The first tweep is dreaming of seeing Oshoala and Lyon and Norway legend Ada Hegerberg playing together.


The second tweep is looking beyond Atletico Madrid in the quarter-final of the Champions League and dreaming of seeing Oshoala play against Pernille Harder's Wolfsburg in the semi-final.

Cheryl Roberts is a South African journalist. Banyana Banyana players accuse her of writing negative stories about them and praising Nigerian players.

The other tweeps are wondering how Oshoala has been able to maintain her form despite the break.

Maria Teixidor is Barca's former director of women's football. Fans of Barca's women team praise her for assembling a team that has been able to topple Atletico Madrid and is now challenging for the Champions League. They particularly praise her for finding Oshoala in China.


Ms Teixidor resigned earlier this year in protest at the policies of Barca president Josep Maria Bartomeu.

Some Nigerians accused the Barca players of racism because they did not celebrate with Oshoala when she scored.

However, their claim is not right because they were depending on the highlight video, which was very short. The players actually celebrated with Oshoala, as you can see in the last picture. This was a friendly match and so emotions were not high, so there was no need to rush to celebrate. You can see that the celebration was also not great when Jenni scored.

The players have a great relationship with Oshoala (as you can see from their Instagram stories).

These tweeps are wondering why the coach starts Oshoala on the bench.

Super Falcons striker Asisat Oshoala scored two goals in Barcelona women’s 3-0 win against Montpellier, in a friendly game in Spain on Sunday, Completesports.com reports.

The game was played at the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gampar stadium behind closed doors.

After a goalless first half Oshoala broke the deadlock in the 64th minute and made it 2-0 on 86 minutes.

And two minutes into added time Barcelona got their their goal thanks to Jenni Hermoso.

Barcelona will face Montpellier again in another friendly game in France next week Saturday.

Oshoala and her Barcelona teammates were crowned league champions after the campaign was ended prematurely due to the coronavirus outbreak.

Jenni and Oshoala are the highest goal scorers in the Spanish League and two of the highest goal scorers in Europe. So who should the coach start? Should he start Jenni, or Oshoala or both? (Jenni can play behind the striker, but Barca also has a lot of great mudfielders).

This article is from Barcelona's website. It has been translated from Catalan by Google. (Note: Luis Cortes is Barca's coach).

Women - Montpellier: Great victory in the first friendly (3-0)

The Catalans have beaten the French with authority thanks to a double by Oshoala and a goal by Jennifer Hermoso in a duel completely dominated by those of Lluis Cortés

Barça's great victory to start preparing for the Champions League. The Catalans have won with authority in Montpellier (3-0) thanks to a double by Oshoala and a goal by Jennifer Hermoso in a match perfectly dominated by the team of Lluis Cortés. The duel took place in the Sports City and behind closed doors for health reasons, and was the first friendly before facing the final eight of the Champions League.


Dominant Blaugrana

The Catalans clearly dominated the first half, with a very close Montpellier and countless chances for the Barça players, but the visiting goalkeeper Schmitz saved his team with spectacular stops.

Especially after the hydration break, when the Barça monologue was absolute and only the goal was missing. Several goal opportunities, with Jennifer and Martens as main protagonists, and even a ball on the post. In fact, the Dutchwoman has been one of the most outstanding, very incisive from the right side, where the young Jana Fernández has also made a great first part.


Oshoala opens the scoring

In the second half, Lluis Cortés moved from the bench and gave way to several players right at the restart: Cata Coll, Graham, Melanie, Hamraoui, Aitana Bonmatí and Oshoala. Precisely the striker was responsible for breaking the tie: great deep pass from Mariona and Oshoala , with a good touch, overtook the visiting goalkeeper (1-0, minute 64). However, minutes before Cata Coll had saved the visiting goal with a great stop in front of Engman.

Although the second half has been more balanced, the Catalans have been able to transform all the chances they have resisted in the first. And again the Nigerian, who already scored both goals in the training match a few days ago, has seen the goal again, this time taking advantage of an error by the visiting goalkeeper (2-0, minute 86). Already in added time, Jennifer Hermoso , who had re-entered along with Bruna and Emma, ​​scored the 3-0 at the exit of a corner (min. 92).

Finally, a convincing victory in what has been the fifth friendly between Barça and Montpellier in the last five seasons (three wins, a draw and a defeat) and what has been the most unbalanced of all. In addition, it has been the first game of the Catalan preseason to continue preparing for the 2019/20 Champions League , which will be played in the Final 8 format in the Basque Country, from 21 to 30 August. We must remember that the quarter-final rival will be Atlético de Madrid, at the San Mamés stadium.

Wow! I've just remembered!

I was trying to see if I could find a video of Babangida's trip to Germany in 1987 when I remembered some of the things that were written in the papers at that time.

Some people said that Babangida's ailment was punishment for what had happened the previous year. Dele Giwa had been killed by a parcel bomb the previous year and many people believed that Babangida was behind the assasination.

Masquerades in Dele Giwa's hometown had placed a curse on the people that were responsible for Dele Giwa's death and some people said that Babangida's ailment was a manifestation of the curse in his life.

Syphax:
Please why is he called President Babangida instead of General Babangida?

He can be called either President Babangida or General Babangida because he was both a president and a general.

jidamsel43:
Why is he not standing?

He's in a wheel chair.


He was shot during the Civil War and part of the bullet is still lodged in his body. He suffers from radiculopathy and he had to go to hospitals in France and Germany for treatment while he was president.

I remember when he went to Germany in 1987. It was announced that he had radiculopathy and people were trying to learn how to spell and pronounce the name of the ailment.

The NTA showed him limping to the presidential jet as Admiral Aikhomu waved goodbye. They also showed him in hospital when his wife went to visit him and they showed him talking to Admiral Aikhomu on the phone.

He has to wear orthopaedic shoes now.

I will create posts and threads about whoever I feel like. You can also create posts and threads about whoever you feel like.

This is my last post about this matter. I won't respond anymore.

Topmaike007:

A house and chairs is now project to be inspected, and the op is proud promoting this garbage.

Op has finally remove the building pictures, now posting drainage. Chai mediocrity being celebrated

This is very funny. I wish I had seen it earlier.

1) How can anybody that is not a mod change the first post in a front page thread? The first post in front page threads are locked!!! I did not change anything.

2) Are you sure that you can see properly? The so-called house with chairs is there as it has always been. It is on the 5th post where it has always been. The picture of the drainage is on the first post where it has always been.


3) I am not promoting or celebrating anything! I simply reported an event. Can you show me where anything is being celebrated?

It is better to think properly before reacting to something, rather than rushing to react without thinking.
