Akor, Akpom, Nwabili, Ogbelu and Yusuf have reportedly been invited to fight for a shirt. I know its OWN but they do get it right often enough. If 50 players were listed it means pretty much every player that’s played in the SE over the last 2 yrs is on the list except these 5 players.

The source of the 5 new players report is owngoalnigeria, I'll take that with a pinch of salt if I were you...for a 55 man pre-AFCON shortlist, there will definitely be more than just 5 new players that will be called up.

"Dead rubber" tops the list.

Its origin is actually from the card game 'rubber bridge' where in a three-competition game one team wins once it scores 100 points or more. If that is done before completing the three competitions, the remaining one is said to be dead rubber.

is a term used in sporting parlance to describe a match in a series where the series result has already been decided by earlier matches. The dead rubber match therefore has no effect on the winner and loser of the series, other than the number of matches won and lost. The term is widely used in Davis Cup and Fed Cup tennis, as well as in international cricket and field hockey series.

Its origin is however probably from the card games, rubber bridge. For example, in Davis Cup series', each pair of competing countries play five matches (rubbers) where the winner is decided on a best-of-five basis. Where the result is known before the completion of the five matches (if one side wins three matches), the remaining match or matches are said to be dead-rubbers.

I don't think anyone said it originated from Nigeria.

Please see below. We were listing "Nigerian football parlance."

Still one of the funniest Nigerian football parlance of all time.

For instance, I could have said "do and undo." Which is used by Nigerians like "dead rubber," But it isn't of Nigerian origin.
