Comfortably at home indeed hahahahahahahahahabahahahahahahabahBhabahhahahahah

Ofcourse we are comfortable at home….we no qualify world no end, no means say na this useless shit we go play against England….we go follow england ball and get a draw result from that game🤣🤣🤣Cowards

TheSuperNerd:
He has no point and you are the wrong one coz you are referencing events we hage clearly moved and grown from. Even vs Morocco the boys stood strong and fought despite the 100% biased officiating which you are stylishly refusing to acknowledge.

No need doing back and forth. My point has been made.

Make sure you enter round 16 ooo🤣🤣

Ur now moving from Ghana are going to play only 3 matches to Ghana is going to get walloped by England to now make it to round of 16 keep shifting the goal post Odenii🤣🤣🤣🤣

that one na sure banker. Dem fit stop high flying and star studded English team em come be Croatia wey dey shake

No allow hate give u stroke 🤣🤣🤣

soetanoreoluwa:
I think there is going to be series of qualify starting next year. This is going to be tedious for the coach combining it with Afcon preparation provided we qualify lol

Hence I advised NSC to go all out to host the competition. 8 teams, 2 cities/venues.
We host, we don't worry about qualifiers (4 matches within two rounds)

Only hiccup I see is how AFCON next year will avoid clashing with the U23 AFCON

I was actually thinking they will go and play 3matches amd come back home, i never knew they were going to build tower of babel in the 3matches to enter round 32….
Atleast Capeverde went to play 3matches

On a completely unrelated note, i hope caf does not adopt this fifa world cup ball for the time being while okoye is still in our post.

Every time they keep tampering with these WC balls. Didn't they test it with gks before approving it for the tournament?

See as u just dey insult me like say na me play DM for Ghana 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Abeg mk sure u drink enough water b4 going to bed mk blood pressure no kpai u for middle of the night

Wait, FIFA also increased the Women's world cup to 48 teams starting 2031?

Competition with predominantly minnows at 32 teams will probably become a sorority camp at 48 teams.

FIFA for whatever reason is pushing football to need the pooling of resources of 2-3 countries.

Sugarboyy:
Ghana will lose +1 goals to England today.
2-0 or 3-0

U were saying ?

Goke7:
Ronaldo 😂 chai

Baba see araha. He rush them

[quote author=JohnBullMySon post=139810651][/quote]So what finally happened?

EElopa:
The Netherlands, Japan, and Sweden will make it out of this group.

Scotland will put up a fight, but Brazil will still find a way to nick it. Scotland will have 3 points with negative 1 or 2 goals. I think that will be enough for them; Brazil, Morocco, and Scotland will make it out of this group.

Argentina will beat Jordan. The Austria and Algeria game will decide which team finishes second. Argentina, Austria, and Algeria will make it out of this group.

United States. Australia and Paraguay will make it out of this group.

Cape Varde will either draw or beat Saudi Arabia. Spain will beat Uruguay. Spain and Cape Verde make it out of this group.

Belguim will beat New Zealand. The Egypt and Iran game has "draw" written all over it. Belgium, Egypt, and Iran will make it out of this group.

Portugal will comfortably qualify. Three teams in this group will make it to the round of 32. Portugal, Colombia, and Dr. Congo will make it through.

The Czech Republic will lose against Mexico. South Africa will loose against South Korea. Mexico and South Korea will qualify from this group.

Ecuador is tossed. They will lose against Germany, and Ivory Coast will beat Curacao. Germany and Ivory Coast will make it through.

Bosnia will trash Qatar. Bosnia, Switzerland, and Canada will make it out of this group.

Panama will lose against Croatia and England. Ghana will lose against England and Croatia. Ghana's negative goal difference will determine

if they sneaked in or not. I have Ghana out simply because the Ghana team I saw against Panama was bad, and England will run away with a comfortable 3-0 win, and Croatia will beat them 2-0. They will probably end up being at 3 points with negative 4 or 5 goals. Ghana's only path is that they have to get something out of the Croatia game.

Senegal will beat Iraq. France, Norway, and Senegal make it out of this group.

Summary

The eight third-place teams will be

Sweden

Scotland

Algeria

Paraguay

Iran

Dr. Congo

Bosnia

Senegal

Oga I told u u will need to review ur list after Ghana England game anotellu abeg do the needfull 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Lol... I literally made reference to the WC ball @emboldened below while Senegal took on Norway based on this Joe Hart analysis which I came across prior to the game.

TheSuperNerd:
Pedersen scores! Kalidou Koulibaly mistake. Mendy could have done better but it is 1-0 to Norway.

The WC ball get him own spin story but moving on.

Seeing the way Mbappe's ball and the First Norway goal flew past Mendy, I knew the ball was not right and Hart was right.

I did more checks and discovered it is a ball with 4 panels only. That is the smallest I have seen or read about. Last WC ball had 20 panels. So yep, the kinetic physics of this ball is yet to be grasped by GKs in terms of movement.

Una try, even though you guys played defensively all through.
Not every team will play defensive football against England and still end up not losing
