Lol... He played 433/4231 in the first half and till 60mins or so but went right back to 442 with his changes. The man will rather die on the altar of 442. 🤣🤣

You never sabi Peseiro. He is indeed a dinosaur.

I am not watching Senegal vs Cameroun but I can see that Senegal just scored from my match notifications and I know as well that Emeka's GK, Onana is in goal for Cameroun.

Wahala no dey finish.

You are Right about Onana being the Keeper,
But it was a PK Senegal used to score

Old habits die hard.

But something needs to do be done about this poor defense [and our prosecution] of setpieces.

Injury knocks out Osimhen from 2026 World Cup qualifiers

Victor Osimhen will most likely miss next month’s 2026 World Cup qualifiers against Lesotho and Zimbabwe after he suffered a second degree hamstring injury on international duty.

Reports from Italy said the injury the Napoli striker suffered while playing against Saudi Arabia in a friendly in Portugal Friday will rule him out of action for between four and six weeks.

The World Cup qualifiers are scheduled from November 13, just about the time he will likely begin rehabilitation from this latest injury setback.

Osimhen left the Super Eagles training camp Sunday to return to Italy after a scan was done on the injury.

He will also miss Serie A matches against Verona, Milan, Salernitana and Empoli as well as the UEFA Champions League trip to Union Berlin.

In November 2020, Osimhen was sidelined for several weeks after he dislocated his shoulder playing for the Super Eagles against Sierra Leone in Benin City.

Our defence has to be so set up in a way that we limit the opponents to few or very little shots on target against us. Compactness is key.

Right now we are so porous that every shot directed at our goal is likely converted.

As for setpieces, well... if Peseiro added it to his training menu, we would see the result. Set piece specialty is another weapon on the offensive but it seems Jpes isn't taking it so seriously yet.

elunico:


The last time we had a defense like that was at the WC. The oyinbo wall really protected Uzoho then.

oloriooko:
As long as Uzoho is in goal for 9ja, we are minus 1, i remember the look Ndidi gave him when he scored for Saudi, it was a 'you are useless' look
Well victor boniface has come to stay in that team strengthening our attack
but i dare say i cannot see any impressive technical input Paseiro has brought to this team walahi, he's just lucky with the crop of individually talented players available now, Rohr did far better than this

TheSuperNerd:
Frank Onyeka fizzled out from the moment Onyedika left the pitch on 61mins. His shine as seen in the first half dimmed as Aribo was now deployed to the middle to pair Onyeka since Lookman had also come in same time Onyedika was pulled out.

This meant more defensive duties and less charges forward for Onyeka since Aribo is there now. Did they compliment each other in the middle between minute 61 and Minute 75? Not so much.


Then on 75mins, Iwobi came in for Aribo. Same story. Onyeka had to stick to the role Onyedika had vacated.

There are players who play better when paired or played with the right partners in a department or on same side on the pitch.

The reason we saw an Onyeka goal today was Onyedika's cruise control from deep permitting Onyeka to make those late runs forward and unleash his ball striking.

This quality disappeared almost with Aribo and Iwobi moved/brought in alongside Onyeka in the middle on 61 and 75mins respectively.

PERSONNEL MATTERS BUT PERSONNEL SYNERGY MATTERS MORE.

If this is true, then he wouldn't be PLAYING the AFCON.

Because he is compliant to all suggestions without question ❓ from his paymasters in the NFF who probably share his salary with him .

Please is Chukwueze injured? Osimhen injury came at the right time. He needs that break to cool his head from all these Napoli tension. Make Kvara and Simeone step up!
