On Gilberto Mora, this is the company he sits in....this is prior to the ongoing U20 WC. He plays for Tijuana in Mexico's LIGA MX.



NB: On a sidenote, notice Pele's insane stats at age 16. No teen prodigy like Pele may ever exist again. Yamal is awesome but still not even close. GOAT of GOATs.

#FlyingEagles2025

I have grown used to insane stats for Pele but what is Lukaku doing there 😳
That guy deserves more credit than we care to give

Mujtahida:
After that Zimbabwe loss, my enthusiasm for Chelle waned.

Some things have been happening and we aren't observant. That supposed loss could be what takes Nigeria to the world cup. Also there is a reason the handball against SA stood up until now. It effectively ensured we are still in the running albeit very late. Let's wait till the end of the qualifiers. As someone said, maybe God loves Naija more

JohnBullMySon:
Best loser table sha not main table if it happens. So it doesn’t apply to South Africa if they top the group.

Oh ok

AndSunGorilla:
Me am already afraiding with the RBs out injured. Benjamin might be deployed to RB and that means Ekong could play CB again.

Ajayi will pair Bassey at CB

Lukaku was actually a beast before he hit 17. And by beast, I mean "literally". U16 Lukaku was taller than Refs naa... at 13, he was an unfair freak of nature vs Fellow 13 yr olds. So it is no surprise he got into Anderlecht's first team by age 16.

or it could be just to keep our hopes high and dash it at the final moment. Whatever happens at the end of this WCQ, this place will be very interesting by the end.

Osimhen reaction after was called a black monkey

Thanks to Wilfred Ndidi that calmed him down

Spainever:
Who is the godfather of Olakunle Olusegun?
His inclusion in the list sound awkward and embarrassing to those players working hard in European and Home league ..Going into two decisive world cup matches with a lean midfield shows Chielle is extremely lucky to coach super eagles of Nigeria. Whatever happens in the two matches do not justify for the reasons to ignore players like Gift Orban,Uche and Akinsanmiro

Abeg leave my boy alone,Olakunle Olusegun didn't have any Godfather,the Russia friendly gave him the opportunity,so possibly Chelle saw something good in him,well he is a good player right from his tutelage in ABS Ilorin with Benjamin Fredericks.

solonnachi:
So you mean if Eritrea's absence counts and FIFA dock points from bottom teams like Zimbabwe, our group will now become like this

Benin- 14-4= 10pts
Nigeria - 11-2= 9pts
South Africa - 14-6= 8pts

God too like Naija abeg. 😃

I doubt this is for determining who tops the group. Its for second place determination.

Ndidi used Lagos street slang "O boy wetin nay" to calm Osimhen down

JohnBullMySon:
Source??

I was just about to ask same

Did anyone noticed Landon Emenalo on the bench for Chelsea against Liverpool.He is the son of Mike Emenalo

Another star is born,Adamu Khalid signed for Sporting Gijon from street of Ilorin,a graduate of Geology Kwara State University 2022,got the opportunity when group of Spaniards came to Ilorin for open talent screening in 2024 which I was involved,under 30 minutes Khalid caught the attention of scouts.....my candid advice to young parents that are not sure about their children mixing education with sports,pls it's possible cuz "TALENT NO DEY HIDE"

Lukaku was a huge prodigy when he was a youngster at Anderlecht. At 16 he was built like a man already.

Oh just seeing this.

Ppogbae:
We shouldn't start Osimhen against Lesotho. Save him for Benin.

exactly sef, or even bring him from the bench against Benin….Honestly all the strikers need to be ruthless…ate they not ashamed that it takes us defenders/Midfielder to score goals in this WCqualifiers if Osimhen is not in the match.
Ajayi vs Lesotho
Bassey vs SA
Onyedika vs Benin
Bashiru vs SA

only Iheanacho and Tolu have been the strikers so far to register their names

jihday:
why? If we drop points against Lesotho there will be no need for the Benin game again, both games are very important. I think we can try to wrap up the Lesotho game before half time then take off Osimhen

Just imagine
Lesotho 0-3 SA
Ben 4-0 Lesotho

They will now meet super eagles and be doing home to score first or doing Goal-Goal with super eagles….omo like seriously Nigeria needs to wake up oo…Minnow full Africa like werey, except we sef don become fellow minnows

yinkeys:
Coach for at least bring back Aribo
That central creative midfield is too thin
Only Alex Iwobi

aribo for what

Flying eagles may face Argentina if we are 3rd in the group.

LB and Freekick Boywonder from 2023 WafuB & CAF U17, Emmanuel Michael makes his first senior start in European club football for LASK vs TSV Hartberg in the Austrian Bundesliga. This is his 5th league appearance overall.

Moses Usor also starts for LASK.

Ragingthunder:
aribo for what

I no understand o when we have Akinsanmiro doing it in serial A.. Chelle don't want to gamble,reason why he picked the oldies Iwobi,Onyenka,Ndidi and Alhassan,good Uche has been recalled but Akinsanmiro would have been a tonic just like Frederick Benjamin

This is fantastic. What position does he play?

Your boy that runs like a Ninja turtle, and is all brawn and no brain?

He definitely has a godfather cos he didn't do anything in that Russia friendly to warrant invitation ahead of Christantus Uche, Ebenezer Akinsanmiro, Anthony Dennis and Gift Orban.

Goodluck to him, and I wish him the best with the Suoer Eagles.

pray for South Africa and Benin Republic to lose or draw either of their last 2 games

If not we're out

Even that Lesotho no sure with Osimhen on the pitch o

These set of Eagles no dey trust worthy

Na wetin I wan talk be dis 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣,we wey Dey struggle score 🤣🤣🤣

elyte89:
Na wetin I wan talk be dis 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣,we wey Dey struggle score 🤣🤣🤣

With non existent midfield?
How we no go struggle?

Again this this group of eagles have a poor mentality problem not talent.

This group were once 4-0 up against a minnow team and that team came back to draw.

If this team show strong mentality for the remaining games, they will blow both Lesotho and Benin away before first half…

I just need 4 Osimhen on that pitch, one of my issues with iwobi, Iwobi doesn’t show strong mentality, good thing there is a Bassey, but we need a mentality monster in the midfield too.
