isoryt😀 make we dey watch…sha make dem no deduct their 3 points…cos if them deduct that 3 pts , they will award it to Lesotho, and lesotho will move to 9pts with their next home game against SA…that will make them more desperate to frustrate SA

footballing talent has never been hereditary. Offsprings of footballers just have the misfortune, if i can call it that, of insane expectations if they follow the path of their fathers and in some cases related family. They are always seen as an extension and not as a whole other personality.

to qualify via playoffs we must amass enough points to be among the second best 4 teams, now we have 7 points and lets say we win all our remaining 4matches we will end up with 19points…and already in the top 4 second best teams table, i can see 6 teams already on 12 to 15points
Gabon 15pts
senegal 12pts
Cameroon 12points
Namibia 12pts
Comoros 12pts
Mozambique 12pts
B/faso 11pts
Tanzania 8pts
Rwanda 9pts

these are teams on second place…the question is will they drop points while Nigeria finishes on second place with 19pts?
We will qualify automatically if we are to win all our remaining matches, we would not need second best play off.

Those 3points are gone …u can take dt to d bank
And if fifa decides to do ojoro ,wc I doubt in dis case…its very simple;we can just hire a good player(mercenary) from France 🇫🇷,Brazil or Argentina 🇦🇷 to play for us,since FIFA doesn’t mind countries fielding ineligible players going forward

Most of these people you mentioned were not successful both father and son,except for Alcantaras

But you left out the two families who were probably the best examples when u talk about father and son footballers who were elite,the Madinis and Ayew's families,
Andrew Ayew might not be as good as his father but still above average.

Rules are rules, there is no two way about it.
If FIFA somehow ignores or fails to deduct the 3 points, Nigeria or whichever country that qualified will take FIFA to CAS,the case is simple.

Lilian Thuram and his son Marcus, average? And yes I forgot about the Ayews, absolutely great example as well as the Maldini's. Diego Simeone's sons have come of age and I forgot Fernando Redondo's son too.

According to Jose Peseiro's assistant Victor Osimhen ought to be in then EPL and be doing good things.

Per his statement, Osimhen doesn't talk much, but does his talking by scoring goals in matches.

Recounting his experience he said...🎤

“One day before the game, Victor had a bit of a fight with Emmanuel Dennis in a seven-against-seven exercise. This player was relaxing a little bit, a bit chilled. This was normal because there was a game the next day. But Victor wanted more. He was so demanding”, the coach said.

“We were a little bit surprised by his attitude. It was good. We liked it. But we thought he should calm down, maybe. The next day, he scored four goals.” They came in what was a record-breaking 10-0 victory over Sao Tome and Principe in the summer of 2023.

“After scoring his four goals, suddenly we had a penalty. Everybody expected Victor to grab the ball for the fifth. The poker. But no, Victor gave the ball to Dennis, the team-mate he had fought with the day before who had never scored for the national team.

“This is an example that tells you a lot about Victor Osimhen. Instead of having five goals, he preferred to give his team-mate his first goal. Others like to talk in the dressing room. Victor is a leader through his behaviour, through his work, through his example”

Botafogo beat PSG 1-0. UCL winners humbled. They have it all to do now vs Seattle Sounders in the last game which I know they will win anyway.

Botafogo isnt even as strong as they were in the time of Pele when both them and santos ruled in Brazil and contributed the most players to the Brazillian NT.

The Brazillian league has always been strong since the 40s, 50s. The Original league of talents they remain till today.
