True dat. But you need to score to win. Something that they haven't improved on since last WC.

Men!!! There was no any form of respect for Portugal , unlike Nigeria that played like they were scared of messi

[ohenhen1]

They are athletic, but they don't have the extra stuff that differentiate winners from losers.

[Tunde84]

Much better defending...

[Man Ataye]

Can't believe those who want to downplay this performance by CIV. They played very well and have delivered the better performance by an African side so far(even though they didn't win). Football nowadays is about not taking an early goal trying to settle in the game and hope to capitalize on set plays. Nigeria should have tightened their butts in the opening 30 minutes and failed to do that. Ivory coast created enough chances and didn't make the same defensive mistakes we are accustomed to you can't ask more than that.

True talk but Portugal ain't exactly Argentina if you know what I mean. The game today was IC's for the taking.
