I dont blame him but Okoye, if Okoye was really ready to play for Naija, Nwabali for no dey do this nonsense.

Okoye was ready, but when they constantly bench him, what do you expect him to do

dominique:
He should still be given a chance to play

Sure.

See coincidence oo

The first Super Eagles match, Arsenal played that day

Arsenal played earlier today

Nigeria next game is on Tuesday, Arsenal also have a match on that day

Bamibor:
And, not once, twice or 3 times, literally every single time. You can clealry see the defeneders don't trust his ability to claim the ball in the air, hence they also jump with him to head the ball away, rather than live it to Nwabali, which further creates some uncertainty with the defending.


To be honest, that Okoye guy that plays for Udinese is a better goal keeper all round.

nwabali bet this game draw N10m. Don't you see that he doesn't dive

I'm yet to see Ghana play in this afcon. Did they not qualify? But they qualified for the world cup now .

Are you from Mars or Jupiter? Because Ghana did not qualify for nation's cup on earth here

GanagiBitrus:
FT 3-2

3pts in the Bag, Round of 16 secured.
Based on Head to Head rule, Top of Table is guaranteed.

Congrats Super Eagles.

That's good to know. We can rest our big boys as this could be important towards the business end of the competition, provided we get there. I hope the coaching crew can manage our players so they don't get fatigued towards the latter stages, again provided we go far.

Why Nigeria do like this nah watting the make me no watch their March self💀💀😠😡

MadPolitician:
You think Tunisians are push overs? You could have won more comfortably? The reason the Tunisians picked up pressure was because of the removal of Onyeka. Not because of Nwabali. This coach is too attack minded. When he removed Oyeka, he should have replaced him with Onyedika or another defensive midfielders. But he brought in attack minded midfielders and the midfield nearly collapsed as a result. Why bring in attackers after 70 minutes in a match you were winning by 3 goals?

Maybe they are not pushovers on paper, However they didn't play nothing that first 70 minute in this game and were there for the taking. I am.glad we won and I also don't dispute the impact the subs clearly had on the match..however, this doesn't absolve Nwabali of anything. We should be doing better than him.

The Super Eagles held on for a thrilling win! 🦅💚
Next up: Uganda on 30th December.

The best display i have seen so far of the Nigerian team. They played, they marked; man-to-man and space-for-space. To cap it all, they scored to earn a good victory.
Above all, the referee was very unfair to us.

I'm really tired of nwabali, anytime i see that guy on our goal post my heart will just start sounding gbimgbim, the guy is a minus 1, the Tunisia first goal diving of nwabali was funny.

tunapawizzy:
That hannibal boy from Tunisia nearly carnibalized us

Person wey dey answer Hannibal, you wan take am dey play?
A very revered and respected name in that country.

🤣🤣🤣 The bad mouth commentator called him flatfoot.

[color=#006600][/color]Nigeria self na wa ho

APOPTOSIS:
Very poor performance.
How can someone with 70% Ball Possession have only 2 shots on target?
What can explain this please, 😭😭😭🙆🏾‍♂️🙆🏾‍♂️

Everything no be blame. How many shot on target Barca dey get with their possession

Lol. If you support both teams, you suffer today. Unnecessary tension which could've been avoided.

Someone tell me what happened to us towards the end of this match
How on earth did we implode giving opponent confidence to attack us like that
Our game management is so poor, we almost threw away 3 goal lead
Osai side was overloaded knowing he and Ajayi were the weak links in our defence
We cannot rely fully on nwabali cuz he's unstable

osquareone:
I don't know what kind of coach would remove the engine of the team for a winger? You don't remove Onyeka. He is the engine of that mid field and defence. Instead, remove Lukman for a defender instead. He is not a coach at all. Our local coaches would not make this blunders.

The same engine that shutdown during match with the DRC or another engine?

I was watching him today, there is something going on in that boy's head. It is only him that knows. Some keepers have this madness in them. We should just pray for him. What our alternatives on the bench? I am not so sure about Uzoho.

helinues:
He had a classic touch that almost score. That stopping ball on air touch is world class

Yeah!
He played well but couldn't settle as Nigeria was much under pressure towards the end of the game. He was better than Simon

You don't know football
It was the sub that scatter the formation.

Moses Simon to come. And do what? Removing our best defensive midfielder and putting a shallow dribbler

Wordson:
We won at last..
I knew it would be a tough one...

Thank God we won!!
We need that trophy as consolation for not making it to world cup

Then prepare to forgo your consolation, cos that trophy ain't coming to Naija.
Look for something else to console you...maybe the hope of Arsenal winning the EPL.

blackmantis:
🤣🤣🤣 The bad mouth commentator called him flatfoot.

the commentator wasn't wrong. Do you notice the last 2 goals Tunisia missed? Nwabali couldn't dive to make an effort

ThunderFireAgba:
The same engine that shutdown during match with the DRC or another engine?

If u are not blind... U will know he was not in the line up of that match... But u guys don't know who is a footballer. Onyeka is our stabilizer of midfield take it or leave it

Thank you very much.

Nwabali is so annoying to watch

Ghana didn't qualify for the AFCON

The guy is good. You cant be too perfect. This is football

enemyofprogress:
I hate this our goalkeeper, nwabali or whatever he calls himself

MadPolitician:
Nwabali did nothing wrong today. His time wasting antics were on point. So you just want to play or do you want to win? He was not at fault for the penalty so I don't know why you guys are mad at him. The defenders should have dealt with the 1st goal. In all the Eagles played well most of the time today.

He's not a bad goalkeeper. But not naturally fit to be a goalkeeper. A goalkeeper should be light and flexible. Nwabali looks like a bouncer.

OriOko88:
How did we come about nwabali?? So Nigeria doesn't hv a quality keeper that plays in top flight European league that can rep us well. Omase oo

That goalie na basket. The ref also almost cost us the match by removing key players. His thoughtless subs hated the fluidity of of our play. He shiuld take nite of these few mistakes or else, we dey vome home soon o. Our defenders don't trust that yeye goalie.

When will we yank off nwabali oooo

Bamibor:
He did the right thing there, the keeper and Tinisian defence would have anticipated a lay up for Osomhen who could have as well missed. The keeper simply made a great save.

Still better than taking a shot that far off.

These are the little details that seperate how european teams link up compared to African teams

VeeVeeMyLuv:
How can you take off Oyenka your defensive midfielder? You are underestimating the Tunisians ehn? Mr Coach North Africans are very cunny and this is their backyard.

This coach was lucky

.
That was a very stupid decision to make. That was when our midfield became almost paralysed and the Tunis began to move freely into out box 18. This coach should learn from his mistakes or else we are gone!
