Football experts, why was there no extra time and they went to penalty shootout immediately?

South Africa (Mamelodi Sundowns FC), most hated team by Generator Republic
Yes xenophob boy. The 3rd place is Where they deserve to be. 😂
While the first place is reserve for "Generator republic"

See you in the world cup qualifiers, we'll be fielding Chippa United instead - Mamelodi Sundowns FC was too much for your Europe based stars. Heart attacks all over the place 🇿🇦🏆😂😂😂😂😂

Facetoface:
Can anyone explain why they didn't play 30mins extra time before penalty shootout?
It's a waste of time... CAF decided that third place matches do not deserve extra time... So after 90mins, it is straight to PK..

But the extra time rule still applies for the Final...


But the extra

Congo deserves to lose.

One - they were too wasteful in front of goal.

Two - Their useless captain wanted to take the glory of taking the last penalty kick for the glory.
Wizza who was brimming with confidence was on the field, the captain never allowed him to take it.
Good captain leads from the front, and not from the back.
Wizza already took a penalty and scored na.

The Réf is tired and frustrated. Over 15 times, the réf will think this is a goal, and DRC will bludgeon it. He knew if 90 mins, they could not convert goal, nothing will happen in 30 minutes. Even me watching, my tiredness was tired

It's part of the modification of the rules. Since third place is a dead rubber game, dragging it to extra time before pk will be wasting of resources.

Super Eagles should take note of this match.



Take your chances seriously and finish off the Elephants before the final whistle.


Osimhen should try to keep his headers low. He keeps making wild headings like an amateur footballer. Lookman should be up and doing.


What makes losing a game more painful is when you waste many chances.
You are a careful observer. Osimhen has missed way too many headers that ordinarily, he should have buried. Especially in Napoli colours. He can't argue that he doesn't get good service from the other players.
Did he leave his scoring mojo at Naples?

He has got bring his A game for this finals, else...o ti lor!

Haha! This South Africa Keeper has done it again!

Normally the guy is good sha, no doubt... na just say when e reach Naija turn we humble am grin
My thought before their match with us, I told my people that the guys is good but Naija guys were going to messed him up, especially if they were banking on his ability to catch penalty and that was exactly what played out eventually.

No need of extra time. It only Afcon I guess that still play 3rd place matches.
Even world cup, morrocco played Croatia 🇭🇷

It because it is the world cup.



Copa America, Euros and Asian cups have ditched it.


I guess it Afcon and may be Concacaf Gold cup then World cup that still have 3rd place matches

No.

Wizza took penalty after the captain had missed.
But I don't see any reason why we should blame the captain for this. Even if Wizza had taken the penalty before the captain, the captain will still miss his own anytime in this life he wishes to take his.

South Africans must be fooling themselves if they think Banana Banana deserves the 3rd place bronze medal 'cause they don't ! Their qualification out of the group stage was aided by Namibia 'cause they wouldn't have made it out of that group if Namibia wasn't there ! SA are quite familiar with Nambia,so they were able to beat them. SA game against Morocco had some elements of poor officiating in favour of Banana Banana;their first goal was a clear offside goal ! Against Cape Verde ? Go and watch that game again and tell me if a team like SA deserved to advance at the expense of such a very good Cape Verdean team. They were equally assisted by the referee/VAR in the semi final game against Nigeria. Nigeria ordinarily, should have won that game within the regulation time with a scoreline of 3-0 or more but for the poor officiating !

A team like Banana Banana does not deserve to represent Africa at the world stage;they are not good enough. We could all see their level of mediocrity against the Congolese this evening. If not that the Congolese were simply unlucky,they should have won that game within 90 minutes with nothing less than 3 goals scoreline !

South Africa is not a powerhouse in African football. My teams of the tournament:

1. Nigeria - remains GIANT of African football.
2. Cape Verde - they play excellent football
3.Egypt - very good,they were simply unlucky.
4.Mauritania - those guys are ballers !
5.Senegal- the Lions are never a pushover !

South Africa are just pretenders,they still have a long way to go in football !
Wena o bua mmao.... this is just hate. You should stick volleyball or something. That Osiheman is fraud... so is the rest of Nigeria "Immigrants" players....

Be honest with yourself, deep down you know southie will not lose to Congo, you’re just saying Congo will win because of your dislike for South Africa
I have no reason to dislike SA.
