The entire deffence is a joke, the attackers a comedy...see numerous passes and non can be converted..its a shame..maybe God is trying to protect us frm ebola..every dissapointment is a blessing

Me smell a chronic case of sour grapes!!

NadiaSA1:
Hope our wifes (nigeria) will support south africa during the Afcon cup

Naughty girl!

May God punish keshi and his supporters..The fool was smiling wen we loose..But wait o..wat is even going to be our gain if we qualify?

khattab02:
for me, am still not convinced about their play. Though they might have won ivory coast and finished the qualifiers unbeaten.

watch out for them during the competition

grandlexuz:


No way! Defeated today by Mali.. Cameroon is the only undefeated country in AFCON 2015 qualifirs.. 3 wins 2 draw!

watch out for them during the competition

Amodu the master tactician of last minute qualification would have done a good job of qualifying us but GEJ nor gree. Amodu has never failed us. Keshi's afcon trophy of 2013 is a confirmed fluke and a flash in the pan.

Lol. I know. He's Haitian. But I guess he's a citizen, right? Thanks all the same

he should be an American citizen,u are right afterall

SuperMartins:
Pls..any news abt d nation who takes d best loser spot?

The Tunisians are playing Egypt. The Tunisians have already qualified. However with both teams having the same blood group (Arabs), Tunisia might let the Egyptians win the day. If Egypt wins by a two goal margin they qualify as the best losers. If not the spot goes to Democratic Republic of Congo.

Africa's best footballing country right now....undefeated in the qualifiers and a growing football fan base

Ok Ok Ok

[b]Coach Keshi Failed Nigerians

I am writing this with a broken heart. Today's match against South Africa at Uyo was supposed to be a winning game. The signs was there. However, Coach Keshi like all other previous coaches fell into the same problem. Yielding to pressure to stick to the so called Super Eagles.

At Uyo, we watched a team that showed promise. There were players there that could fill in the regions we were lacking. Most notably, Emem Eduok. His movement and brilliance around the eighteen yard box was something we lacked a long time. It is sad, we had such a player and he never got his opportunity.

The biggest mistake of the night was Coach Keshi not giving Aluko a chance to start. Sone Aluko was the reason we had a chance to turn the match around. He brought in spark to the team in the game against Sudan. The second leg match. He was refreshing, creative and played with passion. He had the same impact in the match against Congo. I thought the lad had done enough to merit a starting role. Why he did not start? I can not understand. If we started with Aluko, the game would have been different.

How Emenike gets a chance to play terrible and merit his starting shirt? Beats my imagination. I remember during the last game, I hoped whoever came on for Emenike should score and take his place. It happened that Aaron Samuel came in for Emenike and scored.

Why Aaron Samuel did not start? Shocking. Finally, Onazi might be a hard worker, but he is technically deficient. He leaves the simple to go for he extraordinary and achieves worse than the ordinary. Joseph Nathaniel should have started.

Coach Keshi developed a habit of letting players playing poorly continue. He had done a good job, raising new stars for the team. However, when he needed them the most, he did not use them.

If I am correct, Coach Keshi did not use his third substitution. It was clear, Emenike out for Emem Eduok. That is why I started this article pointing out Emem Eduok. Coach Keshi not making that change was disappointing. If there is any lesson he should learn from this match, always punish poor performers by benching them.

Ahmed Musa, the thunder that will fire you is still doing press up. Nansense.

Brotherman abeg no Bobo us, you have never said anything good about the young man.. your then "player rating " and "probable starting 11" says otherwise.. (maybe you have forgotten people read and take note of your thread and comments".

Not me. Maybe another person.

My posts are still there for anyone to dig up.

I guess, to you saying good about anyone is about rating him 10/10 in every match even where he didn't perform well.

Takam easy bros.. Your blood pressure is getting higher!..Lol

U must be from rivers state

nah

so happy that South Africa was the reason why Nigeria will not defend their Cup

Meaning we av no chance??

khattab02:
yeah correct! All these while I was thinking it was 6 groups and 3 best third teams.

so sad bro. I don't even have appetite to eat

pls is it not two countries that qualifies for best loser in the afcon becos they Tunisia and Egypt are currently playing draw

Egypt-Tunisia 1-1, 75 minutes of play. Very likely that DR Congo will get the third spot..

otokx:
Each time I remember our defenders falling on the pitch, wonder begins to take place.

same here bro

There remains a political undertone to this loss.. Morrocco pulled out of hosting the nations cup and subsequently got susbended from participation due to fears of Ebola .. Nigeria has now systematically withdrawn from participation too due to fears of ebola .. In d long run this can only be seen as a blessing in disguise .. I am Nigerian and I bleed green.. So I am happy we do not have to face Ebola again in d name of Afcon!!!

SuperMartins:
Meaning we av no chance??

Nigeria is very much out of the race. The best loser spot is between DR Congo and Egypt.. Vety likely DR Congo with just 15 minutes to go in the TUNISIA-EGYPT match.

khattab02:
alright! Till then.

okay.

NanaAmofah:
