Your Phone number will reveal your
actual Age, I do not know who
discovered this. It's accurate & scary. It will take about 15
seconds,read and do
it at the same time so that you will not
lose the fun.
1- Take a look at your last digit of your
cell phone number,
2- Use this figure and multiply by 2, 3- Then add 5,
4- And then multiply by 50,
5- And then add the number 1764,
6- The last step; with this number,
subtract your birth year.
Now you see a three-digits number. The first digit is the last
digit of your
phone number, the last two digits are
your actual age!

why?

I bet you your opinions will be forwarded 2 the government

if you are Mr President what will you do concerning this matter

let's help Nigeria find the chibok girls with our strategies

tuffgongjo: .Lavezzi not Higuain

k tanks

chinex276: Mikel can't pass accurately.
He can't score.
He can't take a shot.
He cant control d ball.
He cant run fast.
He's jus dere as a figure-head.
He should beta learn how 2 BITE so dat we can know he played a game.

Mikel just dae field so that we go complete 11 players

lol make una post d one way higuain pour am water 4 Nigeria Argentina match

leppyj: Nothing special abt wat VG did. Its not as if krul is a master penalty saver,he didn't save any of d 5 penalties his team conceded in d EPL last season. To me NED were lucky.

do you know DAT the keeper followed all the ball?

Lordabas: Who do you consider the best Nigerian footballer ever?

To me, the crown fits nobody except Kanu Nwankwo. He undoubtedly has been the best player ever to come out of Nigerian soil.

2 me its Mikel
Na joke o

make una no lie...which Nigerian cry because of DAT onazi injury?; D

bin gbagbo: Jerome Boateng for germany is Ghanaian

Memphis DEpay for Holland is Ghanaian

Ghana is not out after all

Ghana's Marcel Dessaily actually won the world cup in 1998 with France

a 'small' nation like Ghana has also contributed players for top european teams like italy(ballotelli) and england (Dani welbeck)

Ghana...indeed the home of soccer

you no get work no lie?

make NFF beta accept Im conditions

racism at the highest level

racism
fifa-racist

makkitush: which match jotey because i will remember ur name and i"ll be waiting.

Holland Costa Rica...Holland go win

I tell una say Argentina go beat dis useless team

Matthew briggs: I may not be a sports fanatic, or follow closely the exploits of the likes of messi and rolnaldo or understand the schematics of the UEFA champions league or FIFA world cup. But one thing I know is ... I am big fan of the super eagles. I try my best not miss their matches. Her encounter with France was of no exception... I sat glued to a Tv set for more that 90 minutes hoping and praying we would win that game. But alas we were beating 2-0 ... 2 freaking zero... till today those goals keep replaying in my head. *arrggghhh*. I had two option, to either feel bad for our failure or to see this as one of my numerous learning opportunities and instead focus on deriving insight and inspiration from this depressing encounter. Alas I chose the latter. Below are really key lessons I relearned from that encounter .

In the first half we played strong, we shook their defense, we had more ball possession, nearly 80% of people I communicated with during the early phase of the match were positive we would win... but alas with several minute into the second half and few minutes to go, our hopes of moving to the quarter finals were dashed with 2 goals. What surprised me was not the two goals we conceded but France's strategy... It occurred to me that they had been conserving their energy for the latter part of the match, they also tricked us to underestimate them by not coming on strong. At the same time building a very strong defense, so even though we had more ball possession we couldn't score. Now with few minutes to go they started playing with more energy and vigor, their performance and speed increased.

To my surprise France started playing world class football, there passes became more sharper, at this juncture our players were already tired plus they were taken unawares by the spike in France performance level given that the French had physiologically made them to underestimate them. I believe France adopted this strategy after watching our march with Argentina paying more attention to how fast we equalized. They knew that they stood a higher chance to score a goal at the tail end of the march leaving the super eagles with no time to equalize after having noticed that we always wear out during the ending period of a match.

The strategy was simple Take them by surprise and never give them room to recover. On understanding this I smiled and gave a standing ovation for France.

The point is
To win you need a strategy not just any strategy a brilliant strategy : We all want to win in life, Win that juicy promotion, Win that scholarship opportunity, Win the heart of the love of our life. we all want to succeed in life ... but have you sat down to build a winning strategy. How you intend to get from where you are to where you want to be, have your understudied your opponents, the risks and challenges you would face on the way and have you built a contingency plan, or do you just live life by chance, moving towards any direction the wind of life pushes you to.

You want to excel, who do you need to know, what role are they going to play in your life at what time, what knowledge and insight do you require to get there, what steps are you making to reach for stars. What strategy are you building to outsmart your stumbling blocks.

As you build your strategy Stick this into your head, "Brain will always win over might" Just like France beat us using their brain over our might. So it is in life. Design a brilliant strategy that is focused on working smarter instead of harder... As a popular saying goes..." If na by muscle bricklayer for become billionaire " ... Never forget that Smart people never stay poor.

The most important battles are fought in the mind: When France gave us the first goal. I could feel how demoralized our players were, they lost their cool and their performance dwindled... It was evident the French didn't just score they damaged their psyche. It was evident our players lost hope... they didn't believe they could equalize. This was evident in the way Osaze carelessly left the ball to go offside which eventually lead to the second goal.

The point is there will be moments in life where your faith will be tested, Where you will be put through fire & brimstone. Where the light at the end of the tunnel instead of getting brighter will shut right in your face. You'll feel like there is no need to hope again. In moments like this, It is very crucial you never say never, hope again, never stop believing in miracles, never give up. Because the moment you stop believing, in that same moment you fail before even failing.

If possible reach for greatness let your set back inspire you and drive you. Let it make you better. The good thing with this approach is that even if you eventually fail ... You would've have failed with class. Something we did during our encounter with Argentina... We lost by one goal but we still applauded them because they fought to the end... the played good football throughout.

Finally it not about how you start but how you end. The end RESULTS is all that matter in life no one freaking cares about how hard you've toiled, how many attempts or shot you made to achieve success, How you started brilliantly all they care about is results, end results.

It is evident that 70% of the time we played good football, we had more possession ... we dribbled we were on point but at the end we lost and we lost woefully, we made terrible mistakes. That is all we remember.. the mistakes, Yobo's own goal, Mikels poor performance, Osaze's misjudgement, Enyema's poor judgment that lead to the goals.

The world celebrate heroes, they celebrate winners, They never give f*uk about failures... do whatever it takes that is just and within the confines of your conscience ... to freaking succeed.
In all be smart and NEVER SAY NEVER.
