Guys, CAF Nations League will kick off in August with 36 nations divided into three leagues - A thru C.

The top 12 teams (per FIFA ranking) would be subdivided into four groups, with the winners of each group advancing to the final four in August 2021.

The Republic of Congo have pulled out of hosting next year's AWCON due to lack of financial capacity!

If Nigeria were to step in to host, I think Uyo, Port Harcourt and Lagos (either Agege stadium or TBS) could host the matches.

Yes oh. I've been in favor of expanding the tournament, ever since I discovered that the AFROBASKET Women's tournament features 12 teams.

Labor Secretary, Alex Acosta, has resigned from the position. I had a hunch that the Epstein controversy would be too hot for him to handle, and would make his position untenable

Guys .which midfield combo is better?

Mikel/Onazi (2013)

or

Ndidi/ Etebo (2019)

??
Mikel/Obasi (2013) just shades it because they were, at the time, the perfect combo of creativity and brawn. Our present midfield is mostly brawn and is light on creativity.

CNN will conduct a draw to place the candidates on each debate night, on July 18. The 20 candidates who qualify for the July 30th and 31st debates will be notified by both CNN and the DNC on July 17.
The debate will be moderated by Dana Bash, Don Lemon and Jake Tapper.

Meanwhile, the September 12th and 13th debates will be hosted by ABC and Univision in Houston, Texas. To qualify for that debate, candidates are required to have at least 130,000 unique donors (including 400 unique donors in 20 states), AND hit 2% or more in three selected polls.

Something tells me that Rohr would resign after this AFCON even if we win the trophy. He would rather bow out when the ovation is loudest.

"Medicare for all", which is now popular, is a product of liberal intelligentsia. Over 50% of Americans prefer a system whereby the government guarantees health insurance for people who do not have access to private insurance. But most people do not want to do away with their employer-sponsored health insurance plans, so its best for the Democratic presidential hopefuls to not come up with policy proposals that eliminate private insurance.

Dedetwo:
Why should a defender involve in ball joggling within his/her eighteen yard box? If Balogun was Emanyo, Nigeria/Madagascar duel would have been a different result.
When I said "playing out from the back", I didn't mean that the defender should be joggling with the ball inside her box. What I mean is that the defender should have the composure to pass the ball to a midfielder (or fellow defender) when one opposition player is charging towards her, and when she isn't under any sort of immediate pressure from the opposition.
But in instances where two (or more) opposing forwards are trying to close her down, she can then balloon the ball away or hit a long ball to our forwards.

I don't agree with you on Rapinoe, i think she's above average although I feel Alex is way better. Green is a winger for the UK team, she had the most touches in against Sweden and US respectively during the world cup. When you watch Europeans and Americans play, it's easy to lose hope in our team. A lot has to be done before the olympics if we are to win any medals, even their psychology isn't up to per. We need quick thinkers and players that aren't intimidated by fair skin. The Falcons I watched during the world cup are not the same team I see against African opponents.
Spot on!
During the last WC, most of our players dwelt too long on the ball, trying to figure out the next move. That allowed our opponents to easily dispossess the player in possession, and/or cut out passes with ease.

I appreciate Dennerby's counter-attacking philosophy; it can be useful when playing against teams that love to possess the ball a lot and teams with relatively slow defenders. The problem he had is that the players were, 60% of the time, clueless about how to mount effective attacks on the opponents' goal.

Dedetwo:
Emenayo is quicker and younger than Ohale.
Why I prefer Ohale to Emenayo is that Ohale knows how to play out from the back.
Emenayo is an "anywhere belle face" defender. Even when she has enough time to control the ball and pass to a teammate, she would still baloon the ball away.

Why's Onome missing? plus Oshoala, I don't understand her again. We need agile players not strollers on the field. People like Greene of UK and Robinoe of US teams. We need coaches like Garry, to achieve anything meaningful in the world stage
Onome is 36...And the last WC was probably her last international tournament for Naija.

Falcon's future center backs should consider Chidinma Okeke, Ugochi Emenayo, Mariam Ibrahim, Ijeoma Kenneth.
Right.
In a 3-5-2, the three defenders could be Okeke, Ohale and Ijeoma Kenneth.

Dedetwo:
Which team will bring Oshoala, Ajibade and Ohale to the Olympics?
Ajibade and Ohale distinguished themselves well at the WWC.
Oshoala, for some reason was bang average at the tournament; maybe it had to do with the ultra-defensive tactics of Dennerby. However, I’ll still take her along because her pace and strength would be a valuable addition to the team.

They should get away joor.

The turnout in Stadiums have been very poor, unless Egypt is playing. Why can't they come out and support other teams playing?

Now that RSA kicked them out, they should just kukuma sit their bûtts at home and watch on their TVs. Rubbish
Well, a big reason why few fans turn up at the stadia is the relatively high price of the tickets. The cheapest tickets go for like N3,200!

Sports › Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by PDPGuy:
The Super Falcons will kick start their 2020 Olympics qualification with a double-header against Algeria in August and September. And will have to play at least 6 more matches (4 rounds in total) to qualify for the Olympics.

Assuming the team advances to the 5th round of qualifying, and lose both legs, they would have to play a two-legged intercontinental playoff against Chile, sometime in January and February 2020. The winner of that playoff qualifies for the Olympics.

You could not be more correct. You should have added Onome Ebi, Oshoala and Ajibade. This girl Ajibade will jinx any Nigerian team that has her as a member.
You're spot on with regard to Onome Ebi. She is already 36, and should give way for a CB partnership of Ohale and Chidinma Okeke.
But I still think Ajibade and Oshoala should continue to be part of the team. Ajibade was easily our best attacker at the WC despite playing only 45 minutes throughout the tournament.

For the proposed 32-team WWC, I'd suggest the following slot allocation:


*CAF - 5.5
UEFA - 12
CONCACAF - 4
CONMEBOL - 4
*AFC - 5.5
Oceania - 1

The last spot will be decided by an Intercontinental playoff between Africa's 5th best team and AFC's 6th best team
