Depends on who I'm hate watching that day.

Jamiuokolaa:
He failed to boss any major final for club and country that year, so no one reckons with him

Abi you wan mention FWPOTY polling booth award?



21year okocha was one of the best players at the 1994 AFCON.

On the other hand, Kanu the defensive striker, kept clean sheets in front of goal during a span of 6 AFCONs in 12 years.

How you go dey ask R9 achievement for, specifically, 1996 but dey show us Okocha achievement for 1994?

What is good for the goose is good for the gander nah Just saying.

I no join the debate o.. I just dey observe

Ibime:
You should know that old white man by sight - Claude Le Roy, the legendary French manager who has coached Cameroon, Senegal and Ghana amongst other African sides

He coached Guinea and, I think, Mali too

fredoooooo:
I say i go swear for you

You don see where swear bounce off back to the swearer

PDPGuy:
Are you serious 😲

Yes na

Ibime:
Na wetin cross my mind. FIFA would have banned them.

DRC would have gone to WC and we would have gone to the qualifiers

Exactly.

Na so Naija for sneak in through the back window.

fredoooooo:
Epe ni ztimbros wan collect from me..
I dont ell am I dont joke with My green white green .
Proud Yoruba .. proud Nigerian anywhere around the globe

Wetin be meaning of this thing you type up there?

airmark:

So, Nicolas Jakujaku Jackson must be on the official one. When i drag you when he doesn't make the team, i don't want you to reply with your mumu 'ignored' line.

Can you quote where I said Jackson made the official XI?

airmark:
Who assisted Enzo's goal against Los Angeles? You guys will argue stupidly with confidence based on a wrong premise.

Even if you dey sleep, dem show you that line up say na official TOTT, you go accept?

So Nigeria could have qualified for World Cup if Senegal didn't return to the pitch after the walk out they staged

afrodoc2:
Because Senegal is pressuring them you support Senegal but all the years Barca, Madrid, Liverpool, Man City were playing better football you stuck to Chelsea.

Magnificent calculation.

Apples and oranges.

I must NOT support ANY single National Team the way I support my club side, Chelsea.

Say something else.

N.B: The bolded is incorrect. I supported Senegal BEFORE they start pressuring them. It's on record here. The moment the fixture is confirmed, I supported Senegal, even though I didn't expect them to win.

.

I just saw a clip wey the Moroccans wan try that towel rubbish for Mendy near post. Omor... One guy from Senegal bench go drag the towel with the o. And match dey go on.

Senegal prepared for this match very well. They were out for anything Morocco wan do. They knew its practically a war front.

But SE soft like aje butter pikins dem dem take your towel, you no talk, you go bring another towel. Dem still take that one, you no open eye for them..... Na the kind ninnies una want me to come dey support. Bloody drama queens.

Trevor012:
What are you telling me. Bro was just waiting to collect the ball. Next time una go leave fair play for house

I talk am nah. Both Brahim and Mendy acted out instructions given to them make peace reign.

Senegal gree die dem for no come back pitch if they no resolve the matter like dat.

airmark:
And they scored after he was bundled out as usual.

Did he score against any team not named Botswana?

No more benching, it's bundling out?

See poto poto for you face

Jamiuokolaa:
Haha

I like this your confidence o - e be like say you dey report live from the stadium

I don give you the live analysis of wetin happen

raumdeuter:
What did Mane do today to deserve MOTM

Not only was he MOTM, he should deservedly be POTT and even the next APOTY.

airmark:
You like celebrating glory thieves, not surprising.

I thought Jackson gets benched in important matches?

Amethyst101:
I see people on here saying Diaz missed the penalty on purpose ...una just dey muzz me...lol

You see person singlehandedly dey shout, cry and wail on top ref to the point of influencing a VAR check, and say he intentionally miss am.

Diaz dey look for Aguero Moment ... unfortunately for him, he only recreated the infamous Aguero Moment against the same Mendy at the Etihad in 2021

Order from above.

Coaches, captains and officials don discuss the way forward. PK is PK. Cannot be cancelled. Best thing is to miss the PK let game continue.

Brahim was given the instruction to panenka the PK. Mendy was told the PK is a panenka. Easy save. Match continue.

My only concern is, why use Brahim as the scapegoat? Dem for use Mazroui or that long El Neysri or any other player instead of starboy Brahim.

airmark:
You are right as Jakujaku jackson clinched the golden boot and golden ball awards. Ballon d'or next for him.

At the final whistle, the first thing that came in my mind was "I no go pepper Airmark with pictures"... I go try my best to keep to that promise.
















But I fit change my mind any moment

Kimbeast:
He clearly said he was supporting Senegal.

No mind Popi

popizaino:
Cho Cho Cho Cho Cho Cho.


Allow Cho Cho Cho to rest small now.

Where is the cho cho in what I said? Did CAF not do anything possible to hand Morocco the trophy? Did I not make it clear that I am supporting Senegal?

Abobi wida?

Any Canadian resident here? Please help us check on Airmark. Please.

The pain of seeing Jackson wear another medal after Conference League and CWC, and after rhe 138th FIFA ranking troll, it might just be too much for him.

Suicidal thoughts might just be creeping in.

He might be annoyingly stubborn, but we still need him here for comic relief.

Please check on him.

MOROCCAF

I said it

Dem don rob the match las las

Sadio Mane.

My new POTT

Na 50 50 challenge be that ooooo

Ibime:
This new South African CAF President has killed the fun of African football. AFCON to be replaced with this rubbish below. Who is in Southern Africa apart from SA and maybe Zambia. Also who is in East Africa

So Senegal, Nigeria, Mali, Cameroun, Ghana, CIV will be killing themselves while South Africa is chilling


Format of the African Nations League.

✅ Teams will be divided into four geographical zones: North Africa, East Africa, West Africa, and Central & Southern Africa.

✅ Each zone will have its own group-stage matches, with teams facing each other in September and October.

✅ The top team from each zone will qualify for the final phase in November.

✅ The final phase will see the four regional winners compete to determine the champion of the African Nations League.

Cameroon will slug it out with South Africa though.

But the format na total rubbish

Na the eye dey bleed so?

Kimbeast:
Our approach against them in that semifinal is now starting to annoy me.

Simple sturv.

Those full backs marauding runs make it look like they were play 14 against 11... Use your wingers keep them busy, dem no go fit come out. See wetin Mane dey do Hakimi.

raumdeuter:
See chance wey Ndiaye miss

Who gave him that sweet pass

He who must not be named.
