Goke7:Kanu will not miss that Ndidi opportunity. Laye. Several times in the 18, I saw our players in a rush to shoot. I scratch my head. Player go don block you, you go still shoot. Why not cut and to another player or create space for yourself and shoot? Na coach go come teach them that one again? 2 Likes |

Mujtahida: Abi na nff, Me I no understand o you see why some of us are angry with the players? I watched a clip of that miss on social media, people for stadium just Dey shout Jesus! It’s appalling mhen |

We won against Rwanda but let me not lie, from the moment I saw Aina as left back and Chukwueze in midfield, I lost some ounce of faith. And then to repeat the same thing yesterday is unpardonable. I doubt Chelle's tactical nous. Aina is the best RB in the EPL. Why manage him as a left back and play a mediocre Osayi as RB? Wouldn't it have been better to play Aina as a RB and enjoy maximum performance from him and then play Bruno who is also good in ing the attack on the left? As long as we continue to play players out of position, things like these will continue to happen 3 Likes |

charlesemeka85: God bless you. They brought someone that was not up to par to fill in space for important matches, someone who doesn’t know will think we were top of the group, instead of the fourth we were languishing in. If Frank was on that team, after we scored, they could have thrown him in to lock that midfield, but what now happened? No personnel to carry out important duties during a game. I have never seen leaders that are so dumb. You haven’t qualified for a tournament, but you want to force your mid relatives inside team, who do they think is watching their mid relatives in a World Cup qualifier? All this nepotism thing is best done at the tournament proper, so, you can flunk out on a grand stage. The eyes you want, don’t tune in to African qualifiers, but they will all tune in to that tournament. Very dumb people 2 Likes 1 Share |

charlesemeka85:Lookman problem is that he likes to enjoy the limelight. Osimhen is very unselfish. He doesn't mind not scoring, so long as we win. Lookman had several opportunities to lay the but he dey always shoot even when them don block am. Everybody wan score. As time reach for Osimhen to score, him struggle? No! In a team with someone like Osimhen, we need someone like Oliseh to unselfishly feed him. Go watch Afcon 94, all Rashidi goals na Oliseh supply am. But Lookman wan score. Forgetting that what is important is qualifying for the World Cup. 5 Likes |

Mujtahida: Are we going to sack Chelle now? |
opes: 12:37pm On Mar 26 |
charlesemeka85: Zimbabwe defenders were all on Osimhen. Immediately he was substituted, they started going forward and attacking. Chelle should have brought in Yusuf, even Aribo to protect the lead instead of bringing in Boniface. Same mistake he made twice against Ghana when they scored his team 2 late goals in each half. 3 Likes 1 Share |

safarigirl:their mentality and belief is that super eagles will win their remaining matches and qualify easily ignoring the fact that opponents in the same group who already hv an advantage ahead of our team will do what ever it takes to maintain their advantage Even many here had the same mentality which I will tag as a disease because naturally we always believe that when it comes to African football that the super eagles is untouchable and unstoppable The NFF and a good number of fans still ignore the fact that football in Africa gets tougher as the year goes. Smaller nations are picking up in the sports rapidly |
charlesemeka85(m): 12:41pm On Mar 26 |
opes:even a novice in the sport know that’s the ideal thing to do, had it been the goal came in the first half it would hv been different because the game still have more minutes to be concluded but you scored 70 something minutes to take the lead and still maintained playing attacking football with a lean midfield of 2 men knowing fully well that the opponent will come at your midfield and defence with full force to see it they can force an equalizer |

We lost yesterday's match big time. It's like Zimbabwe won us 3-0. This issue of inverted wingers. Make una help me look am. See Aina's cross that led to the goal was what Simon should have been doing all game. But no, because of inversion he was always trying to cut to his right leg and the Zim guys never let him. A left footer would - just like Aina who is bipedal - have been whipping in crosses. I hate this inverted winger bullshyte. If at all it should be deployed, let it be on one wing not the two wings. And then you use it if you have highly skilled and technical players like Robben. No be for players like Chukwueze 2 Likes 1 Share |

Goke7:No but I doubt his tactical know how. |

Come to think of it…this could be a blessing in disguise guys cos from findings it shows dt the 3points will be deducted for sure and if that will happen,it means we still av d World Cup qualification in our hands Now let’s assume dis scenario played out in a must win game against Benin 🇧🇯 in d last game for us to qualify…so many ppu will have heart attack 😀😀😀😀 So guys we re still in it …3points will be deducted from SA CONFIRMED. 6 Likes 1 Share |

opes: We can blame the coach for all we can but conceding in the 90th minute is unforgivable by any standard and the fact that this has happened under different coaches shows we have a bigger problem. I was never sold on Chelle cos I felt we could let Finidi go why Chelle especially when we saw what he did at Afcon but we were all enthusiastic because we saw him as an attacking minded coach which is what most Nigerians want to see all the time. |
Odunayaw(m): 12:50pm On Mar 26 |
Kog45:For a defence that literally had nothing to do until the final moments. It is criminal that they conceded. It's not as if there were waves and waves of attack or something. Arokodare kept the pressure that Osimhen have them, heck they saw what he did in the build to our goal. I am very disappointed in Ekong and Osayi. |
charlesemeka85(m): 12:52pm On Mar 26 |
elyte89:deducting of 3 points from SA will be a huge advantage to the team but the problem is can our coach and players take advantage of the opportunity? And bro no vex where did u get the info frm? |
Odunayaw(m): 12:54pm On Mar 26 |
Mujtahida:Simon made good crosses first half. Osimhen's header that hit the bar. Inconsistent crosses yes, but he was'nt one direction The problem with our inverted winter style is what happens in the box. Players don't interpret space. No one is trying to drag players to free another, or one looking to position himself. Only Osimhen and Fisayo seems to know how to position themselves around the box. Fisayo's goal against SA and Victor's own yesterday. Class movement 3 Likes 1 Share |

Goke7:Oh, you're yet to realize none of our midfielders sabi shoot ball? Apart from Iwobi, none of them: Onyeka, Ndidi Onyedika, Aribo, none of them sabi shoot outside 18yrd box. Gone are the days of Nsofor & Etebo ![]() A whole box to box CDM cannot beat a player one-on-one, always ing side ways to Simon Moses who also messed up so many chances! Washed bunch of players. They are " let me play and go back to my business". |
Goke7: 12:57pm On Mar 26 |
Mujtahida: This is too early bruv, though I felt he committed too many men forward especially in the first half as a better opposition in counter attack would have hurt us. This a coach with an attacking philosophy which is what most Nigerians want, defensively he may not be top notch and that’s where our experienced players should come in to help the team. |
elyte89: 12:57pm On Mar 26 |

elyte89:Nooo. They should not deduct it. I don't want South Africa to be "robbed". They deserve it. When a team gets to the point where home or away does not matter, you know you have a good team. That's where SA is now. For us in Nigeria, we aren't sure anymore. Home oo, dem fit wipe us, away oo, the same thing. Let SA go. I wish them all the best. I don go collect all the sacrifice I offered the gods. I don untie afobear wey I wanted to offer the gods yesterday. The werey run 6 Likes 1 Share |
