As someone mentioned we need to hold the ball a bit longer, we just launching but our passing on the counter has been either poor or ineffectual.

He's poor
You guys are funny. You people couldn’t wait for him to come back after the SA game because Aina was ineffective on the left. By the was Moses was poor against SA.

Typical wishy washy fans for you.

We're playing too nervous for purpose. No rhythm - pushing with hands fouls - need to relax & play

Need to hold the ball better

Liverpool, European Champions 2005.

We watched this very boring video, 500 times, of Sacchi doing defensive drills, using sticks and without the ball, with Maldini, Baresi and Albertini. We used to think before then that if the other players are better, you have to lose. After that we learned anything is possible – you can beat better teams by using tactics." Jurgen Klopp

This is as hostile as it gets for a final. Referee is questionable, with a baying hostile crowd. The boys will earn this cup today. No handouts

You all remember we are playing against a host nation with the whole stadium making an extra man ...

Pesa's game plan needs Moses Adingra will eventually burn Aina once or twice - the boy is that good. And Chukwueze will not be there to help him.

Nigeria are playing like they want to be gifted the title. They aren't playing like they want to earn it.
Buhari, whose two terms thankfully ground to a constitutional halt in May. (One thing both democracies have going for them is that their leaders, however bad, have only two terms to swing the wrecking ball.) Under Buhari, growth per head also plunged to 0. An economic agenda drawn from the dusty pages of a 1970s protectionist handbook failed to do the trick. Despite Buhari’s promise to tame terrorism and criminality, violence flourished. Despite his reputation for probity, corruption swirled. FT
