We beat them in 1989, 2001, 2008 and 2015. At all youth levels. The only US soccer team that should be beating Nigeria is their Shemale(female) team. We have no business losing to America at the mens game. This loss feels like the loss we suffered against South Africa in Uyo. Rubbish team.
are joking mate??
That USA team is better than any African team. USA football has some impressive players. The players (and the league) have improved hugely in the last few years and will only get better. We are seeing a lot more young players being signed up at European clubs and that is testament to the gains the MLS has made in the last few years.
so losing to THIS USA team was no disgrace. It was the way we played that was so disappointing

Re: Nigeria has easier path to qualify for the second round
Bros .. doing GraGra is not the same as making argument. Fact is we have lost to the US pretty much everytime we have played them at the senior level even with the likes of Okocha on the field (US CUP 95)so I am a little perplexed as to where all this your bravado is coming frombret- hart wrote:kalani JR wrote:USA is just as good as any African team, they could easily make semi finals in the AFCON should they play in it.

Yes. When they come across rubbish teams like Kenya,Zimbabwe, Tunisia, Madagascar etc. But I expect the likes of Nigeria, Senegal, Ghana, Cameroon IVC to wipe the floor with them and any other CONCACRAP country. That ought to be the expectation.

Re: Nigeria has easier path to qualify for the second round
this Mali side is very good. true story I was looking at the lineups on livescore and there were four players in a row that had what could be Malian last names, I was confused for a moment.

Beat us 2x in useless friendlies. The US cup in 1995 was US vs JJ and 11 hey yous. 2014 was a pre WC friendly that no one cares about. Let them beat us at a competitive game at seniour level then we can talk. They lost to TnT and failed to qualify for the 2018 WC.Let that sink in. We have 0 buisness losing to them. The same shame i felt losing to South Africa is the same shame i felt on monday.

Aigbogun should be sacked before he boards the plane. The lack of effort was unacceptable on Monday. If we are going to lose, we should go down swinging.

Re: Nigeria has easier path to qualify for the second round
Looks like Nigeria made it through. As of now they are the second best third place team with only two other games left to play. At the very least they'll be the fourth best third place team which is good enough to progress.

Re: Nigeria has easier path to qualify for the second round
BAP that team was not our 1st team back at all. Where was Ike Shoronmu? Taribo? Uche Okechukwu, Babayaro/Iroha, Oliseh, Amunike,Finidi, Amokachi, Kanu? Had these guys played, we would have embarrassed USA on the day. Also don't forget at that time we hardly took these "friendly tournaments" seriously.

Re: Nigeria has easier path to qualify for the second round
Well Kanu, Babayaro and West were probably still in their teens at the time of that game , Iroha was in the game look the list again.an Rufai was still our number one goalie. Shorunmu adidnt take control until a few years later.bret- hart wrote:BAP that team was not our 1st team back at all. Where was Ike Shoronmu? Taribo?
