Beorn:
I still think they're average at best and lack real quality. How many of those Iceland players can even make the bench of top quality clubs or teams? We're talking of a team made up of film directors, dentists, shop attendants, doctors, etc. That's why I used a range of between mediocre to average to grade them. What that team have that most teams don't, is their collective fighting spirit. They fight like warriors. Their lack of other tactics makes them average. They just have one pattern only.

And we didn't switch to 352 in the second-half, we started the game in that formation formation (Check Whoscored.com for confirmation). So what changed? It's not like those spaces we exploited was missing in the first-half, we're just too foolish to realise counter was our best way of breaking them down. In the first-half, we didn't make use of the space they left while attacking us. They dominated us for long periods in the first-half unlike when they were busy defending against Argentina. Our wing backs who were expected to help in the counter or release ball on time to our forwards for swift counter, but we weren't doing it. Even our midfield with Mikel being the culprit, weren't playing those pass-splitting through pass fit Musa to latch unto. Iceland came out to attack us when compared with their match against Argentina. Don't let the counter deceive you. You don't only counter when you're defending, you can counter in an attacking set-up as well. Man City do play counter-attacking football despite their attacking football.

During the second-half, we employed these counter tactics and won them. The Ebuehi that was introduced helped add pace on that left wing. The coach came with the right formation, but our players didn't play to his instructions. When they did in the second-half, we carved them open, over and over again. If we'd gone for the 352 formation in our first game and removed Mikel as our SS, we may have gotten a draw in that match.

DannyKoice:
Mehn I didn't know Nigeria had it in them. That second half showing was fantastic. With this putting them in a more advantageous position than Argentina, Nigeria will have the opportunity to play counter attacking football against them and a real occasion awaits the Super Eagles. I don't imagine the haphazardous Argie defence will relish squaring up against the scintillating pace of Musa and Iheanacho.

Told ya

UP Nigeria.

KoiceReloaded:
Suddenly fried wingless chickens' 0-2 loss to Croatia don't look so dire now. Argentina just got waterboarded by Modric and the gang. Oyetpel and Beorn, what do you think?

Croatia were outstanding, too much pressure on Messi to perform for Argentina.

I am optimistically rooting for Nigeria tomorrow, hope they won't disappoint me.

yemmight:
Me I know Buhari really mean well for the nation if not for the likes of Saraki and co.

That's why i get worried about this Sowore, if he wins how did he want to preside well with the type of Legislators we have in Nigeria.

I have watched Acrimony and i liked it.

Though like most people said here, it seems Nollywood ish, but there were lessons there.

Will surely make my lil sis watch it.

I am curious about a court scene where the judge had already declared his verdict but Robert's lawyer present another case file to the judge about Melinda's threats and the judge dealt with it immediately, is that possible? I thought it was another court case on its own.

Jumanji(1995).. 8.5/10
Genre: Fantasy

For good 104min , I was in a state of anxiety, thrilled, and entertained. The suspense in the movie tends to build as the story developed. Content wise, this movie was written to perfection, How I wish Jumanji: welcome to the jungle stuck to at least 80% of the original source material of this movie, it would have been perfect.

Small solders..7/10
Genre:SciFi/ Fantasy/Comedy

Steven Spielberg never fails to disappoint. Seeing the movie now, I can't help but reminisce about the good old days when I used to see this movie on channels TV most Sundays.

Never knew there was a Jumanji before welcome to the jungle.

rentAcock:
Nigeria - Beaten
Egypt- Beaten
Tunisia - Beaten
Morroco - Beaten
Senegal - will be beaten

Maybe it's time for FIFA to barr all African teams from participating in the world Cup when there are more deserving countries like Italy, Chile, Holland etc. Africa is a failed continent, the world should move on and leave us to wallow in primitivity.

Fool, so those countries you mentioned are more deserving yet they couldn't qualify.

If na oyinbo man talk this now, una go gather abuse am for twitter.

troubleseller:
Why??

Can't you deduce it? shebi you watch Small town crime.

Ishilove:
And what is wrong with having a female child??

One wrong move and their life destroyed.

troubleseller:
Finally saw Small Town Crime. The movie was meh..

I don't want to give birth to a female child bro.

Beorn:
LMAO.

When Oyetpel came online about three days ago talking about this movie, I immediately replied him with. . . .



I had already read the reviews and all were negative, so I knew I shouldn't download it till people on here gave it a positive review. This is one of the reasons you'd endeavour to check out ratings before downloading a movie. Take heart.

Do you know the worst part? They plan to do a third instalment. Terrible movie.

I also read the reviews, but the first one was good, that's why i downloaded this sequel.

armadeo:

Guess Red Sparrow was based on this.

gentlegenius:
Even the fine Jersey they went there to display, I didn't see them wear it tonight.
Like you rightly said, buhari is an epitome of bad luck. Everywhere he goes, Bad luck followed him. He visited Morocco, they lost their first game to a common Iran... He called our Eagles before the game, we lost our first game to a Croatian team that wasn't even fantastic tonight.

2019 should come quickly so that we can vote out this bad luck from our country.

Croatia were the designated home team through the seeding which they used to group them. We were the designated away team. Croatia have plenty white on their home jersey, which is why we couldn't wear our best jersey.

Beorn:
Not again. I'm not against female Thor, I'm against calling her the name Thor. Have I been typing in French all these while?

Let me use a layman explanation. You're Oyetpel, right? Now, if I'm a hacker and I hacked your account and start posting the nude pic of a Nairalander. She then reports you to the cops and after you were arrested, you proved beyond all reasonable doubts that you're hacked and you aren't the person. Will the cops say "it doesn't matter, we know you're innocent but since the hacker posted the nudes through Oyetpel, you're guilty and will be charged as Oyetpel for a crime you didn't commit"?

They won't. They look for me and arrest me and register the name of villain as Beörn not Oyetpel. So therefore, if a new Thor emerges, she already had her own unique name before she defeated Thor and she'd called that name and GODDESS of thunder not Thor who's a GOD of thunder.

Bro, i just read a little about it now, female thor will be jane foster, Thor's love interest. A kind of supernatural power made her able to wield the mojnir.

And her name is Thor, so you have got to deal with.

I know it's hard, it's like a girl breaking up with a man.

SO DEAL WITH IT BRO, a female her name Thor is coming to our screen soon so deal with it or refrain from seeing it when it's out. haha.
peace.
Naija chickens next.

Beorn, you are fine with genderwashing but against a female thor?
You are contradicting yourself.
Do you know the background of the female thor?
It might be set years after the male thor must have passed away.
And Koice have quoted the director. "The female thor will be worthy of her role and also able to wield the mojinr"
She might be a greatgrand daughter of our favourite thor.
Stop contradicting yourself.

Ishilove:
Who is playing sef? Last time I watched World cup was June 2010

Kai.
Better watch 2nyt.
Nigeria vs Croatia- 8:00pm.

How is that connected to movies, oga?

Dominique dey watch football, you just siddon dey watch Film.

KoiceReloaded:
I was expecting this, lolz. What took you so long.

What do you make of Nigeria's match this evening? W/D/L?

KoiceReloaded:
Penaldo, amirite?

At least Penaldo scored his own Messi couldn't.

KoiceReloaded:
I can't imagine watching a Nigerian football match in a cinema. The whining and the loud noise at every miss and goal will probably drive me crazy. I prefer to stream it in the privacy of my home, at least, that way I can hear the commentary and analysis.

Awww, as if you were there, girls were screaming throughout especially when we have the ball.

KoiceReloaded:
What movie did you regret going to cinema and paid to see? Mine is:

- Jurassic World 2018: Nothing new to see, The villain... okay lemme stop here, don't wanna spoil it for others.
- The 2nd 300 movie: I fell asleep watching this.
- Rampage: It's fine that the The Rock played an Igbo guy, but man, that movie is just bad mehn. Too damn predictable.
- Justice League: Thought it was gonna be marvelesque or something close, only to see mighty Superman get his ass handed to him by frackin Batman. Mtchew.
- Star Wars: The Last Jedi: Everybody suck in that movie. I really don't know what to expect, but I expected more.
- Transporter Refueled: I won't watch another Transporter movie after this.
- 50 shades of Grey: In my defence, it wasn't my idea, I went with a friend. Never again.
- Murder on the Orient Express: Suffice to say Agatha Christie will be turning in her grave right now.
- Taken 2: Too predictable. Never bothered with the 3rd movie as a result.
- After Earth: Wasn't my idea.
- Ocean 8: Wasn't my idea. Dozed off in the middle. Rihanna is an horrible actor btw.

The only time i have been to the cinema was when Nigeria played against France at 2014 world cup.

Friends dragged me tho. Maybe if i still have friends i would have frequented the cinema more.

okwabayi:
Committing crimes is a regular thing for humans. What's the news here?

Nairalanders seem to think many white people crimes do not exist.

Some think only Nigerians commits suicide.

Sometimes i have had to tell people on many threads to visit dailymail everyday because they believe only tragedy exist in Nigeria.

Escape Plan 2: Hades is out guys.

Remember the prequel? The one which Rambo/Rocky is master of escaping from prison no matter the obstacle.

Just like one guy said, Ronaldo have scored against almost top goalkeepers. He doesn't know how it feels like to keep against the GOAT.
