NIGHTMARE0O7:
All im saying is that u cant totally rule out a possible win for super eagles.
Thry are not at their best yes but u cant rule out a win.
If not team quality They have individual quality to pull it off.
How far...what a performance for a team that wants to go to the world cup 😏

Tactically Chelle is not sure of himself. He's just winging it.

The biggest question is
WHY DID EKONG START THIS GAME?
Were you not there when media ask coach why he didn't start him ?
Nigerians on social media advocated for him to start too.

We have a team now..
We may be out of the world Cup, but we have a very strong team..
Strong enough to win the AFCON
Kudos to the South Africans, they gave everything today..
When did SA become so physical?
They fought for every ball..
Nullified Moses and Lookman

They truly deserve to qualify..
Weldone Chelle..
Our team is taking shape..

We will be back..
Let's fight for second place and see if we can make the playoffs

Was the ref biased? Obviously. Was his bias enough to have prevented us from winning? Absolutely not.

We just got a lot of things wrong. Sad but that's just reality.

I think it's dying minute pressure. Chelle should have started him, Chukwueze and Tolu to be honest.

South Africa actually looked much much worse in the first half. They grew into the game. Especially after Ekong's howler.
That gave them confidence, these guys are still scared of us na we Dey fumble

If you continue with this midfield in Afcon na oyo o
We still have two more games for afcon preparation and also we have like two weels for camping... Those one will be sorted out.

All blames just be on NFF.

Overhyped players. Shame on all of them. Later in future some of these today's players will come to the media and say they gave their all to Nigeria playing for the NT but the Nigeria government has forgotten them
Abeg jare. Na una no wan dey realistic. The game was a step up from Rwanda, but to beat this RSA team in this form at home is near impossible.

Another thing you guys don't see is that the fear of point deduction is putting SA under pressure to keep getting results till it doesn't matter anymore. Thats why they played the way they did.
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by Openair: 7:05pm On Sep 09, 2025
These super eagles should go rest...we need a team not a collection individual players that can not play with themselves..we should try home based players, maybe they'll have the time and discipline to build and play as a team..
For this sa match ehn... The two teams performed below par jare..

Considering the point he is joining the fray? He survived.

It is from AFCON we'd judge him by his own campaign.

We didn't tried our best, Chelle rather tried his best. 4 qualifying matches, 8 points. If Peseiro, Eguavoen and Finidi had given us the same 8 points in the first 4 matches, we would have been on 16 points right now
Bro, what has happened has happened if you look at it critically all odds are against us from changing coaches like pure water and key players getting injuries during important games... All odds are against us

QueenJazz:
I'm watching all our recent games under Chelle and the biggest flaw I can notice is poor finishing. Our attack is actually very potent in terms of build-up but 9 times of 10, we flop it all once we get to the final third, even with Osimhen present. I can't understand why it's so difficult for us. Other teams appear more clinical and dangerous once they get within the 18 yard box. But for us, it's almost guaranteed that we will miss. That's very poor and it's the biggest aspect of our game that we need to work on seriously.

There's only so many chances you can create without results before you become predictable and the opponent finds a way to just lock shop on you.
I made this comment about 4 hours before kick-off and that's exactly what happened during the last 20 minutes of the game. Good build up, atrocious finishing.

The referee is an idiot, very poor officiating.
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by Joebie: 7:06pm On Sep 09, 2025
no guarantee we are winning it. This team that struggles to score goals .when dem go gel?

I just wan hear say NFF board resign. The coach can continue.
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by QueenJazz(f): 7:07pm On Sep 09, 2025
Imagine an alternate reality where we didn't start Ekong in this game. 🥲

I remember the good, not-so-old days. We haven't qualified for the World Cup since we sacked this man. sad
