Will we win all the time? On to the next game

[marutimon]

We need to beat Cote d'Ivoire now. Preferably by at least 2 goals (then no matter the score in the last game Nigeria are through to the semis).

Nigeria are now likely 2nd in the group, while Ghana will likely win the other group. So a Ghana - Nigeria semifinal likely.

[Odas]

Already qualified for the U17 African Cup:
Tanzania (host)

2 to come from Senegal / Mali / Guinea / etc. (West Africa)

Thus what is our chance of making it to the big dance after losing this game? Any chance at all, or it's over for us?

[marutimon]

Win last game by two goals and we are through.
Win by a goal and we are still likely through.

Your believes are feelings bro.

Luckily for us, facts are facts.

We came 4th in 2015 and failed to qualify for the 2011 and 2017 championships. Performance has always been all over the place...

Performance has never been all over the place...We won 5 world championships and qualified for almost all editions of the U-17 tournament.......We are as consistent as they come.

However, i maintain the the MRI screening has gotten better and more stringent in the last edition and this current one. Not only is FIFA requiring the players be tested at the confederation level, they are managing the test process themselves and not leaving it up to the confederations like before. This is why you see the Beninese team totally disqualified.

Remember we lost 26 players after FIFA/CAF sent an Egyptian Doctor to come test players in Nigeria before the Qualification game. So those MRI related disqualifications have had an impact on us in 2016 and now in 2018. previously when we lost it was just because the team sucked.

When they get to the FIFA tournament proper they now test 2 players per team after every game. They pick them at random and only those who have played in the game. In the past they only picked players at random and not those that necessarily played the game.

Its funny though, you waited till after the results of this game vs CIV and then you came rushing back to dispute my observations. I could do the same and wait till the lose again and then say AH HHHHAAAAA !!!!

But i dont play like that...I hope they qualify because i want to see these kids in the next U17 World cup !!

What you need to know is that FIFA has been testing players since 2003, funny enough, they do not publish the reports of the screenings. So a lot of players have been failing the test for a long time even till the last Edition in India and FIFA never published their findings. They did admit though that at least 35% of the players fail the test.


That is 24 teams X 23 players = 552 players---- 35% = Which is a staggering 193 players fail from all over the world.
