Analysis dey come. Madueke probably didn't play on the left side of those two teams.

StarchAndBanga:
Same person spreading the gospel about traditional strikers and undermining the importance of support cast, even berating PSG's first UCL win (cos they didn't make use of a traditional 9) and daring them to do it again if they don't sign Gbakyores has finally seen the light and using a team without a traditional 9 as an example of a POWERFUL ATTACK, praise the Lord

Airmark ur rubbish takes on strikers have been forgiven, go and drop rubbish takes no more

MorataFC:
If someone call am black coach now, I go dey defend am. You get your best player available, yet you dey bench am because of the next match? Abi, wetin be the excuse for that kind decision?

odizeey:
If your life fit useless like Ronaldo own, your wife dey worship the ground you step on daily.

Ballzproblemm:
Feels like a dream, Chelsea actually listening to coach .

Sportsweb:
I like that Bracola, he ticks pace, dribbling, movement department but I can't stand his finishing ,

Emaprince:
He chose PDG to compete with vkwara and bacola? Lol

If bacola improves in his decision making, He will even bench both...cos he is still very young and has an explosive speed.

Trevor012:
Messi should be grateful he doesn't have to play with a useless player like Fernandes.

A40:
Looking at these fixtures, Senegal, Egypt are the only African teams I'm somewhat confident can qualify

I hope I'm wrong sha

AirBere:

Kimbeast, he said Demebele doesn't perform for France and that France will be better without him lol. I tell am say them no dey bench balodor winner. Today e don show say him be world best.

I tell am the emboldened too sef lol.

AirBere:
I'm surprised that you consider him generational. If he doesn't score or have good touches against France you'll have people here calling him a division two player.

Meanwhile, what do you think of Olise?

popizaino:
Out of everything he said,this is the only thing you could pick out?

MorataFC:
Yes, this is another angle to the discussion.

At the USA 1994 World Cup, Nigeria was in the same group as Argentina, Bulgaria, and Greece. Argentina won their first two matches and accumulated 6 points, yet they still crashed out, as those 6 points were not enough to secure qualification for the second round.

So, in today's game, 3 points can be enough to secure qualification from the group stage, whereas years ago, even 6 points could see you eliminated. Is 3 greater than 6?
So, today game is soft compared to then.

Now imagine someone 30 years from now mocking that Argentina team, led by Maradona, for failing to get out of the group stage while praising a team that scraped through with only 3 points now. On paper, the latter "achieved more" because they advanced. But anyone who understands the context should know that football should not be judged by statistics alone.

PDPGuy:
IKR. He is my type of winger, dribbling with purpose and end-product

A40:
All over social media cos of two draws by Cape Verde we no hear word since.

AFCON is the toughest qualifiers. AFCON is the toughest tournament yenyenyen.

It's been so nauseating to see the sheer amount of premature ejaculation after Matchday 1.

Mind you other World Cups have had actual serious upsets so I don't see any special accomplishments from any AFCON team in this tourney so far

popizaino:
And you also lost for underratting a 37years old Messi because he plays in MLS while backing Broja, Neto and Jackson to lead Chelsea even if they couldn't score against European and African heavy weights like Norway and Congo in 2026.

popizaino:
Has time not exposed you enough to apologise rather than trying to defend the indefensible?

If he's washed up according to you in 2024 how come he is having a stellar World cup performance in 2026?

As if players from the EPL are not playing in the world cup to judge from.

You can't parade bums like Neto and oppose the idea of Messi. Lai lai
