They look good to me. They have made Tanzania look ordinary so far. They have not been able to string passes together.
If the result ends this way Uganda only need to beat Nigeria 1:0 to qualify. And Nigeria may crash out if Angola beat Tanzania by 2 or more goals.

This group is still open

Bros, when you consider that Cristiano Ronaldo is earning more than all the other players combined, you'd realize that he ought to have done more than try his best. The bottom line is, Juve bought Cristiano Ronaldo for one reason and one reason only - to win Champions league. Hence, if Cristiano Ronaldo couldn't get them to win the cup then he failed, especially considering that Juve has been quite close to winning it without Cristiano in the last two years: 2017 - Finalist and would've won it last year if not for the English ref's dodgy officiating.

He did is best! Others didn't turn up. He scored their goals over the two legs what else do want from him. Moreover, he hasn't touch the field for Close to a month before both legs. He deserves some respect abeg

Olukumi is not Igbo dialect. This is from the horses mouth. The paramount ruler of Ugbodu.
Just like Agbor and Ikweres say theirs are not Igbo dialect. Bros these are just separatist ideologies. Let's not go further to prevent us derailing this thread

Every Yoruba will claim his ancestors were from Ife except the Ijebus. grin


The king said they were the early settlers in that place they are now. You can read his last statement.

Tanzania is ordinary. We had 33 shots against them..

On a better day, it could have been 12:4 or something like that.

i think while the agbor and ikwerre speak distinct igbo that your average igbo man would understand the olukumi clan's language is a mostly yoruba dialect

How can the paramount ruler speculate?

It's not speculation it's true. The king confirmed it himself except you know better than him or you are the current crowned king of Ugbodu (Ugbodumila). grin

The language is said to be more ancient than the other Yoruba dialect.

Ronaldo was instrumental to them getting this far. He even scored a goal that could have earned them a place in the semi finals if they had simply just park the bus.

ronaldo was bought as a striker and also that big name player to deliver during crunch time. he did that during the knockout rounds scoring all five of juves goals at this stage. if juventus had defended better they would be in the semis right now

Bros, like I had said several times, take away Cristiano Ronaldo's goals and he's useless to any team. Here's the question everyone ought to ask: since when did Juve become porous in defense?

Playing with Cristiano is like playing with 10 men against 11, because he's useless defensively.

That's the point I was making. Whereas a player like King Leo Messi makes other players (from defenders to midfielders to strikers) better, Cristiano Ronaldo makes other players poorer because he plays in only one half of the pitch and rarely contributes in other areas. Cristiano is a high maintenance player. If you play in the game then some other player(s) has to play 2 people's position in other to cover for Cristiano.

At Real Madrid, Casemiro does this dirty job for him.

Oga na the same difference na. Not really good and bellow average mean the same thing in my book. I think it will be a close one because these Ugandans are more physical and are also technical on the ball.

Our boys are more enterprising going forward but as the saying goes defence wins championship's

No team is out and no team has qualfied. Though Tanzania have the least chance and Nigeria has the best chance of qualfyiing.

Tanzania can still qualify if they beat Angola by up to 2 goals and Nigeria beat Uganda by 4 goal margin. Or the other way round.

Nigeria can crash out if we lose to Uganda by 1:0 and Angola beats Tanzania by 2 goal margin. (Here all 3 teams will end up on 6pts, and head to head will not count because they would have each beaten each other and so goals difference will make the difference)

NIGERIA ARE NOT THROUGH, WE NEED TO AVOID DEFEAT AGAINST UGANDA. At least a draw will see us through irrespective of the outcome of the game between Tanzania and Angola.
