The funny thing about soccer......

Third place teams will celebrate their bronze,

Second place teams will cry even with their silver medals cheesy

Can you imagine ?
3rd place team ends the tournament with a win, while second place team ends with a loss.
Nobody celebrates after a loss.

please remind me of the population of egypt compared to the population of nigeria? over 200 million people could not beat madagascar. if you like keep enjoying your mediocrity. idiot...
if it is by population, how come China, Indiq and USA have not won the World Cup?

Stop making unintelligent arguments on the internet

Third class team with mostly below average players with a very tired and outdated coach.

Any NL that celebrate this Bronze medal but call Messi a failure, is a First class Hypocrite tongue

Super Eagle still perform better than Cameroon, Egypt, Ghana and Ivory Coast tho despite the fact that they have talented group too!!!

Only one team will emerge as a Winner las las!!!

I have been following AFCON since 1980 when Nigerian win the gold at national stadium Surulere Lagos. Let me tell U kids in this forum, nations cup is not easy to get bronze. Always try and appreciate the contribution of your team. To play in any Africa competition is not easy. Nigeria has the records of winning the highest bronze medals , Today is 9 bronze so far. U need to appreciate the guys , by winning the 9th bronze No country in Africa has such a records.

senseless statement, you think bronze is an achievement in ghana? We have gone to the finals nine times but we dont see it as an achievement because we have won just four out of it.

Overall, it's been an underwhelming tournament.

The reason African teams fail to perform at the world stage was probably visible for all to see.

Only a few teams really impressed.

On another note, after today, I give up on Nigerian "fans".

Ighalo be there banging in the goals. They complain " he's too slow. Bring in Osimhen". Oshimhen comes in and these same people be like "las las he no sabi"

What's even wrong with y'all?
You're right �

In another thought, it shows that when the preferred isn't available, the available becomes preferred. We know what a top striker should be, but we are not getting the taste yet.

I know one day, we will have a Ronaldo. All we want is a good and consistent player.
