What the difference between European cup and world cup... Only one team outside Europe have appeared in the final in the past 17 yrs... The last WC had an all European team semi final so as the 2010 and 2006 WC... No south American team or African team or north American team or Asian team can match the top European teams... Invite them to the euros and non will pass quarter finals

Abegi!! FIFA will do anything to favor Europe
Europe takes 14 slot during this last AFCON while South America took just 5. Think of it bro

I wish Messi all the best

andrew444:
Bros I hope so but it won't happen ,I don't trust Argentina

I’m just being optimistic. The expectation is low dz time around

andrew444:
Argentina off to semi final of the copa America

That should be their last bustop

Argentina knows how to get past Brazil. This maybe Messi year

TheSuperNerd:
Post-Match tots- #NGAGUI series

1. First of all, I got to say we have quite a strong defence. If I were a coach of any of the other top teams, I would be quite concerned about coming up against the Super Eagles defence. They are very solid but still far from perfect no doubt.
The way the defence limited the guinean attack led by Sory Kaba of elche cf and Kamano of Bordeaux shows rugged organisation and a determination to get to every second ball fought for in the box and around it. The Guineans had no clean view of our goal and the closest they came was from that Kamano freekick. Balogun did well battling aerially against the giant Kaba and Omeruo was on something stronger than Steroids today. This was beast Omeruo we saw even before he crowned it with an intelligent goal.

How Omeruo has patiently worked his way to break the once heralded Oyibo wall partnership at the heart of our defence is truly one to admire. His move to la liga and his massive improvements and showings in the colors of Leganes have really gifted us a Beast at the back and in the air.
There is something about playing regularly in a good... No.. not just good... But a high quality league.

The Supernerd is back!!

Super eagles is the first team to qualify for the knockout stages

darkelf:
Shey I told you guys we would struggle against guinea especially after the team bonus issue

Una don dey see am now?

See true talk from dz one. Guinea weh don deh very lucky this far

Dz our captain na something else

TheGoodJoe:
It is just funny I showed you a match performance of Thiago and you want to use a career clip to compare. Bring a Xavi vs clip and you will see his game relied more on control than Eagle eyed through passes.

Xavi vs real

TheGoodJoe:
Very funny. You are taking a compilation of Xavi’s career to compare with a game of Thiago. Lol.

That says a lot.

Wait how old do you think Thiago is? Thiago is yet to achieve wat Xavi achieved at Thiago present age. Get me Thiago compilation thus far. I’m waiting

TheGoodJoe:
Not about defence splitting passing but controlling the game technically with short simple metronomic passes.

Enjoy Xavi bro

TheGoodJoe:
Watch the little genius Thiago Alcantara at work.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AAZeILxQ_r8

So disappointed in what you posted. Where’s the defense splitting pass Xavi posses? Thiago doesn’t even have Xavi’s movement on and off the ball

TheGoodJoe:

Even Barcelona Rafinaha has as much Thiago. So wat are u saying? Are you trying to compare Xavi achievement with Thiago?

TheGoodJoe:
Thiago Alcantara, Xavi kind of player.

Na wa oo. Xavi kind of player and can’t command a starting role in the Spanish national team. All this players u are mentioning are not as good as fabregas or santi at their peak talkless of Xavi. Euro 2008 best player

See, I love ronaldinho as much as I love Messi but u can’t just overlook Xavi quality. D last time Barcelona won the ucl was Xavi final season. Xavi is d only player to have make 4 assist in a single el Classico game. Wat dinho will do in 10secs before taking a player out, Xavi will do it in 3secs with a single turn to take 3 or more out.

Go and watch Xavi euro 2008 performance.

forgiveness:
It seems you don't know what you are talking about. You haven't seen any Ronaldinho after he retired but we are still seeing many Xavis till date.

Tell me one Xavi

BascoVanVeli:
[b]Xavi was not better than Yaya Toure [b]IMO and he definitely not on Ronaldinho's level. Roni was must watch TV he gave us the best of both worlds, trophies and entertainment

Chai! Nothing I no go see for dz thread

Earthquake3:
My African team of the tournament so far

---------------Chidozie(NIG)


Okeke(NIG) O. Ebi(NIG) Johnson(CAR) Awona(CAR)


N, Schout(CAR) Chikwelu(NIG) Abena(CAR)


Onguene(CAR) Kgalatna(S. AFR) Ordega(NIG)

.

Dz list is incomplete without this lady Ajara Nchout

U guys should try and check Cameroon winning goal today. That girl is awesome . I wish we have her in our team

Germany

breezy147:
I think this is just your perspective based on how you view South American teams as tough on the pitch.

But in reality, European teams are more technical and have a better head to head than them.

E.g Chile could not beat Germany in the last confed cup final, Germany defeats Argentina and Brazil recently, even us (Nigeria) beat Venezuela 3 - 1 in our last friendly game with them.

Lol. The Venezuela u face way back in 2012. Portugal have been so lucky of recent. Go check their h2h against South American opponent

forgiveness:
The coach caused us this game. Tufiakwa!

Abegii

Earthquake2:
The coach shouldn't go for a win against France he should play 4-5-1

But knowing clueless Dennerby he would play 4-3-3 with non existent midfielders

Dz guy u get problem. How is he clueless?? When last did our female team get maximum 3 point in a World Cup at this level?

Line up

TheGoodJoe:
The EPL was an upgrade of their careers.

Same way Ronaldo,Bale and Suarez step up their career by joining the Spanish giants

TheGoodJoe:
I will not rate them as the best because of the high technical play of the Spanish league. But when it comes to grade of players, you find the best players in the EPL on like Spain where the crust of quality lie in Barcelona and Real Madrid.

You’re so funny bro!
Carzola,D.silva,Juan mata,Reira,abeloa,Alonso,Reyes,Toress,Reina,de gea, aguero,d.costa,coutois,j.navas,michu and much more

killsmith:
You're ignorant for using trophies which is a result of the collective effort of a football team to judge a single player.

Going by your logic. Fabian grosso or hernandez of France is better than marcelo because marcelo hasn't won a world cup.


I'll stop the argument here.

Bye dummy!

You’re the real dummy bro. You were the one who brought up achievements first

You’re just so dumb thinking everyone is like u
