. Do we play back 3

Did you watch the back of your tv?

latuntop:
Struggling to win with a goal to nil is a big red flag.

This match was played at home.

I don't see anything so impressive about them or anything that worth jubilating for.

Anyways, kudos to them for winning.....

Nigerian are taking Rwanda squad for granted

What matches are remaining for Nigeria;
Which countries? Home or away?

ARISHEM:
High profile match!

Should we even address our opponents as high profile in the first place.

With the situation Nigeria puts herself, isn't it high profile now??

If Naija drew this match as first match, would we be worried as we were today if they drew?

So, it's high profile, since the super refused to be super!

They tried...
Congratulations to us

FT 1-0

They tried, but why do they struggle to score a 2nd goal. We just manage score 1 & relax. That was what cost us 2 valuable pts against Zimbabwe with a last minute equaliser. Else we for dey 2nd now with 12pts.

They didn't try, they need to do better.

The group is very easy and still Super Eagles are still messing up, they need to do better.

An abysmal performance from a national side with 2 consecutive African POTY within their ranks (Osimhen and Lookman).
Let them prove their quality by carrying the whole team to glory...single handedly.
CR7 did it with Portugal in 2013, Dwight Yorke did it with Trinidad in 2005. And more recently, Antony Davies did it with Canada in 2022.

We don't need osimhen

With this kind of lackadaisical attitudes of this Super eagles team, South Africa will so beat and embarrass Nigeria on Tuesday. No creative midfield. The players are just running around like secondary school players.

Let’s go beat South Africa on Tuesday.

We have to play better than this if that's gonna happen...

They will never change! Unfortunate! Even the coach is not technically sound as I thought. I have given him enough benefits of doubt. How in this modern generation of football will a team feel safe leading with one, knowing the goal advantage and points, with runners up are all in their odds??

Beat South Africa in your dreams, if Super Eagles play like this with South Africa team, they will trash Super Eagles badly.

Don't get ahead of yourself

From the available 21points from 7 matches, they only struggled to get 10. A team that paraded 2 African Footballers of the year!

They don’t deserve to qualify. If South Africa sleeps off, will Benin do? It’s shameful we failed to qualify from this seemingly less difficult group.

Akinfenwamight:
Yes

Aaah. O ti lor

Akinfenwamight:
Dey play 😹

Apart from South Africa, the remaining countries are weak in football. Super Eagles need to do better.

prinsam30:
Atleast we go qualify for best loser na

Nigerian too like calculations and permutations to dey qualify jare

They didn't try! Average team. Still no fluidity. No urgency. No play making. No set pieces. No long accurate shots at the keeper. No creativity. Poor passes especially to the strikers. Right wing play missing. No coach motivation or rebuke when team relaxes.

How did they try?

Managing one goal and feeling relaxed when the goal advantages, the points and runner up positions are in their odds??

Ernerstdavid55:
how many African best Dey South Africa team 😂

Nigeria and big mouth though..You laboured against this Rwanda team, now you think you're prime Brazil? We shall see

Football is a chronic game. You will lose two and win three. You may even win five if you are industriously gifted. Don't give yourself an automatic ideology. South African can manage to control a loss. Then we qualify.

Just kidding o. Playing with words.

achorladey:
Yes

World Cup participation is gone be dat o. Away with this kind play?
Abegi.

South Africa has won 5 games
Nigeria has won 2 games
South Africa has gd of 8
Nigeria has gd of 2

This should be put into consideration when using your football calculator

We always beat South Africa whenever both teams are under pressure.

Its crazy u know....we were winning 1-0...and the guyz were hailing the keeper for wasting time ...is that how bad we have turn...how many clean link ups did we have today...I can't count anytime we played the ball smoothly from the back and got into the opposition box or even creating a good one on one from the flanks


The truth is we need to stop this Osimhen clamour ....who is going to give him that through ball....who is going to give those good cross from the wing ...I mean "good crosses" ...not the rubbish Moses Simon is doing

Our midfielder is flat ...we don't have that creative spark...hence in my opinion and if anyone should ask me ..we need to revert back to the 3-4-3 we were playing at the last world cup...at least with that we can have numerical advantage on the flanks and keep crossing the ball since that's all we can do to get chances ...

This team is not is not equiped to play a 4-3-3...iwobi is never a no10 ..he Is only good in a free role picking the ball and progressing it will fast passes ...he can also play a wide midfielder too...

The team should simply go back to the wing back strategy ...ola aina can play as the right wing back ...and oyemechi on the left ..we can crowd the box ...with that we can even play 2 strikers if things are not working

Look man can also play well in the system ..he isn't a winger passey but an inward forward ...

This team isn't sync ...they don't know each other's movements ...they are not a unit...but the last nations cup they looked a unit with the 3-4-3

Super Eagles' Goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali gets violent on the pitch.

League game with 1k ticket and quarter filled stadium

That's good enough for a start. That is approximately a minimum of 5m per game with minimal overheads. It's up to the current and future governors and football administrators to make the best use of it but it's a wonderful asset
