It looked off to me. Before Iwobi spread the ball to Musa, Ighalo the goalscorer was already in an offside positiongreen4life wrote:Nope. Not a chance.pajimoh wrote:Not complaining but was our first goal offside?

Musa was onside, Ighalo was not involved in play then so his position doesn't matter. Ighalo comes into play once Musa gets the ball. At that point he was behind the ball.
Not offside by any measure.

Re: LIBYA vs NIGERIA 2-3
Pajimoh, Ighalo was onside though it was a very marginal call. The Libyan defenders tried to play the offside trap, but got exposed once again like they did when Iwobi played that pass to Ighalo in the first leg.

Think he is saying Igalo could only have been offside or interfering with play if he was ahead of Musa once he received the Pass from Musa.pajimoh wrote:So Musa was onside and passed to Ighalo who was already offside and it's not offside?Ugbowo wrote:LOL.

Re: LIBYA vs NIGERIA 2-3
Dude, what are you on about? There is no confusion here, Ighalo was CLEARLY behind Musa at the point Musa kicked the ball. We even have the benefit of a level camera angle.pajimoh wrote:I thought he was but it could be the camera angle. I stopped and played it frame by frame and Ighalo looked off but I could be wrong

Re: LIBYA vs NIGERIA 2-3
I must say I didn't know about that rule.
So as long as you are behind the onside player (Musa), you are not offside?
Makes sense.
Based on our wrong interpretation of the rule, Ighalo was definitely offside, but it is NOT the right interpretation.

Buhari, whose two terms thankfully ground to a constitutional halt in May. (One thing both democracies have going for them is that their leaders, however bad, have only two terms to swing the wrecking ball.) Under Buhari, growth per head also plunged to 0. An economic agenda drawn from the dusty pages of a 1970s protectionist handbook failed to do the trick. Despite Buhari’s promise to tame terrorism and criminality, violence flourished. Despite his reputation for probity, corruption swirled. FT

Re: LIBYA vs NIGERIA 2-3
Has to do with where the ball is not where Musa is. As long as Iggy was behind or level with the ball before Musas pass then he’s on.Tbite wrote:I must say I didn't know about that rule.

Nigeria won both games, 7-2 on aggregate, and Ighalo scored 5 goals in 2 games. Yet Nigerian fans complain about the team and call for Ighalo to be dropped.

Guys did you notice that the jerseys had names of the players on it. For a qualifier that was very impressive. Hopefully we keep it up.

That way you can ensure subs in case of injury.
Never mind that the game could be lost (or won) with that sub...
It's always a good thing to save for the rainy day!
TbiteIt's an old school approach, one that makes a lot of sense.
But in today's game, clearly Etebo was tiring. He should have brought in help much earlier just to release some of the pressure in midfield.
The YeyeManThe chance that we will be punished when we are lacking in a department is much much higher than the likelihood of being punished due to an injury or red card.
The chance that we would have qualified for the 2nd round of the World Cup, by simply subbing off a tired and beaten Idowu is quite high!
We almost blew this opportunity today, once again due to subs! The result notwithstanding! The man has no excuses.
He's just a slow thinking coach. Being slow to think and process information isn't a philosophy.

Re: LIBYA vs NIGERIA 2-3
Nigerians called for Ighalo to be dropped before the games after 3 goals in 25 games and no goals in 10, which included the wc. Maybe Watford should not have sold him for not scoring after scoring so many goals for them previously?wiseone wrote:Nigeria won both games, 7-2 on aggregate, and Ighalo scored 5 goals in 2 games.

Chief relax, you justify your place in the team by doing what you're supposed to do. Ighalo did not do that for a long time. Now he's doing it. Scoring 590 goals in 2 games cannot change the fact he failed to score in so many games.
If you're pleased with non scoring strikers then we should have left our previous strike who quit the team there.
Nigerians, they behave others opinions are not valid. msshhhewww

If Iwobi had passed to Odion, he would have been offside. Iwobi passed to Musa (a beauty by the way) who cut back to Odion to score. Odion was not offside.pajimoh wrote:It looked off to me.

Re: LIBYA vs NIGERIA 2-3
Stop it at 57 seconds. That was why I called it. You could clearly see Ighalo was off before the ball was played. Musa was on. Ighalo never came back on side. The ball was passed to him to score. If the rule allows him to score from there because Iwobi did not initially pass to him, all good. I just wanted clarityCristao II wrote:If Iwobi had passed to Odion, he would have been offside.
