Na lie ooo. You literally just contradicted yourself. Maduka Okoye has been trusted in a major tournamet. He was trusted at Afcon 2021 and we fell. And omo ehn, E vex me as Akin go afcon no see 1 minute play. As a young player it slows momentum but it is hard getting back your place especially as a young loanee. Pisa coaches dey exact their revenge naa. Akin was a starter pre-afcon but now, post afcon, the coaches no gree am. Also, Gilardino, the man who was starting Akin and later began benching him post afcon was fired after the Inter thrashing and replaced. The current coach has played 5 games winning none and used Akin only once! Akin had a fine first half of the season but this second half, his gametime is suffering. Uche same thing but thank God he will return to Getafe and dorn that #10 shirt and ball like we know hin to again. And na why I dey scream for Nnadi matter at Marseille. I need these lads playing. Chelle no try for Akin matter at all at Afcon. Papi85: |

Maduka Okoye has faced 13 penalties in Serie A between 2023-24 season and 2025/26 season and saved only once. This season alone he has faced 6 and saved one vs Bologna in November. Nwabali's Penalty expertise even in high pressure games need not be emphasized. But for the records he faced 4 pens this season at Chippa and saved 2 before he ended his contract. At the recent Afcon, he faced 9 penalties in the Shootouts across 2 games and saved 3. At last Afcon, we know what he did as per penalties as well. And even vs DRC. Arthur Okonkwo is a decent mention for penalties alone but still far from the level of Nwabali for the moment. Saved a penalty already this season and also saved while in League one or two within the last seasons. Philosopher1979: |

I feel like if Maduka can come through a high stakes Super Eagles game unscathed, then we will see him become the monster GK he can be but until that happens, I dont think anyone will be 100% absolutely confident in him manning the goal. do4luv14: |

Retired Joel obi has far more career minutes than Bazee who is still playing even now for Bielefeld in Bundesliga 2. The gap too much. So Obi's legs still better pass Bazee's plastic legs. do4luv14: |

TheSuperNerd:i don't think that single tournament should make us write off Maduka. Maduka is a top goalkeeper and he has prove that in a top5 league against quality strikers. I do feel for the youngman, a victim of circumstance. I love you still believe he's a better goalkeeper to Nwabali. Though Nwabali has the confidence and support of Nigerians going for him now. |
| Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by lexyman(m): 8:19pm On Mar 13 |
Even a match-rusty Stanley Nwabali can be more dependable than a fully fit Maduka Okoye. In terms of mentality and composure, Nwabali clearly has the edge. you want buy am ? ![]() He stands out in key goalkeeping qualities which we all know : Timing Positioning Decision-making under pressure Communication with defenders In a high-profile match, I would choose Nwabali because he has repeatedly shown that he can come through when it matters most — especially if the game goes to a penalty shootout. He has been tested on many occasions and has delivered. I also hope Okoye overcomes the stage fright and nervous moments, because his talent is undeniable and Nigerian football benefits from strong competition in goal. |
| Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by TheSuperNerd(m): 8:26pm On Mar 13 |
At least Nwabali dey closer to the Super Eagles job than you will ever be. elyte89: |

Oh no, not writing him off but just stating current and historical facts. The day Okoye Maduka give us really solid performances in goal and even shows up in a high stakes game, then yes, he will win all over easily. Also, being in a top 5 league is not automatic ticket to the #1 position of the Super Eagles. Okoye was in the Team wayyy before Nwabali came in around 2024. Okoye kept goal for most of the 2022 WC Group stage qualifying games yet he could not even cement that shirt Post-Afcon 2021. Uzoho took it back for a brief period before providence made Jpes bring in Nwabali and the rest is history. zicky: |

do4luv14:Stop catching cruise. Nwabali vs Okoye is not up for debate. It's only two people that can let Okoye man our post where Nwabali is fit if you allow them,only Kriskel and Charles. The only problem Nwabali has is his childish antics |
