Kaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaane

The drought is over.
2 of the finest indigenous coaches Nigeria ever had lost in a space of 4 days. Dear Lord, is this a sign that you are taking away from us what we failed to appreciate? I pray for forgiveness of our sins. I pray for the humility to recognize our wrongs and the humbleness and wisdom to right our ways.

England have to be careful here. No one plays "scavenger football" better than Croatia.

Well done Gareth Southgate. I am so happy for him. He was not fancied for the job but time and time again he shown he can handle the job. He has built a sold English team doing it right way.

So does this mean England has qualified for the Euros? I still don't understand this competition.

Croatia were playing so well. Organized and setting traps to counter on the break but just couldn’t wrap up the game. And England are just Stoke-Like in their ability to score via set pieces .... it’s crazy ... set plays which sometimes come down to delivery and effort and desire to get to the ball become the goal defining moments ... smh

We had no business losing to them. Still hurts as they capitalized on our inexperience.

Yea 3-2 at home after they lost 6-0 to Spain away. We could have ran these guys to the ground and gotten a better result but the bum we have as coach gave them too much respect because they have guys playing for Barca and Real Madrid. Thunda fire Rhor :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:
