Leave Flashscore and watch match. Egypt were the better team. When they scored they deserved the lead. If the 11 vs 11 continued they would have won comfortably.

Exactly, I was wondering if the person you quoted watched a different game, cause Egypt were dominating that first half and were creating the better of the chances until the red card happened.

OK let me take you down memory lane

AFCON 2022 Nigeria vs Tunisia in the knockout stage

We went one man down in the open half when Iwobi got sent off and literally capitulated, failing to play with any urgency or structure like a team that needed to make or break until the dying minutes when it was too late

Nigeria vs Zimbabwe wasn't too long ago, scored in the 77th or so minute only to concede in the 89th minute? WCQ

Almost lost a lead to a Lesotho team that had nothing to play in our laborious 2-1 win- WCQ

Need I mention more?

.say more abeg

the same egypt that was defending their box and aimlessly releasing the ball after they win possession? Just be say football no dey favor who tap ball pass but who score. South Africa were the better team here.

we all watched the last AFCON na. The match could have gone either way. Normally sef SA no suppose dey the convo where Super Eagles dey. The point is that we are performing below our potentials.

SA eliminated 11 man Egyptian team even when Egypt hosted it in 2019. Also eliminated Morocco last AFCON. Guess who stopped them on both Ocassions? The argument is not about how good SA is but about the disrespect to the Super Eagles!

CapitalCee:
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.

How does someone make a tackle from a yard out?

Bameyi conceded such a penalty against Norway and you are talking about EPL as if they are the gold standard for officiating.

The hand was away from his natural position, if he was at the goal line and the same action prevented the ball from going into the net will you still say it wasn't a penalty

Joebie:
But Egypt were clearly better in the first half. they controlled the game and held possession better it seemed to me.

Yeah, in the first half Egypt were better, but they weren't out playing SA, SA weren't poor too.

Quality will always show, who big pass you big pass you, but SA will play you clean football even if they'd go on to lose. I'm not even trying to say I wanted South Africa to win or anything. My argument is simple – that South Africa are a good team.

God bless you my man. Simple oh, just simple.

exactly.. remove Osimhen it seems we are one man down. We lose character and the match just drags out.. Our team get serious problem.

minfelix:
omo bro make i no lie, we faced same pressure from DRC ooo🤣🤣🤣, the pressure from DRC was more than this oo, ours even dragged enter 120 mins….though the only difference is that we weren’t on red card….but that Osimhen wey no come back second half b like red card to me ooo🤣

I no gree for this one, in the past 10 or so years SA have leveled up and are now at our level if not slightly above (truth hurts), many of us were still stuck in the 90's and early 2000's until reality woke us up. Only part I agree with is us performing below our potentials

CapitalCee:
Lol. The call is not a penalty by the clear rule of the game, whatever the commentator is saying, he doesn’t know what he is talking about

i will still say it again if the call goes as Penalty, bro forget you no go mention rule here again🤣🤣…so now Commentator does not know what he is saying…na you know the rule pass them now…..oyaaaaaa 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻😅😂😂😂

Danielnino00:
It seems like the only way the super Eagles can play defensively compact like this is if we use a 3 man defense....

Yeah, but will this coach implement this? Tunisia will so carve us...

chuks404:
south Africa fit pip them 5
This particular SA team is technically good.

They should not allow Zimbabwe to score first sha cause they'll be likely frustrated more than today. Zimbabweans wey no kuku like them right from time

Bossoflife25:
The frustrating is that they make the loudest noise here! lol!

Many of them just want to argue. Some said we hare SA. So, just not to be called a hater, the rules should not be obeyed?

Remember, that Penalty decision for the Falcons against Morroco in the final, that one was even a clearer “handball”, but because Demehin’s hands was too close to where the shot was taken and while the hand is extended, it was deemed in natural position due to how she was. The penalty decision was rescinded in favour of Nigeria. That one Morroco was the host oo and in the Final

DR Congo tear us two goals wey VAR disallow abi you forget, for more than one goal to enter our net in that game whether disallowed or not highlights my point.

We are not stuck on the past.. We are stuck on our football development generally. The NFF has had no solid plans.

so in this respect dem no suppose dey mention thier name follow us if we have been serious about our football

He wanted to sound woke, so as not to look bias. Match wey Egypt wan kill SA.

Gbamsolutely. You understand English my boss! 💯

As per Own goal speculation, Simon could replace Chukwueze in the lineup tomorrow...



My opinion: if Chelle wants to play 4-4-2, he should drop Akor and partner Lookman with Osimhen...Lookman hardly plays as a winger in a 4-4-2, and that leaves us one man short on the flank...

We were onevman down against Zimbabwe and Lesotho? We were already a goal down against Tunisia before the red card. We did not capitulate as we had 55% possession in that game. Please give me a recent game where we capitulated after a red card.

They still find it hard with finishing especially in the bigger games, they will just be blasting the ball like as if they are in the PSL

you dey use pk knock out and female football argue.. We no dey go world cup, no forget.. Who do us like that?

Based on what metrics should SA not be discussed. SA eliminated the favorites in the last two editions! One of those team is 7 times Champion! That is not a small team.
My problem with most critics is that you assume the Super Eagles should be a perfect team that you yourself has not seen anywhere!

90% of Egyptian players, plays in Egyptian league.

Egypt were supposed to be gung-ho as they were one-nil up and one man down?

If SA weren't better with numeric advantage na when dem wan better?

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

And I'm the one sounding "wOkE"

If 2 shots from Egypt in the entire first half with only one on target (PK) is what you define as kill, all power belongs to you.
😂

JohnBullMySon:
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?

The rule states, when your hand is in a natural position & the ball hits your hand, it's not a penalty.
When you are falling, your hand naturally goes down to support your fall.

He was not called to VAR to blow penalty, he was called to review the initial free kick he awarded outside the box, which he finally overruled as well as the penalty call.

you and I know we have not been doing our homework football admin wise. Let's have that convo if we are doing things right to show our full potential. I am not taking anything from them. Good administration and a nice blueprint has made them a force today. Not necessarily talents.
