e really tire person.
Mujtahida:
This midfield palaver is a mystery. What exactly is the problem? Ever since Mikel said Onazi retired, we have been struggling with our midfield. Everybody knows we have midfield problem, still the problem persists - coach after coach, still same problem. I don tire.

Chrisantus oo, still, Akinsanmiro, still. I really don't understand.

Game day!

Optimistic of a good result.

Expect a tactically disciplined and wily Tunisian team but our individual superiority should help us carry the day God willing.

Let's go Super Eagles!
on a good day , if the boys plays with their strength and discipline , they can beat any team , my worry is lack of seriousness and focus .more reason why they lose one game and win game ,,,

But I've noticed referees hardly favour us in games. In fact even for clear fouls on our players, you would hardly see them issuing cards. I'm not sure any team has even hard a player sent off against us in recent times.

I no fit watch the video because of region restrictions. wetin he talk?
Journalist asked him about one of his players, Coulibaly, and Tom narrated how Sassuolo wanted to restrain him from being at AFCON and when he refused they stopped playing him.

He also pointed out the disdain of Europe for the AFCON and the bending over for a quadriennial tournament.

I can see you ceded possession to the Tunisians yet restricted their shots against you. Guy, u be Mourinho's #1 protege? Lol

Only 4 players from this XI back in 2021 are in the present 2025 Afcon Squad.

Benin Republic win their first game in 15 AFCON matches.

They previously had 10 defeats and 5 draws.

Congrats to Genort Rohr.

This SE team is soft in the sides. Ola Aina's absence and Zaidu's dip in form are the major contributory factors. Any serious organized team will focus on our flanks to cause issues.

The 3-5-2 formation masked the weaknesses of this team whilst amplifying the strengths.

3-4 passes leading straight to a goal chance. That is quick transition play. No time wasted. We would need that at some point in real game action vs Tunisia today abeg.

not much has changed in terms of structure tho. We still play a game that leaves the bulk of the defensive midfield work to ndidi.

Nigeria vs Tunisia has always been cagey, 1-0, 1-1, so who scores first matters, don’t expect goals.

But I don’t know I have this feeling we might be pleasantly surprised with a Nigeria 3-0 win.
Yes always Cagey. But due to their recent form and our soft defense I predict 4-1 for Tunisia.
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by TheSuperNerd(m): 4:07pm On Dec 27, 2025
This is why we need to switch to a balanced 3-man midfield with a double pivot and a 3-man central backline that becomes 5-man when the wingbacks fall back into defensive mode. This way we keep our offensive and defensive game balanced. None suffering because of the other.

Tolu Arokodare in action from the start vs Liverpool and he just recovered from a knock that kinda delayed play a bit.
