Why Nigerians be moving faster than their shadow . I see A lot of us complaining about the referees, over looking Gabon and already thinking about Cameroon in the playoff final . Abeg calm down. One game at a time . Remember France 1998 we never yet play Denmark and were already thinking about playing Brazil. Before Denmark handed our behind to us

Based on comments I've seen online, it's clear that majority of the media already have access to the squad list. Chelle is the one who wants it kept under locks for now, and that's why no one has published it. I don't really see a problem with that. I imagine the mind games would affect our opponents more, not us the fans.

Besides, if the media already have the list, then it's a 100% guarantee that the players have it too.

Victor Boniface shares his thoughts on his performances with the Nigeria Super Eagles: "I'd say I'm just unlucky when it comes to scoring goals with the national team. I know there are a few matches where I played really well, but finding the net is currently the most crucial aspect in the world of football."

"If people don't even watch the game, they go on live score to see you has scored. When they see you score, you are Ronaldinho. You know, people don't watch the game. So, I'm sorry for those people that think that way."

One of my biggest childhood dreams as a footballer was to wear the green and white jersey and represent my country, which I managed to achieve through my own effort. I strived hard to reach this point, and I’m genuinely grateful for that."

"It doesn't work bad. It doesn't work good. That doesn't mean I'm a bad player or anything. I'm really happy I represented my country anyway,.

Seems like Boniface has given up on ever representing Nigeria again... Sad😪

The South African Sports Minister openly stated that he does not want Nigeria to qualify for the World Cup.

“I wish for #Nigeria not to qualify…”

This is what @GaytonMcK, South Africa’s Sports Minister, said, regarding the @NGSuperEagles #FIFAWorldCup campaign... pic.twitter.com/Ar3QbHCyjq

With that kind of bias coming from such a high-ranking official, it’s only natural for the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) and Nigerian fans to be concerned so the decision to question and reject the appointment of South African referees for our World Cup Qualifier playoff against Gabon is completely justified.

No one expects fair officiating from a country whose top sports official has already shown open hostility toward Nigeria’s qualification for the World Cup. The NFF is right to demand neutral referees to protect the integrity of the match and avoid unnecessary controversy.

Yes he did save a penalty but he also committed an error that led to the goal scored by the opponent.

Uzoho still doesnt seem far from errors.

Starting GK u say? Pls just stop 🫸🏾

I don't think Uzoho made an error oh. Seems like it was a wicked deflection from his teammate that threw him off @ 1:20
That penalty save was ridiculous sha

Well, still a funny goal to concede and most people wont catch the slight deflection in the clip. It was put down as an error.

But yes, the penalty save was tops. Player trying to go down the middle but the long legs of Uzoho plucked it away.
