I agree with y’all that Chukwunonye performed way better as a right-back. She brought do much energy to the attack that I wonder why she was initially on the bench huh

Anyway, my preferred lineup would be:

———————Nnadozie—————-

-Chukwunonye—-Ebi—-Ohale—-Ebele——

—————————Ayinde———————-

—————Okobi————A. Okoronkwo——-

———Oshoala——-Oparanozie—-Ordega—-

Generally, your rent shouldn’t exceed 30% of your annual income. Anything over 30% is too much.

With the way Equatorial Guinea have turned out to be the whipping ladies of the group, should coach Dennerby hand Nnadozie a starting spot on Saturday?

Sports › Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by PDPGuy: 4:50am On Nov 22, 2018

Assuming Zambia beats SA 1-0 on Saturday, and Nigeria beats Equatorial Guinea, both Nigeria and South Africa would still qualify. And Nigeria would win the group.

The tie-breaker in that situation would be Goal Difference in matches involving SA, Nigeria and Zambia.
Results obtained against Equatorial Guinea would be disregarded. So, the GD of teams would be:
Nigeria +3
South Africa 0
Zambia -3

Then, if Zambia defeats South Africa 2-0, SA still advances because the GD would be:
Nigeria +3
South Africa -1
Zambia -2

Ahhhh... Abeg oooo... No third place for us abeg. And SA Berra beat whoever they face in that semi because I want to meet them again. Let it be a repeat of AWCON 2002 with Ghana. You don't beat the Falcons in the group stage and go Scot free... Mbanu!

Fun facts_

- The Super Falcons have scored 161 AWCON goals in its present format (since 1998); and Ajibade scored the 160th goal today. cool

- If the 1991 and 1995 tournaments are included , the total goals scored rises to 208. In both tournaments, Nigeria played six matches in each one of them.

- Altogether, Nigeria has played 64 AWCON matches (when you include the 91' and 95' tournaments).

I forsee a NGA vs RSA final. A rematch is on the cards and South Africa will make it to their first Women's World cup.

Me too, I also want to see SA qualify for a first ever world cup.
Even if they don't make it to the final, I'll be backing them to beat their opponent in the bronze medal match (provided that opponent is not Nigeria cheesy

SA beat Equitorial Guinea by 7-1. If we play like our 2nd half today, then we beat Equatorial Guinea by a big margin, and Zambia beat South Africa, then we top our group.
Equatorial Guinea side is terribly unfit and out of shape. Oshoala will have a field day against them.

In Group A, I fear for Ghana. Mali will almost certainly beat Algeria. If Ghana do not beat Cameroon, they're out. If they beat Cameroon by 1 goal, they're still out if Mali win. They need a big goal margin against Cameroon.
Looking forward to Nigeria vs Cameroon next Tuesday already.

I imagine Oshoala is licking her lips already cheesy

The Super Falcons should beat Equatorial by at least a 6-goal margin.
But the SA v Zambia game is highly unpredictable. The South Africans would take it easy knowing that a draw is sufficient for them to win the group. However, a lackadaisical approach from SAncould open the door to Zambia dominating the game and nicking a 1-0 win.

By the way, the Super Falcons have how had 42 attempts on goal at this tournament. 18 attempts against Zambia, and 24 attempts against South Africa.

But the team has only 8 attempts on target.

That 2nd half display by the Super Falcons is a template for their play on Saturday!

The connection between the midfield and attack improved, but there is still room for improvement. At times, the likes of Ayinde or Okobi should hit one-time passes instead of taking the extra touch.

The team’s defensive organization was excellent, especially on set-pieces. That’s the one area coach Dennerby is an upgrade on the past coaches of the team.

I expect the Equatorial Guineans to set up in an 8-1-1 formation after watching Oshoala, Ordega and Ajibade bearing the Zambians for pace. cheesy

Although the Super Falcons performed horribly on Sunday, the team would have to realize that a WC place is at stake and buckle up in the 2 remaining group games.
In fact, the SF could end up winning the whole event. Yes, I've seen this movie before. At the 2001 U-17 WC, Nigeria beat France 2-1 in their opening group match. The Golden Eaglets thoroughly outplayed the French team, and I believe the French team only had one attempt on target. But when both teams met in the final, the French handed our boys a 3-0 thrashing, and completely dominated that game as well. Likewise, the USA women's team lost 0-2 to Norway in their opening game at the 2008 Olympics. But guess what, the same Team USA, recovered from their poor start and went on to win the gold medal.

So, I'v not lost all hope in this team. However, the atrocious long-ball tactic has to give way to patient build-ups from the back and/or the midfield. As someone said earlier, hoofing the ball is not in the DNA of Nigerian national teams. Oshoala and Ordega would perform better if fed through balls from the midfield.

Brother Gillum just conceded the Florida Governorship race to Desantis. Congrats Gov elect Desantis.

De Santis pulled off a near miracle considering that he was behind in most polls prior to the election. Congrats to him, all the same.

I foresee the likes of Gillum and Stacey Abrams being useful, inspirational surrogates for the Dem nominee in 2020.

She hasn't yet said she is stepping down. NP is definitely running for Speaker again.
But she has indicated that she would be in the position for a long time. I interpret that as her only serving till 2020, then stepping down for another person to take over.

Chiamaka Nnadozie
Date of Birth: 18-12-2000 (17yrs)
Height: 1.79cm
Weight: 62kg
Club: Rivers Angel, Nigeria
AWCON Appearance: None
The Former Airtel U17 Competition Goalkeeper of the year is arguably the youngest and the most inform goalie in the team. However her critics claim that Nnadozie is still not ripe for the big stage after her exploit at the U20 Women World Cup. The 17yrs old goalkeeper bring some confidence between the sticks with her breathe taking saves, She is truly a goalkeeper for the future.

strength: Tall,Young and agile, Good in the air, sharp reflexes, full of confidence, excellent grip on the ball and can command her territory well.

weaknesses: She has inexperience working against her, Her Goalkicks are sometimes poor, Need encouragement.

Damn
I never knew she was over 5’10”! She’s really tall, and should be the starting keeper. Her Woman of the match performances in 3 of the 4 matches at the last U-20 tournament should be a powerful argument for her.

But..is she really 16 cheesy
