Man u cant blame whoever doubted that because South Korea were piss poor against Mexico. Too many weak players

I don't think South Korean were poor against Mexico. In short, I told someone that South Korea will make things though for Germany.

Why will Ighalo not be rated higher than Nacho when he played mostly when Argentina was looking for a winner. Argentina removed players to attack. It is simple.

Nacho will excel whether people like it or not his talent is undoubted if we continue deceiving ourselves and not do things the right way. He will find himself sooner or later in the right system and he will eplode. His work rate and determination yesterday is enough to show his quality.

Argentina controlled the first half to the F. Watching football tells you in such situations the attackers find it difficult.

Nacho will excel.

As for yesterday's game, his overall contributions was not poor because of the hard Work he put in. A Thousand sites writing negative review does not change that.

You can praise Ighalo but the fact is, Mikel has to do lots of the heavy lifting for him.

Finito.
these your defense of nacho is getting irritating, can you stop. So as a striker he was sent to the pitch to give us work rate and off the ball movements not goals. Dude was just falling up and down, with no shot, successful dribble, take on etc. You are saying rubbish. Be careful o.

Even ighalo had two shots, and nacho zero.... Do you think you are talking to kids here.

Please take heart !my only pain and frustration was the people supporting Argentina... Trolling up and down

Mehn they came for my head and I make sure I gave them very hard...

This is the crux of the problem which I have been mentioning, our players mentality is too low for the world cup tournament. Have the FIFA president not visited Nigeria before? So what's the damn thing about him coming to your dressing room. Stage fright, inferiority complex and lack of self confidence killed the team in this world cup.

This is the most timid senior national team I have ever seen, running after messi jersey and taking pics with FIFA president. Oh what a crap. Real poo

Same thing about in 2002...

The only African country left standing Senegal, Africa has been a big let down this time.

I'm not sure Senegal will go far.

Well my second team that I support is England. For the first time in the entire history of English world cup footbal near Half of the team is black.

Ighalo had two shots after the Argentines were pushing for a goal. They even took out a defender. When I call for the exclusion of Ighalo and the inclusion of Iheanacho, it is not for goals but the work rate makes the team play better.

Trending news in Abakaliki right now is that a consultant with the Federal Teaching Hospital Abakaliki (FETHA) slumped and died when Argentina scored the second goal.

Won't have believed this news but it was confirmed by my neighbour who works in the Hospital and knows the man personally.

Kids have lost a father and the wife, a husband.

The question is was he in the air when he nodded the ball? If yes, I must say it’s not easy to keep the hands down while attempting to head the ball in the air.

I must agree it is not easy especially has rojo is not the tallest, but that’s the reason why he his not yet considered world class! I feel he was lucky with that handball, if it were against us they would most likely call a penalty.
Look at the way Godin, azpilicueta, barzagli, Tiago silva who are not the tallest handle headers better than taller and imposing defenders.

I Actually had a mixed feeling immediately I finished watching Portugal and Iran match Two days ago...
That's when I knew that Super eagles will need extra effort and legs to win against Argentina

FIFA is a pure business with Nike and is it addidas or puma sponsoring C Ronaldo and Messi... Definitely everything must be done to help them win respectively.

Though it was very painful... My heart just went dry, sweating profusely...

It was a terror night ...just make sure I ate, do all I need to do before the match...

But I slept like a baby... Very sound sleep... Thank God have recovered...

I will keep supporting super eagles till we get it right...

Focus now shift to AFCON

How many team will qualify from our group..we. Need to start preparation earnest

And also NFF election coming soon in next couple of month... Will AmajuPinnick reelect or get sacked...?
Good mindset, wallowing in the defeat! defeats progress.
Amaju prolly deserves another tenure, seems he’s on to something great. Excellent marketing and actually making efforts, but he talks about his achievements too much, I don’t trust people who brag too much, let your actions do the talking.
AFCON with the kind of dissatisfaction in our players knowing they could stand their ground with the best in the world, football is not maths but we should win the AFCON we have the quality nah if gernot Has the quality in himself not to goofe.

Argentina Coach Names Two Super Eagles Stars Who Can Make The Difference In Future

Argentina Coach Names Two Super Eagles Stars Who Can Make The Difference In Future
Argentina manager Jorge Sampaoli has named Chelsea wing-back Victor Moses and Leicester City striker Ahmed Musa among the Nigeria players that can make the difference in future tournaments like the African Cup of Nations and the World Cup.

The Super Eagles failed to get the job done after losing 2-1 to the South Americans on Tuesday evening, and it was Moses who scored the only goal for the Africans five minutes into the second half.

Asked by Ayo Olu Ibidapo, a member of the Super Eagles media team, what he expects from the Super Eagles in the next couple of years if the team stayed together, Sampaoli said at the post-match press conference : ''I think that the team has very good players and they know the elements of the game.

''They have players like Musa, Moses, and many other players who can really make the difference in a tournament like this one.

''I believe that with the years, once they get quality players and once they keep playing with those players who are so skilled individually, Nigeria as a team will keep growing.''

Ahmed Musa, 25, became Nigeria's top scorer in World Cup history last week thanks to his brace against Iceland, taking his tally to four goals in the competition.

The world cup is the real deal, what does it profit a team like Egypt to win afcon 7 times and can't move beyond first round in the world cup.

Am tired of afcon u17, u20, u23 and all other undies, the world cup is a true reflection and true state of any country's football. Perood

Calling me deluded does not make your point strong. If you think Argentina taking of a defensive player for a forward does not mean us having more room to attack, I do not need to debate with you.

If you think after we scored, Argentina played with the same compactness as in the first half then I can see why you decided to call me deluded.

There's nothing too wrong abt what he did,besides na local player,he was just too excited cin messi alone,now playing in d same tournament with him, made ezenwa went gaga,he couldnt av tot of playing for eagles let alone of playing along side with messi in a competition two years ago.we also could av done worse citing our own idol be it messi or any oda person we wish to come across in life.if we could do a whole lot of unthinkable gestures for musicians, politicians here grin cheesy,so wetin him no fit di



Football is a game of love,and ezenwa didn't get to play d match,he could av used anoda tactics to collect his jersey been a professional, but he had no choice.so abeg free ezenwa, what he did was normal in an unprofessional way. Simple.
