Adams is always injured
False. NFF and Chelle were pressured by his stellar performance against Barcelona. I have been following him from his Lillestrom days and while he was at Montpellier, I knew a new version of 1992 to 1996 Daniel Amokachi was born awaiting call-up.

I see your point, but can you in all honesty say we played exceptionally well?
We had good moments, yes
But we didn't control the game
Benin always looked like they would score anytime
We still need to fix our midfield
We should be controlling games and smashing opponents
But na you still talk say Benin poor na, yet they looked like they would score anytime. Agreed, chelle is yet to get our midfield combination right which still make it difficult for to control games, I pray he reviews this qualification series and fix up.

That switch to 433 when Onyeka came on btw


Chef's kiss
You sabi book!!
That was when we finally got some control in the game
We shouldn't continue with 2 man midfield abeg
We almost didn't see Ndidi today

In what way

I'm not being unfair.

I'm just stating what I saw
LOOKMAN is a good player, but today in his absence we played better

There Was no much hanging unto the ball for long and releasing some passes a little bit late.

Lookman is good but he has been rusty lately but it doesn't mean he wouldn't get better.
Meaning, whenever he played we played badly. Weldone.

Stop passing erratic assumptions. DR Congo are fighting for themselves, likewise Senegal. Burkina Faso are the ones praying and pressing the calculator that DR Congo should not win.
Our own chapter is concluded.

Osimhen really scored 6 goals in this WCQ despite missing the first 4 games. So crazy
He probably would have surpassed Yekini record by now if he played those earlier games

what worked for the team today , they played for Osimhen , even some played to his strength . 2 heading 1 shot .... i realised that the team did well in their set pieces

I feel very sorry for Benin, we could have let them qualify, but in this case it is every man for himself.
You Think say them send us? We also had a chance to qualify why should we allow them
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by lbrichman2: 7:50pm On Oct 14, 2025
Meliforme:
Nwabali's issue has to do with his attitude and not his skill.
Dude has sharp reflexes.

Bad attitudes can be corrected.

We all have to bear in mind that the game is even more psychological than anything.
Nwabali should not tolerate any bad behaviour around his yard.
He should caution any cautionable, the opposition should not be free to behave as they seem fit around him.
He needs to provoke and frustrate them when possible.

The game is not as clean as you think
Well, he got away with what should probably have been a clean goal today
He should be grateful the referee was that lenient
Another referee would have awarded that goal straight up

Did you also notice he dropped the ball again today?
That could have gone anywhere..

I like the guy
But he needs to get himself together

I hope you know he made the list for September games but had to pull out due to injuries? Took him a long time to make his Sevilla debut due to injuries, he’s always injured

Fifa WCQs Playoffs Battle

The WCQs best 4 2nd place table's final look will emerge tonight.

DRC vs Sudan kicks off in 8mins.

So if you are a Burkina Faso fan, start praying. My Super Eagles, Our Super Eagles is safe and locked in for the playoffs.

We only await who we play with the Fifa rankings to be taken into account.
As things stand, Nigeria is the highest ranked by FIFA among the playoffs qualifiers for CAF Zone. It will work to our favour.

forgiveness:
I already said yesterday. Our qualification is in our hands. All we needed to do is to score 4 unreplied goals and we did it.

Make DR Congo win so that we can play Gabon then play either Cameron or DR Congo in the final if we scale through by the grace of God.
Upcoming October FIFA ranking will be used and not position on the playoff log.

True Chief
Benin were poor
A better team would have killed us with the way the middle was open
They didn't even really test Nwabali..
True true them no sabi anything

He is right. 6.

By 7, you mean, 7G/A... 6 goals, 1 assist.

I am wondering why these guys Fredrick and Akor Adams were never invited before the last two matches ? I believe inviting wrong players cost us automatic qualification. Moreso the draw against Zimbabwe cost the ticket .. however thanks 🙏 to Eitrea who withdrew
You're seeing it now.

Its the draw against South Africa that cost us automatic qualification.
