Park: “How did Brazil 🇧🇷 do in that under 17 World Cup?” 🤔

Rafael: “We lost to Ghana 🇬🇭”

Fabio: “They(Ghanaian players) said they were 17 years old but I don’t think so…I spoke with one of them. He already had 3 kids.” 💀🤣

Africa with their age reduction

Short term gain, long term suffering..

It can't be high scoring because we can limit barca, we already tamed bayern
I just want easy route to final because I know Simone will be planning his own harramic tactics too

Let's navigate Sporting fess. I don't think we will have an easier route to the final than this. The opportunity is there for the taking. With the right mentality and tactic, we should make it to the final.

So you the second coming of battle of the Al-haram
Home and away, its oy God that will save the football world that day

It doesn't matter who we play after this round (Barcelona or Atletico) Arteta already has his haram book ready for that semi-final. That is why I'd rather Atletico because Barcelona pressure go eventually burst pipe. We will be relying on set-pieces, corner, throwing and counter attack because they will dominate possession. Their domination of possession is not like our own where we don't create any chance(s) with it. They will create a lot of chances and I worry our defense, while great, can't contain them over 2 legs.

if it becomes high scoring, do you think we can match Barcelona?

raumdeuter:
That Atletico no dey serious, they almost blew a 4-0 first leg lead in the Copa del Rey

One thing sure sha, Arsenal go use them wipe ground wella

Exactly what I am telling my guy Oyin. I'd rather face Chulo than Flick. Arteta's tactics and style is better suited against A. Madrid versus Barcelona.

iamoyindamola:
Atletico in this knockout stages are different animal, Barca have shown their weaknesses alot
If Chelsea can wipe them like thief and Arteta don't behave like coward we can trash them at the Emirates and first draw at camp nou

Na here problem dey! Chelsea beat them under Maresca, who is a more daring and enterprising tactician in comparison.

I don't trust Arteta against Flick. Even after going down 10 men, Barcelona were all over A. Madrid and were very unlucky not to score.

Based on Arteta's tactics & style of play, I'd take my chances against Chulo.

iamoyindamola:
At this point I will prefer Barca than Atletico
We have played Atletico before and the way PSG reorganise to beat us in the knockout stage H/A I don't want to meet Atletico again

I'd rather we avoid Barcelona at all cost. They play a high intense and fluid attacking football. I don't trust that we can survive their attack over 2 legs, despite their average defense. Atletico's style suites us better. Barca have too many individually brilliant players that can hurt any team.

VVD the yansh bender

I better not see another pose for his Anfield statue..

raumdeuter:
Baba the kain palpitations wey Arsenal dey give me.

if Arsenal end the season trophyless, I will take PTO from work just to laugh

Friends wey I think say don lose my number, don begin buzz me say dem wan win QUADRUPLE

Are u watching the post game show on CBS?

The tension in the studio is pretty high.

That should be a PK

This could easily have been 4-0 in favor of PSG.

They need to kill this tie with 1 more goal

Liverpool with 0 shot on target

raumdeuter:
Baba you sure say Arsenal no go use Atletico stroll into final

Who between barcelona and Atletico will make life harder for Arsenal

Which kain wicked heart you get laidis? 4 teams are plying today but u still dey book future winch for me.

Allow the poor.. Small allowance na..

The beauty of this buildup is that Liverpool were expecting a cross but decided to pick a pass through the middle versus wide.

The ease with which they are picking Liverpool apart ehn!

Liverpool need to move on from VVD.

iamoyindamola:
We must get that guy

Until Arteta converts him to a deep lying defensive striker abi?

Liverpool are struggling with the fluidity and movement of PSG's front 3.

J. Neves that was an open opportunity

Chulo na mad man..

popizaino:
Liverpool are terribly coached.

I have to agree Alhaji. They look out of sorts and everywhere on the pitch.

EmmanuelScott1:
Ngbo Raumdeuter 😁😁

If dem decide to build statue for VVD, na "Setting Nyash pose", dem suppose use for VVD.

What was Hakimi thinking there

iamoyindamola:
They lost the ball and had little time to reorganise

The entire scene looked chaotic. They had 4 players chasing the ball at different stages in the build up to the goal. The less said about Konate..

PSG is building their attack with so much ease.

Liverpool were essentially chasing shadows. They looked totally disorganized in the lead up to that goal.

D. Doue!

Doue!

I no sure say Liverpool don enter PSG half sef

mine3112:
Why is Arteta not playing Norgard? He may not be a prime Zubi but the guy is very intelligent and can make thing happens for us.

Arteta is the most cautious coach I have seen in a very long time. He sticks to what works for him and when it is not working, he very rarely goes away from what he knows.

I don't think he'd be willing to make any major tactical adjustment at this stage of the season, so I expect him to ride it out with the current setup. Rice provides that safety for his tactics particularly at the back because of his versatility and ability to cover spaces quickly.

andrewbaba44:
Upamechanic has always play better for France than Saliba ,but you guys aren’t ready for this conversation

There is no conversation to be had. I am not sure what you have been watching since 2024 when Saliba became a starter.

airmark:
He still scored a vital goal.

The way Kane has disgraced you, you shouldn't be mentioning his name on Nairaland without putting 'Sir' in caps. Where is your Martial now?

This your post ought to have sent you to the gallows.

Not taking sides in your banta with Dayo but I could not help but think about A. Martial for a second.

Martial is just 30 and already done with top flight football sha!

Sad story

daveP:
Lol. With Partey, Rice was doing great with Chances created and his Balon d'Or ranking proved that too. You can fly with any other levels but not this "Zubi made Rice a better player" one abeg. It's really Hilarious. We all can see how terrible Zubi is at his job versus big clubs and how it gives Rice EXTRA duties at the back.

Zubi gives the panic jibe when we play top 6.

His duty is he made Rice better but every time he's watched, he's caught ball watching for up to 10 goals from opponents, aside the erroneous passes?

Okay

The confidence baba take type like say no be the same Zubi we dey watch?

Yesterday, he repeated the same mistake with an ill-advised back pass to Raya that nearly resulted in a goal.
