So you mean them go dey use nest of champions for set, Salah go play for afternoon, hakimi for night 😂

😂😂

You just finish work.... Sad but true... But dem say we host All African games for 2003 and u17 for 2009... shame.

all those period sef african countries are still yet to open eye to the use of digital advert display board…all of us were still using kpako that time…now dem don leave us behind….i so hate that wooden nonsense i see on screen whenever we play in uyo or abuja…giving us a very yeye local steeze

Mujtahida:
There's no scoreline I hate more than 1-0. Once you score the other team, the momentum will swing and they will begin to come at you like a swarm of bees until they score you and even after scoring, some will ride that momentum till they win you.

Immediately after SA scored, Angola said Gbewa. They were relentless. SA couldn't breathe until Angola scored.

The same thing happened to us against Congo.

I hate 1-0. It puts me on edge.

this happens when two rivals or two big football country plays eachother..everyone will surely come out and show power…na minnow dey defend if them don knack dem 1-0…na 9ja dey eff up sometimes beating minnows 1-0 and giving them room to grow back into the game

Starboytwo:
I honestly dont know how to reply you boss, no need self, me and you already know the truth. unless we wan dey lie....

Also, there is no ever a time when millions of people are not suffering in Nigeria, no time ever, so that excuse wont fly....

As of right now, as a footballing nation, i mean this very minute, the only stadium we can present is Akpabio's stadium. South Africa will bring nothing less than 8. Bros, forget matter.

CAF can currently discontinue the afcon in morocco and tell SA to continue with it…they wont even need to touch any stadium 🤣🤣 sharp sharp tournament don continue…..but make CAF just suddenly say Nigeria oya oo come and continue the afcon, we have banned morocco…confusion go enter NFF glass house people…..
“CAF, how far shey we fit use Uyo host everything finish, or una fit wait make we call aboki to quickly clear abuja stadium grass

Amedino99:
adding the FIFA arab cup doesn’t make sense for comparison seeing as we literally cant participate in that tournament.

even if it will not hold water using this tournament to compare, it will be recorded that they conquered a fifa tournament…thats why i said it further make them looking like stamping their authority in all competitions

Bossoflife25:
You are failing not "we" abeg! Peeps like you just know how to wail! We didn't qualify for under 17 but we did for under 20. The last time I check we won World under 17 twice in the last decade. So what are you mourning about? [b]If your life is in tat...ters others aren't, my dear. We have won silver and bronze in the last three AFCONs. [/b]I don't even see the Egyptians or Cameroonians mourn like you peeps. Go sit down somewhere!

so the people wey dey always block and delete people post did not see this one abi…oga u get luck say dem delete and restrict me from commenting…let me just respect the community guidelines….else na me you for exchange words for here…but make i chill sha….just continue to insult people as you like here o…i no blame u…na the mod i go blame
ha….la…ye…ba….je🙌🏻😅

TheSuperNerd:
They won 2 FIFA organized competitions. Really? You are seriously counting the FIFA Arab Cup which is literally a tournament made by FIFA to pander to the Arab world for their money and continued partnership? Lol

Pls. Only the U20 WC counts.

And yes, we have struggled and encountered dark times. We missed the Afcon in 2012 before we won it in 2013. Didnt we?
We missed the 2015 and 2017 editions before we came back strong in 2019 reaching another semis and bagged another afcon medal.
2021... another bad run. But in 2023 held in 2024, we reached the final. Another Afcon medal bagged.

In the last 3 Afcons alone, for all the bad times we faced, Nigeria has bagged 2 medals. Morocco bagged Zero.

See, it would be hard to erase years of pedigree built up across all categories. Very difficult. Almost impossible even despite the downtimes because eventually Nigeria always seem to find a way back into reckoning.

If you really paid attention to the history you claim to acknowledge (yet want to knock as irrelevant because of a sour period), then you would not see past the point already made.

omo wether the tournament na within moroccan natives so far its tagged FIFA organized am,they won it(further pushing them to the top as a giant country)….let thwm sha find a way back thats my own….all this ekuke teams will start questioning our giant status if we start missing back to back u17wc, back to back senior world cup, back to back olympic

chrisooblog:
My 5 Hot Takes for Nigeria at the 2025 AFCON:

1. Osimhen will break Yekini's all time goal scoring record at some point during the tournament. Will also win Golden Boot.

2. Nigeria will get to a second consecutive final. Don't know if we will win sha.

3. Fisayo and Ebenezer to be break out stars.

4. Chukwueze to finally have a string of signature performances for the Super Eagles at a tournament.

5. Expect everyone to pitch in but MVP for the team at the end of the competition will be between Osimhen & Chukwueze

omo i pray we win…make we even equal that grand pa record of Ghana afcon trophies

Kilishihunter:
That one just argues with mostly throwing insults how he likes. The rest of the super eagles fans here that feel we can host afcon as of now that were arguing without insults and emotions must be strange na. I'm glad most avoided him to avoid migraine before tomorrow's game.

his regular quotes is
“its a waste of time arguing with you”🤣🤣 so why you come dey quote the person na
na so one came one time with “Yes men” “yes men”🤣🤣

another mumu will just enter here after any bad super eagles game and scream
“aveeeerrrraaaaageeeee”

omo 🤣🤣🤣🤣

TheSuperNerd:
Nigeria of old also reached the Afcon final last year.

Nigeria of old also won the Wafcon this year.

Nigeria of old also won 2 of the last 3 APOTYs.

You make it sound like everything we have achieved so far were done in 1800.

In the end, you can see with evidence that Morocco is still worlds away from catching up to Cameroun/Egypt not to mention Nigeria.

Egypt dominated Africa consistently between 2006 and 2010, winning 3 Afcons back to back to back. Their clubs were also winning the CAF CLs in that time period, winning twice in 2006 and 2008. As grand as their football legacy is, they still fall below Nigeria and Cameroun on the overall.

Morocco is not even in Egypt's class yet. Egypt is still North Africa's biggest football nation.

I am Team Morocco as always. Always have been for years now but I am also a student of history and facts. Not just recency bias.

bros the back to back consistency that gave us the tag is no longer there….excluding the female football which is still making us solidly a giant…other things now BECOMING wash 🧼 …..you are talking as if somebody is saying we dont have history…me im telling you that your history would start becoming irrelevant if the recent is not maintaining fighting to keep that pride…yeah we go to the last afcon final but the previous we exited in round 16, then before the previous it was bronze medal, before the bronze medal we disappeared from the continental scenes for 2editions, na there our ekukeness started….my own is as we are blowing hot and cold, people like morocco dey break record oo…this year alone they won 2FIFA organized competition and also participated at the club world cup….
we just need to sit up shaaa

Truidstarr:
Dem say Morocco get the facilities and infrastructure.....where the fans? See how stadium for Mali vs Zambia empty. If na Nigeria host...empty seat go hard to see.

na that area Nigeria use solidly crase pass them…we turn up for everything football in this country

Odunayaw:
Nothing concern me with giant or whatever.
Make nobody add outright lies and exaggerations in the name of "short endurance Patriot"

once you see the lie, abeg dey quickly bolden am, make we tear am open wether na LIE or na TRUTH

in all i remain 100000000% blooded🩸SUPER EAGLES….remove super eagles i dont think there is anything making me a Nigerian oo🤣🤣….This country is dancing kurukere on a time bomb, only God will deliver it

NasirIbnLaAhad:
Simple accountability by admitting their shortcomings is a serious problem for this lot. There's nothing to improve on. Everything is fine according to them.

im telling you🤣🤣….once you sound small negativity, those ones that was born in 1966 will come and attack and start shouting GenZ…im even shocked that one that call himself Bossoflife whatever talking down on Queenjazz…making her look like she is a kid….no b d same queenjazz dey lament say she would be 40 by 2030 WC? abi who again, cos i know a female moniker made that painful statement immediately we lost that penalty to DRC….

If we Nigeria can’t bounce back to her glory days, make nobody attack me if i patriotically as a Nigerian start to harmlessly call Morocco a giant oo🤣🤣.

See the way those f**lish vuvuzela south africa just start to dey close up the winning ratio gap we had over them omo🤣🤣🤣….
MAKE UNA TELL CHELLE and this SUPER EAGLES
-SA MUST NOT BEAT THE GIANT OF AFRICA AT AFCON OOO!!
-WE MUST AT WORST EXIT THE COMPETITION AT ROUND 16 OOOOO

ELSE WE NO B GIANT ANYTHING AGAIN OOO

we all have different endurance and temperament to this patriotic thing….some will get to a point and mention the ills we are facing even while being patriotic while some will want to be adamantly patriotic till kpai do them and Nigeria part….so stop freaking out when when the short enduring patriots voice out the obvious…make una calm down
Nobody is wrong…everyone here is right
-Yes we are Giant of Africa!✅
-Yes we are now doing like mumu of Africa!✅

both facts are currently mixing up like aporo epa ijebu

Bossoflife25:
Not winning Olympic medals are some of the ills of the country? What is stopping you from winning one? How many Olympic medal have we won self?
Lack of information is a disease!
In fact, there was no time in our sporting history we have track and field talent as we do now!
We have the current World Record holder in women hurdles but peeps like you won't amplify that, na to cry today, cry tomorrow...
There was no time in our history we have multiple NCAA champions in several events as now!
You think if you are not doing so well, others aren't too. Sit up, guy!

you b nyash ooo🤣🤣 if you think we should be amplifying the nonsense decay our sport is going through and forming mumu patriotism while others dey overtake us…..oga let me tell u, im a very strong sport loving Nigerian, you see this time, i never see wetin you wan tell me….you cant stop me from pointing out the decay we are currently facing thats slowly snatching and denting our “Giant tag” stop f**ling yourself thinking you are patriotic by not spotting the sh!! happening in our soccer/sport sector…..

OGA WE ARE FALLING AND FAILING CURRENTLY….read it and have peace with yourself

i made an article that encompassed Nigeria’s sporting ailments, boom you started feeling insecured as if na you b NFF president younger brother wife’s cousin….calling everyone “olodo” for stating the fact….
we can’t qualify to U17 WC again!!

Now look at this and tell me how they are even close.

NB: I didnt even have to label which is which. You can tell who is who just by reading the achievements.

kudos to Nigeria of old, but currently i prefer to be a fan thats enjoying a run of form thats looking like its not ending soon….back then most moroccans envy and would wanna enjoy what Nigerians are enjoying, but currently most Nigerians envy and would wanna enjoy what morocco is enjoying….we have simply put down legacy fine and good, there was once a Pele, now there is no more Pele.

Morocco may not be close to equaling us but they are pretty on the verge of pursuing an catching our legacy…
We should not be slacking abeg, the giant tag is rottening away….we first Ghana qualified for the world cup 3 times back to back(94,98,2002)…now Ghana don dey catch us on same number of appearance with their first qualification in 2006(sorry for steering thw ship towards Ghana, but na still same giantism vanishing syndrome plaguing us)….Almost all our football noise making rivals don single handedly host Afcon from the beginning of Y2K oo
SA 2013(though not our rival, but a match up with them always deafen the whole of africa)
Gha 2008
Egypt 2006
Cam 2017
CIV 2024

we go dey here now Algeria andSenegal go host😃, while we are still waiting for NFF to remove kpako advert board…..ahhhh omo our NFF so shameful ajeh😂😂🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

Bossoflife25:
Omo! Olodos full here oo!

in your mumunness, u think say you wise….oga abeg gerrarahia biko…wetin dey do diswan wey wan dey form analyst 🤣🤣…..Analyst kowope

Bossoflife25:
Debating with someone who thought we got the "Giant of Africa" tag cos of football is a waste of time!
When we were winning al those you listed where was Morocco?

oga if you think debating with me is a waste of time, abeg no dey quote me again na….small thing you bone don rise….
go back to my post and also see that i mentioned those olympic medals we do rack up those days are gradually vanishing that we no longer gather medals again…..
if debating with me is a waste of time, oga pack oneside and look for those that worth your time….una no dey like make dem dey point out some ills of this country……we are F’ing sport wise at the moment…na past record still dey keep us going

TheSuperNerd:
It will take years upon years for Morocco to catch up with what Nigeria has achieved in football across all categories. Morocco has not even caught up with Egypt or Cameroun's pedigree ranks.

In football, it is not mouth. Nigeria are truly Africa's Giant.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w8OAGwC2Eak?si=00difToGq6lr-T6M

i agree with you small oo, but make Nigeria reach world cup semifinal first and also host senior world….the only record that still make us giant is the 10wafcon trophy and 5U17 wc trophy…aside that morocco don dey catch us oo🤣

i like as most people dey always come out to defend this country 😂😂…its good sha, thats d spirit of patriotism for you…..but make we talk true…currently if we check things that makes us got that tag “giant of africa”, omo those things are slowly vanishing

- last hosting something major (u17 world cup 2009) almost 20yrs ago now
-presenting world class stadium ❌(only Uyo 30k capacity and maybe Abuja 60k capacity can compete with africa’s top stadia
- back to back winning or representing and doing well in male age grade soccer(u17 last won in 2015 10yrs ago, u20 best performance was in Holland 2005 20yrs ago, U23 olympic last best performance was 2016 rio 11yrs ago we dont even use to qualify to that one again sef
- Last CAFCL club victory, Enyimba 2005 20yrs ago
-Last senior men best world cup performance was 2014 11yrs ago, last world cup appearance 2018 7yrs ago


Na only female football still dey give us small bragging right
while Osimhen and Lookman managed to still put us on the map of african giant by winning back to back AFPOTY, and then super eagles reaching afcon final last edition still making us have small hope to call ourselves giant……infact delving into other sports where we normally use to rack up gold medal at the olympics, we no get hope again for that area…other african nation are slowly filling up these spaces especially Morocco, those guys in the nearest future will start to claim giant of africa oo🤣🤣
- hosted wafcon back to back to back
- got to wafcon final back to back to back, if they mistakenly lift am wahala don dey
-recently won the AFPOTY
-got to world cup semifinal
-recently won age grade competition (u17wc)
-hosting tournament like water from afcon to wafcon to u17 wafcon and will b hosting the FIFA world cup in 2030

issokaaay make we dey watch sha

Meliforme:
Our ultra defensive approach was due to the absence of a proven defensive midfielder and the incidence of a defense personnel that can be error prone. Bassey is a ball playing defender, he is a very good at passing, dribbling and ipso facto can be tempted to move further up the pitch to make things happen (this is good as long as he is quick to make recovery runs). Ekong is a solid defender, but his loss of concentration at times is well documented. This is where you need a defensive midfielder who can study the proceedings and provide the needed cover.

As things stand, no player can rival Ndidi in the DM role. Ndidi made headlines in the Belgian league and EPL. Hamzat Ojediran and Tochukwu Nnadi looks promising in the role, but they are yet to rival Ndidi in a convincing way.

The absence of Wilfred Ndidi in the last AFCON made us choose the ultra defensive approach, which has severe limitations, especially if you are playing against a team that likes to keep the ball, and also if the opposing team is expecting you to be ultra defensive. If you can't high press the opposition, you give them the space to patiently build up play and target your weakest points untill you break. Waiting for the opposition to cede possession so that you can counter attack can be a wait in vain. Your forward players can do nothing if they do not have the ball in the very areas where they can shoot at goal.

Peseiro's style won't work not only because it is not necessary, but also because of the severe limitations that comes with it.

Bro im sure we will meet a team technically better than us, my own is if Chelle takes a lead and our opponents begins to turn the table on us with excellent display, omo na to start to lock the defense and troway key ooo…defend and catch them on counter…na so morocco take enter semifinal at the last world cup oo…super eagles is not the african spain oo…this super eagles im seeing cannot endure to dominate a more technical team from beginning to the end o

Message to Chelle from MinFelix
“if you want to reach Afcon final, you better pick the defensive style Jpes used at the last edition, else your matter go be like Eguavoen of 2021, wey gather 9pts in group stage only to be sent parking in round 16

since ive been watching Afcon, 2000 precisely my first, Nigeria has always advanced from group stage oo, make e no b your time Nigeria will fail to advance from group stage oooo, especially now that there is usually a 4best placed 3rd teams….every spirit of CHAN eagles that is smelling to follow you to this afcon you better expel it oo

Danielnino00:
On paper: here are the 5 strongest squad at this AFCON:

1. Morocco
2. Senegal
3. Cote d'Ivoire
4. Cameroon
5. Ghana

if cameroon is here, then Nigeria should join in this list…las las na 2 of us DRC flog…our own was even a draw

yinkeys:
Morocco can only do well against European teams that love ball possession lol
Counter attack, under dog football is their strength not possession game

Although I didn’t watch u20 World Cup
I think they will fold against teams like SA, Sénégal or CIV

bro Morocco last bustop will be Quartefinal….if they meet those B class african teams like Angola, Gabon,Benin, E/guinea they will shake…
i don’t see them coming out of that their group A with 9 points Playing Mali, Zambia will b tough for them….you see that Comoros in their group na small bedbug those guys be

Morocco this Morocco that….just wait make Benin or South Africa catch them for afcon🤣🤣

2 types of super eagles annoying game pattern in 2025
1. Scores first and relax until opponents equalizes
Nig 1-0 Zim (Nig 1-1 Zim Ft)
Nig 1- 0 Gab (Nig 1-1 Gab ft) thank for extra time
Nig 1-0 DRC (Nig 1-1 DRC ft)
Nig 1-0 Jam( Nig 2-2 Jam ft)
2. Starts poorly, then when opponents takes the lead you will now see them doing gra gra to score back
- SA 1-0 Nig (SA 1-1 Nig ft)
- Egy 1-0 Nig( equalized 1-1 we still lost the match

semid4lyfe:
In all this, I'll apportion most of the blame to the players.

We had so many lifelines during the qualifiers.

1. SA fielding an ineligible player, and the anticipated 3 points and 3 goals deduction. The team just had to win against Zimbabwe but we blew that chance.

2. Beat SA away. They couldn't do that too.

3. Win the African Play-Off qualifiers but they blew that too.

I doubt they even care as much as we the fans. do about going to the world cup.

omo they care oo, just that dem no good jare, lets tell ourselves the truth super eagles after afcon 2024 no too sabi play ball like that jare….DRC pin us to our box 18 in second half till full time extra time.

The team na off and on team jare

i will still path them on the back by saying they were tired in that game, coming off a 120mins football 3days earlier to play another 120 min football(but that excuse no gel well jare)
Drawing Zimbabwe and Lesotho at home spoilt everything, else deducting 3points from SA would have seen is through as table winners

super eagles and Ghana na same nonsense dem dey play🤣🤣…when i saw Ghana playing a draw against Chad and losing home and away to sudan at AfconQ, i just conclude say doz ones sef na eba🤣

I have always respected Sunday oliseh hs someone that knows football administration very well.
During South africa saga, oliseh said that FIFA might not deduct that 3point, I have forgotten the explanation he made on his podcast.
From that moment I just knew this guy is just a talkative, he doesn't know anything about football. Even a blind man knows that South africa will be deducted 3point. Oliseh suppose know about the rules and the laws of the game.
Sometime this people that talk too much, knows nothing about football.

shey same Oliseh that was all over the internet with this headline?
“South africa is in serious trouble”
