How the Super Eagles were cheated out

Ok, we need your comment on this. First, there was a shirt pulling on Iheanacho, then the leg above knee level, and the hand ball
inside 18 yard box. What do you guys have to say on how the Eagles were cheated??

chrisooblog:
hi everyone hope y'all are doing great won't lie still hurting from yesterday felt really bad this morning but that's football for you. i know we were all feeling bad and i can understand the need to vent but not be too harsh on the players especially ighalo. odion knows he ffd up and his terrible miss will leave with him for the rest of his career.

special shout out to musa you proved your doubters me included that you are a big game player.

francis well done kept with maturity and calmness beyond your young age sky is your starting point.

omeruo, balogun, ekong et al kudos to you guys mikel did his best wasn't always on form but gave his best and led his troops admirably.

i think rohr should be retained even though i understand and respect some posters opinions that he should go i feel the positives he has brought to our football are alot with addition and discovery of better players i feel he can achieve more but the backroom staff has to be juggle with the addition of young enterprising nigerian coaches to the technical crew. amunike and finidi come to mind. salisu should be permanently posted to the chan eagles.

this current administration of nff led by amaju pinnick should be re-elected but he should play his politics well and paddy up with the sport ministry/fg so they wont cause confusion like the election charade of 2014.

to all the posters mutjahida, joebie, icon4, kog45, goodjoe, safarigirl, forgiveness, supernerd, basco, komekn, icon79, aig17 and others so numerous to mention you all rock!

GO SUPER EAGLES LIVE TO SOAR ANOTHER DAY

What other things did he bring? Combination? Hold up play? Ariel dominance? Shots on target? Chance created?
What are the other things he brought?

Goke7:
but how will a striker miss that for Christ' sake, Honestly I forgive Aiyegbeni

forgiveness:
He must not outstrech his arm above his head but he did exactly that. Finito

TheGoodJoe:
The outstretched part of the write up is when trying to judge if it accidental or not. If a player outstretches his arm and an opponent plays the ball, it is taken that the player stretched his arms intentionally to deny the opposition a scoring opportunity.

In this case Rojo's arms were not totally outstretched. He jumped to nod the ball, nodded it and accidentally it hit his hand. Never intentional and purely accidental. No way a penalty.

Finito.

Certitude:
I don't see why anyone thinks Idowu was bad yesterday. I feel he has made that left spot his. If Ebuehi was to come in, it should have been for Iheanacho, with Moses moved upfront.

edi287:
Rohr practically used this WC as a learning experience. The guy was not joking when he said he was preparing for 2022. The only problem I have with that is he'll be like 68 and I doubt he has it in him to reinvent himself. Never been an attacking coach and won't start now.
At least he has learned to play Mikel deeper thanks to Okocha and José Mourinho
Well he has the AFCON qualifiers and AFCON to prove himself. If he fails at both - he gets the boot. Personally I'd fire him right away but let's have "continuity".
Yes this was a tough group and yes we were underdogs from the start, but that should never absolve Rohr of some big mistakes he made in this tourney.

Loogan:
When you want to defend a cross one of the basics is for your arms not to be lifted, the head is what is needed, rojos arms were so high, he nodded the ball and it hits his arm, how can you say that is not a penalty? This is not ball to hand, he attempted a header he didn’t get the hit and it took a deflection of his hand.
If the rules cannot be applied to other wc matches like the Iran potugal match, you cannot justify them enough.
The kick on nacho head in the box was without doubt a penalty

Kog45:
Sir,before the match I posted recent performance of Ighalo and Iheanacho which wasn't good enough but some turned it to Ighalo vs Iheanacho

Imagine our two strikers went goal drought in the last 5 matches before WC and failed to get ordinary assist prior to Argentina match,both were blunt and abysmal against Croatia and Iceland.And what happened against Argentina they failed woefully.

Ighalo and Iheanacho failed us when it matter most though Ighalo miss hurt and i think this is the time for him to quit with the likes of Daniel Akpeyi,Ekene Ezenwa,Ogenyi Onazi,Echiejile Elderson and Joel Obi.

Iheanacho was rated the worst player yesterday.

Ighalo and Iheanacho are the worst Nigeria player at 2018 WC,no sentiment and my candid opinion.

Kog45:
Sir it's simple,we cannot decide but the NFF.Hope he has the mind to survive the politicking of NFF.

But big question,can Rohr do more than this tactically?

Icon4s:
Happening now!

Ighalo being chased by Team mates for possible linching

BascoVanVeli:
Good luck with that one.

BascoVanVeli:
What does their prayer take from you? If people want to pray it is what it is.

goldfish80:
They were praying so God will be partial and favour Ngr?
Argentines themselves are 95% catholics..Una Wan monopolize God... Lol

daveP:
It's as glaring as the moon is tonight. who the afcon epp true true?


Same for the once carling cup that big teams are now not taking serious again.


I'm I overreacting? Yeah

But it's still the truth!!!

unicorn79:
Don't worry. I have received the confirmation. We will win. Quote me after the game.

OMANBALA1:
Its about time we close this danm thread.

do4luv14:
You guys shud stop insulting ighalo here or I will turn dis thread on it's very end enuf

Mujtahida:
Rohr finished us when he refused to make substitutions to at least ease off the build up of the argentine momentum
