Calvin Bassey is trending on social media... despite Nigeria semi finals lose to Morocco

Same call him Nigeria's minister of defense, some say he is the Rock

And one said

Win or lose, some performances leave a lasting mark. 🦅💪

Calvin Bassey stood tall for Nigeria at AFCON 2025 — warrior mentality, every game.

Do you know that real Madrid and Moroccan Star man Brahim Diaz scored in every game in this AFCON and leading the goals scorers chart with 5 goals.
But when he meet Calvin Bassey
He became impotent and resort to different antics till they changed him
Calvin Bassey simply silence him

Man was playing the central defence all by himself. Ajayi was sloppy throughout the match.

Something was telling me the Super Eagles wouldn't win the African Cup because the Blood of those slained by the bandits are speaking against this APC - led government crying out to God for justice.

Ajayi was a total short 1 in that match. The game wouldn't have gotten to penalties if not for Bassey. We for collect wotowoto from Morocco.

.. isn't it high time we stop saying penalty is a game of luck or anybody's game?

It is about who plays it better. Skill is not luck.

That means your prayer still remains because Calvin bassey will be absent during Nigeria vs Egypt match

COMRADES, honestly Calvin's performance yesterday was great
But, wait a minute, why Osimen no see ball play yesterday?
Re: Calvin Bassey Super Eagles Defender Is Trending Despite Nigeria Semi Final Lose by Sensiblerealist(m): 10:00pm On Jan 15
That guy gave his all. He was absolutely rock solid and should be in the team of the tournament. Chelsea and Man U, please apply within lol
Re: Calvin Bassey Super Eagles Defender Is Trending Despite Nigeria Semi Final Lose by ravensckar(m): 10:03pm On Jan 15
Calvin's performance yesterday was stellar!

Dude gave the Morrocan attackers a tough time. Although I've always respected him as a committed player, but after yesterday, my respect for him knew no bounds.

Unlike somebody that chewed gum, walked like a model and passed his penalty kick to the opponent's goalkeeper. Chukwueze, omo ale jati jati. angry angry

African warrior. The bull. The Intimidator. The enforcer.

I offer my salute.

It was the way he played the P.K that annoyed me. Not because he missed it.

Na wao.
Is it the same Ajayi that blocked some shots could have resulted in goals or another one?

Calvin Bassey stood out but Ajayi, Bruno and Osayi Samuel also gave their all.

I repeat, Ajayi defended well.

He played well, honestly, he's got 1000 horsepower

All the other defenders gave their all.

Osayi Samuel kept pressure on the Moroccan players because he kept going forward to attack. Who covered for him?
Ajayi.
