2019 AFCON final bracket

[Synopsis]

[Tobi17]

Kai even if we manage beat Cameroon, we will most likely have Egypt waiting for us , now I see why we really fuccked up by losing to Madagascar, we could have dodged the big teams... only Nigeria can have it so damn easy, yet make it look needlessly hard. God help us but I'm seriously worried about our chances now.

It dosent matter. In order to be the best, you have to beat the best. At the end of the day, it’s only going to be 1 winner

[bushboy]

If not Egypt, it will be Morocco or Senegal. When you get to the last 8, its nothing but the best. You can't expect to win a trophy any other way.

[bushboy]

I was wrong o! It would have been Ghana or Tunisia! Chei!! We really mess up.

[Odas]

We are already in HOT Pepper-soup as it is, but anything can happen. Let's keep our fingers crossed and see what happens.

Whatever we do, let's not OVER-LOOK the immediate work at hand and that is 'Cameroon.' Denmark shouldn't repeat itself.

Right Reverend Odas,

HOT Pepper-soup is the best, so u are in a good place.

[Goalgetter]

Watch DR Congo eat that Madagascar team for lunch. DR. Will go far.

You all should calm down! I doubt Cameroon and Egypt throwing parties at the prospect of meeting Nigeria. I maintain, we have the best team in this tournament. We just need to eliminate mistakes and not even Egypt can beat us!!

[EMIR KONGI JAFFI JOFFA]

What makes mugus think Egypt will beat us? Is the players on the field or the fans in the stands?

[kalani JR]

We aren't winning this, also the 24 team format is bullshit.

The problem is you are hoping against all hope. This team is getting worse with every game, but we can hope they show something special on Saturday.

[joao]

If we overcome the odds by the doubters and win this tourney, the naysayers will crowd this space.
They will obnoxiously open threads to celebrate the insignificant and that which never occurred, and
claim they knew it all along.
Go Super Eagles!!!

Team can spring a few surprises but they will have to work for it as they are not a scoring machine.

Why do you think Cameroon or Egypt are better than us? Is it because of their spectacular performance in this tournament? Do they have better quality players at every position than we do? What exactly is the basis of your conclusion? We have better midfield and defence than both teams. Our only problem so far has been scoring. But neither Cameroon nor Egypt has set the tournament on fire either. The only way we lose either game is if we make silly mistakes like we did against Madagascar. This is not hoping against hope, this is the reality!

[okuns]

Mali has been impressive to me; I think they will go far. SE, on the other hand, do not have enough thrust to pressurize opposing defenses. We barely shoot on target, very frustrating to watch.

I won't be surprised if your prediction turns out correct. Teams play EXCEPTIONALLY harder and very well when playing against Nigeria, but opens their nyash when playing other opponents

Bigpokey24 - will be one of them

[Zelex]

The SE players need to take it up a notch. I was pretty confident prior to the Madagascar result (I know one result shouldn't completely alter ones views). It wasn't even about the result, the 2-0 win flattered Madagascar. 7/10 times that performance would have led to a 0-0 game. The major concern I have is Rohr's tactical approach, unbelievable how he set the team up in that game. He needs to do much better if we are to have serious challenge. I don't think the SE should be scared of any team.

i will tell you this the SE won't beat Cameroon . The team isn't good. They cannot score. All the other 15 teams left, I doubt the SE can even defeat any of them( we are fundamentally poor when it comes to attacking in the final 3rd.. ) don't yall notice the similarities between this team and the AFCON 2008 squad?. They both cannot score, they both were handled by German managers. lost 1-0 to CIV, tied Mali and scraped a win vs Benin... and lost to 10 men ghana..... you people are just using your feelings and confused emotions.

we do not need rohr or betty coaching the SE..

Isn't it crazy how few shots our strikers have in a game, talk less of shots on target...

That had to be the most depressing team, I had ever watched. I don't think this squad is that bad. I agree with you, I wouldn't be shocked if Nigeria are knocked out by Cameroon this Saturday but at the same time I wouldn't be surprised if they made it to the final (scraping each game).

Whatever you are smoking cannot be legal.
