They still remain in firm control of the match. What a miss by RVP!!

emmanuelatas: Hope boko won't use this stadium to render their useless behaviours. Nice stadium. Wetin my Governor dey do self for delta state

Emmanuel na person? Make him do comot next year

abatically: It was a bad challenge no doubt. But matuidi went for the ball and got onazi's let instead. That is definitely different from Suarez that intentionally bit a player with the ball far away from him. You seriously don't want to take the word of a drug addict like maradona seriously. I mean this guy was a cheat that scored with his hand to help Argentina win the world cup. So tell me why he wouldn't support a barbaric attitude of Suarez. What if he bit him and in the process tore a blood vessel thereby injecting whatever germ he has on his teeth into the blood stream of the lad, will u be here supporting him? Tackling is part of football, biting is not.

I don't remember supporting Suarez in any of my commentaries. I abhor his actions in entirety. It was uncalled for. Separate sheaves from shaft. Read my posts and quote where supported him,or even made the slightest reference to him

Maybe they should replace it with the shout of 'stupid nepa'

. Don't mind all this heat seeking Ppl,make una no go jump inside fire. I wonder whether they just came out of fire *close my eyes quickly and runs out this thread*

abatically: English media a powerful, that is well known by everyone, but it doesn't mean they have their way all the time. Goal line technology had been coming for a long time now and they would have adopted it eventually ; Frank Lampard's goal or not. It is true Lampard's goal added fire to it. Now for the fact that English Media is powerful is nobody's fault.. every press can as well make theirs powerful. England crashed out of the world cup with only 1 point... I didn't hear that press blame FIFA for their poor performance. They accepted they were shyte. But Nigeria lost and we all blame FIFA, who is the sore looser here? England and Nigeria are identical.. So many passion but no talents. The best England can produce in talent are fast and powerful players that lack talent in technical areas, same thing with Nigeria. You can imagine a player like Mata being on the bench for spain. This is a player that would walk into the starting 11 of England and play no 10. As far as England and Nigeria are concerned, we don't have a number 10, Nigeria hasn't had one since jay jay okocha.

But you never hear England fans or press blaming FIFA, they blame their players instead and accept they don't have talent. Even the fans didn't expect much from them in this world cup.

Atleast we are agreed that the English media play a major role in the scheme of things. They add fire in your own words,even if they don't always have their way. We have berated our team sufficiently. We never shielded them. But we also reserve the right to condemn the career threatning challenge on Onazi,same way the english press would do.

I have tried to read most of the comments so far. My candid opinion is that we should continue the same plan used by keshi. Contnuous process of discovering,injecting and moulding of new players into the team. It can be sustained by reviewing the activities of agents in recruiting young,promising and susceptible players to absurd and unproductive leagues.

abatically: Stop spewing Rubbish. What about frank lampard's goal against Germany in 2010 that wasn't counted. If that was an African team u would say it would have counted if it was English. I'm football u win some, u lose some. Live with it.

you are incoherent. My post points to the fact that the English media would not take the incident with a pinch of salt. Let me educate you for I can see you need it. Ronaldo was almost sent packing from england after causing Rooney's expulsion at the world cup. English press had a field day. England lost the hosting right for the 2022 world cup to UAE. English press had a field day disparaging everyone from FIFA to UAE. Nigerians are much better losers than the English. Lest I forget,that Lampard goal you mentioned ignorantly,generated so much furore that embarrased FIFA to the point of accepting the goal line tech in this world cup. Who caUsed all the stir? The answer is clear to every simpleton

thegoodjoehunt: Diego Maradona is right here. Matuidi went to destroy Onazi's leg. His tackle caused more harm. But, every one is quiet. He is African. If Mikel had done this to Benzema, he would have seen a red card.

FIFA has displayed how corrupt they are. Same goes to the English press.

This is especially true for the english press. If it was an english player,they would nearly call for a replay of the match. At best, they would call Matuidi names till the end of his career. Matuidi has apologised,fair enough.

If NFF denies his resignation,they are right. He has to tender his resignation letter to make it official. If he is unwilling to continue,then he should be allowed to go. It is too counter productive to have a coach, who has lost the passion to carry on. It is in the best interest of everybody

donem: Howard made over 17 top saves throughout the match, had it been Enyeama lots of peeps wouldnt have heard word again, due to over hype.

he was fantastic. It is the americans that should do most of the praise singing. Vincent's quality is not over hyped
