🇿🇦 Hugo Broos: Nigeria pushed FIFA to deduct our points. "Not Lesotho, not me and my staff, and not the player in question were aware of any wrongdoing. Neither was FIFA… It’s not normal, is it?”

Lol. It's not just him. South Africans are crying online about the players too. They're complaining that their senior team is being taken over by Orlando Pirates players and that Pirates players are beefing with Chiefs and Sundowns.

This is what we want. Let them keep running around like headless chickens and keep crying over spilled milk instead of focusing on the present. I'm just praying that Rwanda will visit them with satanic football. A disoriented and disorganized South Africa have been an easy target historically, even for minnows.

How is ekong the official PK taker in this team when you have Osimhen and the likes? Bankygee is this proper?

South Africa 🇿🇦 would be making a huge mistake if they fail to qualify for this World Cup, especially with the advantage and influence they have in their favor. Another golden opportunity awaits them on Tuesday against Rwanda 🇷🇼 they must come out strong, score early, and kill the game by halftime. If they allow it to stay goalless into the second half against a disciplined and fearless Rwandan side, pressure and mistakes could easily cost them the match.

A time will come Osimhen will start confronting his team mates when they play nonsense on the pitch…especially if our strikers have suffered to earn a potential 3pts and then our mumu defense/midfield start to play carelessly…omo Osimhen fit start dey fight oo🤣🤣
Against Zimbabwe everyone was begging him to calm down, same thing happened against Lesotho…baba just dey para for him team mate

But na so una too talk against Zimbabwe that
-they have nothing to play for,
-that they are neighbours,
-They used SouthAfrica as home
- they have kept a clean sheet before
- they are last in the group, yada yada.

This is football bro, Rwanda can even beat SA
I never said anything about Zimbabwe with regards to those things you listed. Get your facts right lest you end up making false accusations. You must have mistaken my moniker for someone else's.

Official taker? I am not sure but when it come to lifeline , bone crushing pressure and tension soaked situation, trust me Ekong is your man. How he does it I dont know, but he is good under pressure of penalty
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by Darkprime(m): 11:32am On Oct 12, 2025
This is all I'm going to say.

Our chances of winning against Benin is 85%. We'll most likely win the game. And it's not just because we have performed consistently well against them -- beating them a solid 14 times -- but because we have never gone a single game under Chelle without scoring at least 1 goal. We're going to score definitely. 100% in fact. Whether that goal will come in the first or second half will depend on how well we start the game. Although, based on antecedents, I'd advise you all not to hold your breaths to soon, because that goal may likely not come until the second half. Chelle's team have proven to be consistent second-half performers.

There are only two things here that may cost us the World Cup ticket. One is under our control, the other is not.

1) Defensive structure and discipline. This one is under our control.
2) South Africa's game with Rwanda. This one is not under our control.

Number (1) is very tricky because our defense has been absolutely atrocious. Bassey and Frederick are the only reliable members in our defensive unit. Zaidu is decent but I can ready guess that Chelle likely won't start him. The rest are ticking time bombs, most especially the goalkeeper, Nwabali. If we bottle this game, it will be down to these guys.

As for the South Africa game, it could go either way. Honestly I don't see either Rwanda or South Africa winning. If any team will edge it out here, my money is on Rwanda. Only reason is because South Africa's defense will suffer without Mbokazi. He was their Benjamin Frederick (sort of), before he got penalized. And Rwanda is a technical team as well. If they are given the opportunity, they will punish South Africa severely. But in all honesty, I'm going to call a DRAW as the most likely result, because South Africa, as technical as they can be, often lack precision when they're under pressure. And if Rwanda set up their defense the way they did against us in our last encounter, with their keeper Ntwari doing his thing, South Africa simply won't be able to break through.

To be honest,all these our players have really let Osimhen down..
I strongly believe that if he was available for the first 2 games against Lesotho and Zimbabwe, we would have won...
I mean, against Lesotho in Uyo, we could have been up 3-0 by half time but Boniface and Awoniyi were missing easy chances...
And in that return leg against Zimbabwe in Uyo, Osimhen had every rights to be angry after we fluffed a 1-0 lead in the dying minutes.... That game is part of why we are in a difficult position now.. if we had won, we'd be on 16 points and will only need to beat Benin to qualify and not depend on SA losing or drawing...


I like Osimhen's mentality.... He might be aggressive at times, but he has the heart of a fighter and a winner....
Future captain, IMO

If am osihmen and any defensive rubbish happens again on Tuesday I will just retire from the national team cos I will just conclude it’s an act of sabotage.

I watched an interview where Yakubu Aiyegbeni said how he charges and shouts on Yobo his captain o to go hard on opposing strikers as the opposing defenders are hard on him.

He just needs a win in his last game and he’s lamenting already after playing most of his games in one country. What a shame! If they can’t beat Rwanda then they had no business aspiring to play in the World Cup in the first place. Trash!

If they can't beat a 10 man Zimbabwe for almost 40 minutes, then I don't see how they can beat Rwanda... Rwanda are actually tougher than Zimbabwe...
Most times, it is all these teams with nothing to fight for that will pour sand in your garri

See what these otondos are saying. "Indigenous coach!" "Indigenous coach!" ... as if the reason we're struggling to qualify is not because of these same indigenous coaches.

NIGHTMARE0O7:
Lol lookman has played 3 matches for Atalanta since his return which amounds to 137minutes out of 270 minutes thats half of the total minutes. Was this how much he used to play Before in ATalanta ?


And Which agenda are u tlaking about.?
When the whole nation was praising him it wasnt agenda..now he isnt doing well and people are pointing it out its agenda.. lol

There is no player in that team that has chopped more draggin than chukwueze
We see chukwueze being dragged like generator for 1 mistake in a match and everyone agrees.. but poiting out that lookman is out of form which everyone can clearly see is "Agenda"

All the 3 qualifiers we played he contributed little to nothing
no goal,
no asssist
no penalty won
despite playing most of the minutes.

Lookman and osimhen are the 2 less dragged people in that team.. so stop the AGENDA sh****t
Lookman has played 3 matches because of the issue he had with the club. Stop lying here.

You lied the club preferred the Ghanian ahead of him instead of explaining the reason he was out of the team.

That to me na Agenda. EOD.
