Nigeria's First Choice Keeper: Who Do You Prefer Okoye Or Uzoho? by robosky02(op): 8:07am On Mar 26, 2022
Francis Uzoho against Ghana showed a lot of Composure, command and reflex.
He has even been once Nigeria's number one at the world cup Russia 2018.


But of recent Maduka Okoye has been preferred until that slip up against Tunisia at the AFcoN that knocked Nigeria out and called to question his competence.

So based on yesterday's top notched performance of Uzoho especially his composure in the face of hot tension.

Should Uzoho be returned as Nigeria's First choice keeper ?

So guys who do you prefer Okoye or Uzoho?

He's my man of the match.

Okoye is Instagram keeper, the ladies man but very business minded fine boy

Uzoho face can scare a striker. Very composed

Both are good. The pressure Nigeria puts on them is just too much they can barely concentrate.

Why did you think we leave the Afcon so early ?

None of the above ,
One is a celebrity keeper, and the other one is an over aged Keeper

Uzoho!!!

He was more composed and matured between the post.

Okoye too is trying,but he still lacks confidence,which are always obvious during matches. Ladies might prefer him though.

I wish super eagles all the best in Abuja.

He did well. Our defenders too came into the game smoking hot.

In all, we should see off the Black stars of Ghana on Tuesday to secure the ticket to the mundial.
Re: Nigeria's First Choice Keeper: Who Do You Prefer Okoye Or Uzoho? by Sheriman(m):
Nigerians go soon condemned that Uzoho it just a matter of time.
Abii no be all these Nigerians I know??

For now, the duos are just being managed and can't be compared to past super eagles goal keeper
Re: Nigeria's First Choice Keeper: Who Do You Prefer Okoye Or Uzoho? by jojofola: 8:59am On Mar 26, 2022
Uzoho only needs to move to a big team to maximize his potentials
Re: Nigeria's First Choice Keeper: Who Do You Prefer Okoye Or Uzoho? by richmanrichard: 8:59am On Mar 26, 2022
Uzoho.whats difference between akpei/agbim/okoye? Uzoho is miles better.
Re: Nigeria's First Choice Keeper: Who Do You Prefer Okoye Or Uzoho? by seunaj: 8:59am On Mar 26, 2022
Uzoho for now, that guy saved our ass yesterday. But I believe that Maduka hasn't been tested enough in the super eagles, let's give him more chance while we keep Uzoho for the qualifier for now.
Re: Nigeria's First Choice Keeper: Who Do You Prefer Okoye Or Uzoho? by optimusprime2(m):
To be honest Maduka is a very good keeper, I will not underate him in any way... (people really need to watch this guy perform on club level, and be proud he is Nigerian).

Uzoho had a stellar game yesterday.

At the end of the day, there are reasons why Maduka is the number 1 choice.

**Edited**
Before people crucify Maduka due to the AFCON error, people quickly forget Uzoho's 2018 worldcup slip between Argentina and Nigeria; Messi's goal should have been saved (a keeper with sharper reflexes should have made a supreme save, I.e prime Enyeama made countless saves in similar situations, from the same Messi!)... Had Uzoho made that save, who knows, perhaps Argentina would have been knocked out in the group stages.

Bottom line, all keepers make mistakes no matter how good they are.
Re: Nigeria's First Choice Keeper: Who Do You Prefer Okoye Or Uzoho? by Megatrix: 9:00am On Mar 26, 2022
From what I saw yesterday, I will definitely go with Uzoho
Re: Nigeria's First Choice Keeper: Who Do You Prefer Okoye Or Uzoho? by Richy4(m):
There was one shocking save I saw yesterday....That would have been a goal..... and many other minor ones...He tuned on through out the match... His confident level is 81% based on my amateur assessment...He is very Good
Re: Nigeria's First Choice Keeper: Who Do You Prefer Okoye Or Uzoho? by Elidrisy20: 9:00am On Mar 26, 2022
They're both good keepers, the only difference is one is human and the other is monkey
Re: Nigeria's First Choice Keeper: Who Do You Prefer Okoye Or Uzoho? by Exkandayee(m): 9:01am On Mar 26, 2022
Uzoho is good right time,I don't know why he's not our first keeper,he proved himself yesterday,but ehh both Ghana and Nigeria disgraced themselves
Re: Nigeria's First Choice Keeper: Who Do You Prefer Okoye Or Uzoho? by IamPatriotic(m): 9:01am On Mar 26, 2022
Uzoho is better, but Okoye is finer. However, since it's not a beauty paegent for Mr. Mancho, I think Eguavoen should stick to Uzoho.
Re: Nigeria's First Choice Keeper: Who Do You Prefer Okoye Or Uzoho? by DEMARCO1: 9:01am On Mar 26, 2022
Uzoho for Sure...he should be our official number one..
