I'm not even worried about those ones, it's the quarters from the Algeria DRC winner I'm looking forward to already but I pray DRC qualifies

I foresee a CIV vs Nigeria final rematch.

Let me add, on the condition that we get our midfield combinations right, with Onyedika among the pack

This tie will be defining for the South Africans, win and they establish themselves as African big boys lose and years of hard work down the drain, I'm expecting Dr Congo to establish a physical superiority over the Algerians, My Mali to win against a lackluster Tunisia, it will be bloody for the North Africans in this round

Okay, indulging your angle for a moment this is what we will have.

Onyedika-Ndidi-Onyeka then Iwobi in the hole behind Osimhen and Lookman 2-man attack? Hmmm.

Is this it?

Sometimes ehn, overtinkering can scatter a good thing.

And yes ofcourse, Chukwueze wont start in this setup as seen vs Tunisia. So it is indeed a selection headache.
Exactly what I had in mind when I posted earlier

Just watched the Mozambique vs Cameroun highlights and my observations are;
1. They play a high defensive line, so if our forward players watch the lines, we could beat their offsides trap and punish them. Cameroun did a lot of that but couldn't take their chances.
2. They struggle with crosses in the box, so hopefully we get good crosses in for Air Marshall Osimhen and Akor, also use our corner kicks well with Ajayi and Bassey. Am tempted to say Onuachu should start ahead of Akor sef so we could probably use our height advantage well.
3. On the flip side, those guys can shoot for Africa, it's essential our midfielders try as much as possible to prevent them from taking too many good shots at our goal.
4. Lastly hopefully, favor and luck doesn't turn its back on us. By Jah's Grace, we shall overcome.

we have him in the bag and his addition would have helped the team but his absence gave Chelle the opportunity to look at other players

Zaidu and Osayi really need to sit up
Sure thing. His absence paved the way for Alebiosu. Na so life dey. One man calamity na another man chop chop

According to which rule? That's exactly what happened and he promptly got carded for it.
Equatorial Guinea captain Carlos Akapo & Josete Miranda suspended for four games for abusing the referee after their 1-0 loss to Sudan at #AFCON2025

The two players "repeatedly uttered insulting and obscene remarks" towards match officials after the game.


In football, if you insult any of the referees you’ll be severely punished for it

But you addded Morocco who last wom AFCON 40 years ago and has been to less WC than Tunisia. Im African Football Tunisia is more of a power house than Morocco and Senegal.

The real Power House in African football are Cameroon, Egypt, Nigeria, Ghana Tunisia and Algeria

Tunisia is not a powerhouse , infact Tunisia is a waste of slot at the world cup . When last Tunisia played semi finals at AFCON?
18 matches at the world cup
3 wins ,5 draws and 10 losses. They have never progressed beyond the group stage.
Senegal played quarter finals in 2002 and round 16 in 2022.

You get am. I actually think AFCON was better at 16 teams, similar to the 16 team Euros. Imagine an AFCON with just these 16 teams

Nigeria, Egypt, Cameroon, Algeria, Tunisia, Senegal, Ghana, Morocco, CIV, DRC, B. Faso, Mali, South Africa, Zambia, Benin, Sudan....

Even the group stages would be challenging. But once you get out of the group, straight to the last 8.
Lol. You need to invite small, small countries so they can feel among sometimes... that's the beauty of a tournament.

One word to describe Tunisia: Overachievers

They hardly ever produce one stand out player nor play any kind of spectacular football, but they always find a way to qualify for every major tournament...

Honestly, it's hard to and not tot classify them as a powerhouse
