What a front 3.

Super Eagles on Fire!!!

The 4312 is Hell vs any team.
The coach should educate his team on the importance of team spirit.They should be more selfless;pass the ball to a free teammate or one in a better position infront of goal.
Gracias.

Did you observe that after Osimhen shouted at Lookman, Lookman began to release the ball quicker?
He stopped all the needless stunts and dribbles
That's all Osimhen was saying..
Pass the ball on time
Una no need all this leg over
And that’s what led to the 4th goal by Akor o

Leave Nigerians with their self righteous attitude

I swear. After all, what did he do today that is extraordinary? Two tap-ins and he thinks he's Lewandowski.

Bench that fraud make him head cool. Heaven will not fall. Unless he apologizes to the team and never repeats this again.
Inasmuch as osi didn't manage his emotions well tonight, I DON'T AGREE WITH THE BOLDED. Let me believe you spoke out of anger

Next time make carry he outburst go dressing room sha. But he is on point for demanding the best at all times.

I've seen a thousand different scenarios of players that were right 100% but they didn't react the way VO reacted tonight. We don't need that one bit. Not at the expense of team spirit. How will the very one that wants team play be the very one that wants to crack team spirit with such attitude? Make he take am jeje abeg. No be only him waka come.

Osimhen is the most important player in this team.

He is always unselfish infront of goal.You recall the pass from Osimhen that Onuachu failed to convert b4 scoring via FDB assist.

Lookman should be more of a team player.We are grateful, he has a knack of assisting his team mates.

Akor's is understandable because he is yet to register a goal in this tournament.

This team needs a happy and motivated Osimhen.


They wouldn't have qualified without him.

He deserves some respect from his teammates.

We are yet to play Senegal and DR Congo, which I consider the best teams in the tournament.
You are right
Nothing to add

I thought he didn't play the second half cos he was injured or something?

minfelix:
leave that one na🤣🤣….until Osimhen attitude cost us another serious match na that time dem go know…all of us just dey act as if we dont know his attitude made us not to qualify for the world cup…very nonsense attitude….
Fight with opponents Fight with team mate
score goal still dey fight linesman
Fight fight everytime!!
TUFIAKWA!!
OSIMHEN NOT COMING OUT FOR THE SECOND HALF MADE US LOSE THE WORLD CUP INERCONTINENTAL PLAYOFF TICKET…period!!

im sure he has gone inside the dressing room to fight and quarrel dirty that saw is puppeting to DRC in the remainder of that game

Diavolo:
I'm trying to understand something here,the two monikers that are defending osihmen actions,do you guys think na una love am pass or what. We should be able to separate fanship from reality and condemnation of a behavior isn't hatred or beefing the person. Oshimen behavior is unacceptable. He should be made to apologize to the whole team and even the fans for walking out on them. Next time he does this he should be sent home from the camp. The team is greater than the individual parts. Na everytime he go dey shout for other players,as per na hin gather all of them now. Respect is important and all players must respect each other
NFF created this nonsense when they condoned Osimhen's public rant on Finidi, a national team coach and a true Super Eagles legend o!

Osimhen even openly said he doesn't care if he never gets called up again to the SE as a result of insulting Finidi. Imagine person wey for dey Olusosun dey hawk gala if not for NFF wey put am for U-17.

Once you see poor man from poor family with poor education wey mistakenly see small money, you must know.

You probably need to go check the game again cause none of this has anything to do with Lookman. The issue Osimhen had was with Osayi Samuel who decided to go for glory twice instead of passing the ball to Victor who was better placed. Lookman only got involved because Osimhen got in Osayi's face about it.

Lookman can be indecisive sometimes but selfish or seeking personal glory isn't how you'll describe him this tournament. He literally leads the assist for the team. There was a chance today where he should have hit the ball, but thought too much about it and decided to pass it (bad idea by the way), but that one play showed me he was looking to get his teammates more involved than ever.

Victor messed up full stop and no explanation can discount is bad behaviour today.

I'll quote as many persons propagate this false narrative.

Again, Lookman had nothing to do with the play Osimhen was angry at, go watch it again. His grouse was with Osayi who decided to shoot instead of passing the ball (and that was the second time he was doing this). His issue with Lookman was because Lookman took exception to him getting in Osayi's face the way he did.

Lookman was many things in today's game, selfish wasn't one of them.

Stop trying so hard to explain that bad attitude from Victor Osimhen plsssss. We don't need pampering for that display. Will you extend similar defending to another teammate? Definitely not!! So call a spade a spade abeg.
Infront of National TV!
Shouting to your fellow team mates with MILLIONS WATCHING WORLDWIDE. Including their families and relatives? Shouting to a breadwinner like he is a toddler??
He get luck I no dey that team, otherwise 2 hot heads cannot be in a ship. Na Anger issues make me stop playing football cos I no dey take nonsense from coaches talkless of fellow teammate. Na wetin stop me progressing after trials in Europe.

Why did Osihmen lash out to Lookman? Thats very Childish, is he the only person to score? Lookman is clearly performing better than him in this tournament, Let it not be that he is jealous oo. He needs to keep his head down, this his attitude should not be tolerated. Him and Lookman are the same level in football. He needs to manage his ego

But actually Osimhen has arrived, let's not forget he literally carried this team when lookman and the rest were all playing rubbish, he could have done better with his temper tonight though but let's not disrespect him and pretend we don't know his quality.
Let him not disrespect his teammates naaaa….baba Osimhen dey disrespect his teammates simply becos he is our point man/main man….he dey disrespect his team mates abeg

This SE team is going to be a nightmare for any team in this tournament. It will take a lot to edge them. The QF against DRC/Algeria is going to be spicy.

This team is currently in it's peak...the team needs to win something after the WC failures.
I want that DRC/Algeria game to go to penalties. Hopefully with enough fatigue or injuries, either team might be easier to subdue in the QF.

I no see wetin happen sha, my network seized for over 10 minutes, I didn't even see Akor's goal.

But with all I've read here, Osimhen may have acted rashly, but it's not for the wrong reason. It's not like in this same match we have not seen them attempt to shoot when he's very open to score and he didn't say anything, right from the first half. He as a top 9 is our most unselfish player who plays for the team always, is it so hard for the other players to just reciprocate?

I really don't like the way he handled it, but sometimes emotions can take over anybody, and I mean anybody, so stop judging and do the calms, they'll sort out whatever it is in the dressing room.

And as for minefelix saying he "refused" to come out for second half against DR Congo in the WCQ, please die that agenda. It's very false.

Dude is gradually becoming an agent of the devil within the squad, he wants to be the highest goal scorer and I will advise the coach to bench him against our next opponent, if we lose we come home all courtesy illiterate egoistic mumu Osi

Na why I dey vex for am. Osimhen himself has killed forward plays many times, wasted and missed many opportunities. I don't know why he's acting as if he's perfect. He himself is not perfect, and he's angry at others who are also imperfect but even better than he is.
Some people are saying we cant play without him, thats a fat lie, yes has more quality than other alternatives but we can play without him. His 2 goals today were tap ins which anyone can score.

Baba forget talk, let's call a spade a spade and not a shovel. Those goals do not excuse his disgusting attitude, and no, this has no thing to do with Nigerians chasing perfection.

His actions can actually cause an indelible damage to this spirit and growth of this soaring side.

What message do you send when your coach can't control, caution, or calm you? How long will this continue? Do we keep excusing this outburst every single time?

Did you forget how a similar situation partially affected our chances of winning the game against DRC?

Abeg, make them hire a psychologist for am.
Go and be the psychologist nah 😂

Una win Abi Una no win. Where Una go see 4 goals if osihmen no score Oya bench him for the next game make we see how many goals Una fit score?

I don’t do sentiments as far as Osihmen is doing his job and that’s to score goals make Una carry all these Una moral instructions go podcast.
