1-1 v EQ looking better?

[EMIR KONGI JAFFI JOFFA]

I swear this Afcon no be beans at all. The draw vs EQ is starting to look better by the day considering the extreme conditions the game was played in. These so called minnows have ganged up on the big teams and made a pact to fight to the finish. It’s borderline guerrilla warfare. BF needed a pk to escape MAU, Namibia bushwhacked Tunisia, CV refused to chop kenke, Cameroun hit road block and Angola almost finished Algeria. Senegal won after the Gambia went down to 10 men. CIV is the only team to win comfortably but I suspect playing at home helped a lot but they’re not out of the woods yet. There’s birds of prey searching for wounded elephants.

Sometimes to just have to talk it on the chin and fight another day. Folks, I don’t think we know what will happen in this Afcon. Imho, 1-1 is not a good result but it could have been worse. The main point is that we have to take a cue from the so minnows and fear nobody at all at all. Give no respect to nobody because Afcon no respect anybody.

[waka-man]

Better and better by the minute.
Even Senegal over Gambia, was Gambia with 10 men.
Them and CIV are the only two favorites that have done the business.
What a first round. African football no be joke.
Don’t be surprised if we have some minnows topping groups.
Imagine the party going on in Windhoek right now. Kai!

There’s a new slogan in Naija gone viral: ‘No ‘gree for anybody’
They should take a cue from their fellow youths back home.

Even the army and police no ‘gree for demsef.

Be very careful, Civ don't need a result tomorrow. Naija do. SE will be sitting ducks for counter attacks. I expect 3-1 to CIV.

Are you watching Afcon at all? CIV has 3 pts but if you think all they have to do is show up vs SE and EG you’ll be in for a shock. Both SE and EG can beat CIV. Fact.

Most host nations tend to struggle in their first game. While this has been a tournament of upsets, the draw against EG is not different from what we got served during one two WCQ games.

[vancity eagle]

Considering we played the early game.

No other "favorite" who failed to beat their "minnow" played in the early match.

From all the "favorites" who failed.

Ghana, Egypt, Tunisia, Algeria, Cameroon,

Nigeria easily looked the best of all those teams.

On top of that we had the warmest conditions AND the toughest opponent (going by results from last afcon)

When it is all said, SE did not play badly…Nwabili did not have a save to make…

If we took our chances, we would have won 3/4-1 easily

CIV game will really tell us where we stand

Glad everyone is waking up to reality.

Yes it will.

First competitive match against what I see as a top 30 team in the world.

We've played lots of lower opposition who sit back. This will be a totally different type of match.

that is why all our players have to give 110% when playing an African team, names like big countries or players don't matter in African football again.

I looked up EQ on the map, the map posted by Bigpokey on another thread. SE drew with the tiny oil nation next to Gabon, the exact EQ that asked to become part of Nigeria in the 70s.
There is not enough alcohol that would make that result look better.

No it is not looking better. Looking at the chances created, that game should have been won 3-1 or 4-1.

Go look up their AFCON Qualification record.

This is not the donkey ages any more. Football has evolved.

Forget qualifying.

The beat Algeria and tied against CIV and Mali at the last AFCON.

Some people do indeed think we are still in the stone ages.

Truth is though we still should have flogged them if only we could finish.

Don’t mind the Olodo. What does size of a country on a map have to do with how good they are?

Where did I mention the size of EQ?
Of course, the size of a country does not matter; It's a foregone conclusion that Cameroon is a better footballing nation than you. EQ have not upped their game as much as NGR has lowered theirs.

We’re lowering everything in Nigeria . We no gree for anybody at all.

[waka-man]

EQ no be joke O!
I’m in the stadium and you really get to see and enjoy their off the ball movement in a way you can’t onscreen. They could honestly win this group. In fact, kudos to the SE for limiting them to so few chances.
If we lose today, the best we can hope for is to qualify as 3rd place finishers.

[bushboy]

A 34yr old showing APOY how to finish chances. Na wa ooo!!

I said it in 2 other threads.

Osimehn is a disgrace. If we fail at this afcon, it will be on HIM.

Just like our missing Qatar World Cup was ON HIM.

This is a joke and I am sorry, but this is why this fanbase is collectively a loser! my word! Game that we watched with our own eye? A guinea that we should be smashing for fun and now our fans are giving the SE "kudos" for drawig against a team we should have smashed 5-1?!!

If we are 3rd or 4th in the group, it will be because our coach is poor, our fanbase are losers and our players are mentally weak.

EQG used their head to collect their draw, went on to smash Bissau, like a serious team and their plan will be to collect draw against CIV. Simple!
