Ndidi was missed. Onyeka covered good defensively and was fantastic with his forward drives, but his passing range is a let down. He is also not a genuine controller.

zicky:
iwobi should make way because of the Bokoharam football aka tournament football Nigeria played, oga iwobi is not the problem of this team, get good CM and Dlp and push iwobi forward. If we drop iwobi na Aribo we go use?

COOL10:



I have never been a fan of Mourinho, but that man has won a lot of trophies with his "negative tactics." That he's having a tough time now, doesn't mean you should downplay his efforts.


I have been a Barca fan all my life, and possession football is my forte, but calling Peseiro's tactics a fluke is like putting a dent on the efforts of those players, who worked so hard to get to the final.


Some countries played good football and got eliminated. Will you call them flukes too? The South Africa that outplayed us, where are they today?

CornOak:
Just imagine that intentional elbow foul from Kessie on Zaidu, no foul, no yellow, no VAR check.

CAF just destroyed what they built from the start of this tourney.

Shame.

Zellas:
Remove Chukwueze and iwobi for simon and yusuf. This is a very easy match to win

Goke7:


we need ball-playing midfielders, that's why we can't boss games, and is putting too much pressure on our defence and keeper. Let's not be sentimental about this Iwobi, that team will never improve if we continue this way. we need midfielders who can impose themselves on our game. Is Iwobi that kind of player?

Nwabali had no business conceding two goals today, it's unfair to that guy who had saved us so many times in this tournament.

mrwilliams9:
Our midfield needs to be worked on big time. We lost this game because we couldn’t hold the ball.

Meliforme:
I said it before that none of our wingers will start at Royal Antwerp, considering how Royal Antwerp likes to play.

Meliforme:
Nwakali plays in the lowly Chaves, and yet guys from Mamelodi Sundows were knocking our super stars around, and we were lucky to escape.

gustav25:
Unworthy lead but football is a game of 2 halves .... Haller owes me 2 goals

Barryseal:

I feel you're majoring on the minor here. I never said the fans were responsible for the loss. It was just a foot note in my comment which you're blowing up for reasons I have no idea.
My initial comment was that the defence by passed the midfield and lumped it up to Osimhen majority of the game. We had no control whatsoever in the match as a result, we lost.

Stillwater10:


Our wingers were the biggest disappointment this final. This tactics relied so much on the wingers to hold their own and push attacks. Abeg we no get wingers. See wetin adringa play for CIV.

TheGoodJoe:


I have not changed my mind. I have stood by it for decades. Parked bus is fluke. No matter the titles won with it, it is fluke. Whether Mourinho won trophies, doe snot change that it was fluky reigns.

Mujtahida:

The midfield issue is rather the side note to your comment. The substance which you have hammered on repeatedly is the over-confidence of the fans

safarigirl:


Where will you get the midfielders you think you need?

Like someone said, you pope want a Rolls Royce with Camry budget. You need a coach that knows how to fix players in the right roles.

Everytime Iwobi this and Iwobi that, this was the same way you people did not allow Mikel's name to rest until he retired and ran away from your issues. You people will use your bad mouth to attack players that give their best to the team, then when they ghost you lot you will call them ingrates.

Please, sit down and write letter to NFF so they can give you the midfielders you think you deserve and will be willing to play for you. Until then, you will manage Iwobi like that. He will not die for you people to be happy.

Goke7:


Let's continue to deceive ourselves, we have been figured out, from today no African team will dread the Eagles, kotinu

forgiveness:


I don hear. He control but his service is in the Portuguese Liga. Weldone.

Curtisaxel17:
To be honest, we didn't deserve to be in the finals. This team has plenty of work to do. The coach has been riding his luck so far but everyday no be Christmas.

1. Peseiro's strategy is poor. Just score one and defend for your lives. Very lazy way to coach. No backup plan in case you concede, nothing.

2. Osimhen has been below par. I dare anybody to point at a single good thing that he did throughout today. Just causing fouls and limping around aimlessly. Ighalo was a FAR better and more impactful striker for us than Osimhen. Full stop.

Odunayaw:
What did Ighalo do in the semi-final against Algeria in 2019?

Mujtahida:

Teams will sidon and just let him to be throwing passes from deep abi

Curtisaxel17:
Nwabali is not who we think he is. He has potential, but we are not out of the woods yet in terms of our GK search. That first goal wouldn't have happened if he was correctly positioned.

The search must continue.

safarigirl:


LMAO

Abeg abeg abeg.

From today ke? Who dey fear una since? Tunisia kicked you out in Round of 16 in the last AFCON, that shambolic Ghanaian team stopped you from getting a World Cup ticket. Guinea Bissau won you on home turf.

Is that the dreaded Super Eagles abi e get another team wey you dey talk of? You people are deluded sha. Una wey chop two goals from Guinea just before this AFCON, na who you dey call dreaded?

Peseiros really gave you people mouth, because Super Eagles has not been dreaded in at least 8 years.

Come off your high horse, this tournament changes nothing about the team. You people even overachieved, which is why all these nonsense complaints are irritating me. Who dash una silver before this tournament started?

Better know your level, there is nothing dreaded about the Super Eagles.

forgiveness:


Osimhen was involved in 90% of our goals. Give him kudos.

He gave Ekong the opportunity to win player of the tournament. If he took all those penalties by himself, na 3 goals and player of the tournament straight.

Na Paseiro kill game.

Meliforme:
Ndidi is way ahead of Onyeka in the game of passing.
