U are absolutely right. Everyone was ball watching instead of attacking the ball.
Yea
I would only ask them to defend in a zone if the attacking team are also attacking the set-piece in a zone. Otherwise it should be strictly woman-to-woman marking on all set-pieces.

If u can play u can play. Would she be the first player to play for the senior team at a young age? Oshoala, Ordega and Oparanozie all did it.
I even recall Ordega going straight to play for the SF a month after playing at the U-17 World Cup.

The Cbs also need know how to play extra midfield when we are with the ball. Ajibade can give back passes if nothing is upfront instead of hanging. Ebi and Plumtre therefore need to be like some pivot of distribution,that way Ajibade is free to go further and it will be easy to regain possesion. By now, this Giant of Wafcon should be the top team when it comes to dominating possesion. We should get a female pep. Lol.

I hate seeing that zonal marking. It irks me. They all looking confused and transfixed as the ball moves past them.
I completely agree with your point on having the CBs act as a pivot distribution point.

Salah is demanding a new £500k/week, 3 year contract; but he is open to negotiating a £400k/week deal.

From this Canada match, the ladies need to be put through rigorous setpieces training. Everyone should know where to be and who to mark. I hate that they're like 7in the box and two shirts come between them to cause terror and they're all taken unawares. Whoever played 3 needs to be talked to. They exploited that part well. And setpieces when attacking too. This has never been addressed, just like the same for the men's team. Is this a curse?


Lovely chances from Ajibade and Payne. If Ebi has forgotten he marking skills she should be spoken too. We don't need anyone distracted or taken unawares at the WWC.

Nnadozie to me is ready for anything right now and im happy about that. But we should also expect Oluehi to be ready as well. I don't know how much their passing Accuracy is, but it better be commendable.


And addressing this fatigue moments, the best way out of it is ball possession. Less running and more passing. It will save their strength. I hate that they zap out while the opponent is energetic and still hungry for pounds pf flesh and they just stroll like they don't care anymore. That's why i want younger ones in the middle, not senior mamas. Sincerely. An 18yr old will just flash past them like flash and they can't even do nothing.


Any team preparing against Falcons will use this to beat us anyday.

What's our gameplan for getting behind defences? I saw none of that vs Canada? We can't be relying on individual brilliance like in past years. Someone will say its just a friendly but we should be doing and showing readiness by now.
You’ve raised cogent points, especially pertaining to defending set pieces.

Waldrum may have to instruct the ladies to revert to woman to woman marking because zonal marking causes them to look confused whenever a corner kick or free kick is swung into the box

Politics2023: Khadijah Okunnu-Lamidi Joins SDP, To Contest For President by PDPGuy(op): 10:01pm On Apr 08, 2022
Khadijah Okunnu-Lamidi, presidential aspirant, says she believes in the Social Democratic Party (SDP) because it is a party that aligns with her vision for Nigeria.

Okunnu-Lamidi said this on Thursday while announcing her decision to join the SDP.

“Nigeria needs a new set of heroes, heroes who do not need anything dangerous than to perform their civic responsibility and would not for N1 or N1 billion trade for the good of our people,” Okunnu-Lamidi said.

“The party is open to the youth, and women and is democratic. It is where the maligned, disenfranchised can find their voice.

“We are here today to say we still believe in the promise of Nigeria. This is why an ordinary Nigerian woman and a true believer in our youths publicly takes a big step politically to officially announce my membership of the SDP.

“Let it be said that we are the party that guarantees education, and affordable health care for all Nigerians; a party that conducts a smart policy that will battle the forces of terrorism and fundamentalism wherever they may exist. It is a party that the youth will participate in the liberation of Nigeria and I will be one of them.

“I joined the SDP because it is credible and promised to work with me and aligns with my vision. I believe I would run the good race to victory and if the primary is not won, there would be no national election.”

On his part, Supo Shonibare, the SDP national chairman, said the party is pleased to welcome Okunnu-Lamidi.

He added that the processes for party’s congress and primaries would be announced next week.

Its about the very poor and childish manner the decision was made.
The stupid NFF didn't even have the common decency or intelligence to discuss it with Oshoala first, before broadcasting it in the media.
Do you know how embarrasing that is, not only to Oshoala and her family, but to her Falcon team mates and Barcelona team mates and all her fans.
This NFF under Amaju Pinnick is beyond incompetent.
Man, we have never had it this bad. This NFF board take 2 steps forward and 10 steps backwards! They're all cra.zy!!

I don't agree with the decision to strip Oshoala of the captaincy. It's too rash and makes no sense.

At Santiago, the selfishness today should not be repeated, the GK error cancelled, we can still overcome the 2goals.
And blame Lukaku. Dude had 3 clean headers and didn’t hit the target with any of them!

I’m not saying Jorg would have dispossessed him, but Jorg much closer to Benz would have made it harder for Benz to connect with the header.

Ofcos it is connected. Lad needed time to clear his head. He really hurt after the Abuja disaster.

He missed the Afcon earlier this year and is going to miss the WC. It's been a tough time for Victor personally. A lad like that wanna and should be playing in tournaments like these.

But he will be back from the next game. He has to put all his focus into trying to win the Scudetto. That will be some consolation for him going forward.

I remember how tough it was for Mikel also missing the 2006 WC as a youngster and getting ruled out for the 2010 WC due to injury. He still recovered from the disappointments and won the Afcon in 2013 and went to 2 WCs in 2014 and 2018.

So Victor will be fine. Lions keep things moving. And he is a lionhearted individual.
And he still has the chance to play at a major tournament next year in Cote d’ Ivoire.

Sunday Dare is the cause of our problem. He gave NFF the order to sack Rohr. Pinnick is even carrying his mess and keeping quiet.

How Sunday Dare kept his job after the Tokyo kits and drugs testing fiasco speaks volumes about the nonchalance in Buharis Govt. If Buhari can't even sack a Sports minister, what we have there is not a President but a walking corpse.
Buhari has always been bad news for the country, so I’m not surprised about his inactions.
Nonetheless, if the Sports ministry/NFF are keen on Oliseh, then it won’t be a bad idea to pair him with Ndubuisi Egbo who has actually won a league title with a European team.
