Interesting coincidence

The last time Nigeria played in Cameroon two players who scored for Nigeria are not with this current team.

ecoco2014:
We beat Bulgaria 3-0 which could have been 3-1 as Hristo Stoichkov's free kick goal for Bulgaria was disallowed. The 2nd game was a 2-1 loss to Argentina with Samson Siasia chipping the ball past Islas in goal for Argentina and Claudio Cannigia working his way to 2 goals first via a quick freekick from Late Diego Maradona and secondly through lapses between Sunday Oliseh, Austin Eguavoen and Uche Okechukwu. The 3rd game was characterised by late goals in both halves from Daniel Amokachi and Finidi George with a "dog pee" celebration by Finidi George. The 2nd round against Italy saw an Emmanuel Amunike lead maintained till 87th minute with Eguavoen's weaknesses yet exposed leading to equaliser by Roberto Baggio and later a winner in the extra time by same Roberto Baggio. Sad painful day it was as I couldn't eat then.

The Italy that we led till the 88min played the final vs Brazil. The Bulgaria we beat 3-0 made it to the Semi Final. That tells you the quality we had back then. Their undoing was inexperience.

Burkina faso vs Gabon will be decided on penalties. Save this!!

Gabon will win in regulation time

Comoros to qualify for round of 16 if the results remain this way.

According to comments everyone doing well apart from Sadiq

How are Ghana allowing Comoros score anyhow?

GeneralDae:
As it stands, it seems even if Algeria beats Ivory coast by just 1-0, they may still be on their way home

They'll finish 3rd on 4pts

The next team Senegal face might eliminate them

nelszx:
Morocco is 2nd and Algeria 4th respectively

What he saying is that we can displace them more easily than Egypt can displace us.

The 3rd round playoff for CAF will now be a one legged affair in Qatar

ChrisKels:
There are fractures but he ain't out till 2022

2022 is one month away lol

Joebie:
make we arrange friendly with San Marino. If we no beat them 1-0 at least, I change my moniker.

Nigeria will beat them 2-0. Osimhen with a Pk and the other an own goal.

Too all people complaining. This team is playing safe controlled football just to qualify for the next round. This is making up for the lack of quality in all round display. When the chips are down we will see what they have.

Watching Burkina Faso, Egypt, and Algeria scoring goals against opponents. Can't the super eagles score more than 2goals in a match?

So when Nigeria plays these countries it's a different dynamics, but we will be hurt because if we concede (we leak in at least a goal every game) it will be tough to salvage the game based on us not scoring enough goals. We needed a goal against CAR and couldn't get it. We huffed and puffed against Cameroon in 2 friendlies.
On current form, I see Nigeria losing 0-1 to Egypt and Algeria and a 1-1 with Burkina Faso if we meet in a tournament like AFCON.
We are ordinarily better than Burkina Faso and Egypt but very inefficient.

minfelix:
Bro how can an unknown striker race pass to albino so easily...a typical 9ja born and bred defender go clear that guy leg before e enter box 18

Lol. Yeah but Ndidi would have harassed the guy who made the assist.

Why do I have the feeling Onyeka was responsible for the goal we conceded?
If need had held his ground and not launch in only to be looped, the player would not have made the forward pass behind Ekong and Balogun.

Any smart city project without consideration for nature-parks, trees, landscaping, walkways and covered drainage is useless and undermines its smartness.

I am not a fan of Wilder or Fury.
One has the chance to end this once and for all; the other has the chance to take revenge and earn bragging rights.
I wouldn't mind both losing. Both are gloaters in victory.
However I would feel sorry for the loser.


Question - Who do I prefer of the two?

jihday:
Zaidu’s error gave Liverpool their first goal. Hmmmmm

Honest this guy is just a runner. We overrate him.

Le2money:
I can tell you the reason if you ask me.....My Landlord is an associate prof....when he went to USA for his PhD Program....he was employed as a lecturer along side to take the undergraduate student....he said the life of every lecturers lies in the hands of student because at the end of each semesters, a portal will be opened for the students to rate their lecturers and anyone of the lecturers that students comments bad about him or her....he is a goner ....though dey are better than our wicked lecturers here in every bit

Humans have a certain nature, but it is the systems that they find themselves in that dictate how they behave.

texazzpete:
Looks very promising, but won't hat just transfer the traffic to Freedom Way?

Exactly. It is still not enough. Critical reasoning will reveal we need multiple access routes in Lagos. I don't people are ready to have that conversation.

Demigod22:
If you watch things like this, you will realize that the world is a beautiful place, only our government sucks.

Yes. Nigerians have succeeded in making the country hell fire. All they have to do is build cities in harmony with nature that will create a lovely ambience. Sadly there is no leadership; and they cannot organize themselves, make and implement laws that will bring forth beautiful places.

cc12:
I hope this is not home based players playing friendlies that negatively affect Super Eagles
FIFA rankings due to their mediocre performances.

NFF are trying hard to make sure Nigeria does not qualify for Qatar 2022.

They are trying to reduce our ranking by force so that we can play Algeria in the WC playoffs.

Last time I checked we were at 4000 MW, and this was over a decade ago.

Tolulopefinest:
Some of these Saves this Keeper is making, Okoye no go make am.

3-0

Nigeria, please use concrete on roads like this all over the country if maintenence is an issue.

No city in Nigeria except Abuja has good road network, Period.

something about crypto is tied to the under world..believe it or not!

How about operation mark all roads, provide pedestrian and bicycle lanes, sidewalks, landscaping and closed drainages.

You mean this guy has coached Super Eagles before. I thought one of our under age teams.
No problem with being principled but his human management skills are lacking.

This country na cruise
