Re: Gift Orban

Nice goal. https://streamin.me/v/d22aa087 Wow we must have missed about 5 breakaways like this one at the afcon so far. The Moffi own today way the latest in a growing list. Moffi missed? He should have squared to his wide open on rushing teammate before he was brought down. He didn't need to squar...

Re: So We Meet Again! CIV - Nigeria Final.

History doesn't exactly repeat itself, but it sure rhymes. This feels a lot like 2013 meeting Burkina Faso from the group stages and in the final once again. Hopefully the outcome is the same.

The English are known not to be mentally tough enough in penalty kicks. Paso was scrambling to sub out as many English men as possible. :taunt:

Re: So good players exist in NPFL?

Nwabali left the NPFL in 2022. He was here all this while but no one looked his way. Now a year after going to SA, we now discover him. Okay oo Nwabili made his SE debut while still in the NPFL in 2021 (vs Mexico)… He still kept getting overlooked even when we suffered through a goalkeeping crisis ...

Re: Nwabali

It was a cagey game and could have gone either way. South Africa just seemed more industrious and seemed to carve out more chances...

Re: From a DISALLOWED GOAL to a PENALTY

I was surely not celebrating. Saw there was a potential offside on Osimhen and the penalty VAR potentially. It was pretty annoying watching the bench come celebrate like there was no tomorrow. With VAR these days, the time I jump up for joy is 5 full minutes after play has continued following a goal...

Re: NWABALI being mentioned in high corridors…

I think that ball would have been ruled offside by VAR had it gone in. Impossible to tell from the camera angle in the clip above. Looks very very close indeed. Either way I am thanking our stars for the qualities of Nwabali there. He had initially come out to catch the cross. Seeing that it was a ...

Those two will be on sabbatical if SE win this cup. They've been gradually fading as we have progressed. Could be a long time for they and the Ghanaians to wait for the next SE misstep.

We are in the same world cup group as RSA and have always had the psychological edge on them so this is a game we absolutely have to win in order to retain that edge. Going by what I saw RSA do against Cape Verde today, we should win this game. 2-0 Nigeria The days of SE having the psychological ed...

Re: Nigeria v South Africa Loading

No goalkeeper saves PKs. Players miss PKs. Let's stop the hype. If you play it well, you will score it. Simple. Good one. Williams the goalie is in top form this tournament. However the Cape Verdean penalties were quite poor. If you've already picked one side of the goal, then at least aim for the ...

Re: SE and Foreign Born Players

It's called globalization. We never see natin. In 3 generations, u go begin see blond haired English boys with "Ajayi" as their last name playing for the SE. If Nigeria develops, then the NPFL will be a destination league for even European players.
