Osimhen should be the captain. He expects excellence all the time. He is calmer when he is a captain but the team knows what he wants.

9JAMac10:
Oshimen, no one understands his attitude toward his teammates

He yells at everyone on the field, even LOOKMAN who's everywhere on the pitch and outperforming him today.

He left the field to boos from the crowd. The coach should penalize him for his nasty stank attitude

We should be more clinical though. Can't get enough lol

this game we suppose dey win like 7-0. Total dominance

Onyeka seems tired

And Chuks for Akor point

lbrichman2:
Just give me Onyedika for Ndidi and Fisayo for Onyeka

I agree. Onyedika is a cleaner player

mostob:
Ademola Lookman... So much for selfishness. A selfish player would have taken that shot instead of passing. BTW, Onyedika should come in for Ndidi early. We can't afford another red card biko

Kai Iwobi.. what a game he is putting here

Iwobi na beast!!

Mozambique go good to spell oh

Osayi no sabi cross

Great. I hope we perfect it and make the right substitutions early.

jihday:
We start with the same team that beat Tunisia

Gernot Rohr doing the Lord's work lol

no

Elock1:
Is it too early . 🌚🌚

What a save!!

Nigeria this is how you hold when you are ahead. Cameroon defending like their life depends on it.

very well said Nerdie

TheSuperNerd:
They showed it vs CIV. Still not well versed in the possession game but they are a side who can hurt you in direct transitions and counters.

Kofane is proving Eto'o right to have dropped Vincent Aboubakar.

Eto'o stuck to his list as FA Boss, fired that white guy Marc Brys, and had David Pagou lead this side to the Afcon. So far, it is paying off.

kai they were on their way to make it 3 goals

SA has run out of ideas.. that their free flowing game not dey help them, now they are confused what to do

Love what's happing to SA. Cameroon don improve o

Mali the draw merchants don try for this game.. let's see if they can win on PKs

you mean in time for the WC play offs?

ChrisKels:
Good to have Aina back. Anybody know when Benji and Agu will be back?

6 "2 no too short na

Bassey is 6 "1

Blueelf:
Unpopular opinion but Benjamin fredrick is too short to be a world class centre back

His height will prevent him from reaching his full potential in that position

He's better in a full back or defensive midfield position

oga suppose dey AFCON eh.. just in time for the knockout stage

BankyGee:
Ola Aina is back in Nottingham Forest's starting XI 🔥

Mr. Lulu 🤭🇳🇬

He should continue doing it then so we don't get another DRC treatment.

FiveFootNinja:
To the best of my knowledge, Eric Chelle has had closed door training with the Super Eagles squad only twice since he became head coach: one against Benin in the final WC qualifying game and the other against Tunisia just last week. We know how those games ended.

Eric Chelle is a masterchef. Hopefully he continues to deliver.

Onyedika (Uganda) vs Iwobi (Tunisia)

1. total long balls (map)
2. Key passes gives Iwobi the edge
3. Heatmaps

SofaScore Team of the Tournament for the first 3 rounds

Our best game so far is vs Tunisia -- for the first 75 minutes.

Idiko1:
Nigerians are funny indeed. How could a thinking person decide not to play the only playmaker in the team? Yet you want a squad which has rendered Nigeria style of play very uninteresting. The squad which defeated Uganda reminded many people of Nigerian style of play and even commentors referenced to it.

on paper na 3DMs, that doesn't mean they play the same roles.

jihday:
3 DMs against Mozambique?? Not happening

K. Nwakali's next move -> Turkey

I foresee a CIV vs Nigeria final rematch.

modified

Let me add, on the condition that we get our midfield combinations right, with Onyedika among the pack

mostob:
Let's go

The knockout 16 stage

Good job Ivory Coast
