😂 I think CAF is just under pressure to protect the integrity of the game to avoid setting a bad precedent but this is what they should have been doing before that final game Their lack of consistency in integrity and fairness led Senegal to this mess!

For me it’s better they ban Senegal from the World Cup instead of stripping them of the Afcon title
Baba u don dey act like Barawo small small. U won steal Senegal mandate.

Na so Senegal dey do. First round dem don knock them out.
i expect all african teams to make the next round of this world cup. Even though some time last year, i analysed that some countries may not make the next round of the world cup. that analysis was done when i didn't take into consideration that the expanded world cup will also include more qualifying rounds to the final. After the group stage you have the 1/16,1/8,1/4, semi final and final stage. It will be criminal if any african country fails to make atleast the 1/16 stage. Im expecting in a worst case scenario atleast 8 out of the possible 10 african countries to make the next tound. If not let FIFA reduce our slot, we dont deserve those many slots .

the new world cup format states "the top two teams in each group and the eight best third-placed teams progressing to a new round of 32". Surely i am not overstating when i say 8 out of the 10 should make the round of 32 based on this.

You mean 8 out of the confirmed 9 African representatives
DRC never play play off yet
Dont Hope too much sha
African teams usually disappoint at the World Cup
Don’t be shocked when Norway Denmark Croatia handle them
Only team that would do well is Senegal, maybe Ivory Coast
Morocco will go far if they play defensive without the ball, that’s their strength
I wish Nigeria made it to this World Cup 2026
We have a close to complete squad
Imagine Benjamin Fredricks and Calvin Bassey at our defense
Osimhen, Adams & Lookman upfront
Chrisantus Uche on thé bench

https://allnigeriasoccer.com/a-formidable-nigeria-team-claude-le-roy-explains-why-morocco-lost-afcon-final-to-senegal

This is what I have been saying all this while! Yet the Moroccans created several chances to have won the game.

If the Senegalese had met us they would have lost woefully.
I find it funny the hype they got here, struggling against Mali, Benin, DRC, Sudan etc. lol

Which AFCON have we missed in the 2020s? The World Cup self we no pass round 2. The only AFCON the 90s won, they were fortunate to beat Ivory Coast on penalties in the semis and were mediocre against a Zambia 2nd string in the final! So what the hype about?
In the 2020s we lost the final to a very good host, and we lost the semis to a World Cup semi finalist on penalties. Lost the 2022 World Cup qualification to an away goal rule, a goalkeeping error, and lot of injuries. So what are you guys on about? Even if we lose this present case and made the 2030 World Cup. This generation will be the greatest Nigerian team in history!
Generation wey no fit qualify for world cup? and win afcon?
Pls how are they the greatest Nigerian team in history? with which trophy na?

World cup African groups preview

Group A
Mexico
S/korea
SA
UEFA play off team
SA forget you cant beat anyone here, the fast South Koreans?, Mexico host? UEFA play off team?….naaaa forget SA cant beat these guys

Group C
Brazil
Morocco
Haiti
Scotland
From Nigerian perspective, this is the easiest group, i see Brazil cruising past all of them…from a Nigerian perspective Morocco should beat Haiti and Scotland and qualify for round 32….the question is can they?

Germany
CIV
Ecuador
Curacao

CIV should drag that second spot with Ecuador to round 32

Group F
Netherland🇳🇱
Japan 🇯🇵
Tunisia 🇹🇳
One UEFA play off team

omo them go beat Tunisia like mumu for this group, even though if they hire eric chelle😂

Group G
Belgium
Iran
Egypt
New Zealand

If Egypt serious them suppose fight their arab brothers for that second spot to round 32

Group H
Spain
Capeverde
Uruguay
Saudi
Sorry to Cape verde, Spain and Uruguay will use their experience and power their way to round 32….they wont even beat those Saudi boys

Group I
France
Senegal
Norway
Intercontinental play off team

omo e go tough for Senegal oo, they should borrow a leaf from us….9ja always find a way to beat those small baby European newbies(Iceland,Bosnia,Greece,Bulgaria etc)
Senegal should qualify to round 32 from this group if they play good football

Group J
Argentina
Algeria
Austria
Jordan

Wetin “🇳🇬🇩🇿GERIA” do Argentina for this life🤣….anyways Algeria should struggle it out with Austria..those guys are technically sound too, the second position to qualify to round 32 is between them

Group K
Portugal
Uzbekistan
Colombia
Intercontinental playoff winner(DRC or Nigeria time will tell)
For DRC, they should just forget qualifying to round 32…Colombia and Portugal will so molest them and qualify for round 32…then if its Nigeria, both Portugal and Columbia should get ready to fight cos they have 3 record-historic world cup teams in that group, any of Nigeria,Columbia,Portugal can top that group

Group L
England
Croatia
Ghana
Panama
Hypegland will really hear it from those short short CROT boys as for Ghana, they still have a chance to fight for round 32…but shey na those ones wey no qualify to afcon wan beat Hypegland and Croatia?…anyways lets see sha

oga you are a very whack analyst and bl*nd super eagles fan….your last line saying this generation even if they lose the DRC case and qualify for the 2030, the will be the greatest Nigerian team in history….you are just yapping nonsense

From 1990 to 2000(10yrs gap) no super eagles team have been able to equal the record of that set
1990 afcon final(lost to Algeria)
1992 Afcon semifinal (lost semifinal and won the 3rd place match)
1994 Afcon won
1994 Fifa world cup(round 16 finish)
1994 top 5 ranked nation in soccer
1996 Atlanta(a large number represented the olympic team and won gold medal)
1998 Fifa worldcup (round 16 finish)
2000 Afcon (got to the final)

so what are you saying….these are the undisputed greatest generation ever for now…stop talking rubbish abeg

The 2007 moratorium was to suspend enforcing punishment on those with dual citizenship, not to suspend the law against dual citizenship

The bolded is what saved your post(we will see). Following a tragedy the previous year, a team picked themselves up and went through to the finals of Afcon, but because you like this generation of players(underachievers, despite the talent level) better, you rubbish all their efforts(and yes this is emotional blackmail). When will you folks stop rubishing a win because it was decided by penalties? Is it not part of the game? No be the same penalty somebody go play like na short pass to goalkeeper? The only group that came close to the Amokachi set as far as achievement was the Mikel set under Keshi. Those guys missed two consecutive Afcon tourney's in 96 and 98, and managed to rack up all that. Shame no even catch you to talk all this nonsense.

You belittle the efforts of those players enroute to a championship, but you turn around and make three excuses. Goalkeeper no dey part of the team ni? Na ball boy? or did the rules of away goals apply only to Nigeria? Are injuries not part of the game? Did you not bring up a team that following a tragedy had a great tournament?

I've always had bad belly towards all African teams. Only naija I pray for. I don't know why I am like that oo. Just like I can never support Brazil at the world cup even though I like Brazilian players.
