Bassey with two errors leading to goal in one game
I know the errors are on him.
But his partners are also to blame.

Bassey will place himself in good positions to receive passes, but will his partners do the same.
In the event of an onrushing opponent, the normal will be to step back and make it easier to get a pass from a teammate who is being closed down, but what did Bassey's colleague do?

Many times you are as good as your partner.

I will blame the entire defense line for those goals excluding the goalkeeper.

So they equalised on aggregate only to cave in under pressure in front of their own fans. Na wa for them. Mbokazi and co don collect again.

Not giving them much of a chance. But I hope Rivers can prove me wrong.

Ofcos u are pleased. Amorim seems to be settling into a momentum that will bring back Top 4 dreams.

Yeah.

Such a relief to see a Nigerian club in d group stages again.

Rivers qualification keeps Nigeria's 2 slots intact.

I would not call it that since he scored last game and I saw it and reported it.
Now, this is unlike you who went into actual obscurity throughout the time Osimhen was burning down defences left, right, center, up and down on two continents.

He has committed the most errors leading to a shot in the last two Premier League seasons.

In the entire league, no player has been more error prone.

True.

He also committed the error that led to Benin's first goal in our 1 - 2 loss in the WCQ.

I think because of our frailties in defence and their being prone to errors (Ekong, Bassey, Osayi, Zaidu) , it's best we play a 3-man defence like JP did at the AFCON

Please what do you mean by good people? Do mean people who will not 'chop' or people who will chop and still work?

Because - make una no vex - I don't believe that good people as people who are incorruptible exist in naija oo. They might exist when outside government but once inside, na choppings oo. So goodness will be a matter of degree of the choppings.
people will be activists campaigning for better governance, once they get inside they become the very thing they were against. I have been exposed to way too many activists turned politicians puppet on social media to believe good people exist in government. People whose following was built on criticising the govt becoming their lap dogs. When you confront them on why they are in bed with their supposed oppressors, their response will be "you have to change the system from the inside". They never do that. The system was not built for good people to thrive in.

A game to forget. Happens once, we can say okay. Happens twice... problem dey.

Bassey's 4th error leading to shots for the opposition this season so far. 2 have been scored.
Hopefully the coach doesn't confine him to the bench because of that. Other than now, he has done well for the team overall.

Like the super eagles like the flamingoes. After losing 2 straight matches, the u17 girls were almost on the way home.

Until you realize,


They can still make the second round by beating their opponents , with a familiar condition. A high score line like 4-0 and 5-1 to qualify as one of the best losers.


And they did just that by beating Samoa 4-0 to qualify to the next round.

The bolded shows you understand the koko. All their condemnations is noise oo. Put them there, your eyes go peel.

The issue is that we often feel that if you are against the government or if you are a government critique, you are righteous.
