The entire ball didn't cross the goal line b4 it was cleared
But why does it take var like forever b4 showing their decisions onscreen

oloriooko:
No not a goal but I wonder why caf cannot provide goal lime tech

TheSuperNerd:
So you saying we may go 4-3-3? I refer to the introduction of Chukwueze for Adams while keeping Lookman. So is that it?

TheSuperNerd:
Ndidi and Onyeka coz of the yellows, I can understand but Ndidi is gonna lead the team out.

Why Adams?

FiveFootNinja:
It still frustrates me that we lost a clear advantage over Algeria in terms of fitness. They played 120 mins. We were supposed to wear them down with a team playing at its absolute peak. Now we'll be going to face Algeria who got to Marrakesh before us, with a squad that missed one full day of training plus might be half-distracted by the match bonus issue. The most frustrating part is that if we crash out, every body will just move on like nothing happened and the NFF will continue along with their business.

DRC should’ve beat Senegal

Now wey I Dey miss Benjamin Fredricks

At the time Samuel Chukwueze got the ball, Raphael Onyedika was not even near the Ugandan box.

He timed his arrival to perfection; called for the ball, and got it.

Onyedika was too good against the cranes👏👏pic.twitter.com/w92CxTvT9f

I was a little boy the last time Nigeria had a midfield with an eye for goals and precise shooting

TheSuperNerd:
Well, not defending Ogunmodede or Fidelis but what if the Onyedika-FDB pair was Chelle's choice?

FDB is a strong lad shaa. I just hope he helps Onyedika in the middle. I want to believe Chelle gave him defensive instructions. Chukwueze will likely play his free role.

TheSuperNerd:
Folks would still use this game to knock Onyedika while still excusing Iwobi's defensive lapses.

Iwobi has Ndidi and Onyeka to cover him. Who is Onyedika paired with today? An attack minded-FDB?? It is well. Let the first 45 play out. That 2 man midfield is somehow.

Subzero0477:
I hope they don't use this match to judge Onyedika

EEGA:
Chelle should rest our first XI.Let the second XI start the game.

5 players from the first XI can still come from the bench, after the hour mark.

Please we should rest Ndidi to avoid fatigue, he is already 29.

We need him fresh and rejuvenated for our R16 clash.

Super Eagles coach, Eric Chelle shares what it means to him coaching Nigeria.

"When I took this Super Eagles job, I entered another level. At every moment, everyday, I feel the pressure.
I try every time to do my best, like the player on the pitch. I am very proud to work for this nation." Chelle said.
