Nigeria 0 Uganda 0 Second FT

What a shiit show. Rohr can't organize an attack.

The level of ignorance on CE has taken a serious uplift recently...smdh...

So easy to label things as ignorant... did we not stuggle to string passes togetherin the last third today and against South Africa on Saturday?

And it is a damn shame, that is if you ask me...smh

Game over.
God, that was painful watching.
If the opposition had been a standard european team with a top class ref, Uganda would have had at least 2 players sent off, especially that highly indisciplined No 8 Aucho who apparently plays for Churchill Brothers in India. Uganda plays football that no one will want to pay to watch, with agricultural tackling that was outlawed as far as 1990 and no finesse. Their raw brutish tackles were similar to those of Cameroon in 1990. The established teams in Africa (and the rest of the world) no longer play this way and until Uganda is able to improve on their basic technique, I think they should be kept away from public glare. Nigeria gained nothing from this match and we must be thankful that our players did not suffer serious injuries.

Nuff said.

Meanwhile, SA already 1-0 down. Apparently a bank called Santander scored the goal

[niyi]

The Eagles are well organized in defense but we lack a plan past that point. Our midfield is 0 and our attacking players depend on individual flourishes to get the few goals we get.

They will chop multiple reds at Afcon if they play like that. If it was the world cup, that elbow would have been reviewed by VAR.

[Goldleaf]

Uganda apart from being ultra-defensive first and foremost, they were very very crude in their tackles. In a real game they probably would have picked up a couple of red cards. They play ugly football.

Uganda played football that was popular back in the days of Oloye when legs were broken with ease. Too ugly.

SA playing ok. They had a bad give away in their half that led to the Paraguayan goal.

Maybe a red in the latter stages of the game. They defended well though and deserved the draw.

We need to start converting headers from crosses and dead balls. There were enough opportunities from this, but we barely tested the keeper. Countries like England routinely win matches based on this.

Uganda may have a better record in Nigeria, than Nigeria!

[Rawlings]

Gone are the days Wey naija get players with legs like Iroko tree. Dem fo don teach these Ugandans some lesson. Now we get European softies as players. Mshhhheeeww

The friendly has exposed a lot of things.
1. Good games for the youngsters.
2. We have a problem at LB and RB
3. We lack depth in midfield. We need Mikel and Ndidi and Onazi back ASAP.

Yes but you need to find back up for better players if you want to compete to win tournaments,Mikel and especially Onazi will not be at the level they where a few years ago and of cause they will soon announce their retirement and Ndidi is great but he can’t play every game.

[pajimoh]

Always look for the good even in bad situation. They got physical with us and we took it. We might meet physical teams.

As for the Ugandans, if they play like that in tournament settings they won't finish with 11

Nobody plays football like that anymore. Just raw athleticism with tough tackles. Don't expect great things, bro. Football has moved on. These days, you only need a slight touch against the great players to get a yellow. Do it again and you get a red. Once 5 or 6 are on yellow, you become scared to tackle and the other team get a field day to score 5 or 6. I will like to see a test game between Uganda and Barcelona to prove my point. Suarez alone will get 3 or 4 sent off!

[wale1974]

Good test for Nigeria. It is a work in progress. We have to call up Mikel, Ndidi, Onazi for Seychelles..

We need to try new players in the middle.

[Kabalega]

Kabalega your "team" is full of pieces of $#%..

Just beat the pieces of $#%!, if you can....

[wale1974]

What a shiit show. Rohr can't organize an attack.

Oh boy.............Here we go

[Tobi17]

Those Ugandans are some pretty low IQ players, football set in the stone age... God forbid we get to see embarrassing displays in the world cup against European and South American teams... They will laugh at us and call Africans barbarians.

[wale1974]

This got to be the worst game I have seen in a while!

Now that's a lie

Santander is a good player.
