Hahahaaaa!!! Thank God you are not dead and you won't die before your time. It was obvious, the better team won. Frank Onyeka fought so much last night, ppl didn't notice him but his work rate last night was excellent contending our opponents.

So you can't remember his goalkeeping heroics against Cape Verde and DRC?

Let stop being like this, please. There is so much mediocrity being celebrated these days.

That's how I keep telling people how Osimhen isn't a good player but they won't listen.

The South African team was way better than the Super Eagles.

Oil dey your head

Unfortunately... All of you don't know the problem with this team..why did the coach decide to play a 5 Man defence.. we don't have a Good creative midfielder like the likes of Jay Jay and co . You can't tell me a country of about 200millon people can't produce a creative no 10.. iwobi can't defend.. onyeka was doing over work.. going forward..we need a Better no 10.. we have the attack and the defence at least
you are a seer! A hunt for a very creative mid fielder who can hold the ball confidently and dribble very well, should begin already.
Frank Madukwe , a classmate of mine then who never became a professional footballer, I dey hail you anywhere you are.

Joke apart, Jay Jay dey learn work from that guy. Nigeria have thousands of their likes today but the eye and the will power to get them and put them into the mainstream is what we should pray for.
Re: AFCON2023 : the 3 Best individual Player awards by rotadeco27: 7:56am On Feb 12
Iwobi is the most useless player of the tournament. Zero contribution. He was just running around like a lost soul. How he made the team is still surprising! I don't want to believe there are no better players in the local league to play that mid field. Shey we were saying it before the match that he had no business in that game.

I never thought that Eagles would even scale through the group stage let alone winning a silver.

So in your thinking it only Nigeria athletes that were tested for drugs others were not ?

You think if that was the case your Nigeria Football association will not scream out ?


Natbrowny:


Wtf are u saying. His behaviour had notin to do with those goals. He saved lots of shots frm afar that our midfielders allowed to happen.

Free d guy. HE balled well and was hungry for the trophy.

Ref didnt remove yellow cards despite opponents harsh play. Why wont he parah.

Why d ful*ck did kessie not get a yellow

See a good team is good because of it's good midfield and ours because of that dreadlocks boy with sagging socks is useless..people and our coach no too see am because onyeka was fit and covering up. Look the south Africans saw that hole but unfortunately onyeka was fit but he wasn't against the ivorians and who else noticed that the ivorians were always attacking from that onyeka wing and why will they not do drug test on that ivorian wey get 2assist..nothing person go tell me because it's not possible to be on 100% energy for 90mins

Nigeria were defending all through and it left the ivorian playing their game confidently. Such game will not let them get tired easily and even when they are tired it will not really show because Nigeria style of play makes ivory coast feel relax in playing their game just the way they want it. Ivory coast played nothing but a Positioning football but your coach don't know how to tackle that kind of style.

That is one of the Nigerians problem. They kill talent because they lack foresight. After taking wrong decision they will start looking for who to blame for their own mistake. Nigerians don't like to hear the truth, they can crucify you for doing so especially if it doesn't favor their wrong doing

If you've been watching Brighton in the premier league, you would have known he was going to be our biggest problem. Too bad we had a coach who wasn't prepared.

If there's one, he may not have connections or money to bribe his way in

Iwobi should retire or better not be invited again. He won't be missed in the team

You are observing nonsence.Onyeka had
the best work rate for nigeria, you see him everywhere. Ola Aina position was the culprit and loophole for ivorians to penetrate our box 18 often and often.

sweet and swift reply. Many people whom watches their football on nairaland don't know this. The coach dashed ivory coast this trophy with his over defensive approach. At least even if aribo was out of form what happened to Ihenacho? I offed gen immediately they equalized and slept off

The Nigerian team was a team of stars and good ones at that. But it lacked cohesion, thanks to the useful midfield. To make it worse at the final, the team was so edgy. Too many fouls at the first few minutes of play. And after the goal, they went into full defence mode against a confident and very attacking Ivorian side. I think the better team got the medal.

Is Like nigeria πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬ players held the prophecy of yul dat dey will win comfortably dat why dey were lacklustre

Which world cup? Africa world cup abi. So you think if okocha is still playing coaches will not bench him with that is dribble he will just be dribbling anyhow and end up balluing the ball over the bar and laff over it. Football have really Change and that is why some people don't like neymar despite him scoring goals and move d ball at times. And u are talking of okocha. If you have mentioned olise, he would have been better
