Oga no single shot at goal is very poor. We only beat them to possession I think. But hey let’s savor the win and dream Argentina.

soetanoreoluwa:
It is not a fact! We didn't play poorly... You people self

He’s been chained by others. Now let’s do it for the first time in our football history.

TheSuperNerd:
Not in this state below....

Even gods can be stopped and chained.

Yes we need to win. No calculations. Get that early goal. Protect it, and rely on counters to add to the tally. Oh I didn’t say earlier, I love that Mikel role today.

Hkana:
In addition, our defence should be more disciplined. We've given away 2 penalties already in the 2 matches played. The Argies would be looking to get some too.

Hopefully we don't give them.

Anybody here with a means of reaching the team should do well to extend our pleasure to the team and to tell them to get into the Argentina match with the "we WILL beat them" mindset.

Lol.. kai

Funniest Twitter rants-chain of the day

Nigeria-Iceland Aftermath. #NGAISL

Twitter Nigeria finished Guardian UK...

The Guardian UK really got lashed for this biased headline.

Well, whether they like it or not...
#ArgentinaIsGoingDown!!!!

Enjoy...

Oga what will happen will happen. No such thing as bad luck. I’ve already shared my insight on what we must do. Rohr needs to get it right. We can’t afford to start slowly all the time. We’ve been on this path before. Do I want us to get to the next round? Yes. But we have to be organized enough to cage Messi as other teams have been doing, and avoid free kicks around our 18. Messi is still very dangerous. I hope Rohr will tell the boys the right things from the start. Messi must be tamed and not over respected. That migit of a devil can score 4 goals EASILY on his good day.

Triniti:
Joebie please stop spreading bad luck here, man you have been telling us that Argentina is going to beat us for the past couple of hours now, allow us savor the euphoria of this win nah

Sir which comments na? Follow all my comments and u will understand where I’m coming from.

Icon4s:
I can't even believe it is our own joebie that has been making all such comments.

Something must have gone wrong somewhere.

Kai who noticed? After Musa’s attempt at a hat-trick hit the bar, the ball fell to Moses. Moses was like, “make I try my own too”.

Me sef go happy na. But I don’t think it will happen.

A draw? Maybe

Meliforme:
Because of this comment of yours, Nigeria will beat Argentina.

Sir tbaba. We’ve not had a good performance between then and today.

tbaba1234:
That second half performance is our best since the Argentina game.

That’s my only fear. We must start well. But I expect Messi to be at his best. We must do our best to cage him just as other countries have done recently, and avoid giving away free kicks around our 18

tbaba1234:
Argentina plays in a way that favors our counter-attacking strength. We just need to start early, we can not wait till the second half.

Ok I’m hoping in turns out so...

TheSuperNerd:
It is not celebrating too early... It is our wind. Our wind is back. Messi will be stifled. Musa will soar. Nigeria will soar. Argentina is crashing out. We are gonna break the jinx.

#ArgentinaIsGoingDown Oooohhh yeeeaahhh!! The Power of Naija!!!!

Wetin u expect? When some of u here believe he is 35. Lol
Too performance from Uzoho by the way.

safarigirl:
You guys are so immersed in your "I-told-you-so's and dragging stale argument, we are not even talking enough about the players

Uzoho today, became the second youngest goalie to keep a clean sheet in the World Cup after a certain Chinese goalie in 1966. He is currently trending on Twitter

I am so happy for him because he is getting seen by clubs and it will look good on his record.

Very possible. Messi 3-2 Musa
I hope not though. But don’t celebrate too early.

TheSuperNerd:
Funny enough they have already updated it like several mins back. Lol... Musa for brace no.6 against Argentina? #ArgentinaIsGoingDown

Ok that’s good!

I’m sure they have always been doing a good job.

TheSuperNerd:
The excitement of Shaqiri's goal. It just sealed a grand prize for me for the day. Lol...

OptaNigeria don't always get their stats right all the time but dem dey try must of the time. I have updated it here shaa. Will tell them to correct theirs too.

U should have caught that SuperNerdie. That was a super easy one. Ok pls have them update it.

do I want us to beat Argie? Yes. Will we? I still doubt it

TheSuperNerd:
OptaNigeria ooooo... chaaiiii... How can? Let me update! Didn't even check well. It is five oooo... B ahahahahahaha... Don't worry he will make it six against Argentina. Go warm up your argue boys oooo... I dey come... My Boys are coming. Our wind is back.

Omeruo was our best defender today

BascoVanVeli:
Omerou

Nov '14: Nigeria 3-1 Sudan
Mar '15: Nigeria 2-0 Niger

Jun '18: Nigeria 2-0 Iceland

#NGAISL #NGA #WorldCup

Switzzzzzz

Can Stoke still take offers for a loan deal?

chiscodedon:
My only wish, if etebo never signed for stoke city yet... That guy is a complete midfielder

Moses was very effective from the right with his crosses. He won’t be able to do the same from the left. Ebuehi will have to be confined to the bench for now. Good thing is Ebuehi has now made an official appearance for Nigeria.

How I wish Joel could play as a wing back.

Oasis007:
It wasn't special to me, cos prior to the World Cup, especially during the Friendlies we are 2nd Half Team.

We were lucky to have Musa in the Game, coz the Vikings are weak already, thus Musa's pace was exploited positively.

Also I think the Pairing of Musa and Iheanacho should be maintained, Ighalo is kinda too slow for 3 - 5 - 2 Formation. Tyrone should be used as a RWB, while Moses is tried out as LWB.

u know na

TheSuperNerd:
Yeah.. Yours was a "finer" remark too on "knowing it all"

Come on now Joebie, go charge up your arguie lads..

**pats him too in the back** #ArgentinaIsGoingDown

Kai legbe legbe.. all join na.

soetanoreoluwa:
What did you see in their face?
Passion, fighting, challenge, ride or they die ... Tonight they will not only shaku shaku they will do legbe legbe

Ok you are right.
*pats you in the back*

If it were some monikers u know where u would have ended, after that your fine remark. Let me not stain myself in the mud

TheSuperNerd:
Lol... Old enough to ignore the silky question.

Listen Joebie... It is okay to maintain your stance even if wrong. But it is absolutely childish and portrays ordinariness and low level pettiness to bring in the I-too-know angle. I presented facts and fine angles.... But you? You resorted to the silly righteous talk of me being all-knowing... Mister. That is so childish of you. Being married does not in anyway mean maturity. Happy weekend.

Hahaha... at least the bench for do shaku shaku, abi dem wan win cup first?

soetanoreoluwa:
If Nah me self shaku shaku step go evaporates in my cerebral cortex...

Shaku Wetin Abeg shout goaaaaaaaaalllllll!

Sir Nerdie. We had an argument. Did u abuse me? Did I abuse you during that argument? NO! You, made your point, and I made mine. What’s even there to hold a grudge about? Guy how old are u sef?

I

TheSuperNerd:
Uhmmm... And your point was since punctured. Let's leave it as that.

So yeah... Lol.... Okay. We won't beat Argentina abi. because a draw is enough sef... Hmmmm... It is true ooo... A draw is indeed enough... But forgerrit! I wanna beat those Argentines. Really wanna break that jinx of never beating a south american team at the WC.

As for Safarigirl, sorry, I don't recall you and her having a recent argument leading to her entrance. So you bringing her in now only shoes that you indeed do take things way too seriously. Lol... Happy weekend Mister.

#ArgentinaIsGoingDown

Hahaha

soetanoreoluwa:
Which shaku shaku? Where everybody is tensed and scared ?

It’s okay my bro. You can keep arguing about who is best till tomorrow. I’ve long made my point.
As regards who take things too seriously the forumites here can judge.

I still stand by my words. We won’t beat Argentina.

Wetin safarigirl carry for mind against me as she enter our argument?

TheSuperNerd:
Then why did you jump in like a diver and comment when I didn't even need any explanation from you? Sebu Egbon and I were having a discussion. Wetin concern you if not that you carry am for mind.. Be deceiving yourself mister. Listen, Mister Joebie, the truth is that you are the one who take things here way too seriously. If not you will easily concede to making a weak point about how we know Africa's best and not throwing the childish jab of me knowing it all. Why are you this bothered by what I know? My boys won... I am excited. I recall you saying we won't make it pass Argentina. Hope you stand by your words.

Nigerian fans. I laugh. Hahahahahahahahaha

Kai why Musa no learn shaku shaku?.

somehow:
Both touches for both goals were out of this world. The first one was made in Russia.

We just need Iwobi as AM, or at least bring him on earlier in the second half.

tbaba1234:
John Obi Mikel was so key today in the deeper role.

That’s a whole different argument.

Yes, Moses played very well. Lovely assist by the way. Musa’s first touch was top notch.

forgiveness:
Actually, Victor Moses was our best player today behind Ahmed Musa.

If we like make we leave our playing sense till 2nd half again.

safarigirl:
Messi and Barcelona fans busy thanking Nigeria for winning Iceland, like say we go dash them win for the final game.

Make 26th come, dem go know say everybody eye dey red for Russia.

Argentina currently sitting pretty at the bottom of the table.

Yes U did

somehow:
I agreed with you that day na. Musa has proven to us why benching him is never ok. He's one of the most lether attackers we have in Nigeria. He could have had an hattrick today if not for the woodwork.
