FT: Nigeria 79-46 DRC
Ezinne Kalu led the scoring with 17pts, with Victoria Macaulay scoring 14

Nigeria 76-45 DRC
4th quarter

Why didn’t VAR order for that pk to be retaken? Adrian has no foot on the line before the kick was taken

Why didn’t Tammy create an angle for a pass?!!!

After two games, D’Tigress conceded only 65 points, and have conceded the fewest points in the group stage.
If this was 2017 or 2015, they would have conceded 90+ points in two games.

So, I will give coach Otis credit in that area

Yes, there are genuine fears about a looming recession in the U.S.

The large space between the defense and the midfield must be reduced today.
Whenever Liverpool have possession in midfield, Jorginho and Kante must drop deep to help out the defense. Likewise, when the team is on the attack, the defense line has to move forward with our midfield. Otherwise, the Liverpool forwards and Milner would have so much joy on the pitch.

D’Tigress will face either Cape Verde or DRC in the quarterfinals on Thursday..

somehow:
Until they prove themselves in the world proper and also against Senegal (won 11 titles against Nigeria's 3), I won't really say they have arrived.

They beat Senegal in the 2017 final by 17 points; and reached the quarterfinals of last year’s World Cup, losing to the US at that stage. I’d also say they are looking good for a 4th African title.
D’Tigress are right there amongst the world’s best teams.

With this resounding victory, D’Tigress have won group B, and are through to the quarter finals

Tulsi Gabbard alone..forget AOC.

By that time, Gabbard would have had 11 years of experience as a federal legislator, and 15 or so years as a soldier; which would play well amongst even the lost moderate and conservative electorate.

I agree she ain’t as far left as the others. She’s more of a center-left person that is anti-war.

raumdeuter:
AOC as what? Congresswoman in New York or what? If you think the ideology of AOC will sell nationwide you are not facing reality. If you know how much mid America dislike those far left ideologies

America isnt just New York, and California

Agreed. I’m only saying she would have a decent shot at the nomination in 2024.

It’s the same reason why Nancy Pelosi can never win a nationwide election. She can only win general elections in California, Oregon, and New York. What Dems need is a candidate who has the right mixture of progressivism and moderation. Thank goodness that none of the present candidates has advocated for abolishing ICE, and are trying to walk back their support for guaranteeing universal healthcare coverage for undocumented immigrants.

However, policies like eliminating the present student loan debt and greater subsidy of college education, would also appeal to swathes of swing Rust-Belt voters. This is because the rising cost of higher ed, including trade school, also affects Midwesterners. Besides, the doctor who receives greatly subsidized/free education would be of tremendous benefit to the blue-collar worker whenever he/she needs quality medical service.

hahahaha!! Biggest beneficiaries indeed!! hear yourself or reread what you just wrote Thanks for d laugh though. Ivanka and Trump Jr. would take some of these "Squad" members to the woodshed. The only sensible Democrat right now is Tulsi Gabbard even though much of her ideology is still tilted far left, but at least she can debate and make a sensible argument without screaming racism. The rest are GABBAGES.

Ivanka Trump? You must be kidding!
What qualifications does she possess to lead the U.S.? Being the daughter of a controversial president?

The biggest beneficiaries of a Trump win in 2020, could be the likes of AOC or Tulsi Gabbard to run in 2024.
On Election Day 2024, AOC will be 35, and would have had 5 years of experience as a Congresswoman.

Also, if Tulsi Gabbard finishes in the top 3 or 4 of the Democratic nominating contest for 2020, she stands a good chance of clinching the party’s nomination in 2024. Her political moderation would be a key selling point in that race.

say no more
Diani my crush and some of those Brazilian players for world cup

Correct!
But I’m an ass man though. Boobs no dey trip me like that

Ibime:
Basketball no be poor man game!

Yes, to an extent.
In Africa, Asia, and some parts of Europe, it’s a rich/upper middle class person’s sport. But in the US, it’s a sport for low income people.

Plano:
Who's she?

She’s a D’Tigress player - the Nigerian female national basketball team
