We have like 3 clear chances and only convert one. Congo only use their only chance. We are a wasteful team in the first half so far
Nigeria has always been a wasteful country. See players, no skills at all.

What's with Zaydu and back passes? He should be substituted abeg!

Aswear lookman and chukwueze ar not doing anything in this game at all
Lookman should be retired .. he has no function anymore in the national team. ...

Let our coach see this and stop using the lookman and that silly iwobi
Cocony:
Some Take Home Points so far:

1)Nigeria needs to scout for 2 more bettered goalkeepers cos NWABALI will be messed up when we face European, Central American or South American opponents
2) Lookman should up the ante in his game or get to the bench as Akor has more bite.
3) Onyedika and Onyeka combo might turn out better than having Ndidi start.

Lookman should not be starting this game at all. Two matches where he was absent, Nigeria scored 8 goals.

The approach of BENJAMIN FREDRIK in defence is top notch.

Iwobi and Lookman play nothing in that first half. Ndidi should have done better to prevent that equalizer. These guys should behave themselves or else!

I'm feeling so bad for Ademola, he's going through a lot. I hope he gets much needed therapy. Good thing the coach did not substitute him in the first half it would have further dealt with his confidence. Eric Chelle will definitely make tactical substitution by the time the second half commences.

Iwobi is not the problem, lookman and chukwueze should be sub
at least chukwueze i pressing. lookman is still trying to complete at least one dribble
Re: Nigeria Vs DR Congo: 2026 World Cup Play-Off Finals 1(3 - 4)1 On Nov 16 2025 by Akwamkpuruamu: 8:55pm On Nov 16, 2025
We need give substitutions right now.

Nwabali for time wasting and not showing seriousness in the post
Iwobi for playing like a blind man
Lookman for playing without sense
Chukwueze for not knowing how to push ball forward to the opponents half.
Ndidi, he's old and should have space


Frederick Deserves a Good medal this far

No confidence joor on the part of super eagles! Fear fear wan kill Iwobi and Calvin !

Coach, if you no remove Lookman, nah both of you go leave the national team after this match...

Re: Nigeria Vs DR Congo: 2026 World Cup Play-Off Finals 1(3 - 4)1 On Nov 16 2025 by Jayson504(m): 8:55pm On Nov 16, 2025
Congo dey ball sha, those guys are very fast. I think it's high time the coach removes lookman and bring in akor Adams or ejuke
Re: Nigeria Vs DR Congo: 2026 World Cup Play-Off Finals 1(3 - 4)1 On Nov 16 2025 by StoryHaven: 8:55pm On Nov 16, 2025
Nigeria has a very bad pattern even since the time of Keshi and co. Once they score one, they relax as if its time to go defensive. And before you know it, the opponents equalise.

So bad.

We this team we cannot win the world cup or even win the intercontinental playoff and even if we qualify for the world cup, we would never make it out of the group stage with this team.

Just imagine Spain, Germany or even France meet this team, we would b beaten blue black.
You are not going to the world cup to win at least let us be there first

Back passes and holding and delaying with ball for so long. No urgency at all nothing nothing. They just appear so unserious
You said it All.
No urgency or seriousness, they expect the lock to standstill for them

You guys na wa oo

They are playing good football, not an easy match

Just some small mistakes, those back passes are unnecessary
Those mistakes ain't small bro. This is a serious match that requires a serious team with serious action

Na Iwobi and Ndidi cos this goal
It is Iwobi. Why he keeps getting called up shows how connection and lobbying work in NFF.

Ndidi was in a tight corner, he could have as well scored an own goal. That ball was very dangerous

If Congo takes the lead Nigeria should just forget going to the WC..... They seem to be more compact defensively than the eagles.




Iwobi and Lookman ain't in this match, Chelle should take them off.

Congo players are more fluidy than ours, their passes are more accurate and they are showing that they are in for business.

Our players appeared rigid, devoid of creativity, dribbling is like a rocket science. They are not good with tap tap as well.

Naija team needs a lot of overhauling I guess.
Re: Nigeria Vs DR Congo: 2026 World Cup Play-Off Finals 1(3 - 4)1 On Nov 16 2025 by ogbe88(m): 8:57pm On Nov 16, 2025
Everybody is now a coach, we Nigerians r too loud and boastful.

Make una calm down and watch the match.

Dantedasz:
Look man and Chukwueze should be substituted at half time if Chelle is serious about winning this play off final.
I think the coach is very stupid for bringing that chukwueze in ...why couldn't he bring in the pairing of akor,ejuke and those sharp guys that work
Re: Nigeria Vs DR Congo: 2026 World Cup Play-Off Finals 1(3 - 4)1 On Nov 16 2025 by Babtunz: 8:57pm On Nov 16, 2025
WTH! Can't the Super Eagles play games without conceding goalshuh I mean whenever they score it's almost definitely the opponents will score an equalizer. They never play with a sense of urgency or as though anything is at stake-they see it more like a recreational activity. I'm fvvking tired man. Arrant nonsense
Re: Nigeria Vs DR Congo: 2026 World Cup Play-Off Finals 1(3 - 4)1 On Nov 16 2025 by Apcshit: 8:57pm On Nov 16, 2025
The guy held on to Iwobis shirt that was poor officiating from the referee
