Second half is underway.

The Tunisians throw themselves forward but we got it covered.

TheSuperNerd:
Yes. Igboke. Thanks. I actually was gonna type Igboke but I got confused. Lol


Odinaka plays for Sporting Lagos.

Yea, it can be confusing to many due to its resemblance to the more common one Igbokwe.

So far, Odinaka has looked like a big improvement on Igboke. Sporting Lagos will make some money from him.

Dem wan scatter Egbon Bameyi's legs... lol

The Tunisian #10 goes into the book for that rough tackle

Our boys touches on ball is like the ball is over inflated like to hard for them to hit

Our DM, Caleb Ochedikwu (#4) hasn't impressed me so far. He covers grounds and is available to cover for his teammates but his passing is atrocious so far. Seems like he is wearing lead boots or something. Needs to get his head in the game more on the ball playing aspect. He is defending decently though and marking okay.

I'm suprised he benched Israel ayuma for him, a far more assured player on the ball, not impressed with this caleb dude so far

While Israel Ayuma is a far more assured player in the middle, he is no CDM and he is kinda lightweight in duels as seen from the Wafu B tournament that we won.

The fact that Oliseh is starting is partly why Ayuma can't start. We need a hardworking rock in that middle base.

75mins on the clock. Flying Eagles still up 1-0.

Arierhi Kparobo tries another shot but is blocked.

Yushau Armiyau taking am important yellow card for the team.

Bameyi with a vital headed clearance.

The lads are fighting hard, defending stoutly and pushing forward but the 50-50 decisions going Tunisia's ways these dying mins is not good.

Ifeanyi Harcourt is Golden!!!! Unbeatable Banzuke!!!

What a stop!

89mins subs in

Tahir Maigana (21) in for Clinton Jeptha (7)

Precious Benjamin of Hoffenheim (12) in for Kparobo (9)

Nigeria on the offensive in these final 5 mins of added time... the subs have kept the intensity going so far.

Final change.

Suleiman Alabi Jojo (#8 ) in for Goal scorer and potential match winner, Auwal Ibrahim (15).

Final score
Nigeria 1-0 Tunisia

Thanks for this,

Why do I have this feelings that the ref is being bias towards us

FT. We win the 3 pts.

Nigeria starts well. Now we can settle into the rest of the tournament.

I was just praying that what happened in the Zimbabwe match will not repeat itself.

The ref na clown. Cancelled two clear penalties for both sides.

The 9ja goalie saves us 2pts but his kicks are horrible for his height and size
They won but so much for the coach to do considering their next opponent Morocco
Shocking our striker was silent cuz the mid field didn't exist no ball holder
My man of the match could have been #3 Okoro but I give it to the goalie who denied that equaliser
Wish them a good outing against Morroco

The actual ball holding midfielder was benched today. Israel Ayuma.

Divine Oliseh started well and did provide some moments from midfield but faded as the game wore on. As he faded, so did whatever ball holding quality we ought to show. He had to be subbed off eventually.
