In my honest opinion, of the last three teams. This one, has the least individually talented players.

Our keeper is piss-poor at PK's...The Guinea keeper came close to saving several kicks...our keeper just kept avoiding the ball...

Obvious from the first game against Tanzania, he's scared of PK's...

We have lost the battle but the war lies ahead. The team needs a few tweaks but will get better

Once you started getting into the double-digits on PKs someone is bound to miss...
And as our GK never looked in danger of saving any of their kicks, I was hoping it would be one of theirs.

hmmm ... very ironic. It is easier to win the World Cup (U17 - 5 times) than win the Africa Cup (U17 - 2 times). Wonder why?

That was a different GK...
But this one didn’t look like he would save any (unlike our MRI-disqualified GK at the WAFU B qualifiers).

MRI killed Naija. In the days of Ugbade, Atere, Osondu and okoro when we used to play Men vs Boys, the game would have ended in the 1st 20 minutes :woot: :woot:

For starters, the officiating at the WC is not this poor...
If the Guineans play as they did today, they will not finish any game with 11 players.

It wasn’t Kalum Stars, but Hafia...
Rangers destroyed Kalum Stars in Rangers’ first-ever continental campaign.

Except that we have won multiple tourneys since MRI testing was instituted...
We have been brainwashed by the Premier League that it's the best in the world. Nonsense. It's the best brand
Roy Keane: ITV 02/25/14

He says that we are currently "brainwashed" into believing that the Premier League is the best competition in the world, and that we are now a long way off dominating the Champions League again.
Gary Neville: Mirror: 12/23/14

I think Spain’s by far the best league.

I don't usually blame GK's for penalty shoot-out losses, but GK's play critical roles, however...

The Guinea keeper must have put some doubts in several players minds when he started guessing the direction of our PK's...

Our GK, in contrast, probably added to the Guinea PK-takers' confidence...
