Y did he wants to dribble across 3 players when he could pass the ball

Magneto is in action má people

Hopefully our goalie continues to be magnetic today

Ladies and gentlemen. I am happy to announce to you that the hour of the truth has just begun. The question "is it going to be or not to be "

Last minute mistake. E dey pain wella

1-0

Evathyst:
I'm not sure you know what you're typing. A Croatian team that is already on 6 points with a goal difference of +5 wouldn't be threatened by Nigeria's wishful winning. Let's just say Nigeria beats Iceland & Argentina, that gives us 6 points with what goal difference?


Bros, except Iceland wins there remaining 2 matches, Croatia don top already.


Lest I forget, all those people hoping the Super Eagles would win, you guys are the same reason why Buhari is our President today; expecting miracle in a hopeless situation.

Why don't we all just agree that the Super Eagles should prove themselves worthy of qualifying to the 2nd round and worthy of representing Africa by winning their next 2 matches rather than working out the easiest possible ways for them to scale through into the 2nd round.

As for me draws or wishing other teams to lose for Nigeria to qualify is not an option. Even if they qualify with luck, there are still bigger problems ahead

Ategberoson:
if they don't want to go home soon. they must not only win bt score many goals because there winning now won't make any different, there is still challenges ahead.


if eventually Iceland loose to us, they might beat Croatia and we might draw Argentina. are u thinking what I'm thinking


Nigeria must then win all the rest of the matches

At this stage, the easiest way forward for the Super Eagles is to just win their next 2 matches with as much goals as possible

Be careful of how you put your hopes and bets on Super Eagles. They are unpredictable and a potential heart attack trigger.

lilfreezy:
iceland go beat us. argentina go beat us. when we come down for plane, rain go beat us. hungry go beat us. buhari go beat us. sars go beat us.

Let's make it easier for Nigeria.

A victory for Croatia against Iceland and Nigeria go for a draw in their next two matches.

Too damn easy, but the other teams no come sell groundnut and popcorn for the World Cup now

Ridiculous argentina

Iceland is a strong and attacking team., judging from their first match.

And because they are a point ahead already against Nigeria they will come to the field with the mind that in the worst case they will draw the match against Nigerian. Physiologically, their winning spirit might not be as much compare to Nigeria winning spirit (IF SUPER EAGLES IS EVER GOING TO HAVE ONE At ALL ).

I think if Super eagles noticed this in their game tomorrow they should immediately capitalised on it. And even if not. They should play with all their heart

samtol4:
a win for Croatia gives them 6 and qualify and argentina will have just one point, we win iceland and draw argentina and qualify .If argentina win and then croatia beat iceland and we draw argentina we are out

Not bad analysis, however that is still If. It is not certain. It is difficult to predict westerners football, it could go either way. But
African football is somehow predictable. The best that could come out of this game for Nigeria from my own perspective is a draw to limit the scope of easy qualification of the other teams in the group into the 2nd round. This will also be a moral booster our SUPER WONDER EAGLES. Physiologically, they will still have a feeling that all hope is not lost and with a bit of effort they could close the leading gap

AnonyNymous:

Croatia will surely beat Iceland. . .so I think its best to hope they top the group with 9 points. If we win Iceland tomorrow** and can park the bus against Argentina for a draw we'll have four points and qualify second.

If Croatia should top the group today. There will be 3 desperate teams left in the group fighting for the 2nd position. But if the match end up as a draw today and if Nigeria should win tomorrow then the equation will be almost balanced, meaning all teams in the group have almost the same equal chance to be among the top 2 qualifier to the second round.

Even if Nigeria draws their match tomorrow, there is still hope. The only thing is that they must win their last match with many goals at all cost

samtol4:
Croatia win is the best for Nigeria

How bro. Please explain

kennosklint:
I pray this match should end in draw.draw might likely favour Nigeria

On 2nd thought, I think so too

CSTR1003:
I don't even know the best result that will benefit Nigeria from this game.

That is how discombobulated the super eagles make me feel.

AnonyNymous:
A draw or a win for Croatia would be best for Nigeria

How?

If Croatia won today's match they automatically qualified for the 2nd round, leaving Argentina to play almost to their death in order to win against Nigeria.

It favours Nigeria if Croatia lose

ChiefAzubuike1:
Croatia will beat Argentina or draw. Nigeria will beat Iceland. Nigeria will draw Argentina in their final game. Nigeria will qualify with 4 points. Argentina 3, Croatia 7 or 5 , Iceland 1 or 2

Hhmm, I will come back to your analysis after today's match

hollandis:
No one is obviously watching this match.Everyone is talking about groundnut oil.Typical of Nigerians in Nigeria always deviating from the topic

How come you have a clear insight into my mind

This Peruvian's team deserves winning the match. They are really not making life easy for the French team

Australia don change am for Denmark for this 2nd half ó.

sprints1:
my prediction will come to pass the winner of the world cup is a serious underdog don't be surprised...

Like Nigeria Abi? Nice one and a very good sense of humour

sophiathefirst:

only thinking of it is already beating faster, what will now happen when the game start.
We can only pray for them to do well. Wait oo, is it tomorrow or Friday that we ve match n what time pls

Our match is on Friday 4pm. Sincerely, I am already nervous. Not because we might just lose the match. But I don't want us to lose in a shameful way just like our first match. I am really fed up with my colleagues at work from other countries saying how disappointed they were about Nigeria performance in their 1st match .

ukorjoe:
I see Spain already through to the rounds of 16.... Still much work for Portugal tho. Iran is no walk over

Putting into account their performance today, I don't think so. The could do better but it was obvious that they were looking for a draw as they were defending most of the time. They started attacking when it was too late and the attack wasn't even that effective.

sharpwriter:



No mind am....the funniest scene I have seen in this world cup so far....we were just laughing. As if he was under a spell....that is the work of over anxiety and over expectation

Plus frustration

Did you guys see the Iranian player. Summersault throwing

Could it be off side

What is going on here

That's as good as an own goal

Iran is not attacking. They are just defending. If this should continue through the 2nd half Spain will definitely break through the defence at point.
