I'm getting this feeling of nervous excitement, similar to what I had the day before Nigeria played Morocco at the WAFCON finals. Like we're going to pull it off. I hope that's a good sign?

Benin needs a win which will guarantee them automatic qualification regardless of other results. A draw or loss means they wont make the playoff because they will be deducted 4 points due to zimbabwe.
Nigeria needs a win for two reasons, a play off spot and automatic qualification in the event results go their way.
South africa needs a win for automatic qualification only and also hope nigeria wins. They cant go through on play off due to zimbabwe.
A nerve wrecking day ahead to come.
Tomorrow will be chaotic

With cameroun draw, do we still have to score 4goals to snick into the play off
Yes. I just did the calculation now. Let's just pray DR Congo draws or loses their match. Then big hope dey.

If we fit score early goal tomorrow sha, e go unsettle benin to come out from parking the bus cos they need atleast a draw.
That might give us the edge to pump them goals and qualify direct or to the playoffs.
Early goal before 20mins go unsettle dem.
But this Super eagles when I know....
Abeg I go just off my phone when time reach. I no fit get high BP
The problem is that we don't know how to control the game anytime we are leading...
If we score early and Benin comes out to hit us on the offensive, can we withstand them?
We couldn't withstand Lesotho and Zimbabwe after taking the lead... even during the Unity cup, it was the same thing...
It's an issue that Chelle need to address...

With cameroon 15pts and +9GD they have sneaked back into the playoffs, it means a harder task for Nigeria..
beat Benin 4-0 and top Burkina faso
Beat Benin 7-0 and top Cameroon🤣🤣🤣
Beat Benin 1-0 and top Niger republic
and the most importantly pray for DRC to draw Sudan

any of the above will guarantee us the playoffs spot

I think it has a lot to do with our 2 man midfield option involving Ndidi and Iwobi....
Nobody needs to be told twice to understand that Iwobi doesn't fit in that set up...in a 2 man midfield, you need a workaholic midfielder to partner Ndidi.... Iwobi doesn't suit that role...the role is limiting him...

If Chelle should start that midfield combo tomorrow and we are in the lead, he might want to choke up the defense to protect the lead... IMO, that would be the wrong call....

SE could not score Lesotho early is it Benin republic they will now score early..

what is the point of scoring early then Benin republic ends up scoring a late goal to equalizehuh

SE gets pressed a lot once the clock reaches 80:00minutes,

Benin republic is not here to do nonsense...

if Lookman name ends up in the matchday squad it might end up costing SE badly.

Zimbabwe just use bad belle energy play SA. Dem no fit even draw lesotho.
This puts Lesotho ahead of Rwanda on the table. Will this motivate Rwanda to regain their position on the table tommorow?

Chai, when did Cape Verde come on the soccer scene for God’s sake! Chai I will keep saying that we have failed to build upon what we gained in the last Afcon. Cape Verde has just proven that after the beautiful display at Afcon. We no well walai!

This is Wikipedia where anyone can make edits. I presume someone made a quick judgement without considering all the permutations and calculations tomorrow cause we can still qualify based on he we fare and how the DRC result pans out.

It seems I'm the only one who isn't worried about our game tomorrow. I'm only concerned with the outcome of SA match against Rwanda.

Nothing will ever make me worry about a team coached by Rorh.
