Mujtahida:
No matter how we look at it, Peseiro and Finidi really finished us.

Yep. We didn't do Chelle any favors by putting him in this position

Yikes. Do these guys even know they have to Win??

Odunayaw:
😆tension no make you recognize sarcasm

He got me lmao

Mujtahida:
Fifa just said that they will cancel our first goal.

Dude, you need to provide a link or some sort of evidence to back this up. Can't just make unsubstantiated statements like this

Thanks mod

Is there VAR? And if so, can they retract the goal after halftime?

Thanks folks!

Desperately searching for a stream

Wait, I haven't been watching the game. The team has no shots yet

I would like to see high offensive output and pressing today. I am honestly jealous of these North African countries that always trounce their opponents 3-0, 4-0,5-0, etc.,

Truidstarr:
Starting 11: Nwabali, Aina, Troost-Ekong, Bassey, Fredrick; Ndidi, Dele-Bashiru, Iwobi; Lookman, Dessers, Moses Simon

Chelle using Tolu as a super sub? Interesting...

oloriooko:
Zim 0 vs Rwa 1

Rwanda just scored a screamer 41 min gone

SA will drop points against Rwanda in their next encounter. These mid tier African teams are Bafana's kryptonite.

mank1234:
It's not decided yet. CAF/FIFA can still say that that Eritrea's group is off the picture and still go ahead with the 6-team permutation. It's a 50:50 decision that they'll have to take.

Care to explain this 6 team permutation?

This whole Eritrea situation totally changes everything. While a 1st place finish is out of our hands, we are surely in the drivers seat when it comes to finishing as one of the best 2nd place teams.

Ragingthunder:
.

SA will be confused at this point. I am certain that their game plan was focused on a Nigerian attack that was hinged on Osimhen.

Dannyxy:
That point would be removed, I don’t know why Nigerians stomach anyhow ness and even suggest it, people broke standard rules with consequences, so why shouldn’t they be punished?

That’s why this country is probably the way it is, you think if it’s Algeria or Morocco in our shoes South African will not already be jittery?, they will make sure the right thing is done, but see Nigerians all over still second guessing all over the internet ?like why wouldn’t it be removed? Because? In Nigeria people break laws and go unpunished, and we are out there projecting our poor values and systemic inadequacy. Thankfully the whole world is not Nigeria, South Africa will be punished and probably fined.

England vs Germany, Germany play a suspended player, the news will be on repeat on all sport stations, but our journalists are not even sure, they can’t even say it with confidence South Africa point will be deducted to give more spotlight and force the FIFa to protect their integrity, such poor sports journalists that can’t do any research and play the politics of sport journalism.

You play a suspended player, you already cheated, and you will pay for it, it’s standard protocol.

You are looking to deep into my statement. The eventuality of everyone being deducted points from games with the bottom placed team is a given due to already established rules and the exit of Eritrea. The Mokoena situation will take much longer as SA will surely drag this to the CAS and trigger a legal battle that may drag for months.

CapitalCee:
Every match against the bottom placed teams in the groups apart from the group that has 5 teams will be discounted. In the case of our group, the 2 points we got versus Zimbabwe will be removed, if we finish 2nd. For Gabon in group F, the 6 points the got from Seychelles will be discontinued. This will be done after all the matches are concluded. By then we will see who finished 2nd in all the groups and who finished last. This method has been consistently been adopted by FIFA, UEFA and CAF previously. I think if we win all our matches we will be among the best runner up 100%, but any slip ups will be dicey

This needs to be explored more on here. This is much more certain than SA being deducted 3 points for Mokoena

Maladaise:
Chukwueze has to start against South Africa especially in the CAM role he played against Jamaica where he shined, if there's one player that always plays his best against South Africa, it's Chukwueze.

Chukwueze is an inconsistent mixed bag. You never know which version of him will show up so you just pray. His performance at the AFCON final still pissess me off.

Congrat to the boys. One game at a time. Even if they manage to win all remaining games but dont qualify OR move on to next round, they would've earned my respect. Next game with SA, everyone must go for broke. Bodies on the line. Sacrifice everything. Leave it all out on the field.

Not watching the game. Are these guys in any position to score another goal?

Karlovych:
Calling up poor players like Taminu, Sodiq and Iheanacho in the early stages of the qualifying games led to this, now almost everyone is a mathematician.

Forget about the math cause even if we win all of our remaining encounters, theres no guarantee that we finish among the best 2nd place teams. It's over.

Maladaise:
Take a look at the table with 3 full games to go. Gabon is likely going to finish second from their group and they already have 18 points! That is with 3 games left to play. Look at Cameroon's group. Cameroon, at second, already has 15 points with three games to play.

No second place team from Nigeria's group will get to the World Cup. Take that to the bank. It isnt happening. Moreover, let me add -- there will be multiple second placed teams that will finish no less than the 19 points that Nigeria cannot overcome even if Nigeria wins the group. The only route is to win the group and win by huge margins. South Africa already understands this and their agenda is to run up scores making South Africa v Nigeria + forfeiture forced by FIFA irrelevant. Our only path is to run up scores BIG!!

What this means is that Nigeria must win her remaining games with nothing less than 3 goals, starting from tomorrow...if it means packing the bus and scoring those goals on the counter with 25% possession, so be it.

Thank you for this. What scares me most is that I highly doubt the NFF is communicating the same urgency indicated in this post to the players. We truly bleeped up.

mrwilliams9:
Unless SA is deducted 3pts, SE are not qualifying for the WC. We should just focus on winning this upcoming AFCON

They should aim to be one of the best 2nd place teams at this point. NFF phucked around with managerial selection in the beginning and is now finding out

See the hole NFF dug themselves into. Yikes lol.

There was honor in these roles back then. What happened to this country?

9JAMac10:
Instead of Nigerians to focus on the double header games ahead. We discussing fifa deduction of points from South Africa. Super eagles fans look before you leap. Wishing our boys maximum points in their matches this week

It's about equal application of the law. We were penalized for the same thing after 2018 qualifiers. We qualified with a game to spare so it didn't affect our qualification. FIFA should hold the same line this time around

He should be thankful that he found another team in a top 5 league.

Is there anyway Lookman can rejoin Atalanta first team?

Congratulations to Chuks, Boni, Tolu and Uche. Great moves all around! Also lovely to see our EPL contingent expand. I pray for Lookman - this too shall pass.

See big bakasi in blue dress?!?! Abeg who is she?? Does she have insta?

mostob:
Fabrizio na big fuuuuuu

This is why Nigerian players need to be careful with their social media engagement. Fabrizio does not understand Pidgin.
