Re: Pitso Mosimane

Would he be a good fit for the SE? He knows the African game well and won a few CAF Champions League trophies. He also finished 3rd in the Club World Cup with Al-Ahly. What do you think? me i no sure about that one, if we had another team in our world-cup group i will send 1naija the uber driver to...

Re: They were overwhelmed by the occasion

They saved their worst game for the final. Anyway they did well. They partied too much after the semifinal win. :) They finally came across a team that figured them out. They had an easy path to the final. Had they met a team that could do the obvious to stop them, maybe they would have had time to...

Re: Ivory Coast Shouldn't have Won!

It is very difficult to beat a team twice in a tournament especially in a final. Factor in that it was a team that was reinforced by key players like Haller and Adingra. A host team. With a new home coach. A team that went through fire and came out stronger to reach the final, while their opponents ...

He was completely out of his depth. Even when Adingra was not breathing down his neck, he made the wrong decisions.

Not good enough. Key players are just not up to the task. A team is only as good as the weakest link.

Re: Nigeria vs South Africa (0-0) HT

These S. Africans are useless. Cape Verde would have scored two goals by now. The S. Africans will rue not scoring when Nigeria scores one goal and parks in front of goal even more. Anyway, these are the least generous defenses so expect a 1-0 score line or penalties. Hopefully, one team will get ti...

Re: Kudos to CAF Presidet, Dr. Patrice Motsepe

Expanding the AFCON to enable East African countries to qualify has been a masterstroke. East African countries put up a good fight in the group stage to try to prove they belong in the tournament. This made the tournament entertaining eventhough they were quickly put in their place by West African...

Simply make it an easy choice for the best to come to your land. How many players has Africa (read Nigeria) lost to other countries? England, France, e.t.c take their pick of the best, then leave the rest for you. Reverse the trend and have Europe’s best fighting to migrate to Nigeria. I remember th...

Re: Cape Verde vs South Africa (0-0) PK SA wins 2-1

Cape Verde are woeful at penalties. Tame shots, No variance to their run to the ball. Poor placement. I don’t think they prepared for them and had no pena street smarts either. The last guy was even crying before taking it. Beb should not have taken the first one because he made some poor judgement ...
