NIGERIA AGAINST GABON PLAYOFF 13th November 2025 in Morocco.

A LOOK AT
the Gabonese national football team

The Gabonese national team is ranked 77 in the world and 17 in Africa (October FIFA rankings). Let's look at their strengths and weaknesses

Strengths

1. Experienced Players: The team has experienced players like Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who is Gabon's top scorer with 39 goals. Aubameyang has been instrumental in the team's success, for both club and international games.

2. Skilled Midfielders: Players like Didier Ibrahim Ndong and Guélor Kanga bring creativity and skill to the midfield, allowing the team to control the pace of games.
3. Goalkeeping: Loyce Mbaba has been the team's first-choice goalkeeper, demonstrating his abilities between the sticks.

Let's consider their weaknesses

1. Inconsistent Form: Gabon has struggled with consistency in their performances, often failing to replicate their successes in major tournaments.
2. Lack of Depth: The team has limited depth in certain positions, making them vulnerable to injuries and suspensions.
3. Defensive Vulnerability: watch their match against Gambia you will see that their defense 'dey leak' Gabon has conceded goals in critical matches, highlighting the need for a more solid defense.
4. Limited World Cup Experience: Despite their efforts, Gabon has never qualified for the FIFA World Cup, which remains a significant challenge for the team, but this may be a great motivation when they confront the Super Eagles of Nigeria come 13th of November.

Looking at the Gabonese national team one can say they are dangerous if the opponent slack. I pray Super Eagles will not slack

Welcome to the camp the best striker in the world.

Something tells me of a truth Lookman , Akor, Chukwueze and Osimhen should start or even keep Osimhen on the bench for 1st 25minutes such that if those guys(Lookman, Akor and Chukwueze) can't score against Gabon he should be introduced at the 25th minute. I say this against the backdrop of the fact that Coach Mouyouma of Gabon has his main plan as : CONTAINING OSIMHEN.
So if those 3 players should be on ground or the 3 plus Osimhen, Gabonese goalkeeper will concede more than 3 goals altogether in the game.

This looks like an old picture... When we played away to Lesotho at south Africa

Na old video be this ooh 😂
From last month

Omo, this one is a classic "banana peel" match.

Yes, Naija is the favorite, no doubt. But these are the exact kind of matches they struggle with

Super Eagles shouldn't play except their bonus is paid

With all the drama going on. I expect Nigeria to win on penalty shootout . Nigeria 0-0 Gabon. Nigeria to win 4-3 via spot kicks. Bookmark this post after the game

Guys, I’m going to score hat-trick tomorrow

Potentially, Nigeria is the best African country in football alongside Morroco.

So then I really don't understand why we are struggling to qualify for the WC through play offs?

Nigeria has all it takes to qualify for the intercontinental WC playoffs next year, unless for indiscipline.

What is it about this players strike and refusal to train. What is it about our inability to organize ourselves.
Why is this country so hard to govern well.
Why is every little thing rocket science and a trip to colonize Mars.
