You don't get to place a premium value on what you didn't work for....It is what you earn on a platter of gold. Yahaya Bello should never come near the corridors of power again, after the dismal performance in the Kogi government house...but what do I know? He loves Baba and always paying homage at the Villa often. Baba May compensate him with a ministerial slot

Couldn't believe (before the match) that the French will struggle to get a goal. The Super Falcons tried and I hope they qualify as one of the 4 best losers.

etibaba:
I knew exactly what i wrote, go back and see group E where Cameroon will take on New Zealand, that group will most produce a best loser if there is a 2 goal win from any side. Even 2-1 in favour of Cameroon they are through. That's why i said if Argentina or Scotland qualifies then we will likely go out.

Well Argentina and Scotland will be playing. Cameroon and New Zealand as well. One of these two games might favour us

etibaba:
If any of the bolded qualifies then we are likely out.

How do you mean? Argentina and Scotland in the same group with 1 and 0 points respectively. They both have one game each to go. Others are hopeless,mathematically! Check the group standings again

Micology19:
Will Nigeria still qualify with this one nil defeet?

Absolutely. No other team has 4 points in the best loser's position except China in group B.

Congratulations to Nigeria! We made it with other best losers

China
Nigeria
Australia
Argentina or Scotland

Quote me after the final round matches of other groups

100% sure we will qualify even if we lose this game. Only For the best losers, four teams will be taken. China and Australia have better points as they are placed third in their group. Others have not gained any point except Argentina with 1 point.

This exploration is taking like forever to happen. This should be a plus to the construction industry but every government that comes to Alagbaka must play politics with this abundant bitumen, waiting to be explored.

Walk the talk!

The heart of man is desperately wicked so says the holy book.This is evil. They have to look for the money and refund. If you chop from the money , you must vomit it o

There was this man in the US who sent money to his younger brother to build a duplex. Initially wanted me to help him design ,supervise and deliver the project. Later heard he would be sticking to his family arrangement.

He came back to discover his younger brother had built a massive bungalow for himself, while his duplex was still not completed and work done was horrible.
They had to go pull down some sections of the structure.

Their mother did all she could ,to broker peace between the brothers, but it wasn't successful. Till now,after 3 years, the family is still not in harmony.

Some people can be so greedy and heartless.
Let me end with the scriptures-There are friends who stick closer than brothers. Not all brothers and family members are mean like this terrible experience OP shared.

This man does not fail to dissapoint. He runs the show at MURIC. One man mopol He churns out inciting remarks. I shudder at the type of statements he concoct...a Prof. for that matter

Not a good game at all.

Poor girls. The Norwegians will decimate the falcons. Horrible defending

Ridiculous speed . I don't do more than 110kmph. Life no get duplicate

Drawing board is already full and no space what is needed is eliminating or reducing to the nearest minimum nepotism, tribalism , bribery and use of connection without accompanying talent in choosing players and making sure only passionate players make the first team.

Yeah...The board is filled up with the vices you mentioned and thorough cleansing is needed. Aigbogun shouldn't have been the coach in the first place.He lacks the technical depth to build a decent national team. Jr should go back to the NPFL.

End of the road

Their 'best' performance in the competition

Poorest presented team

Back to drawing board

They had a fairly decent game with a dismal final third

What these guys di in the final third is appalling.

Okon should not be wearing 10

Not surprised. Just relaxing. Had low expectation. Shambolic performance

When you refuse to take your chances, you get punished for it

See glorious chance wasted

Ekaka1:
No mind spiff with him gragra...but he's good on the ball sometimes though...he might get a goal in this match

You are right...provided they take their chances

Captain with poor passing skills

These guys don't have football sense at all

virginboy1:
This fixed match spoil boys tickets gan!!!



On the contrary,

Happiness is when u thought you've eaten the last akara, but u touched the nylon and feel one one

I can relate with the akara joke. Happened several times o

Freehuman:
It wasn't staged. Ruiz knocked him out. It was shocking for him and every fan of the sport.

Wow! Very dissapointing one. I hope he gets back soonest

Freehuman:
Everyone talking about heavyweight boxing and muscles is clueless about combat sports. That was in nowhere a weightlifting or bodybuilding show, it was a main event boxing match. It's like you talking about football, 6 packs is just for show and not to score goals in boxing it's for aesthetics and apart from that has no other use. Well WWE has created the impression that muscular athletes are better.

Muscles is very bad in combat sports it sucks up your gas tank and leaves you completely disorganised in the long run. If a muscular athlete meets a well balanced flat athlete, the muscular athlete has two options which are to either finish off the match early or get disgraced later on because of stamina and endurance.

Tyson was muscular and a beast but the first time he lost was when he fought pass the 5th round, Douglas knocked him out on the 7th round. Your WWE muscular Brock Lesnar has always been disgraced at the UFC constantly by an obesed Looking Cain. To be a good fighter a boxer needs an iron chin, stamina ,technique, destroyer psychology and fearful demeanor. Joshua can boast of only technique which is not enough, he lacks the rest because he is more of a boxer who has worked hard to earn everything he has earned. The rest of qualities like iron chin, stamina destroyer psychology and fearful demeanor can't be bought. They come with talent, a boxer is born with it.

Mayweather lacked talent, was also a hard worker but he was a political boxer, he would lose if he fought outside the US. Joshua's promoters and management knew this but Joshua had become the face of the sport, the one who gets all the endorsements and ambassadorship. More than 10 million women in Europe and North America would pay anything to sleep with Joshua, they sexualize his social media pages always making advances, Joshua is a fine boy.

Joshua influenced, like that, became a Class fighter with finesse, a classic British Gentleman adorned with the highest award in United Kingdom at the age of 29. He wouldn't cheat a bit or play the boxing of politics and left his yard in UK to a place were foreign champions are disgraced, the USA. As a hardworker, you are clueless, you need to train differently for each fight. The short notice to fight Ruiz when "big baby" had failed doping test was also a factor . His long term training was for Miller and not Ruiz.

Wilder has talent and doesn't work hard on his technique. The only balanced boxer is the "Gypsy King" Tyson Fury, with a technique that is out of this world, he survived a 12 round hook from Wilder. Not up to 5 people in this world would survive that. He beat Klitchscho in Ukraine and drew with Wilder (though he was cheated) in the US. He has that demeanor and psychology game.

Well, having watched many generations of boxers at ESPN Classic channel, I can say that Joshua may end up as the greatest Boxer of all time, only Mohammed Ali will be compared with him.

Very interesting analysis. I enjoyed every bit of it.
My question is, was the game staged as some people mentioned.

pDudd:
The Mexican cartel paid Anthony Joshua to toss that fight. How can that obese, short, unfit boxer who looks like a bowl of eba say confidently that he beat AJ without it being a tossed fight.

If you know you know.

What does it means to 'toss' a fight?

Terrible passes from Liverpool today.

Liverpool can now be true winners with a splendid Origi goal

Brilliant clearance by Van Dirk

The guys should light up this game na...

Kane and Alli are no where to be found. Lucas still on bench? Salah should try and hold his own.
