Humility017:

Ogu is at fault...this should be his last tournament for Nigeria.
I have not seen any input from the player I was expecting to make an impact...at all. so disappointed

Joebie:
oga after that blunder Balogun remained suspect in his decision making. Even the commentator noticed it

comodo:

Balogun raised his hand for the pass. It was given to him. He had all the time to go meet the ball. Rather he was waiting for d ball. Pls don't bring Ogu into it.

Sainty92:
Enough is enough.... After this nations cup, John Ogu should retire from national team abeg

Humility017:

since rohr has refused to have sense....
will you play mikel as an AM?

forgiveness:


It was Balogun's fault. He should have kicked the ball away. But Ogu, what has he done so far?

Earthquake3:
The error leading to the goal is as much of Ogu as it is for Balogun

Football basics says that you don't give a pass across your goal

TheSuperNerd:
The Madagascans are only disciplined defensively but their style can fetch them enough yellow cards and a red.

They always have three or four players around Mikel, Kalu or Etebo. They close us down very quickly but they are go rough when they are beaten and left for dead. Nigeria's inter plays have been decent but we need one or two players who can open up this Rigid and annoyingly Mourinho-inspired Park Bus system employed by the bareas.

A Chukwueze won't be a bad idea. And an Iwobi could provide the killer magic to unlock defences like these.
Lastly, Ighalo should stop being a sisi and stay on his feet. He went down too early seeking a penalty after getting a fine pass into the box from Musa. He should be braver and stop seeking easy calls.


Musa also should be able to shoot on sight. That chance he had should be in the back of the net for 1-1 had he been a little more sharper and not try to dribble the keeper.


Nigeria will Triumph 2-1 or draw this game eventually but only if we make the right changes and break the Madagascan Wall of ParkBus.

Honestly, if not for that blunder by A Sleepy Balogun, we should be edging this 2-0 with Madagascar chasing the game all day only using their backwards passing and rush-to-the-final third plays... Plus counter attacks to keep the scoreline low.


Apart from the Balogun blunder, we have been the better team and we should be!!

But the HT scoreline says Madagascar leads. That is football. Be assertive and take your chances.
