ambrosini593:
una see holding n grabbing for penalty box. no penalty.. that useless he goat Brazil ref for don give another penalty if na naija dey play

No comparison. The Nigerian defender held the Croatian attacker from both shoulders down to his chest. That was too obvious. There is a way more experience defender do it without the ref blinking.

resurgent2019:
Super eagles represent a failed nation in all aspects. Stop mentioning the Nigerian team as part of participants in this tournament jareee.

Talking about that team will make a lot of people angry.

I think you could remember vividly some good African country didn't participate in this tournament, do you expect such?

Italy, Scotland, Holland not there either.


Let rorh change his tactics and you will give him some accolades

cherishyy:
Bros abeg... Even Cameroon won't concede 2 goals to that mediocre Croatian team... Be honest, our boys are not world cup ready at all...

una go just de talk. The same Cameroon Croatia demolished 4-1 in Brazil?

Phagyrhe:
Well, we are not talking history here, we are in the present. And to talk about defensive problems, I hope you are not talking about pre-Neymar era sha. Brazil came to this WC with the best defensive record which stretch back to qualifiers. No matter how good a team is, they will certainly concede. And to imagine that this Switzerland team won 9 out of 10 of their qualifying matches says a lot.

Brazil best defensive record?

How many goals did they concede during qualifier?

Cause Spain conceded only 3

It's time for England to lose tomorrow..

Caseless:
Serious WC.


First games have been difficult for the big boys so far.


I can't blame Nigeria anymore.

So Nigeria is now part of the big boys abi?? I go just kick you inside gutter now

eluquenson:
I see Brazil not going too far, they lack sharp strikers.

They have plenty stars in their midfield.

It is more about the commitment and quality of defenders they played against. If it were the Nigeria, we would have been drubbed 4 - 0. You don't go to the World Cup to show a lack of passion for the game. This is a rare event that happen once in every four years.

oshe11:
Still wondering why a Penalty was awarded against Nigeria but None for Brazil @Jesùs

No comparison at all. Watch both scene and tell me which was crudely done and which was more aggressive.

if he had done this, he'd have saved the day. The fault was from the coach and not the players. He needed to just tweak the team a bit after the goal, but he didn't.

Rasbel:
The title of this world cup should be 'Kosere ni Moscow'

Oloun ��

But I'm still surprised oh. Why can't our yeye model players play like dis other teams? See as ordinary streams dey kpansh big teams. Is dis country cursed or what?

haibe:
so overrated, I will start firmino before him anytime

Brazil needs someone like Feminho in that attack, not that Gabriel Jesus of a kid that cannot do anything apart from tap ins.

ipobarecriminals:
caseless i sight U and the Pig u dey drag.

Me and d pig get beaf.

Neymar needs to step us his game big time!
Enough of all this unnecessary dribbles,he really cost this team today in my opinion!..
The coach should start Firmino next match,and I'm sure this team miss Dani alves so much..
The attack was always coming from the left,Danilo should improve

Caseless:
we've paid our dues to deserve some respects. We scored more goals in the WC than any African team in history.

If we're not big, the expectations wouldn't have been that high like it was last night.

From the reaction of most non-Nigerians on many online platforms last night, you'd agree that Nigeria is big in its own class.

You are correct jurrr

It's just that those guys were playing without zeal or game plan... Very frustrating

odehaj:
Even in the Animal farm the Pigs are the intelligent animals. In the psychic pig we trust !

Lmao!

hiroz:
firminho is far more gifted than that jesus kid...
i think jesus is overhyped

U think?
That's d truth.

Feminho can create chances from nothing with his skills and experience while that Gabriel cannot even trap a ball not to talk of dribbling his way out of a tight situation.

Very useless worldcup for betting.I will only play league games from now on.l can see how this bookies are making money.the only game I won in this world cup is Croatia win,a lot of people will select Germany and Brazil win and ignore Serbia win.infact I saw a ticket staked with 1000000 naira selecting likes of Argentina,Belgium,Brazil e.t.c

Go on Twitter, they don't even take us seriously.

Johnspino:
Even Switzerland is better Dan wat Nigeria played yesterday

Even Switzerland

Switzerland is No 6 according to fifa ranking

Nigeria is No 45

Sunnyburn2000:
hmmm
This team had more established players in their prime that the team late keshi took to the world cup Four years ago.

it is all about formation and understanding the type of game that suits us.

like some people observed before the world cup, our best way of playing is being disorganized.

I felt our players were so much under a lot pressure to maintain certain positions yesterday that they were forced to make mistakes that led to two goals, which eventually was main difference

Point of correction. The team Keshi took to the World Cup had sizable number of players that played in top teams. No member of the team was playing in mediocre Chinese league. Even the few ones left from that squad are not sharp anymore. It's even beyond that. It is a problem of lack of commitment and passion for the game, and a coach that was taking chances with a woeful formation.

Ekaka1:
Our own SE defenders dey pee for pant once a fairly big name attacker approaches ...but see how organized and disciplined Akanji and the rest of the swill defense line is. They even confidently protect the ball from Neymar

Thank God that Akanji boy didn't play for Nigeria. He's career would have nose dived.

Ekaka1:
We are o...we play draw?
Did we even have a shot at goal?
Did we try to pick up after that own goal?
Did we look like we were in a WC match

Try answer those first ...then you know you can't put Switzerland and that Naija team in one bucket ...dem go do us stronnnngggg thing

I know...am actually referring to the mood of the Brazilian fans to Nigeria fans wen their were losing

hmmnn.... o ga oo

BEST MATCH SO FAR FOR ME WAS PERU VS DENMARK....THE MATCH WAS VERY INTENSE,PERUVIANS HAS GOOD PLAYERS ,THEY WERE SO UNFORTUNATE

i don't know whether those Neymar who used to compare themselves with the MASTER of the game...C-RONALDO is on the field

na so so mouth mouth...but the soccer dey for leg...it is time for them all to bow to the god of soccer...ride on C-Wahala!

Let us focus on home grown grassroot players.. We no longer need fat so called international players, they are a disgrace.
