Re: SPORTS MINISTER RALLIES SUPPORT FOR IWOBI
Ok let's settle this once and for all. His Dad confirmed to a few of us here yesterday that Iwobi is not in any way "rattled" by these insults. He is not retiring from International football. I personally think the issue was more of the derailing of his social media. He had to take it down...

Re: The Irresponsible Sequence of Play That Could Have Ended Us
My brother, They were tired. That’s the simple reason. Minute 84 after sprinting for a counter, expecting them to sprint back is a tough ask. If you have played the sport, you’ll know when your body just can’t push anymore. Especially after sprinting. I can’t wait to rewatch games and analyze tactic...

Re: William Troost-Ekong -- Captain, my captain!
Also in the South Africa match. The speedy striker from South AFrica almost out ran Ekong who grabbed him and took a yellow card for the team, his nation I MAY HAVE TO LOOK AT THE TAPE AGAIN, BUT... ...it appeared it wasn't necessary to take the yellow because the SA player was speedy but not exact...

Re: NOT DISCUSSED JUST YET: Key aspect of Nwabali's game....
Besides the shootout heroics, Yesterday's performance was his best all through the competition.
His save in the first half was top top draw. He commands his box and he now speaks to his defenders more calmly instead of the screaming in the first game. He has grown into this tournament.

Re: Frank Onyeka
He has been fantastic….off the ball. Knows exactly when to step/press and when to hold. Something Yusuf has no clue. Very strong in the tackle and has grown into the role of sensing danger. Boy has been good. He’s just not good with the ball…especially passing/crossing. He’s serviceable driving and ...

Re: For the FINALS, how do we approach the formation/tactics?
It seems everyone is now critical about the 343 formation due to the high balls by the SA's that for once in the tournament gave us several uncomfortable moments...with the likes of Nacho and Moffi now tasting tournament action, should either of the two play alongside Osimhen in attack to give us m...

What is this Cybereagles becoming? 3-4-3 got you here. No goals conceded. YOU ABSOLUTELY had to continue it. Now SA came with a fantastic tactical plan and our wide forwards were not dropping into the second block on time. That got fixed after the first water break. His subs were very good except th...

Re: Peseiro v Iheanacho?.......Is there credence?
Only way Kelechi plays is if we are chasing a game and change formation/strategy.
I think the player himself recognizes this.
Everybody on the pitch is doing an IMMENSE job. The only person that needs a small talking to is Zaidu.

Re: Iwobi is Terrible
I came here to have constructive post match discussions and the first thing i see is this RUBBISH.
Do we have amateurs watching football here? Is it that ppl cannot understand a players role? Is this a JOKE??????

Re: Should Yusuf start v Cameroun?
If we play 3-4-3 he should start with Onyedika with Iwobi shifted to the right and Lookman on the left.
If we play 4-3-3 then definitely he starts.

Re: Victor Osimhen WAS THE MAN-OF-THE-MATCH!
He has an intimidating presence about him and he scares defenders for sure.
But my guy should be on 3 goals right now. Bassey was the MOM.
