VRA is killing football take it or leave it

How can you take such decisions in knock out stage

Football is all about contact

That penalty decision is too harsh

There is nothing like luck here. The game exposed the technical deficiency of African coaches. Look at the substitutions. Instead of bringing in defensive minded players to lock the game, he brought in midfielders and attackers. Imagine, an experienced Koulibaly was on the bench. This why you have to respect Mourhino and other top class coaches more. I hope he has learnt his lessons though in a very hard way.

I can't even help crying. What is wrong with the black race?We are always unlucky. Can somebody explain this sheer rubbish? What kinda thing is this? Who does that?
What kind of loss was that?!
If Ghana does the same thing then there is something wrong somewhere.

Son, if your dad loves football and follow Nigeria's football back in 1980's till Early 1990's, he will know about the case of Late Rasheed Yekini vs Egypt in TUNISIA 1994 and Clemens Westerof's decision against Baba Yekini in that match and why.

What you don't know, never you dare talk about it nor brag about it to save yourself. Learn!!
Who's your son here or I am your father.
Tunisia 94 that was like ystday to me.
I watched every damn match in the Nations cup that year with my clear eyes and doesn't need any dad or anybody to tell me about it.
So what happened then in your fictional imagination that you think we didn't know?
Just for you to know I watched those matches, I am typing this without googling it, all from my head.
.
Tunisia 94, we were three team in one group.
We beat Gabon 3nil and drew Egypt to qualify for the quarter finals where we beat Zaire now named Congo DR by two clinical goals from Yekini.
Semi final was against Ivory Coast were Michel Bassole of Ivory coast scored first and Yekini equalized. He scored again and Ben Iroha equalize with a beautiful one two with Jay Jay Okocha.
.
The final was against Zambia where their defender Elijah Litana ( I can never forget that name) scored first from a corner. Before Emmanuel Amunike playing in his first match at the Nations cup scored two excellent goals to give Nigeria the cup.
So guy, I don't know how old are you and I am not gonna underrate you, but stop thinking I am a baby when it comes to football.
The first world cup match I watch live on TV as a 10yr old was in 1990 where Argentina as the defending champion played against Cameroun and lost 1nil.
.
What I rmbr vividly in that match was Maradona raising and doing skills with the ball at the centre of the field before the match began to scare off the Camerounians..
Guy, like I said earlier I don't know how old you're. But don't you dare underrate me when it comes to footie.
I'm 46 by the way if you must know.

This conclusion is too broad. Three matches don't prove that African teams are mentally weaker than European teams. Football is full of late comebacks—European and South American teams have also thrown away winning positions in major tournaments.

Late goals are often a result of squad depth, tactical substitutions, experience in game management, fitness, and sometimes plain luck—not simply "mental fatigue."

If mentality alone determined success, Morocco would never have reached a World Cup semifinal, nor would Cameroon, Senegal, or Ghana have made their historic runs.

African football has consistently become more competitive. The gap is no longer about talent—Africa produces some of the world's best players. The remaining challenge is building stronger domestic structures, improving coaching continuity, increasing squad depth, and gaining more experience in managing high-pressure knockout games.

Saying "it will take donkey years before Africans win the World Cup" ignores the steady progress African football has made. History shows that breakthroughs often happen after years of near misses.
The volume of self hatred and inferiority complex they display on this site is astounding.

Stop saying that abeg, the super eagles right now are the best super eagles I e seen in a long time
Keep decieving yourselves. Did Nigeria qualify for the world? Nigeria lost to the only quality team they met at Nations Cup tournament. Notice how Morocco easily shut down Iwobi from making those dangerous passes. That's how world class teams would easily send Nigeria home. Nigeria has not figured out the concept of SPACE and PRESSURE. It showed during friendly with Portugal befire the world cup. We are still playing amateur football that rely on skill and athletism. If soccer was about skill, Brazil will always win.

African teams performed wonderfully well in this world Cup edition.
I agree.
The final results notwithstanding.
