Osimhen should not allow himself to be distracted.

This eulogizing should come at the end when the trophy is lifted

I pray Dangote, Otedola, Adenuga and Co should not come with their promises till after trophy has been won. Once they come, Oti lo.....the next thing is to crash out

That guy is very good, if he was fortunate to play in Okocha's days in the super eagles he would have embarrassed teams with goals.
I feel sorry for him for the fact that he has to hustle everything for himself.
I pray we discover a creative midfielder before Osimhen retire.

Onana would have save those two goals.

The two shots from Lookman were all weak.

But rigobert song is a myopic man
But Cameroon had no shot on goal. How would they have won?

What do you think about our coach?

The Coach is too conservative,though it's been working for him and the team so far, however, I still think we can play much more with flair considering the talents we have in that team ..

tiswell:
man na average player, Africa deserves better
I like the guy too but I am not impressed. He is lacking something. He does not have that die hard tenacity that Ronaldo de lima of Brazil had . Once that guy touches the ball and looks at the net ? His trajectory is to get past anything in sight. You can jam his leg with trailer or SUV or 2 by 4 he will shake it off and continue running and dribbling. He will only stop to feel the pain after the ball is at the back of the net. This Osimhen he falls down easily and is easily dispossessed

Point of Correction:Lookman didn't score twice in each half he only scored one apiece in each half.

Una don start.
But when the British hail their own players now, u call it overhype.
I wish him well and pray he continues to achieve greater things. Nigerians are delighted.

Good comments from you!
We must continue to motivate them by our Support - Physically done by Govnr Ambode,J J Okocha,Chief Odegbami,etc and Financial Support - as NBILLIONS of Money owed the Super Eagles was recently paid by President Tinubu - all goes a long way to give them the impetus to WIN this Nation's Cup ( Africa World Cup) !
God is on our Side- I wish them well!

As an examiner, do you score a candidate without him making points?

He made the points for the duration of judgement.

Just hope he becomes more accurate to maintain it.

Good luck to him

Osimhen was really impressive yesterday.
His movements on and off the ball was topnotch.
He deserves any positive nickname he gets.


On another news, there was a country in west Africa. They have already prepared memes to mock us, hoping that we will lose to Cameroon.

But in 2024, "we noh dey gree for anybody"
well said, this na just wetin dey.

Bro, there is noting mediocre or worrisome here. Players like Salah and Sadio Mane are there, but he deserves it above them.

He knows how to create goals and bring high energy to a team.

Osimhen is one of the top 3 rated strikers in Europe and the world before the start of this tournament.

He is recently rated as the 3rd most valuable stricker in the world currently after on Haarland and Mbakpe. He is amongst the top 10 best players in the world currently.

Football is a technical game, and not just abut skills and dribbling capacity. There are seasons strikers are held in high esteem, like Marko Vanbasten, Cruff, Shearer, Yekini, Harry Kane, Lewandowski, Drogba etc.

Do you think Napoli can dream of winning serie A without the presence of an Osimhen?

He creates a lot of fear to opponents, and that is why Super Eagles might win this tournament.

not all english players get overhyped


besides, england is far ahead of nigeria in terms of world cup performances and individual player achievements .
