Zaidu Sanusi’s season is over after suffering an injury today, confirms Sérgio Conceição.

I don’t understand why he even started, can’t they rest him? All the other Nigerians didn’t start this weekend, Osimhen and Lookman didn’t even make match day squad, now he has gone on a lengthy injury

Zaidu Sanusi’s season is over after suffering an injury today, confirms Sérgio Conceição.

Joebie:
I resolved never to read anything from Solace again.

lol, it’s a clip of Folorunso’s goal

Joebie:
Spaletti is interested!

if it was during Rohr’s time, he’d have reached out to him long time ago

charlesemeka85:
Folorunsho’s goal against Juve should be a contender for serie A goal of the season 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥


Any who has contacts in the nff should notify him of this kid.

didn’t he score a better one few weeks ago?

Forget Ladan bosso a very lazy under 20 coach.

He can't scout and have no tactics

The NFF is playing with our cadet teams that supposed to be chopping out talents every 2 years. Someone like Yobo, remo stars coach etc ought to be given the job to manage under 20 so as to gradually introduce them to managing the national team

in NFF’s defense, the all Africa games is in few weeks, no time to hire a new coach that will start scouting for players and all that wahala, so I guess they went for Ladan who already has a team

mostob:
The thing is Paul Onuachu doesn't have a guaranteed spot in the team. As of now, the strikers in conversation are Osimhen, Awoniyi, Boniface. Outside those, we have Moffi, Sadiq, Akor and Orban. The competition choke.

I’ll take Elijah ahead of the last 3 guys

Amedino99:
this one no follow oo. Haaland has 27 goals in 29 appearances for his national team

but can’t qualify them for the euros

elyte89:
Well dts true as I hear say Algeria 🇩🇿 and Egypt 🇪🇬 Dey ontop him matter 😎. Anyway if d guy leaves ,who shld we employ?

1) Amunike 2) finidi 3) Tom sainfet 4) herves renard 5) salisu 😀

Egypt already hired their legendary player, Hossam Hassan

Goke7:
aaah, afcon highest goal scorer, who e offend?

I think there are reports of the players bringing in prostitutes to the camp

Egypt coach to Afcon was on a 200k salary. These Northafrican countries get bastard money

Joebie:
My focus now is will Jpes remain or not?

Seems Algeria wants him

We need to be resolute defensively, they’ll throw everything at us now

komekn:
Depend on your perspective, is it on performance for club and league or past performances for the SE.❓

e reach Aribo turn you start to dribble yourself but when it is Iheanacho you have a firm answer

Joebie:
Thats the point. Our players need all the motivation like they never met CIV before. A team that lost scandalously to EG 4-0. Chamged rheir coach and have managed to pull through to the finals in front of their home fans each game, have only one thing in their minds which is revenge. They are not under pressure to win the trophy because all hope seemed lost at a point. They are determined to beat us, and if they do, the trophy will just be an icing on the cake.

I repeat, what we need right now is the right minds around the players talking the right talk, not politicians which could be counter productive .

they are under pressure to win it in front of their fans, I’m sure if it was the other way round you’ll agree Nigeria is under pressure to win in front of the fans

DissTroy:
And this overconfidence from fans and players alike might be our undoing.

don’t think the players are overconfident

Mujtahida:
I'm not in CIV but Nigerians have concluded that they have already won it. I don't know whether we can sense it but there's this certainty that we have won it.

I don’t know where una get this confidence from

Joebie:
Tomorrow any team can win. But when it comes to this question you need to be objective. Look at it both ways.

Modified
If Nigeria were in their shoes. Having lost the first game by a slim margin, in front of our fans and have had a fairytale run so far with revenge now in our minds. Will we really be under pressure?

yes we will, serious pressure sef

mostob:
Omo... USA dey wire D'Tigress.
31 points lead

however they’ve qualified for the Olympics as they beat Senegal in their first game and Senegal lost to Belgium in their own second game, that means qualification for Nigeria

Moniter0:
Alhassan is commended for his athleticism however he is too rash. He alone conceded the penalty and also conceded the free kick that forced the keeper to make that punch from which South Africa capitalized on the rebound and almost scored. And he was supposed to mark the guy that went for the rebound but he was caught ball watching.

he isn’t too rash, anybody can make the foul

Kog45:
Uncle K' na nickname nau just like Iheanacho "senior man"....in Man city then Iheanacho nickname na Uncle😙

oh ok

Olodo coach

komekn:
Understand something Ekong was born in the Netherlands where there is automatic birth data capture. It's impossible to fake or lie about your age.

He is supposedly older than Kenneth Omeruo and a year younger than Ahmed Musa. Does anybody actually believe that.

Leave the age thing to one side.

Ekong calls Omeruo ‘Uncle K’ 😀

Oops so sorry bro...
I remember a particular arsenal match. we were hugging and dragging ourselves. Like a minute later, I felt some cool breeze finding their ways into my chest region. I looked down to find out what was wrong only to discover about three buttons have been ripped off. Football is just crazy.

How far about the phone now?

this remind me of the day arsenal and Liverpool played 4-4, after Arshavin scored the 4th I jumped and hugged one random guy 😀

Samueltemi337:
I have never been this tense in a football match before


What a game!

can’t believe Nigeria can give me this level of anxiety

Lookman should have scored 🤦🏿

Team bench Osimhen how far 😏

Penalty!!!!

We playing a high line now, seems to be working
