Extremely disappointed. I looked forward to that Norway France match all week.

Easiest way to become a US citizen.

Makes sense

Why? Are there no other career options? Why do Black foreigners always join the US Army?

AndSunGorilla:
Folarin should be playing this game to increase his goal count for the US.

They are eyeing a deep tournament run. Not worth the risk.

Team USA's second string defenders ain't it. That should worrying when trying to go deep in this competition. Depth plays a much bigger role in a longer, expanded tournament

yinkeys:
Let’s also have male referees in the womens games

I agree

9JAMac10:
Female referee in men's sports, utter woke nonsense

If the female official in question has completed all the requisite FIFA courses and is truly qualified for the role, what is the issue?

Very pleased with the grit and determination shown by CAF nations recently. As for Asia, there will be a lot of soul searching done by the AFC once group stage ends.

Congratulations to the people of Ghana. Haramball masterpiece

Once England draws first blood, they will then open up and come out to play. Banku idiots

Hopefully the U23 under Chelle can see a return to the Olympics. Great news.

You look at a team like Senegal and you just know there’s a real psychological problem with African teams and it’s not necessarily the fear of European teams.

Something is wrong with us in the head. Probably low racial self esteem

At first, I was going to retort your post but I held back and thought about this for a minute.

Truth be told, if this was Nigeria (or any other African team), the Senegalese would've came out from 1', guns blazing without any trepidation or fear in their offensive game. They would've gone no holds barred and attempted to dominate from the get go. But when it's European opposition, they'll shrivel and play more 'cautiously '. Barring Cape Verde, it seems that North Africans are the only ones to have conquered this mental block.

Senegal is suffering the consequences of their best players playing in the Saudi Arabian league. I have never really rated this Senegalese team the way some of you guys do. Ivory Coast, Morocco, and Nigeria currently play the best brand of football in Africa. They are a very boring team to watch. There is very little dynamism in their game; everything about them is just so slow and boring.

I remember watching Senegal in AFCON 2021 when they only scored one goal in their three group games, and since then, I have never rated that team. I still maintain that after this World Cup they need to get a proper coach that will bring dynamism to their game.

I just don't get why he keeps playing a boring ass player like Sarr over Assane Diao of Como, Ilman Ndiaye, and Ibrahim Mbaye. If they lose this game, they are out of the World Cup. Senegal just does not have the offensive power to steamroll Iraq in their last game.

This is why I'm begging that Osimhen finds his way back to the top 5 leagues.

This is not a good look for CAF. These are the African champions were talking about smhl

Senegal need to get back in this quick!

TheSuperNerd:
Smh... u see yourself

Make I just jeep kwayet now .

Hatewatchers!! I dey hail una!!

Ppogbae:
I tip Ivory Coast to humiliate this German team

Putting this here for the record

What did I tell y'all! The humiliation will be televised!

Pray for Tunisia. That's all I got to say

Kog45:
It seems una dey rate Turkey cuz of Osimhen

It's not that. The Haitians gave a much a better showing and effort. At least lose with dignity.

33 shots, 78% possession, red card advantage and no goal.

Utterly horrendous. The Turks had no business being in this tournament.

That Hydration break just ruined Turkey's momentum. They were definitely gonna cook up some kind of attack via the wings. Very disappointing.

Remember when the Eagles used to give up early goals like that?

Good God! How is Turkey this bad? How do you give up a goal like that?

Allison should just blast the ball. This Brazilian team cannot string complete passes in their own half.

Amovingman:
50k won

Thank to Morocco and USA

Please keep betting out of this thread

Nigeria's absence just dey pain me. See all of these Scottish, Mexican and Korean fans partying it up in America.

Osimhen, Lookman, and the others don't deserve this. We the fans don't deserve this!

Wallahi, Argentina would give this Ghanian side 7-0

Some thing does not feel right with Ghana. I can't put my finger on it exactly but I feel that the friendly with Austria killed their spirits.

Joezinho:
Football is about results nt hypotheticals so using what ifs doesnt change what actually happened on the pitch.

You are somewhat proving my point. Folks on here lamented that DR Congo wasn't worthy of a WC spot when they lost to the Algerians.

Joezinho:
Nigeria doesn’t deserve to be at the World Cup.
DR Congo might just represent Africa better than Nigeria at the World Cup after all.

This is not a fair assessment. The reverse could've been said during AFCON when they lost to Algeria and then we went on to eliminate the Algerians.

The truth is teams adopt a different posture when preparing for the World Cup. Given our AFCON performance and recent friendly performance, I think we would've done well. Now imagine how our friendly performances would've panned out in the past month if we were world cup focused.

La Pulga!

Magic Man!
