Lookman to miss next match

i really dont known why Chelle dey bench chukwueze…

how is that offside na ref

azpekuliar:
Because of Eritrea’s withdrawal?

yea

This empty stadium and atmosphere is giving me the vibe of Sao tome 10-0😂

one of these guys will miss the Benin game🥺…see as yellow card full starting 11

ouzo1:
Osimhen food don show.... Baba like to play against all dis handicap teams no be small,I dey expect brace from King of small teams.

Last time Osimhen faced Lesotho
Lesotho 2-4 Nigeria (Osimhen 2goals) in 2021

azpekuliar:
Have you looked at the standings for all second placed teams? The team placed fourth already has 18 points. Add the 6 points we hope to get from our remaining matches, you will have 17 points. There is no road to the WC by finishing second in our group. First or we go no where.

bro fifa has updated the standing, its not what it used to be again

elyte89:
Una go just c Lesotho 🇱🇸 0 - Nigeria 🇳🇬 1🤣🤣🤣

🤣🤣🤣cruise world cup qualifiers + yeye🤣

azpekuliar:
It is easier to finish first in our group than to qualify by being amongs the best four 2nd placed teams in the qualifiers and eventual playoffs.

finishing first depends on SA losing to Zim or losing to Rwanda…or them drawing both matches…
but entering the play off depends on super eagles winining both matches very very well

azpekuliar:
We have no hope of qualifying by finishing second. We have to finish first in our group.

but it will surely give us breathing space small na🤣…if we enter play off we go and regroup na…this pressure of finish top get as e be…i feel our destiny is 70% in our hands to finish in the play off than as table toppers

owbabs:
Yeah it's not over until it is over. Probabilities are pretty low at this point.

-South Africa dropping 3pts

2nd place playoff hopes:

-Bukina Faso drawing or losing to Ethiopia
-Nigeria scoring lots of goals in the next two games [to better Burkina Faso's GD]
-Madagascar drawing or losing to Mali

as for me i don remove that SA own, na from the bolded i start to read🤣🤣🤣

Super eagles plsssss naaa give us heavy win against Lesotho 😭😭🙌🏻🔥…the chance is here to sneak into that top 4ahead of burkina faso ooooo😭

owbabs:
DRC just beat Togo. So it is over at this point

Unless Nigeria can beat Lesotho 5-0 and beat Benin 3-0, it is done.

its not overrrr naaaaa
ive already predicted
Cameroon
Gabon
DRC
Burkina faso/Nigeria/Madagascar

make una comot eyes for DRC and Gabon matches…their place in the top 4 is secured

CapitalCee:
We don’t need to tie we need to go above them on GD. We need to beat Lesotho 3 zero to go above them. Because they scored more on GF. We also need to outscore them in our match against Benin Republic compared to what they might get against Ethiopia at home. The good thing is they play on Sunday we play on Monday we will know the number of goals we need at that time.

When Benin come to Nigeria, no Brotherhood oo, we need to apply every trick in the books to score plenty goals against them, 5-0 sef if possible

spot on🔥🔥 bro like this the 4th place is between Nigeria and Burkina Faso if we can just win Lesotho very heavily today

Elock1:
At this point ....i'm hoping we can somehow qualify as the group toppers, going through the playoffs looks more difficult

From making it into the best 4 runners up to the play off itself

Omo

Shey Zimbabwe go fit beat SA🤣…cos me don dey comot eyes for that match oo

solonnachi:
God abeg!!!
We can take this opportunity by walloping Lesotho to increase our goal tally and finish it up in Uyo against Benin Rep.
Lets also pray against yellow cards ooo. Some of our guys have one yellow card from previous matches.

exactly ooo…we need to win Lesotho with more than 2goals and push Burkina away from that top 4

TheSuperNerd:
The Malians wont lose at home to Madagascar.

we have Madagascar and Burkina Faso fight of we finish on 15pts

CapitalCee:
That Burkinafaso win yesterday was a big blow for us. Their next match is at home to Ethiopia.
The Dr Congo is Currently winning 1-0 against Togo if they win, we are in big trouble, there next match is at home to Sudan.

There is a Glimmer of hope for Gabon as they are losing now 3-2 to Gambia. Their next match is at home to Burundi.

Honestly to sneak in at this point, we need to score a lot of goals like 4 or 5 today and score Benin like 3 goals too.

So the key matches are:

Gabon vs Burundi
Burkinafaso vs Ethiopia
Dr Congo vs Sudan.


Even with this lifeline we are still in a dicey situation, something that looked very good few weeks ago, honestly results didn’t go our way this round.

Burkina faso is on +4goals, Nigeria(assuming we are on second) we will be having +2 goals if we get into the play off table…we need to win lesotho with 2goals and tie on points and goals with Burkina faso

yinkeys:
Burkinabés ?

from the update deductions, they need to beat Ethiopia at home with more GD to stand a chance
Then Madagascar need to beat Mali

wow so FIFA has already made those deductions sef, im just seeing it now…teams on their main group have their points remaining the same but on the playoff table all necessary deductions has been made😀
so this means Burkina faso can finish on 15pts and Madagascar has to draw or lose to mali and Nigeria has to finish on 15points🙆🏼🙆🏼…omo

TheSuperNerd:
WCQs monitor.

Togo 0-1 DRC 21mins played.

me i know DRC,Gabon,Cameroon are already assured of playoffs even after deduction…who will sneak in as the 4th will b the question now

NIGHTMARE0O7:
The play off will be good preparation for them nau while others play friends for preparations we use play off..so its very good

yeaa true

MetalJigsaw:
Na prank o.. Make I no go give person HBP🤣

Una sha wan go world cup😂😂.

kai chisooooos🤣🤣😂😂

Toylove:
Chelle 5%
Players 6%
Ekong our captain against Zimbabwe and South Africa 4%

u still need to distribute that 4% to some of those strikers and midfielders wey dey muss open net up and down from match day 1 till now oo

MetalJigsaw:
3 players doubtful for today's match: Lookman , Bassey, Osimhen

😳😳🙆🏼wetin happen oo

9JAMac10:
Reading the posts of people on here. Guys we moving too fast for our shadows. Let’s focus on a game at a time before making these permutations and possibilities. Already looking ahead to the playoffs even before the game even starts . That Nigerian ignorant arrogance . What if they don’t even beat Lesotho today wetin una go do ??

it was this same moving ahead of ourselves that made us fish out SA ineligible player…omo at this point na make we dey catch cruise oo, if we qualify fine if we no qualify everyone go rest ooo🤣…if the players are here reading some of this slight hope remaining, it might propel there performance to give their all

my own Blame percentage if we do not qualify for the world cup is 😀
NFF 50%
Finidi 20%
Peseiro 15%
Eric Chelle 10%
Players 5%

yinkeys:
What was the Unity cup & Russia games for ?
He shouldn’t have bothered winning if you ask me, but fine tuning properly
They called Ahmed Musa to waste time lol
When they’d have used it as proper trial for young & hungry players ready to take over. Like Benjamin Franklin
NFF na jokers I swear
I think he should go if he doesn’t get 6 points this week

All this was all on NFF oo🤦🏼🤦🏼…changing coaches like wrapper

yinkeys:
Bolivia, Qatar & Iraq won’t be easy sha

it will be paired on pots and ranking….
Top teams will faced bottom rank teams and their will be two final teams facing off in the final…the intercontinental play off will produce a winner form Either Africa,Asia or South america

yinkeys:
They are banking on Osimhen & a few players grit
He should run like a mad man to force errors which will lead to a goal lol
We are in trouble tbh
Osimhen that’s partially injured
I saw straps all over his legs in a new video
We can no longer win games because of names
Teams like SA, Benin, Saudi lol no longer really fear Nigeria if they do their homework properly
I really thought Chelle would’ve finetuned the squad into a scoring machine by now
I thought we’d be putting small teams away without conceding
I won’t be surprised if we struggle against Tanzania in December

Make una calm down dey give lenient and understandable pat on the back to Eric Chelle ….ahaaan na wa oo, a coach that took over in February abi na March….SA coach has been there since 2023 ooo…i still wanna ask which coach can come in and automatically save Nigeria…first game was against Rwanda he delivered, his second game was against a stubborn Zim side we were almost beating if not for Ekong and his minions at the defense….
The best coach in the world will still have given us those result we saw in the last 4 world cup qualifiers led by Chelle…

yinkeys:
In the intercontinental playoff
Which teams could African delegate face
Make we no go face strong team like Italy, Holland, Sweden, Chile, Colombia, Australia o

Oh Bolivia & New Caledonia are already in the play off waiting for their opponents(4 more slots) - 1 Asia, 2 from North America and Carribean, 1 Africa,
That play off na very long journey
Let’s pray for Rwanda to help us mend South Africa

From Concacaf (Elsavador and Curacao have qualified)
From Conmebol (Bolivia qualified)
From Asia (any one of Qatar,Iraq,Indonesia or UAE)
From OFC(New caledonia qualified)
No slot for UEFA in play off

so the winner of African play off will face those team
