Our problem was confidence

Post by charlie »

It wasnt the coach as some said, or our tactical formation, or squad selection, or any of that stuff.
It was all mental.

Once Musa scored that first goal, you could see a cloud of tension evaporate visibly from the players. They started playing with quick accurate passing, and we started taking real shots on targets.

With 3pts in the bag now, that 4-2 win against Argentina a few months ago is a true blessing. This team knows they can beat Argentina, and Argentina are as vulnerable as they have ever been.

Advantage Nigeria.
