Madagasger cannot beat Mali.

Our main opponents are Burkinafaso . We need plenty of goals. SMH

Chelle will work on Mali for us.

minfelix:
from the update deductions, they need to beat Ethiopia at home with more GD to stand a chance
Then Madagascar need to beat Mali

God abeg!!!
We can take this opportunity by walloping Lesotho to increase our goal tally and finish it up in Uyo against Benin Rep.
Lets also pray against yellow cards ooo. Some of our guys have one yellow card from previous matches.

[quote author=TheSuperNerd post=137077994]Super Eagles' Redemption Window: Mission 1, Beat Lesotho well

Watch X video link below

Victor Osimhen was telling Chukwueze that if we played SA on the Polokwane pitch we will face Lesotho on today, that we would have won.

Chukwueze was seen saying SA carried us to a potato farm instead of this fine grass. Lol

Osimhen in calm but Beastly mode.

Full Monster Machine mode will activate once gametime arrives.

noticed Osimhen and Lookman were not talking to themselves or avoiding themselves. I hope it is well?

Mujtahida:
Are we going to cry or laugh when today ends? The overwhelming sentiment is one of hope and uncertainty.

I want to advise Nigerians not to put mind in today's game to avoid HBP. Just enjoy the game.

Sugarboyy:

See the same SPAIN that were beaten by Morocco and drawing Mexico; almost in DISDAIN now bringing PAIN, brimstone and RAIN on UKRAINE. See ehhh, you will GAIN if you don't give up in VAIN.

Super Eagles play Lesotho on the 10th right? Any info on arriving players?

Teams that qualifies with 9maximum points or top their groups in group stage usually struggle or lose to teams that qualify as 3rd best in next stage…Argentina go hear am..
na so portugal take wire group leaders Wales
na so CIV take pursue senegal and their 9points
na so Tunisia take pursue eguavoen and his 9points
na so Nigeria as 3rd take pursue Argentina and their 9points in last u20 world cup….

it will happen again, this time no woodwork🤣

I say Amen to your prayers bro

minfelix:
i didn’t watch this match, i just woke up to read people post from the kick off to final whistle.

kind of people of this thread
1. “game play time insulters”: these set of people will always use there frustrating analysis during the course of play…they will always make those who are not watching to believe the boys are totally trasshh from start to probably when there’s a goal(equalizer or winner)
2. “the strange moniker poppers”: these set of newbies or probably oldtime ghost moders will just pop out from no where and be cursing at players, after match you wont ever see them again😂😂🤣

3. “the silent optimists who doesn’t wanna argue or engage with cr@zy pessimists and bad mouthers”:

These ones will wait till the final whistle and suddenly the thread narrative of how a match was played will just suddenly change..
“the boys had a good game,they were so unlucky to hit the woodwork thrice”.
“this team will produce like 4 to 5 super eagles players in future”
And im like did two different flying eagles play?🤣

This highlighted point got me cracking my ribs. True bro.

TheSuperNerd:
Chaaaiiii... I will miss Sani Suleiman against Argentina oooo. Orseer Achichi or whoever will play LW gotta be ready to play proper balluuu.

I thought that in knock out stages the suspension one garnered at the group stages are cancelled?

We need Ejuke in our midfield. Chelle should please extend invitation to him ASAP

Flying eagles may face Argentina if we are 3rd in the group.

yinkeys:
To be honest Nigeria don’t deserve it because we are not organized
But God just love Nigeria sha lol
Chance after chance
Only entertainment is what Nigerians can smile about lol
Not confirmed yet but this could happen
South Africa will not know what hit them
That 3 points they lost to Lesotho was vital
Zimbabwe are bottom feeders lol
We have two points from Zimbabwe
South African definitely have 6 points lol

So you mean if Eritrea's absence counts and FIFA dock points from bottom teams like Zimbabwe, our group will now become like this

Benin- 14-4= 10pts
Nigeria - 11-2= 9pts
South Africa - 14-6= 8pts

God too like Naija abeg. 😃

yinkeys:
Lol na this coach make us Dey use calculator na
Eritrea or so pulled out
The group with 5 teams
For equity sake, they have to deduct points from all the groups so that there’s fairness to determine 2nd position that would make playoff
So Nigeria can still have a chance
Cameroon go Dey that playoff too lol

See lifeline for Nigeria abeg. Ormoh Chelle must take his chances well

semid4lyfe:
Underwhelming list for world cup qualifiers. Too lean in the midfield and heavy upfront. To say I'm disappointed will be an understatement.

Hope we win the two games, and miraculously make it to the world cup.

I reserve my comments on Coach Eric Sekou Chelle until after the qualifiers.

Is it that there is a draught of central midfielders in Nigeria or wetin?

Chelle should not mess up with the remaining two qualifiers. We need to win these games handsomely

Damiana5248:
Joy Omewa, the Nigerian striker who plays in the Danish league, will be a good addition to the Super Falcons set.

Madugu has not started playing the Chioma Okafor girl.

yinkeys:
I’m not a fan of 4 at the back since we have error prone defenders
I’d prefer 3-4-3 because it hides our defensive flaws
I thought Nigeria would be able to effectively play like Mali at last years AFCON but it seems we can’t or don’t have the personnels to do it
Or Éric Chelle just chose to play Lookman in a position that doesn’t showcase his strengths

These days I don't even know the wing Lookman really plays

yinkeys:
Morocco will top their group of death lol
Nigeria need to win against Colombia to avoid heavyweights
South Africa also need a win against USA
Can all 4 African teams qualify

It looks dicey for Flying Eagles. If we top the group we face runners up in Group E (France/South Africa). If we are runners up, we face Paraguay. If we are 3rd place we face Morocco. Ormoh!!!!

yinkeys:
Injury wan finish our midfield
Ekong was fantastic in 2016, maybe 2018,2019 & 2024
Man has been making errors lately

Our defense is mistake prone. Even Semi Ajayi makes mistakes/scores own goals. But the good thing is that Ekong, Ajayi and Bassey also score goals for Nigeria

daveP:
This is the dumbest invite for midfield section for wcq I've seen in a long long while. Who compiled and okayed this dumb list? 😏😏😏😏😏


Chelle loves 442 and na 4midfielders he dey invite? They still want to use 442 again? 😹😹😹😹😹😹
So they plan to make Simon and Chuks enter middle to dey form midfielders?

I will be happy if Chelle pairs Osimhen and Iwobi in attack like the way Iwobi is played in Fulham while Sam Chuks plays 10

mekabuachi:
Is uche injured?💀

What kind of lean midfield is this biko?
Chelle you don start again

user32:
That no 9 is useless

And they said he is the next Osimhen

Is our line up out yet?

Spainever:
It is time for NFF and West African football associations to complain about the regional policy by CAF for under 17 and 20 qualifications. Paring best teams against themselves does not make sense. Nigeria , Ghana and Senegal cannot qualify for under 20 because they have to eliminate themselves. West Africa has good result and better teams in world cup ,why not allow the best teams to qualify ? Why should Nigeria play against Ghana in under 17 qualifiers ? These two countries have the best results. Ivory coast and Cameroon could not qualify for women AFCON because they played against Nigeria .

Since Dr Motsepe assumed office, this has been the order of the day. I'm so pained that a golden generation of Golden Eaglet players of 2025 and 2026 will go unforgotten because of a stupid policy which doesn't develop the West African subregion. If they must use this format in WAFU B comprising of seven teams; Nigeria, Benin, Cote Ívoire, Togo, Ghana, Niger, Burkina Faso- then why not play it the way it is done in South America, each team play themselves in a league format and the two top teams qualify. This is much better instead of this 2 group thing system that eliminates the best by mistakes or shear luck.

Nomyth:
Na wa oooo.

The rest of Africa really did us dirty with this kind of arrangement.

So we can only have just 2 of Nigeria, Ghana, Ivory Coast and Burkina Faso at the Afcon. These 4 are the traditional powerhouse of African football at u17 level.

Even if they are hell bent on this satanic arrangement, wafu should be demanding for at least 4 slots based on history and performance.

Missing out for the second time in a row after the fifa tournament has been expanded to 48 teams is so painful.


It is well sha.

CAF don do WAFU B teams like Nigeria strong thing.

Manu Garba should be permanently eased away from the U17s. He has tried biko

TheSuperNerd:
CIV leads 2-1 but I believe it was offside. It was kinda close but it was offside. Not fair to BFA. 63mins gone.

May God help our Golden Eaglets today

Colombia 1-0 Saudi Arabia
Norway 1-0 Nigeria

France 2-1 South Africa
USA 9-1 New Caledonia

All work, no win
