Which was why Trump told voters Do you think if this was Romney McCain or Bush the media will take it easier on you because you are trying to be decent? The media demonized every Republican that has ever come out. Let the same Liz Cheney their darling contest a general election and you will see how they will attack her. Trump went dirty punch for punch with the Democrats.

For real, if the media hadn’t demonized the likes of Romney and McCain, Trump wouldn’t have had a political future.

Republican radicals such as Tom Tancredo ran for president in 2008, promising to basically stifle legal immigration. He didn’t gain much traction cos Republican voters thought he was too extreme, and preferred McCain.

So, I would say it was the media and DC political elites who created Trump indirectly

I commend LASG on their soon to be completed electric rail line.. Finally, Jakande’s vision, which was truncated by Buhari’s military government, is coming to fruition.

Then once the 4th mainland bridge is complete, it would be safe to say that the era of 3-4hr traffic jams in Lagos would be a thing of the past.

Contrary to popular belief, the democrats spent decades labeling every republican as everything they label Trump. Bush was Hitler... Romney wanted to put black America back in chains... etc... The reason Trump came to power is because he hits back at these attackers... where as the old republican guard just allowed the entire republican base to be insulted and dismissed without a word while they slunk back to their wealth that makes them immune to the social issues that common republicans face.

Trump is a terrible person in a lot of ways... but the republicans need either him or a clone of him to have any chance to win... and even then, it's not a great chance... but at least it's a chance.

Defensive errors got them a good portion of their goals, aside the pks they got. They are good at Cks. Their game against USA shows how bad the usa defence was. Their no 7 will struggle alot vs Imuran imo. She's their star girl.

Midfield battle? Non existent- We will come out tops.
Setpieces? I give it to them. We should be wary of in box tackles. That's if they give them a chance, which i doubt. Got some good headers too.

As for attack- i doubt they can handle our forwards, sincerely. The Ghana goal is proof of that. Even if Flourish starts from bench, they still won't be able to successfully soak in the threat. We really need to take our chances as we are going to see alot of those.

Coach Danjuma better allow Abiodun start that game. This is her kind of game.

We will be their first real test of their own strengths. I won't be surprised if they go the korean way.

It looks like all our opponents, except France (and possibly Spain) would have parked the bus in our matches. This is truly unprecedented. I can’t even recall the last global tournament where most of our opponents started the game by parking the bus against us

The Falconets, as some of us have rightly pointed out, need to get more shots on target.

Aside from the 2 penalties, the girls only had 4 attempts on target out of 22. That is a shocking 18% accuracy rate.

I really gbadun Imuran crosses. We no just get head finisher for team. Abeg make Osimhen come disguise enter this team

Imuran should be on 3 Assists by now.

Yea
The crosses were threatening all game! I like the fact that the team has improved its crossing ability and corner kicks as the tourney has progressed.

Like you said, it’s a shame that those crosses were under-utilized; if not, the Falconets would have handily beaten Canada 6-1. No cap.

Some Nigerian publications use the words "soccer" and "football" interchangeably. So it is also proper to use the word "soccer" on here.

I’m expecting a much more open game on Thursday because the Canadians are already out and have nothing further to lose; and would probably want to leave the tourney on a high…

I would bank on Sebastine to flourish in such an open game

Jobs/Vacancies › Re: How Legally Binding Is An Employment Contract? by PDPGuy: 5:39pm On Aug 15, 2022

It depends on the particular jurisdiction. For eg, in “At will” employment jurisdictions, regardless of the terms of a written employment contract, the employer reserves the right to alter the contract at any time, with/without notice

Flourish Sebastine gives me Messi vibes! Yes, that’s the impact she’s had in both games.

Kudos to the team for notching Nigeria’s 20th win in the tournament as well. I noticed the pass accuracy improved, but the decisiveness in the final 3rd needs improvement.

Flourish Sebastian indeed finished with a flourish as she scored Nigeria’s 65th U-20 WWC goal, in their 41st match at the competition.

The win over France was also the Falconets 19th win in the competition. Will the Falconets notch their 20th win vs. South Korea tomorrow?
