Re: Our Osimhen vs Barcelona (1-1) and he scores

the power , the skill and the finish . Worldclass. First game for Napoli in 2024 and he score I've never seen the term "worldclass" so abused. So that was a worldclass goal in your eyes? Really? OK. O boy, he is undisputably one of the top 3 strikers in the World. Learn to live with it, o...

Re: Our Osimhen vs Barcelona (1-1) and he scores

This is the same guy that couldn't score for Nigeria. Why is that? It is comments like this that make people sometimes want to ignore you. He had 4 goals called back in AFCON on hairline decisions. Two against GB, one against Angola and one against South Africa. Victor was massive in AFCON and was ...

Re: RIP: Kayode Tijani

Sad.

Met him a few times at an SE training and at team hotels.

I thought he was much younger than 55, maybe in his early 40's

May God grant his family and loved ones grace and strength.

Re: Ivory Coast will win

They are a better team than when they met the SE in the first round, with Adingra and Haller now back from injury and fully integrated in the side.' These two and Frank Kessie are top quality and the danger men of the side, much more so than Seko Fofana. Having said that, the Super Eagles are the be...

Re: Nwakali and That Free Kick - Echoes of Rufai 98

I think we all can agree that Nwakali is the man . No argument there . However that almost last minute freekick he parried right into a South Afrcan players path brought back some Painful memories of Rufai against Denmark 98 and his repeated failures to parry away . Thankfully the south african boo...

Re: So good players exist in NPFL?

Okay oo Nwabili made his SE debut while still in the NPFL in 2021 (vs Mexico)… He still kept getting overlooked even when we suffered through a goalkeeping crisis ...

Re: NOT DISCUSSED JUST YET: Key aspect of Nwabali's game....

Nwabali really has shown something that we have yet to see from Super Eagles goalies in history. I mean in history. He sweeps efficiently behind the defense. It comes with risks but he has not failed as of yet. He positions himself cleverly behind the defensive line to sniff out and snuff out any d...

Welcome to Nigeria vs. Anyteam we consider a small team. :veryangry:
Starts with the change in formation.

They should revert to status quo in the 2nd half.

Osayi needs to go off, and Zaidu on.
