Germany vs Spain?
The football on display was just ridiculous.

Re: Germany vs Spain?
This two teams very good but I think SE will handle them along with Brazil and Argentina .
This world cup might go to teams that has not won it before.

Re: Germany vs Spain?
I was thinking the same...those guys are on another level. The balling was too much. Iniesta quite simply is the best passer of the ball right now.

Re: Germany vs Spain?
All of you are funny. Argentina and Poland were also slapping people around and playing sexy until they met our stiffling machine. Look at what Argies did to Italy yesterday? How come they couldnt do it to us??
I like how Nigerians think looking down on their own team makes them humble or cautious. No it doesnt. it just means you are looking down on your own team.
I know we have significant weaknesses, and Rohr said it yesterday. But like I have been saying for months... I know my team very well. Individually, we arent that great, frankly. But bring us together as one unit and we are outrageously difficult to beat. Teams will pass pass pass pass pass pass and end up losing against us. I have seen something that I have never seen in a nigerian team before... organization... the kind that makes a team play for 2 days straight and they cant penetrate.

Re: Germany vs Spain?
Best game of the day, ...And to think both teams are still working on jelling?
Kajifu is right though. If the SE don't aspire to beat these type of teams, how can we
claim to be competing?

Spain, Brazil, Argentina may be a big problem but Germany has got problems in the WC against African opposition(correction, North African mainly ).oloye wrote: Kajifu, have you been drinking again?
Germany against Morocco in 1970 ended 2-1, after Morocco led till halftime.
Germany vs Tunisia ended 0-0 in 1978.
Germany lost 1-2 to Algeria in 1982.
Germany won Morocco in extra-time 1-0 in 1986.
Against both Ghana and Algeria in 2018 was the odd goal again, only Cameroun that I can remember(hope am right) that lost 0-2 to germany.
I am not that scared of Germany, France or England...........................Brazil, Spain, Argentina kind of have a style that trouble us, that doesn't mean that they are unbeatable.

Re: Germany vs Spain?
Are "Old folks on CE" going to play at the world cup? The fans are absolutely irrelevant as to how the games go. I have listened to Rohr's interview and his words were pretty much "we were lucky" and we didnt play well. I didnt criticize his words because I know what he is doing. You even noticed that during the post match interview, every time Ekong said "they had chances" "we need to improve." He either prefixed it with "the coach said we were lucky" or he pointed at Rohr as he spoke. Rohr is clearly trying to keep their feet on the ground.zee wrote:Old folks on CE are 'humble' 'cos we knew how our arrogance before our match against Denmark in 1998 paid off on the pitch.danfo driver wrote:All of you are funny.

We are simply talking about that game. So there is no need to give this legs.
Second you like to pull the age card. Do you understand that ageing is a natural part of life? And it ain't as if you are a spring chicken either. You are close to 40 if not over it just like many of us here.

This is what he has won with Germany:
1 FIFA World Cup (2014)
1 FIFA Confederations Cup (2017)
That is 2 trophies in 12 years. Bro, that is not what i call "has nothing to prove" and "what a coach he has been for them."
By the way, I agree that he is a very very good coach who was the brain behind the team when that useless coach, Klinsmann was pretending to be the coach.

you are the funny one. David can beat Goliath, but 99 times out of 100, Goliath WILL beat David. In fact, that was such an unusual occurrence that we are are still marveling about it centuries later. No one is saying they are not beatable. But no-one should be beating their chests in anticipation of Nigeria beating them.

They just play a similar type of football. I remember when people mocked us for stating that Keshi showed the world how to play a previously unplayable France in 2014. Both Germany and Spain will find the going difficult against non European opposition who play a different style of football. Folks that run at them and don't give up on balls. The edge both teams have will be in the goalkeeping department where even when you beat the field players you still have to get past 2 of the best Keepers in the world.
That being said, even Peru will give both Spain and Germany a run for their money in the WC. Likewise the African teams.
As for Naijaria, the teams I fear are the 'non-top echelon' teams... because of our tendency to look down on them. But when it comes to the so-called top teams, I don't fret one bit.
