Assistant from Remo? Person wey de do IT

😂😂😂😂😂

SymphonyRad:
I'll take Uzoho at this point over Nwabali, time to end this madness.

This is not the Nwabali we knew last AFCON. What jas happened to that guy??

Subzero0477:
I watched Eric Chelle's Mali play beautiful football at the last Afcon and wondered whether he could replicate it with the Nigerian side and now he's doing it showing that he's a top class coach but unfortunately his weakness of grinding out results has followed him to our dear SE, hopefully he sorts that out too

He should have understood by now that even though attack wins games, defence wins titles, can he try this rubbish against say Morocco or Senegal and expect to scale through

ThunderFireAgba:
Honestly, Chelle and the Team did a good job today. Imagine beating a high ranking team comfortable out-played them?
If not for the carelessness and stvpidity of a guy who calls himself goalkeeper that mounted pressure on his team mates, the game would have ended 3-0.
NFF, Chelle, I don tell una.

the Tunisian undoing today was coming to play defensive style and trying to hit us on counter ,Onyeka ,spoilt the plan kudus to Chelle , for neutralising the plans , a nice game so far ...unfortuantely the scoreline didnt translate what the Tunisians went through

JohnBullMySon:
But tbh the handball was legit. Why don’t you think so? The pushing was just me on a lighter note. Forget that one. I was joking. Just pointing out the fact that you can’t have your hands out like that almost pushing someone and then someone thinks the hand is in a natural position.

Bro
Even if you like playing the antagonist, Try playing it with sense. Go and rewatch that scene again. It was mever a handball, he wasn’t even looking at the ball. Use your head na. Na be everyday you go Dey clown around.

lbrichman2:
Meaning Chelle can easily draw a 4:0 game from a winning position

This man has decimated our confidence in his ability
He should be sacked after the AFCON

In fact I have lost confidence totally, it looks like when you think the team has begun to click then Chelle goes into a coven to cast a spell.

Before the game started I was so nervous even my wife was begging me to calm down. When we were 2-0 nil up I said it here we just need to keep possession and wound up the game. I had concluded that the eagles have wrapped this up. I was even shouting that osihmen must not be substituted cos I know Chelle I didn’t even know he had other demonic antics. Noooooo this is a disaster. This man will finish us up soon. Dem send am to destroy us.

jihday:
we have 3 useless keepers, this is very embarrassing

I can even manage two. But immediately i saw Uzoho back in the fold, i laughed hardddd. I knew powers that be have done their thing again.

FiveFootNinja:
I swear! If he knew he wasn't going to have any need for Akinsanmiro or Nnadi, then what the hell did he invite them for? Kuku carry 11 players only na! Rubbish!!

I don't understand how a coach would invite players for a tournament and not use them once in the tournament. It irks me.

ThunderFireAgba:
This people talking about Chelle this and that, I don't know what you would have done if that bouncing header Nwabali was looking at entered the post?
Perhaps you would have blamed Chelle for the goal too?

thank you . Nwabali is very stupid. Even the first goal, his reaction was very lackadaisical. Okoye will stop that ball. Why was he forming injury? Very nonsense player

Good evening guys

We will talk about Nwabali and his carelessness, time wasting and lack of positional awareness on another day.

For today, please, anybody wey know Chelle, tell am say the rubbish wey he do today, make he no try am again. Nigeria had total control of the game, we were playing Tunisia out of the park, only for him to do those ridiculous substitutions. What are you bringing on 2 wingers for when you’re 3 goals up? How do you remove the DM that is supposed to lock the gates and ensure the opposition doesn’t get through?

As soon as he made those subs, Tunisia ran riot on us. Ejuke lost ball at least 3 times, he is solely responsible for at least 3 attacks that Tunisia targeted at us, and when he had the opportunity to make up for his messy game, he fired shot straight at the keeper.

Again, please, anybody wey sabi Chelle, tell am make he know as he dey do those subs, before him brain overheat again. Just spoilt great game with nonsense substitutions.

The Ref clearly had no business giving that penalty. But then, when playing the North Africans especially in North Africa, it is best to cut off lifelines that give them hope.

If we had not taken off Onyeka, I doubt we would have let the game end this way. And even if Onyeka was to be taken off, then bring in another midfielder that can defend as well.
Chelle should kindly learn fast from this game. For 79mins, we delivered a true masterclass performance but his tactical decisions after min 79 nearly spoilt the good work.

The 4312 dynamic shape was a masterclass. Completely dominated and stiffled the Tunisians.

Chelle altered it, not for good but for the worse. He has to learn.


Ndidi, top game today. But please kindly cut out giving away fouls around our box. Abeg.

Thank you Super Eagles. We move.

TheSuperNerd:
See ehn, at this point, e tire me. Zaidu was bad last match. Chelle commot am, bring Bruno. At least make Bruno just manage abeg.
Thank God he has Bassey on his side of that defence.

Our LB role dey give me nightmares.

Reason why Chelle preferred Aina sometimes on the left

His hand was not in an unnatural position for someone jumping na. If the scenario was that Osayi was trying to head into the Tunisian net, would you consider the hand as being in an unnatural position?

Eric chelle should stop introducing Moses Simon and ejuke the same time. Maybe because the substitute work in Garbon game, he think it can work in other games. He should stop doing that.

Baba as at 70min Tunisia had 0 shots in the second half. If Chelle didn't fumble, they'd have not gotten beyond a consolation goal

minfelix:
wait wait wait🤣🤣🤣 this Nairalanders here think Tunisia will not fight back?……una think say na Djibouti una dey play….oh wait wait wait first…u want to be leading teams like Algeria,Morocco,Egypt,CIV,Senegal 3-0 and think they wont find a way to come back into the game….wether them remove Onyeka or not, so you people wanna beat Tinisia 3-0 handicap🤣🤣….una dey jonz

Truidstarr:
Okoye for no make those school boy errors today..

The next game that Okoye would probably start and then we lose or draw,all una we de clamor for Okoye now go change like chameleon.
Just like first when the team were playing well and praises were pouring and i was laughing knowing how easily mos fans changes, then some mistakes towards the end of the match,he suddenly becomes stupid.

This GK palava started from Sunday Oliseh. The early retirement of Vincent Enyeama led to all this rubbish.

From Ezenwa and Ikeme and Agbim down to Uzoho and Maduka, Nwabali. We can barely go into a game without fear of the GK doing something funny to our hearts.


Still, why is it hard to produce better GK sef? Onana 2.0 dey do IT and now it was a wasted spot. Amas is obviously here to watch.

Arghhhhh

Tunisia never had the intention of being defensive. Who told you that ? Nigeria pressed them and few times they lost the ball in dangerous areas they resorted to zonal marking. What are you even saying ? Did you even watch the match? Tunisia tried their pressing game but we were more dangerous

ThunderFireAgba:

The game would have ended 3-1 if our midfield didn’t collapse due to Chelle carelessness.

The pitch was slippery after a rainfall and Nwabali slipped. That can happen to any keeper. The players were all ok today but the coach

Omooo this is very scary to meditate on

Bro, when I saw that AFCON list, na the goalkeepers list demoralize me pass. I was so irritated.

In the history of Nigeria, we have never been plagued by this many terrible goalies. What I would give to have Ezenwa or even Akpeyi as an option again…chai! This thing worse pass trenches. If we face a proper team, all those dem Senegal, Morocco, even South Africa, e go too bloody.

How did Okoye not make the list? Is Chelle scared that he will be outshined in beauty by another laiskin boy? I would have preferred to have an Okoye on the bench, than the options we currently have. I’m so irritated, and tonight was going so well.

MetalJigsaw:
This is not the Nwabali we knew last AFCON. What jas happened to that guy??

His personal family issues and lack of competition. He's kept about 90% of our matches since he stood between the sticks.

Nwabali is the weapon fashioned against us. Look at the silly goal he conceded. I am livid because Eric Chelle had the time to scout a goalkeeper but refused to. Arthur Nwankwo dey Wrexham FC in the same English Championship league wey Ryan, Osayi and Ajayi dey but e no see am.

Now we are stuck with Nwabali with the absence of Okoye because the other keepers are worse. Maduka too no try, he should be axed from the Super Eagles forever.

Poor game management, wrong substitutions were made by Chelle. He shouldn't have removed Onyeka. He shouldn't have made two substitutions at once. He should have only removed Akor for another midfielder, maybe Akinsanmiro or Nnadi. Moses Simon and Ejuke were not required in this game.

The same Ejuke who came in had a chance to pass to Osimhen for our 4th goal but went for personal glory and missed.

Anyways, I am glad the boys held on for the three points because that was the most important thing. Uganda next......

You are uncouth. Please kindly F off. Last time you were issuing stupid threats over discussions.

Okoye should have used his head, now we are through to the next round easily he would have in goal for the final game. I still think if we qualified for the World Cup okoye would be in this Afcon. The World Cup was his goal

but you know dey started having small hope after that setpiece goal…that was before Onyeka was subbed oo….i knew if they score a goal, they will bring out their own attacking instincts…its just great to see super eagles dominate and beat a top African team 3-0 till 70mins….although chelle really messed up removing Onyeka….
Onyeka and Ndid should be starting and ending matches.
Anyways todays game put 9ja in the light of being one of the favorites…..its not easy dominating a top 6 african team like that….i see us getting to the Semifinals for now shaa

Hello mummy, they about to sub me in today nothing again

Nwabali no be am. Make we just put am for prayers and hopefully make e sit down with a psychologist, make we manage am. Okoye is better.

Wait what is the job of those Nigerian assistant coaches sef. That was a poor substitution

The pressure from the opponent was from Hannibal. Just substitute one of lookman or akor for an extra midfielder and we good,
Moses simon and ejuke failed to help defensively...by the way Bruno had a massive game today

Okoye wanted guarantee of first choice which he was not given so he opted out of the squad.

He should face his club career and forget about playing for the team ever again.

It was those balls that were lost by Ejuke that actually gave the Tunisians chance to attack. It now seems he was introduced to play against us😟
