It's not about us having our chance and not taking it, but why should they play 7 games at home, that's a huge Advantage to them and I very very big dis-Advantage to others especially us

No where I. The WCQ is such Allowed,
Does it matter? We could not even beat Zimbabwe at home bro. We got another chance via play off, we hobbled through regular minutes playing rubbish and dragged things till PK where Nwabali made saves yet we couldn't qualify. Please let's leave South Africa out of this. We blew our chances by ourselves

What do you mean, it was not a penalty all days long, if they give it, it would have been a travesty. He was falling and has no where to place his hands
The falling down changed the trajectory of a shot on target, his hands were not in a natural position. I'm still happy they lost

It seems like the only way the super Eagles can play defensively compact like this is if we use a 3 man defense....

He came in for the tackle. He wasn't falling.
He came for the tackle and was falling, are you watching the game at all. His hands was in a natural position. He was falling as he was making the tackle. No sensible referee will award that as a penalty.

CornOak:
No, I disagree.

I genuinely think the hand was on the line and not inside the box.
If his hand was on the line, we won't see the line. The line was clearly very visible in front of his hand.

Make My Maroc catch them first for this edition. In 2021, we were unlucky vs Egypt.

Na 11 plagues we go unleash that day.

No matter how impressive South Africa is,I will never fear them in football.

Just like Argentina and Nigeria, I'm sure no Argentine will ever fear playing against Nigeria.

They were so impressive against this same Egyptians in 2019 only to look so ordinary against Nigeria in the next match.

And we need to execute a 3 man defence. 3man defence-3 man midfield setup.

Guy, you need to watch more footy. That's all I have to say to you.
Where do you expect him to put his hand? Do you know ball to hand at all!

It does matter sir, I certainly does, the travelling and jet legs came into play


And as for the playoffs you can't blame the guys they are humans, thing is that extra time they play against Gabon, take a toll on them, worst still the free days interval before a match is just like 24hrs bro

See people wey me and them de talk football. He was making a tackle as expected, there is no where he can place his hands, his hand in a natural position . These kinds of decisions has been made severally in the EPL.

Like say you no watch the game.

Egypt's goalkeeper kept that scoreline intact. South Africa pressed and attacked the hell out of Egypt. No be PK the Egypt take win?

If una see truth make una talk am. No one here likes South Africa, including me, but facts are facts, they can fucking play ball.

I guess the VAR officials that called the ref to the box also need to watch more football.

If it was ball to hand will they spend minutes reviewing it?
