I want to believe VAR is now making Refs lazy. Or maybe na the VAR people na the real lazy. Cos tell me why that simple decision is taking more than a minute.

Na offside nah. But I think the dive would still be given because there was contact.

Noticed same but for quite a while. Krepin Diatta was a breakout winger for Senegal back at the 2019 Afcon where he was crowned best young player. We all remember that edition where Senegal reached the final losing to Algeria that knocked us out in the semis (Mahrez FK).
As time went on though, his versatility on the right as a winger/wingback/rightback shone through more often and has been listed as a RB for Monaco recently and Senegal are using him just the same. This has been spotted since his Club Brugge days though as a wingback in a 3-5-2.

mostob:
Kreplin Diatta is now playing RB?

I thought he was a midfielder or winger that year

😂 This is how an offside goal was awarded to Morocco because of a fine bicycle kick

You dont need online databases when you have this pic here. Taller than Aina and Onyeka. He is definitely above 5ft 11 today.
aina is 5'8/5'9 and so is onyeka

na una dey overrate their height
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by Goke7: 5:48pm On Jan 03
Another offside goal 😂
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by FiveFootNinja(m): 5:49pm On Jan 03
Senegal 2-1 Sudan

So basically these guys just gave the Sudanese "Quarter final view once".
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by JohnBullMySon: 5:49pm On Jan 03
Offsides or not. Sudan go surely collect inside this match.
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by TheSuperNerd(m): 5:50pm On Jan 03
This latest Senegal goal is still offside. Ismaila Sarr was offside. If they give it, it is wrong.
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by Goke7: 5:50pm On Jan 03
What a tournament 😂
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by TheSuperNerd(m): 5:50pm On Jan 03
It is inevitable but the Senegalese have been bagging offside goals and they have decided to give one of them.

This senegalese squad though, no wonder they beat England in that friendly

Please list 20 current world class CB and tell me their height. Puyol, and the likes like mascherano (also played CB a lot) or even cannavaro are what you call outliers

Most world class CB are over 6ft 1 and you know it.

And Benjamin is 5'11 at best. Those online databases don't have their actual height and they overrate the hight of these players many times
You're clutching at straws.

Senegal is hot 🔥. I hope Nigerian team can see how to deal with underdogs ,don't wait till second half to be finding equalizer

Who is Sudan before Senegal surely they shall fall

If Sudan is to get anything out of this match, Abdullah must sharpen his shooting boots. And they must create space for him.
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by BankyGee(m): 5:55pm On Jan 03
Now that Cyriel Dessers has gone back to his club because of injury. Will he be replaced by another player from the provisional list?

He wasn't the Sudanese defender spread his leg which kept him on though tight he want off but I wonder why this tight one was quickly resolved while the obvious initial one was lengthy for no just cause
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by TheSuperNerd(m): 5:57pm On Jan 03
Aina does not look so in that pic. Onyeka looks taller than 5'8 too.

And Osimhen is not 1.86m then right?

Benjamin is taller than u paint. He is not "Semi-like" tall but he has decent height as a CB compared to Shorter CBs in Marc Guehi and Lisandro Martinez.

Gary Medel at 1.73m or even 1.71 was a CB who won Back to back Copa Americas and played InterMilan, Bologna and Sevilla.

So rest.

aina is 5'8/5'9 and so is onyeka

The officiating in this AFCON is quite below standard , I thought VAR will always be a great help but for this tournament confusion here and there . I hope CAF won't dash host the trophy with poor officiating
