We beat Mali 81-73

Choked the last quarter again...


Kenya next on Friday

If they keep up the tremendous job from the 3-point line (they made 18 of those!!), and improve on their shots from the paint, then it’s another W over Kenya.

Biden's job approval down to 41%, USA TODAY/Suffolk University Poll finds.

Biden’s ratings are astonishingly going downhill

This is the trajectory that’s going to happen.
Soludo wins the coming Anambra election then uses it as a spring board to contest in the upcoming 2023 presidential election as a Vice President or President.

But he would have to join PDP or APC in order to have any chance of becoming a VP candidate.

James should have crossed to Lukaku instead!!

Here is the complete fixture list for the Aisha Buhari cup

BTW, I must commend the NFF for organizing up to 11 friendlies for the Suler Falcons within this calendar year! This could be a record for any of our national teams. I want to see more of the same next year.

First Lady Cup Draws

This was absolutely ridiculous. I am extremely disappointed in the very poor process that the NFF just displayed to the world.
You seed Nigeria and Cameroon, based on their FIFA ranking, which makes perfect sense. You then have 4 countries left - South Africa (55), Ghana (59), Morocco (81) and Mali (84).

So, how do you do this by creating a perception of equity and maintaining a level of competitiveness?
1. Have two pots - Pot A, with South Africa and Ghana. Pot B, with Morocco and Mali.
2. Use their FIFA ranking to determine who goes into slots 2 and 3 - e.g. A2, B2 and A3, B3
How difficult was that?

I can't believe that this was too difficult for the likes of Aisha Falode to figure out, considering all the years she has spent organizing Women's football, not just in Nigeria but on the Continent. Instead, we get Group A - Nigeria, Morocco and Mali, and Group B - Cameroon, South Africa and Ghana. It gives the impression that the draw was rigged to give Nigeria a free pass to the finals. Disgraceful.

This whole draw show was a farce and very poorly organized.

My man, relax. This tournament is basically a series of friendlies. Even the other countries won’t complain about the draw; in fact, Cameroon may be happy to have drawn both SA and Ghana because it will be an opportunity to test their team against two of the best in Africa.

Moreover, the Super Falcons will eventually have to face at least one of Ghana/SA/Cameroon in the semis and/or final. So, it will still be an intense competition for our team

Bruno Fernandes has now scored 48 PL goals since his Man U debut in February 2020!!!

I’m gonna be ecstatic to the extent that I’ll do cartwheels

Schemerkhiz:
Asisat Oshoala Oshoala have recovered from Covid-19 that kept her out over two weeks ago

Thank goodness!

PSG will be lethal on corner kicks this season, with Marquinhos and Ramos being their starting CBs!!

Two days ago lol

UPDATE!!

Coach Mike Brown has confirmed that he will coach Nigeria at the Afrobasket.
The tournament dunks off in two weeks..

Team list to be announced soon

Great!
He should have the Africa and Europe-based stars available

Cuomo had been living on borrowed time since AG James’s bombshell report was released.. His resignation was always inevitable despite his public display of braggadocio

Can’t believe the Super Cup and EPL are 3 and 6 days away respectively! It’s like the days went by in a flash

Beancounter94:
Show is over. See you in Paris in 4 years time....hopefully no covid.

In 3 years time

chic2pimp:
Nope Gobert's missed free throws cost them. The US simply did not know how to handle Him and kept sending Him to the Line. A 65% free throw shooter shot around 50% I think.

Yea, thanks for the correction

Fournier’s missed free throws cost France in the end

JohnBullMySon:
Canada has "stolen" their way to the goal medal.

Man, I feel gutted for Sweden cos they were the best women’s team at the tournament! Sweden were so so unlucky!

But I’ll rate them as top favorites for the WWC in 2023

Messi to CFC is on the cards..

Australia are killing it!!

Enekwachi’s first attempt is invalid

Nigeria’s 4x100m relay team have failed to qualify for the final…

DissTroy:
They are spreading it to other countries too and running a propaganda on the MSM, attributing any ill-health or death of any anti-vaxxer to Covid-19 to validate their fascist plans.

Here's a circular making the rounds in Guyana, a Carribbean country this week. Covid-19 vaccination and Vax ID are now mandatory.

In New York city, it is now mandatory to show proof of vaccination/negative covid test before entering bars, gyms, clubs etc.

Chritiana Ogunsami

At 25, she would have been a good option for the SF. But since she is now into coaching, I’m not sure if she will have the fitness to play in a game

See free kick from Ezenagu! That was even more impressive when you consider the fact that it was struck from just outside the box.
I’ll definitely like to see more of her in the Super Falcons set up
