South Africa should be Porto

K. Nwakali's next move -> Turkey
Wishing him all the best on a serious note. But he should be careful of his character too cos essentially he was fired from his last 2 teams. Whether the firings were wrongful or not, doesn't matter, he should do all he can to avoid such issues as he hopefully restarts his career.

I have written it here, Onyedika and Bashiru should always be the two subs in for Onyeka/Ndidi and Iwobi
in a 433 after 65-70minutes They both bring energy, technicalities, and shooting tech.
Joebie:
Onyedika (Uganda) vs Iwobi (Tunisia)

1. total long balls (map)
2. Key passes gives Iwobi the edge
3. Heatmaps

Nigeria as Real Madrid fits the Africa context. We should have had the highest number of titles if we had the referees and politics on our side like Real Madrid did! (1988, 1996, 1998, 2000, 2004)

Almost Perfect. However, I will make few changes.
South Africa - Portugal
Ivory Coast - Liverpool
Sarsaparilla524:
🚨 AFCON explained in club terms — if you’ve never really watched the tournament. 👀

African nations compared to European clubs… and suddenly everything makes sense 😅⚽

🇲🇦 Morocco = Arsenal
No matter their level or form, we all know how the story usually ends.

🇨🇩 DR Congo = England
A team full of hope every single year. They always say, “This is our year”… but it never happens.

🇬🇭 Ghana = AC Milan
A huge name with great history and trophies, but they failed to qualify this time.

🇧🇫 Burkina Faso = Tottenham
No matter how well they play, don’t worry — they’ll lose a match they were never supposed to lose.

🇩🇿 Algeria = Borussia Dortmund
They win a title once in a while. Champions in 2019 — don’t expect another one anytime soon.

🇨🇲 Cameroon = Chelsea
Just when you expect them to win a trophy, they always pull off something unpredictable.

🇳🇬 Nigeria = Real Madrid
Plenty of stars, not always the most beautiful football, but they always find a way to win.

🇨🇮 Ivory Coast = Atlético Madrid
They’re always around, and you never know when they’ll win — but when it happens, it’s a real shock.

🇸🇳 Senegal = Manchester City
A strong team without much history. First title in 2022, followed by plenty of disappointments.

🇿🇦 South Africa = Marseille
One trophy won a very long time ago. Since then, they’ve been living in nostalgia.

🇿🇲 Zambia = Leicester City
The ultimate underdog. They won AFCON mainly with local players — and no one knows if it will ever happen again.

🇪🇬 Egypt = Barcelona
They once dominated African football with trophies and beautiful play, but today they struggle to win.

🇬🇦 Gabon = Galatasaray
They attend every AFCON for purely touristic reasons.

🇲🇱 Mali = AS Roma
They love participating in AFCON, fully aware they’re not going to win it.

To the best of my knowledge, Eric Chelle has had closed door training with the Super Eagles squad only twice since he became head coach: one against Benin in the final WC qualifying game and the other against Tunisia just last week. We know how those games ended.

Eric Chelle is a masterchef. Hopefully he continues to deliver.

i think Nigeria should be Bayern not Madrid with our near success syndrome, getting to the finals on numerous occasions but winning just 3. Egypt for me is the Madrid of Afcon.

real madrid for where. Real madrid has way more wins than losses in final. Real madrid always unfailingly qualifies to the UCL every season no matter the form they are in. We have already missed 2 consecutive afcons and 2 consecutive world cup in the last 15 years. We also posses more silver medal and bronze than Gold. Please find another club to use as comparison

south africa are tottenham. Been a long while they won anything significant. Just properly qualified to the world cup since 2002. They will play well but you are certain they is a disappointment coming and they never fail to disappoint
