TheSuperNerd: The Club didnt want to risk Aina at the Afcon. They still feel miffed Aina was not available through out the reign of Postecoglou before they even fired him. We wanted him at the Afcon but Nottingham felt otherwise and perhaps even convinced Aina who in turn reasoned it out with the NFF.
My theory is the NFF didnt want to make a drama of the whole thing seeing the club has a point on missing Aina for a long period due to injury picked up vs SA on that Potato farm. i am so sure if he is in this Afcon , he will have either a goal and some reasonable numbers of assist . Another SE players that will always give his all . we have just very few of them in this current SE .... |

Mr. Lulu 🤭🇳🇬 this is good news for Mr Lulu , his absence wasnt felt much ... but in the qualifier we missed him , that attacking bite would have made the difference against DR Congo |

Let’s pay close attention to Mozambique — they have a solid team. No one has really blown them away in this AFCON, and they’ve conceded only five goals in total.
They lost 2–1 and 1–0, but they also beat Gabon 3–2. The Super Eagles must not underrate them — Mozambique can definitely spring surprises.
If we win our next game, we could be heading into a chance for revenge in the following rounds. The Super Eagles should keep things simple and take it one game at a time. |

All-time AFCON Top Scorers: 🇪🇬 Egypt: 178 🇨🇮 Côte d'Ivoire: 154 🇳🇬 Nigeria: 154 the goals would have been more if SE played that match as if their life depended on it, a team that received a red card should receive serious beating |

minfelix: it will really take a miracle, i feel the 31 years record will be broken this year…The last non North African country to win afcon on the North African soil is Nigeria since the Tunisia 1994 Afcon
Tunisia 1994 =Nigeria Tunisia 2004 = Tunisia Egypt 2006 = Egypt Egypt 2019 = Algeria Morocco 2025 = ? This Morocco team looks ordinary to me jare, if Mali can play them that way..they are not too good jare… what iif Tunisia didnt qualify out of our group ....? i just want one major upset  |

Spainever: I watched the highlight of the Nigerian vs Tunisia match. Bright Osayi did very well . Why are Nigerians condemning him ? you cant watch highlight and come to his defence like this ... he fiddled out after 60-70mins .... i think Chelle should learn how to manage this team , its been a general problem since the time of Rohr .... mental alertness of the backline drops after 70minutes . if we must win the AFCON , the team should wake up including Nwabali , |

Two of our goals came from headers. The Super Eagles are becoming a real aerial threat to any team, and our set pieces are getting dangerous too. |

ThunderFireAgba: Honestly, Chelle and the Team did a good job today. Imagine beating a high ranking team comfortable out-played them? If not for the carelessness and stvpidity of a guy who calls himself goalkeeper that mounted pressure on his team mates, the game would have ended 3-0. NFF, Chelle, I don tell una. the Tunisian undoing today was coming to play defensive style and trying to hit us on counter ,Onyeka ,spoilt the plan kudus to Chelle , for neutralising the plans , a nice game so far ...unfortuantely the scoreline didnt translate what the Tunisians went through |

FiveFootNinja: Senegal defense has always been their weak point coming into this AFCON, just not as bad as Nigeria.
And DR Congo is fast becoming a problem in African football. I'd rate them above South Africa and Mali right now at least based on current form. with the big names they have there ... i am enjoying the way DR Congo is playing . they match Senegal pound for pound . but i still believe that Senegal can comeback or win this match |

Optimistic of a good result.
Expect a tactically disciplined and wily Tunisian team but our individual superiority should help us carry the day God willing.

I understand the building was constructed with brick, and brick is known for being highly fire-resistant. Before any decision is made to demolish it, the structure should be evaluated by qualified structural engineers to determine its true integrity after the fire. This isn’t like many modern buildings — it was built over 50 years ago by experienced professionals — so a proper structural assessment is essential before deciding its fate.
may the people that lost their means of livelihood recover from this great loss ... its sad ! |

minfelix: how many are the enough games…since he took over, the only game he was totally dominated was the DRC, nothing like haven’t you seen enough games…. Nigeria vs Rwa (H/A) the coach was brilliant Nigeria vs SA (Away) even without Osimhen and Aina we wrestle SA on their home ground..we played them correct Nigeria vs Lesotho, we played them handsdown, just Nwabali and Ajayi almost cost us the game Nigeria Vs Benin Chelle was brilliant Nigeria vs Gabon chelle was brilliant Nigeria vs Tanzania He was also brilliant oga calm down, we played well yesterday all these teams you mentioned are lowly rated team except SA and DRC . Truly SE has fallen . even the average team like DRC and SA are now the standard . lets us stop celebrating mediocrity ... we played badly yesterday . and i can telly you that if not for the school boy errors by the Tanzania forward , it would have been 2-3 or 2-4 in favour of Tanzania . if SE doesnt rase the standard of their game .Tunisia will beat them silly |
