Mujtahida: And we having foreign born players dates back to the 70s. Ghanaians like also played for the Nigerian national team like Anas Ahmed who chose playing for Nigeria over ruling on his traditional stool, Sani Mohammed, Yakubu Mohammed and others. Check this link: https://ng.opera.news/ng/en/sports/amp/871b2cb7c3a4adc347ce92b1dad297b8 There are also rumours that has it that Rasheed Yekini's dad is actually ghanaian? Alot of Nigerians from Ogbomosho and ilorin traders had earlier settled and even married Ghanaians. Till Ghana had the Nigeria must go first incident, which yekini's mum who is Nigerian brought him back to Nigeria |

Im currently rewatching the highlights of yesterday's game. The commentator said something really baffling that further supports safari girl position on the Nigerian Eagles ofthe 90s as the most solid team ever. Yesterday's game was the first time Nigeria would score two goal at the first half in AFCON since 92 when Yekini scored two first half goals against Kenya. I mean for all the good soccer we hype the 90s team on, they didn't score two goals easily when opponents were dummies in soccer unlike today's football that has weaker teams of the 90s catching up fast with the continental giants |

somehow: What they played without "if" has been shambolic so far for a country rated no 1 in Africa.
Lets work with that. Shambolic might just mean they've not met your expectations. I expect them to qualify from the group, perhaps not with this quality of football they are playing. I never expected them to come winning all their games like 3 nil or so. They were lucky with the penalty against Zimbabwe(of course penalty is part of the game). I think they are yet the click, there is just something missing perhaps we might find that spark in the knockout stage. I know they got some one or two covid issues too, but that's not enough reason not to play some exciting soccer. However, barring Nigeria who has played well in the first game the other nations are somewhat not settled in the tournament. Algeria equally did worse than Senegal. They played a lesser seria leone team. Having defeated ghana in the friendly too. We can only hope that our team keeps its upward trajectory going |

What if they met more purposeful opponents during the group stage? What "if" they raise their game in the group stage if they met such opponent |

andrewbaba44: Malawi leading Zimbabwe by 2 goals to 1
Who could believe this game would have produced 3 goals without a single PK Malawi messed up big time in their first game against Guinea. they played quite entertaining, their end product was just sad as they ended up losing by a lone goal. Their coach knew they were the better team and said his team will work on their finishing in the final third after losing to Guinea. If you watching the second half of their game currently against Zimbabwe which is a regional rival whom they've lost more games to at COSAFA you'd notice that they've upped something about them in this tournament. I hope they are lucky enough to qualify for the knockout round |

jihday: still early days, don’t see it beating Mali 2002 record Plus our coach then, shuaibu Amodu really gave us some boring football. Onigbinde came later to take the team to the world cup trying to play a total opposite kind of football from Amodu but I felt he was too daring that's why the result didn't favour us. The only good thing I liked about onigbinde was the introduction of long term players like Enyeama, Osaze Odemwingie and J.Yobo |

They are not compact at all. It's the group stage, I'm almost believing that they have not settled well. The knock out stage is a different ball game. They can hurt any team even with their wobbly display |

komekn: When you are overcome with emotion and sentiment you become fanatical in some respects it makes you the quintessential fan, one without rational.
As a result well thought out objective appraisal with key identified performance indicators analysed , becomes an insult to your emotively overcome mind.
When something is taken out of context and then misrepresented, who do you blame 
I made a comparison of two strikers who have been top performers consistently over many years at top level. One is Ighalo and the other is Aboubakar, they both play in the same league. However, Ighalo is the top Goal scorer in that league.
But somehow one Aboubakar is idolised, praised with great respect and appreciation across the nation of Cameroon. However, our Odion is disgracefully denigrated and abused by many you included here.
You have continued in this vexatious bad spirited narrative for too long. Like a woman scorned and filled with bitter resentment. He was the highest goal scorer in the AFCON you still have nothing good to say.
Ighalo is on the team list not just at the tournament and the context of my You've virtually said NOTHING here beyond attacking her personality, that makes it further uncomfortable to have any logical ground of reasoning with you. You are rather committing the fallacy of "what about you" There are three persons you've made mention of here, Abubakar, Awoniyi and Igahlo. Not two as you are trying to alter. Awoniyi will perform well in the next game, perhaps a goal to crown up the effort. |

komekn: Quality powerful striker Aboubakar is bossing the Ethiopians, two goals to his name. It looks like Ethiopia are going to be flogged and Aboubakar should get a hat trick.
After having a decent career in Europe he has gone to Saudi Arabia for the$£$££.
He is playing in the same league as Odion "Unbeatable" Ighalo who is the top goal scorer in that league. But some how there are some here high misguided that think he's not good enough for the SE.
That the young pretenders like Awoniyi and Sadiq are better. Will you keep kwayet. You a grown up for crying out loud. Did Nigeria omit Ighalo's name? Abubakar is playing against Ethiopia, what the bejesus is wrong with you old man, if he scores a hat trick so what? How many goals did Oliver Giroud score for France at the last world cup which they won? Zilch! So long as Awoniyi keeps doing the right thing and as long as we keep progressing by the game that's fair enough. |

daveP: No wonder Nike use am as pawn in a deal he was thinking he had the upper hand. Dem use $3.5m to darken his glasses and swiped away $300m under 24hrs. As at the time he became the nff President, Nigerian football was less attractive to sponsorship. It was even a huge risk for Nike when they offered NFF that money at that time. Whatever happened next is business, good business for Nike. There is very much room for renegotiation should Nigeria qualify for the world cup again. |

Philosopher1979: The scandinavian leagues (sweden, norway et are the best kept secrets of Nigerian football. Going forward, the following players are the next big thing in Nigerian football. Time will prove me right
Ishaq Abdulrazaq: The young boy from ifk norkoping is developing into a fine footballer. He can play as a right winger, wing back or as an attacking midfielder. He is a dani alves like player. At only 19 he is doing well for his club and will move to the big leago a big league as early as next summer. He has allways been on the radar of clubs since 217 but i now think he is fullfilling his potentials.
Stephen Odey: He is finally fullfilling his
Least we forget Mikel Obi first played in the Scandinavian league, he went to have a successful career. I think osaze odenwingie as well did play there too |

Uzoho Akpeyi Ezenwa Maduka
I think it might be quite helpful.
But i wont lie, the league Uzoho is in ehn, its ruining his chances. If he can go to Israel and do a few good seasons like Enyeama, it just might restore order. For now, the trust is on Maduka.
I personally would prefer Uzoho. He's impressed me so far. It has nothing to do with the league, enyeama for some reasons was a better goalkeeper the both. |
