Would be Tanzania’s greatest achievement in senior women’s football

TheSuperNerd:
Yep. 6 Gold Medals now and all from Para-Lifting and Weighlifting Events. We never unleash our Main Medals Avengers yet ooo in Athletics. Lol

Haha. By the time athletics is done, we will have at least 12 gold medals 😁💪🏽

It’s simply raining Gold for Nigeria at the Commonwealth Games!

Game, set and match

TheSuperNerd:
I need just one of the players to confirm this. Especially that 100k dollars prize.

Same here.

But I’m not sure the players want to be loud about it sha

This race will be a nail-bitter all the way till Election Day!

Countdown to WAFCON 2026: Tournament History Titbits series with Nerdie
Kickoff: July 26th
Super Falcons Opener: July 28th v Malawi


Titbit 6:

🟢Most Team goals scored in WAFCON History - 237 Goals⚽️

Nigeria's Super Falcons tops the Wafcon Team Goals Charts with 237 goals scored in 79 games.

South Africa is next with 111 goals. A gap of 126 goals over the next highest scoring team in Wafcon history.

Nigeria averages exactly 3.00 goals per game.

Insane Attacking Output.

I think your stats include the 1991 and 1995 World Cup qualifiers

BREAKING:

The National Sports Commission DG, Shehu Dikko, is on his way to Morocco to present the keys of the houses that presidency promised to the Super Falcons.

Dikko also stated that $100,000 cash prize, promised to each player by President Tinubu last year, has also been paid into each player’s bank account.

TheSuperNerd:

The baby mama supposed to dey pay Oliseh child support. At 34 she no dey shame

😂🤣
She no be millionaire nau

I hear that the U.S. IRS will reportedly tax 30% of Spain’s $51 million prize money.

Nawa oh

The story is that each team’s prize money is divided by the number of matches they played in any of the host countries. Using that metric, Spain earned over $44 million in their matches that were played in the U.S.

That’s why the IRS will collect 30% of that amount as tax. But if there is a tax treaty between the U.S. and Spain (and other deductions), the tax amount could be lower.

BlueRayDick:
But why do some of these guys enjoy having older baby mama's?

This baby mama is almost 10 years older than him. How does he feel comfortable having a child with someone with that much age difference between them?

My boss, the thing is that some of these guys, especially those who have lived most of their lives in the West, do not really care about age difference as long as the chick is sexy or beautiful; unlike in Naija where it is almost a taboo.

Likewise, the older ladies do not care to be knocked up by a much younger dude as long as he earns millions of US$, £ or €. Let me tell you, even in Naija, many women, these days, wouldn’t mind being with a guy who is 6 years younger than them, as long as he is taking in serious cash, say 15 million Naira/month or more.

The reason why many Naija-based say they can’t date a younger dude (especially a man in his mid 20s) is because, typically, those dudes are still hustling to provide 2 daily meals for themselves. So, logically, those guys wouldn’t be able to provide for any lady.

Dude is even nonchalant with his child support payments 😏

Should Nigeria spend at least 2.2 trillion Naira (for stadium upgrades/reconstruction alone) in co-hosting a future World Cup with Ghana, Cote D’Ivoire?

See quads!

It looks like FIFA are heavily leaning towards expanding the World Cup to 64 teams for, at least, the 2030 edition 🤷🏾‍♂️ per the CONMEBOL Chief

Translation: The next one is played at home! In 2030, the World Cup comes to Uruguay, Argentina, and Paraguay, a great opportunity for soccer, to celebrate the Centenary of the World Cup with a competition featuring 64 teams

TheSuperNerd:
Cafu - 3 WC finals played. Won 2, lost 1.

Messi - 3 WC Finals played. Won 1, lost 2.

Pele - 3 WCs won but 2 WC finals played. Won all. Never lost a WC final.
He missed the 1962 WC Final due to bad injury he picked up in the early stages of the tournament vs Czech Slovakia (same team Brazil faced in the final and beat 3-1). This was only after his assist and wonder solo goal vs Mexico in the first group stage game that is almost similar to Maradona's vs England in 1986.

Garrincha, Greatest Dribbling Winger in football history stepped up and powered Brazil in Pele's absence thru the K.Os and the final. This was Pele's 2nd WC and Garrincha's 2nd WC title too.


NB: Maradona played 2 WC Finals... winning 1 and losing 1.

Interestingly, Pele wasn’t originally given a winners’ medal at the 1962 final, because the rules, then, stipulated that medals were to be awarded only to players who played in the match.

However, I think it was sometime around 2004 or 2005 (not too sure) that FIFA retroactively awarded Pele that 1962 winners’ medal

TheSuperNerd:
My Good man, I cant wait. Our first game vs Temwa and Tabitha Chawinga will be exciting.

Okoronkwo, Echegini, Ajibade, Oladipo, Nnadozie, Demehin, Abiodun Deborah... etc... Big names in African women football and some have shone on the world stage and went toe to toe with European Champs, England.

Spain made me smile today. The Super Falcons shall make me smile further as we chase La Undecima.

Yes oh.

I’m with you in backing the ladies to bring home that 11th title

Unlimited22:
I keep telling y'all Lautaro would have certainly played extra time and the red card nixed that plan

Exactly.
I think the referee “panicked” in booking Enzo, after he had realized that he had been far too lenient on the Argentines’ rough play. I’m willing to bet that if the ref had booked 3-4 Argentina players in that first half, he would have ignored Enzo’s dissent, and only booked him for the foul on Cubarsi

Unlimited22:
Omo see agenda

Especially given that Di Maria did not play the final of 2014

That poster perfectly re-echoed my earlier point. Aside from Messi, Di Maria has been the most important attacking player for Argentina since 2014. It was a just a shame that injury kept him out of that 2014 final

I still cannot believe that a team filled with UCL winners/finalists, multiple league winners, and containing Messi, etc could not muster a single goal attempt until the 117th minute 🙆🏽‍♂️

Scaloni has a lot of explaining to do whenever he and the squad touch down in Buenos Aires!

Lautaro Martinez, despite his clutch plays in the previous two games, not being fielded at all, is a scandal

Don’t worry, in 6 days time, the CAF WAFCON starts 😁

Spain are also the first team to simultaneously hold the men’s and women’s World Cup trophies 😮‍💨😮‍💨

Just like that, Cucurella has won back-to-back trophies at the MetLife stadium in the span of 12 months 😁

MorataFC:
Rigged

Lmfao 😂😂

patrickmuf:
That useless Gonzalez was supposed to play the role of Di Maria.

As in! That Gonzalez dude isn’t even good enough for Wolves, let alone a top-tier international team

BlueMann:
They are a far cry from the side that won in 22. Losing Di Maria with no replacement, Enzo, MacAllister and RDP have all regressed badly, and Alvarez was nowhere near the heights he hit in the last tournament. They have overachieved massively, and Spain exposed this. Remove Messi, I doubt they would have escaped Cape Verde.

💯💯 nothing further to add

Rodri wins the Golden Ball

0 - 🇪🇸 Spain haven’t trailed for a single minute at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Only three teams have won the competition without going behind: 🇮🇹 Italy in 1938 and 1982 and 🇩🇪 Germany in 1990.

Controlled.
