BascoVanVeli:

Please what does this mean? Have Flamingos qualified?

BascoVanVeli:
Super Eagles B vs Ghana
The guys did good.

I was impressed with that Enyimba goalkeeper and the defense. Coach Daniel and Fidelis have to work on the attack.

TheSuperNerd:
So Ghana U17 wins on penalties. Uzoma followed nearly all the pens Ghana took against her but her reaction was always slow.

Anyway, we move.

Happy to see Chidi Harmony showing her stuff as our next real Number 9 at this tournament. She scored 4 goals in all. 3 vs CIV and 1 vs Ghana.

Janet Akekoromowei is another fine CF potential.

I thought this Uzoma girl will toe in the line of Nnadozie but let's give her some time with more exposure. As for Chidi and Janet, they are both great stars of the future

AkinDS:
As always, Bankole and his team fail when it matters the most.
Keep losing the crucial games.
No reason why they should have lost this game to a below average Ghanaian team.

He and Danjuma are cut from the same clothe, lacking the tactical intelligence to defeat the more competitive teams.
Nothing but local Champions.

Both coaches should be sent on refresher courses by NFF if they must handle our age grade teams.

Please what is the significance of this WAFU B cup tournament in qualification for world cup next year? I thought CAF has drawn up qualifying matches to that effect?

elyte89:
Relax …I knw what to do 😎

Mr Fix it
Eshe oooo😃

We really have great talents in the Super Eagles. Our problem is how to harness them for better results. I just hope whoever the new incoming coach is, he will be able to fix things right

TheSuperNerd:
Ola Aina is the best Rightback/Right Wingback in Africa currently. No debate.🔥

Showed it at Afcon 2023. And his form gets even better in the EPL under Nuno Espirito Santo.

What of Hakimi?😃

Morrocan fans booing Ademola Lookman and calling him thief (Saariq) yesterday is uncalled for. CAF should stop hosting this CAF award event in Morocco please.

Amedino99:
this egbon no go misyarn ke? Banned large to misyarn sure pass tax and death.

Success get so many friends my brother

Danielnino00:
Lookman's rise to the top has been truly amazing..

I'm glad we got him...

Floodgates of foreign borns in Super Eagles now open because of LOOKMAN

Joebie:
normally this is supposed to be another golden generation for us. I hope we dont miss another WC

We must qualify for this world cup ooo. We can't let this talent go down the drain

TheSuperNerd:
Janet Akekoromowei is a big girl. She has the targetman profile for the number 9 role. A real potential. Harmony Chidi is more mobile, more skillful and can take on her markers.

I won't say Janet is better but she just commands more presence as a number 9 due to her impressive size and height. Harmony has proven herself a real deal number 9.

For me, it is exciting having both competing against each other in their rise to become the Super Falcons' next big number 9.

Both are awesome talents.

Taiwo Afolabi is missing in this team. What happened?

Danielnino00:
Expanding the finalist of the APOTY to 5 names rather than the usual 3 shows that CAF is up to something sinister..


Well, like somebody said, they would be embarrassing themselves if they give it to anyone other than Lookman...

When I talk una go say I dey hear anything. Oya na

BankyGee:
😂😂😂😂
Still not enough, if there'd be any Moroccan on the top 3 seff, it should definitely be Soufiane Rahimi who actually powered the team to winning the bronze medal, became the first player in Olympics history to score in every single match from group stage till the last game, won the golden boot, scored a hat-trick against Al-Hilal to win the Asian Champions League, won the golden boot and also won the golden boot in the UAE league... 🤷🏾‍♂️

None of them can stop Ademola Lookman.

The politics has been done in Morocco. Winners have already been decided. All these your talk na medicine after death

But why must Morocco host every CAF thing on this continent?

CAF may be plotting for Hakimi to win the APOTY with what we are hearing. But the question is how justifiable is this? We wait and see....

Super Falcons will face either Benin Rep or Sierra Leone in WAFCONQ 2026 qualifiers which also serves as Brazil 2027 world cup qualification. Only 4 semi finalist at WAFCON 2026 will qualify for world cup

When is Nigeria senior men national team appointing a new coach European preferably

January

Head Coach Bankole Olowookere has invited 25 players to camp as Nigeria’s U-17 women’s national team, the Flamingos, prepare for the WAFU B U-17 Girls’ Cup in Ghana, Soccernet.ng reports

Despite a 2-0 defeat to eventual bronze medalists, the USA, in the quarter-finals, the team showed immense promise.

Topping the list is star midfielder Shakirat Moshood, who scored four goals in the World Cup.

Moshood is joined by first-choice goalkeeper Christiana Uzoma, defenders Taiwo Adegoke, Jumai Adebayo, and Prisca Nwachukwu, as well as midfielders Farida Abdulwahab and forwards Harmony Chidi, Peace Effiong, and Janet Akekoromowei.

Full Squad List:

Goalkeepers: Christiana Uzoma (Edo Queens); Elizabeth Boniface (Sunshine Queens); Sylvia Echefu (Bayelsa Queens); Chiamaka Enebeli (RoyalTom FC)

If I were SE coach, I will first ask Iwobi of his favorite position then fashion my team around him.

Shikena

ThePresenceWtf:
Damn....Amaka Saved That!! Wow!!

Nice follow up block from the No. 13.

Current score please

lexyman:
its better for us to experience this defeat now , than having it during the WC qualifier ... that will be too bad ...

Exactly...
Better to lose to Rwanda, Benin, South Africa, Lesotho now than next year when world cup qualifiers start.
Now we know who is who.
AE knows that there is serious work to be done. NFF can decide to bring in a foreign coach now (though I think time is short) or we can leave AE and reorganize that technical department by bringing in Siasia as assistant.
I advise we also bring back Ahmed Musa and this time let him play as creative midfielder like Iwobi.
For our defense, it's time we bring in Adarabioyio, Tourinagha, Udokhai into the mix.
Final question. Can we still convince VicMo back to SE?

Samueltemi337:
Don't be too quick to talk

I watched the game too and almost wrote them off and stopped watching at the 83rd minutes only to return and discovered they won. The team is highly talented but have poor finishers. I got pissed off when that girl lost her penalty. Congratulations to Edo queens.👍

Deltamani:
Group stage draw na…

Ok. Thanks

Please when is Edo queens playing their game against Mamelodi Sundowns?

Deltamani:
MOROCCO 🇲🇦 2024 WAFCON DRAW

CAF has scheduled the draw for the 2024 Women Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco for next Friday at the Mohammed VI Football Complex in Rabat, with live broadcast on Arriyadia channel.



The 2024 Women's Africa Cup of Nations is set to take place in Morocco from Sat, 5 Jul 2025 – Sat, 26 Jul 2025

I thought qualifiers has already been played?

TheSuperNerd:
I surely understand the frustrations with Iwobi. I have them too. It is why I had really hoped Nwakali came good or was given a shot at some point. But Iwobi is all we've got at this point in time from a creative POV.

Akinsanmiro is still growing but I also think he should be given a shot. Until they look his way, Iwobi is all we have.

Bashiru is not your creative CAM-type... he is a shooter. A scoring MF type who will break the lines with his running, do linkup passes up top and drive into space to receive and strike or lay a simple final ball.

With Iwobi, it is frustrating because he has not had actual competition for his profile for years now. And this is due to the coaches refusing to invite similar player profiles who could give Iwobi a run for his money.

So it is okay to see OOB but don't expect Bashiru to do any incisive creative shit. He is not that profile. He's built different.

For a minute yesterday, I felt we sold the match because of Rohr because Benin were all over us.
AE should learn from yesterday's game.
1. Never play Iwobi and Ndidi in a 3-5-2
pattern. Ndidi gases out easily unlike Onyeka. Iwobi plays too deep
2. Never leave Moses Simon on bench again
3. Iheanacho has lost it. Should not be invited anymore.
4. Let's now see Maduka Okoye in goal against Rwanda
5. Aina is always overworked or stressed out in 3-5-2.

Super Eagles gk stanley Nwabali sadly announces the passing of his father🥺…our condolences to the family of Mr Nwabali

My condolences to him. I knew his mind was not in that game yesterday.

I think we sold this match. Otherwise, I think Rohr is a good coach. He has really studied our team inside out, We would just try to force a draw against Rwanda in Uyo. That's all!

Samueltemi337:
Eguavoen is available

Is he still sick?

Good morning guys. Please give us SE's camp jist

mekabuachi:
Only Sadiq Umar never reach camp until now
That boy abi man life just dey somehow.
