Bye bye to the Oyinbo wall but then again one has to be careful in dismissing players. Who would have believed that Ekong would post consistent commanding performances in the wake of his last two Pre-afcon games for us?
Rohr did something to the mind of our players. He was an excellent scout but not - so great as a coach.

DarkJeddi:
By implying a goal bound ball he stuck out a leg to save..

Was A TAME SHOT THAT HIT HIS LEG..

That is you implying the ball was not heading to goal..

That is you implying he knows nothing about stopping the ball from going in..

That is you discrediting his effort in saving a goal..

Like I said..

Give the devil his due..

DarkJeddi:
It's ridiculous when you deliberately seek to demean and discredit a player..

What is more ridiculous is your attempt to inject a veneer of objectivity in your bias..

WHAT exactly do you mean by a TAME SHOT THAT HIT MADUKA'S FOOT?

Is MADUKA'S foot now an immovable goalpost?

Even if you don't like the boy..

Give him credit when it's due..

He stuck out a foot and saved a goal bound ball and this is what you reduced it to?

Nigeria is playing against the 3rd placed team in any of Group B/E/F in the round of 16
i.e Either Malawi/Sierra Leone/Mauritania

andrewbaba44:
What did Maduka did wrong today,like what fault ?

Dragging him for not saving a pk ?

Enter twitter and see for yourself

Una no rate Maduka fine , but please point out his wrongs at today game that made dem score

dkay51:
what?? he hasn't put a wrong foot forward?? make we take am easy dey cap.

I can count three in this match alone off the top of my head without rewatching.

First, he jumped to catch a ball (not under pressure I must add) and dropped the ball, luckily the Sudan forward wasnt close enough to make us pay.

Second he tried punch out a ball and it dropped right in front of him, luckily it was a green shirt.

Third, when he tried to dive to try an mop up the ball that Omeruo not took out.

Joebie:
The defense played a huge part. However. He stretched his leg to block Salah’s goal bound shot. Did he look confident in that game?

safarigirl:
The one and only time Salah was a real threat, it was Maduka that quenched him and he was only a threat because Ekong tried to play a fast one that was not so fast.

Una go just make person dey defend who dem no even suppose dey defend.

andrewbaba44:
The dragging of Maduka Okoye on Twitter looks like hating to me

They had to wait for him to concede a Pk

Too bad from Nigerians

Joebie:
Let’s not forget Salah is still barren because of Okoye. He looked very composed against Egypt though

Mousup40:
Nwakali the back passer should be replaced by frank onyeka going forward

Barrister026:
I have a question to ask

APART FROM OKOYE don't we have a better Goal keeper?

JohnBullMySon:
He has started behaving like Ejuke.

Omanambala:
Aina , while full of energy could be a little sluggish and lackadaisical in decision making. While he is okay and could do the job , I personally favor Ebuehi.

Omanambala:
This is pure emotions speaking not based on true assessment of the match. Nwada, go and watch the game a second time....lol
