Funny thing is Nigeria may even end up losing this match

This super eagles is the worst we have had in qualification history for a very long time

Even though it is possible we make it directly to the world cup if we beat Benin and South Africa fail to beat Rwanda, I feel like we should aim all our energies on making the playoffs first as it is far more assured than the direct placement. We should be aiming for beating Benin 3-0 to secure our playoff place instead of us to beat them by a single goal only for S/A to now score a late winner against Rwanda. The target should be score score score against Benin, so even though S/A win we go use playoff hold body. At all at all na winch.

Baba leave this dy/dx Nigeria wining Benin is like giving free pass to S.A

Instead wey full cow go run, make we cut hin tail. Benin deserve this victory.

GanagiBitrus:
If...

[quote author=FalseProphet1 post=137084721]I see Nigeria qualifying for the world cup, I see Nigeria reaching the semi finals of the world cup, I see a Nigerian player winning the Ballon 'dor.

This I have seen. [/quote

Bruh,
You need glasses because u dnt knw wat you re seeing...

Rest, we aren't going nowhere...

Heffalump:
I actually have a strong feeling that Nigeria will qualify for the world cup.

Biased feeling based on patriotism.(Love gor one's own country)

Come out of it bruh.
Make peace with reality.
We re not a serious nation. We trivialize nd politicize everything.

Gone are the days we could bet our three square meals on Super Eagles match. You sha know say dem go deliver but today, mind dey shake and na patriotism dey make man hope they'll win.

May God give them a win today

I don't want super Eagles to qualify
I hate that team with passion

..

Na the same time everybody start this qualifications so...

We invie players that re match rusty and try to balance quota system wit our football matches...
Ola Aina and co wld sag their shots and be strolling on the pitch like nothing was at stake.

So now we re praying to God to come do wat...because Benin Republic pple dnt go to church too?

The super Eagles is a reflection of the Nigeria mess.

Sad reality.....

See as naija dey give themselves hope when there is none. Begging Rwanda to win or draw South Africa. After messing up they will start to beg God to help them. It will take a huge miracle ti beat Benin even if south africa mess up. What are we even doing in the world cup because we cany pass the group stage self. Atleast to save us from unnnecessary squardering in the name of supporting the eagles

Don't have any high hope for the Super Eagles. They lost it from the beginning. And they have super betrayals like the goal keeper.

NFF for the first time should stop playing politics with Nigeria football.

robosky02:
The best scenario

So you didn't take South Africa into consideration.
Anything South Africa win will make Nigeria qualifications impossible

South Africa is seriously praying for Nigeria to win, because they are going to defeat Rwanda.

S A may top the group at the end

Bafana Bafana :"make sure you don't check the half-time score line between us and Rwanda. Just keep destroying Benin. Do you understand giant of Africa "?

Super eagles:"But sir if you destroying Rwanda in half-time, there is no need for us to keep destroying Benin. Benin must destroy us back if you are destroying Rwanda "

Ok.

Freshtruth:

if we will we will go for playoffs

Make or Break...
Go hard or Go home...
Today na war.

ARISHEM:
All our last 3 matches in World Cup qualifying table ended in a 1-1 draw. So just be expecting a draw and dont over bother yourself.
But it can still end with a 2-0 win in favour of the Beninoise which is very highly probable than the 1-1 draw.
Squirrels are having eagles for dinner this evening. Having a dozen handkerchiefs beside you will be useful.

Mhmm, enough said, I'll quote you after the match..

Again, the problem is not qualifying…if we happen to qualify…with the way this squad currently is, we will be out of the WC in no time

robosky02:
South Africa should forget the world cup


Rwanda head coach: "We are 11 points Benin are 14 points, we want to take 14 points to South Africa as we will try to qualify. We understand Benin people are happy but we want to be happy too,also Nigeria want to be happy and South Africa wants to be happy also. "

"This is the most controversial qualifying group I have ever been involved in. At some point we were finished and now we are back alive. The most gutted at this point is SAFA meanwhile we all want to capitalize in their mistake".

This must be an old news

FalseProphet1:

says the false prophet

NFF should have relocated this match to Kano.

We are out already, who give a spoon

Not really. There will be time to mould and build a tailor-made squad for the world cup.

Judgment day is here

At the end, there will be wailing across the nation

This I have seen

Blessed are those that are not expecting miracle cos they ll not be disappointed
