There would be 5 minutes of added time.

We need more goals...

A little too late now. Only if they had been this serious against Lesotho at home.

Nigeria's only hope is for DR Congo not to beat Sudan at home. Well 🤞

I ask again…why are their names not printed on their shirts?

In the typical Nigerian way, they bought paint that could only print the numbers. They didn't know it wouldn't be able to print names even though it could print some names before it finishes.
So they do not want a situation whereby some players will have their names while other do not.

Because they don't want to spend money. Without names any player available can put on any jesery. But once names are on it, if the player doesn't make it, the jesery becomes a waste.

But Benin is losing by two goals to the super eagles 🦅

No worry yourself within 80 minutes to 95 minutes you will 1 own goal and 2 penalties.

Last last Nigeria will let them win.

It's half time.

The commentator has confirmed that we'll need two more goals to give the team a fighting chance. We have to win at least 4-0 or more.

I feel your frustration deeply — those draws really hurt us, especially the one against Lesotho at home. When you have a group with teams like Zimbabwe, Rwanda, Lesotho, and Benin, there’s no excuse for dropping points like that. South Africa may be tough, but the others should be matches we win comfortably.

You’re right, if we had just turned one or two of those draws into wins, qualifying would’ve been a lot less stressful — maybe even sealed early. It’s painful watching the current coach take all the blame when the real issues go way deeper, starting from the management level at NFF and even the choices made by people like Finidi and Eguavoen before.

The whole system seems tangled, and the blame game isn’t helping us move forward. What do you think would be the best step to get us back on track?

I learnt there's another route nigeria can qualify even if nigeria doesn't make the playoffs through a weird fifa rule that's going to deduct points from all the bottom teams in all the groups though i don't fully understand how that's going to work yet.

Then just let them play their best and win, even if it's not about qualifying anymore. Make una chill and enjoy the game

We all know African countries are just going to mark attendance at the world cup. Its all just for bragging rights. AFCON is the real deal for us
