that angle so he (#15) should be the one to take it.
Other Egypt players wanted Abdallah to take it as he seems their main FK taker (he hit the crossbar with an earlier effort in the first half but from a favorable angle for his left foot) BUT THE COACH ORDERED ABDALLAH TO STAND DOWN AND ALLOW THE right footed #15 take it.

Everyone held their breath. The #15 curled it beautifully into the back of the net. SCENES MY PEOPLE! SCENES!!! LOL

That is how Egypt beat host, Chile 2-1 and wait to see their chances of qualification as one of the 3rd best placed teams.

Predator87:
NFF should push for Golden Eaglets to be at the next U17 AFCON after winning the 3rd place game. Why should east africa get 3 slots and west africa B that produces all the U17 world champions only have 2 Last edition it was east africa that got 3 slots and that was what pushed Nigeria out. Also East Africa were so poor last time around. None of their teams qualified for the knockout round. This is were the NFF needs to come in and lobby CAF to increase the # of slots for west africa B but unfortunately we have buffoons running Nigeria football

Spainever:
If they use it the table will be SA 11 points Nigeria 9points and Benin drop also

Starboytwo:
Maybe we are now using real young u17 boys, compared to the usual tactics of age cheats which maybe aid us, I guess 🤷.

Amedino99:
i was surprised seeing 10 goals as the highest we had since i can recall kanu playing for arsenal, inter and ajax. Was he a striker or support striker cos him stats always dey confuse person.

drDoom3:
This is the same Frankfurt that got booted out of the Europa league by the 17th placed team in the Prem last season. And that was with Ekitike.

Now they are arguably worse. Wahi is nowhere near Ekitike levels. And still obliterated Gala.

There are levels to this game.

BankyGee:
Highest 🔥🇳🇬
🙇🏾‍♂️🙇🏾‍♂️🙇🏾‍♂️

TheSuperNerd:
That was a penalty. VAR decision just shocked me. If they gave Bameyi's then that one should have been given. But then cant blame our loss on one VAR decision.
