CAF should never allow this travesty of a group to happen again. 3 of the last 4 African champions, and the highest ranked African team - all in the same dam* group!

Today was not encouraging.

These are dark times for Nigerian football.

And yet

I sense Nigeria will qualify for 2018 with surprising ease.
And all because of timing.

A new captain with nothing left to prove apart from his qualities as a leaders. Rio was a dry run. His performance today a warning shot. Mikel will drive this team on and act as an elder statesman throughout the qualifiers. :clap: :clap: :clap:

The emergence of a bona fide next generation. Nacho and Iwobi will provide that wonderful combination of outstanding talent, youthful fearlessness and experience of playing in the most demanding situations. Alongside them expect the emergence of one of Imoh, Success or Osimhen to provide Nigeria with the most talented squad on the continent. :clap: :clap:

A settled back four. Balogun and Ekong make up for what they lack in talent with discipline, athleticism and ruggedness. Not since Yobo and an in form okoronkwo over a decade ago have we had such a partnership in central defence. :clap: :clap: :clap:

Around this group, a set of full backs seem on the cusp, defensive midfielders are emerging to take the load off Mikel and the erratic talents of Moses, Musa and Ighalo remain established internationals capable of hurting the best teams in the world on their day. :clap: :clap: :clap:

In addition, Cameroun and Zambia are not strong teams. Algeria I sense are over-rated, never capable of winning in sub-Saharan Africa.

Watch Nigeria qualify for the 2018 World Cup with surprising ease.

Well done Waka man!
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.

I think Spain’s by far the best league.

In fairness Algeria didn't show up at the party and have been below par (1 point registered on the log). In respect of Cameroon, what have they done at the WC recently? On form, both teams would have struggled in any of the other groups.

KPOM! Cameroon might have been over extended after the Confederations Cup.
It's tough to play two big tournaments in a row and then play tough qualifiers.

They should have done what Germany did and sent fresh legs to the Confederations. The AFCON players needed a break.
FECAFOOT escalations of their problems didn't help either.

Zambia only showed up after their first two games by then Naija had already taken advantage.

Finally, AFCON seemed to have affected a lot of teams. So Naija's missing out on it, was a blessing in disguise.

The fact that Nigeria qualified with ease does not mean it was not a travesty of a group. Nigeria's group would be the equivalent of France, Spain, Germany, and Portugal being in the same WCQ group! :shock: If that happened and Portugal breezed through qualification with a game to spare, would you still say the group was "easy" just because France, Spain, and Germany underperformed?

It must be very hard for some people to give SE credit. Kai, poor guy, he has to keep coming up with excuses to justify his position. Before the Zambia game he predicted doom and gloom we'd FINALLY be playing a team that is on the ascendancy, surprised the guy is still talking after we booked our ticket.
