Is it a must to host and win Afcon?
These Morocco own is too much,the intimidation against their opponents is too much,and CAF is unable to do anything about it.
For this final I go with Senegal to win the trophy.

I'm suspecting Samuel was bought by the Moroccan.

The most stupid penalty I have ever witnessed in a football match.

Amalekki:
In fairness to Senegal with regards to your point, they hosted in 1992 and cheated nobody. They did not win.

Also, Nigeria was even cheated in the final in Lagos as co-host in 2000. Nigeria cheated nobody.

That's why i said ALMOST every host wins it, I'm aware of your point boss.

Na wa oooooo. AFCON nor go stop this corruption

Boycott the AFCON final

Outplayed Nigeria with ref and linesmen abi. U really funny o

Documenting the questionable decisions by this Ghanaian referee (Nigeria vs Morocco):

18’
Brahim kicks the ball out. The referee blows against Osayi and gives the throw-in to Morocco.
Note: There were wrong calls before this, but let’s start here.

22’
Brahim clearly handballs while trying to chest the ball. No whistle.

32’
Bassey is given a yellow card for an action that wasn’t even a foul.

34’
Clear foul on Ezzazouli not given.

36’
Another obvious foul ignored.

51’
Lookman is clearly pulled. No foul.

52’
Onyedika goes for a fair 50-50 ball. The referee blows against him.
It feels like Nigeria is not even allowed to touch a Moroccan shirt.

58’
Osayi is simply marking Ezzazouli. Suddenly, a free kick for Morocco.

65’
Ezzazouli blasts the ball away. No yellow card.

68’
The ball never leaves the field, yet the referee gives a throw-in to Morocco.
Even Moroccan players look confused.

88’
Free kick given to Hakimi when Moses Simon clearly didn’t touch him. It should have been Nigeria’s corner.

92’
Moses Simon cleanly wins the ball from Hakimi, but the referee calls a foul, stopping a clear counterattack.

93’
Clear foul on Onyeka. Referee waves play on.

99’
No yellow card for Brahim after pulling Bruno and stopping an attack.

102’
No yellow card for Igamane after stopping Osayi’s attack.

103’
The referee blows against Bashiru for absolutely nothing.

115’
Clear foul on Osayi. Completely overlooked.

When every call is against you, it will be difficult to progress with the ball. It will affect you psychologically. The officiating clearly targeted the psychological state of the players during play, using it as a weapon to distabilize the team.

ok what about d penalties what did U still have to say about that one was chikwueze paid?

Morocco have brought their CAF champions league behaviour to AFCON
Smh

Egypt & Cameroun hosted in 2019 and 2022
They didn’t treat people like this

I hope CAF doesn't do ojoro and let Senegal win because they will want Morocco to win by all means.

same will be said if Nigeria or any country u belongs to host a tournament. I watched all or 95% of afcon, I never see where Morocco robbed people. Even with their style of play alone, you should know they are trying their best.

I know. But Senegal will still win.

I appreciate.

ufotunang:
..referee will favour morrocco..CAF wants morrocco to win it

Freshtruth:

U know whether dat match for reach penalty if the ref allow us play? Even with the bad officiating Nigeria still drag d match enter penalty. Stand up and clap for the team

How can people seeing your training affect yout performance?

Some teams in Europe use same training ground before matches. And some are so close, that you can see everything from a high building

Go and train and play football abeg. This one na excuse in case them lose

Everytime Nigeria no win, they have been cheated..What a mentality...

Morocco claim they're not African, so they will never carry the afcon

Have you seen the footage what the Moroccans did to Nwabali at the back of the post..!

I know and understand what you mean brother. I even spoke about it before the match and hoped the boys and their management would expect it and find a way to beat the odds against them. It's demoralizing, true and it can even affect their output in a penalty shoot out. I jhus dey talk as I know how to. Beating the odds against you and rubbing it all in the eyes of those against you has some kinda beauty no one can deny.. Whatever, the milk don spoil already, they couldn't be disappoint the ref and all those expecting their failure, do make e rest.

Prince16:
You nor really sabi too much!
Izit only maggi that makes your soup tasteful?? Nor be until you add all the other ingredients??

By the time they/referee
1. Monitor your training so as to know how to tackle your key players/know how and where your players place their penalties,

2. Distract your 'nwabali' by openly and shamelessly stealing his items/throwing things at him while the officials turn blind aiz.

3. Gives 100% of 50-50 calls to morroco

4. Award penalty kick against your team

5. Deny u obvious penalty

6. Cancel your open-play goals as offside

7. Blows the whistle when he sees your moves will likely result in a goal

8. Allow bono to move before your 'bruno onyemachi' plays his penalty kick [/b] - as against fifa stipulated rules,

9. Give your star player/'calvin bassey' a yellow/red card for an offense committed by a morrocan player.

10. Demoralize your players with obvious biased officiating such that they can't execute their game-plan no more

11. Frustrate your fans from gaining access into the stadium by hiking the ticket fee (beyond their teach) all of a sudden

12. etc,

na dt time your aiz go clear!

No need arguing with them biko; when caf/fifa reason your matter, e don set for u be that!

Shey na d chelsea vs barca 2012 ucl semi-final we want talk, abi na wetin!

If caf/fifa want to fully100% humble you, they can/will make a referee from your own country officiate your match and be biased against you!

The problem is that CAF will pretend like they are not hearing. The antics of the Moroccans is very nauseating. There is fair play in their dictionary

I was told they also refuse to sell tickets to Nigerians in Morocco during the semi final game

DoctorAyukebot:

Abi, just give them another stadium and drones will be over head watching.

I thought training is for fitness. Tactics are being discussed inside. Senegal just dey find agenda.

CAF is a corrupt organization in Africa. You wanna tell me they didn't know this before now? This is how they bring bad names to our continent. How on earth will you allocate only 2 VVIP tickets to a finalist.....tuehhh

blowjohn:
let's get this straight. the refereeing was not bad or terrible; rather, it was a deliberate, well planned and executed work of fraud. those are two different things. a ref can be terrible in decisions but this was influenced and had the backing of people. have we not lost in the semis or finals before? this was the ref and morroco collaborating together.they will do what they did to Cameroon and Nigerian to Senegal.
Anytime Nigeria wants to pressure the Moroccan defense, they will lie down on the ground and the Ref will blow like his life is tied to their downfall.
if u think Senegal will win tomorrow... well nothing is impossible especially if they can shoot from outside and score....at some point super eagles were so careful not to go close to the Morrocan players in our box 18. even if the Senegalese team put up a prime Brazilian or barca performance, if the ref is against them, they will lose!

We just hope it would be better and not as clear as the past.

otipoju:
It was very deliberate. One Ghanian center referee was put in charge on the field, one South African was put in charge of VAR and another was an Assistant Referee. Then they were both supported by officials from our recent opponents in the in the AFCON group stages such as Tunisia, Mozambique and then Lesotho from the world cup qualifying.

We like giving excuses too much in this country. A south African was put in charge of VAR, and what wrong var call did he make against Nigeria?
Did the Ghanaian refree blow for a penalty kick against you or did he give the Moroccans a penalty kick against you?
Was there a corner kick the linesmen deny you? Did they also cancel any goal you scored or allowed Morocco score an offside goal?
Did they also make you lose your penalty kicks?
Are they also the ones that put Oshimen to sleep on the field?
We just like looking for excuses all the time

Don't mind them. They are intimidated already and have already conceded defeat. They're just giving us reasons and excuses to understand their loss in advance

You forgot to add the part where a Nigerian defender handled the ball in the 18 yard box and the ref ignored the calls of the Moroccans 🤣
Excuses everywhere.
Shebi Chukwueze was paid too

Inconsistency in calls is a moral dampener.

Calling fouls for Morocco over the same fouls that he did not call for Nigeria.

We lost. We were clearly outplayed.
If the penalty call he ignored when a Nigerian player handled the ball in the box was done to Nigeria we will still be talking about it till tomorrow. We're not a serious nation and it shows in the way we always give excuses
