SE from the Point of View of Angola's Strengths and Weaknesses

Strengths 1. Team work - Hardly a notable player in club football but they've got some slick passing and quickfire counter attack. Their midfield is well oiled. I perceive we will have issues here if we continue with a 2-man central midfield. A team that has won 3 games on the bounce are no jokers....

In their last 16 AFCON appearances, Nigeria have reached the semi-finals 13 times. They have not failed to qualify for the quarter-final for over 20 years.

Astonishing. :shock:
I'd swap Egypt's record with ours over the same period.

Re: So Mamelodi Sundowns beat WC semifinalist

I don't have the stats but it seems SA always does fairly well against North Africa, compared to how we have fared better against South Africa. Even an SA coach was employed by a top Egyptian side. In 2019, SA surprisingly shocked Egypt at AFCON while we defeated SA in the next round. Even at club l...

Re: Cellular and His Wannabe Referees

Re: Without Nwabili we may have to change how we play

Our quick attacking comes from his distribution which allows Osimhen to win the 50/50 balls while Lookman tries to get the 2nd ball. This would be gone with Uzoho and with a goalie that is suspect on long range shots i would consider starting Yusuf as an extra body in midfield and play Alex as AM m...

Re: Lineup v Angola

Anybody have anything against using same team that beat Cameroun again? Same team for me. If Nwabili isn’t fit the Lekan Ojo should start.

Too long and too confusing a rule Law 11 Offside 1. Offside position It is not an offence to be in an offside position. A player is in an offside position if: any part of the head, body or feet is in the opponents’ half (excluding the halfway line) and any part of the head, body or feet is nearer to...

Cameroun's tactics
1. Wounjure Osimhen
2. Do same to Nwabali so that Uzoho can come and play for them

If Uzoho comes on, can't watch again
