Bergkamp the football brain on that man. Blessed with one of the best touches of all time.

Bergkamp's goal against Argentina. My goodness

Between him and Zidane I really can't tell who's got a better first touch. That goal against Argentina was all about his incredible first touch. I often say that if I'm a coach teaching young boys, dem go practice their first touch tire to the point they will hate me.

Watch old clips of Brazil at the WC from 1958-1970 especially 1970 chai joy go nearly choke you from watching 'sexy penetrating passes' grin Even the misses were beauties to watch. I weep for Brazilian fans having to cope watching modern day scam artists.

Mujtahida:
That match against Italy - with Zico and Dr Socrates in full, free flow and the defeat is tagged the day football died.

I like beautiful football but I've never been a fan of Brazil. I like their players individually though.

Zidane was more of fluidity of movement almost like a ballerina but Bergkamp's touches would absolutely leave you stranded.

Brazilian football represents what football should be. There were the best. Ironically that's why I never liked them as a team.

They forgot who they were and one can hardly recognize that distinct samba rhythm in their football. It's gone. I pray they find that spark. Machine football should not win.

Now instead of such beauty, they are eating cold statistics.

Bergkamp is known for scoring crazy goals,sometimes you will even think it's a fluke.

The heavy loss against Denmark no let person enjoy that tournament again till final.

Why do our local coaches like shouting, and overloading the players with instructions on the pitch,
Everybody on the technical bench go just de shout shout, even the players won't have freedom to express themselves

FT Morocco 0-0 Nigeria.

Both sides climb to 4 pts. Nigeria still yet to concede at this tournament.

Next game is vs Kenya on May 7.

Not much excitement in the 1st half. Bameyi played well, the man really tried. I think Harcourt was assured too and calm, Oliseh was Bright, those two boys did well.
Bameyi looks really good as a CB

This is my problem with u20 and below we always win with jam body and much more physicality because we’re grown

But when those guys grow to match us in size in a few years and include their technical play

Omo that’s why we can never catch up because you pur football doesn’t have identity if you exclude jam body and kick and follow

They played against a tough opponent. Even at the Africa U20 level, Morocco still fielded European based players. It may not be entertaining based on the tactics of the coach. I think draw is a fair result.

It seems you have not followed our junior level football of old, before these goons took over our football. We have been known for playing good football in junior levels. Watch Siasia's sides. Musa Abdullahi's sides. John Obu and others.

Watch this clip of Manu Garba's side


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ad4UXxijzdY

We are not a jam body side at Junior levels. Poor selection and preparation is affecting us.

You can debate their ages but you can't call Musa Abdullahi a jam body coach. His teams always played refreshing offensive football. That is the context of discussion.

YouTube Highlights of the Rangers vs Celtic derby where Dessers scored his 25th goal of the season.

If my math is correct, this is the 8th or 9th goal that he's scored with his weaker left foot. That's an incredible number of goals for someone who's naturally right footed.
