NIGERIA vs TUNISIA:WHAT'S YOUR PREDICTION???
Moderators: Moderator Team, phpBB2 - Administrators
Victory clouds all the concern that came before it. Had we lost the game against the Cameroon, but played exactly the same, would it have been a good performance?
Amidst the smoke blown from cigars and fireworks as we dance and celebrate our victory, scribbled on a goal post reads a message, louder than any firework or explosive 'In the midst of their boast and bellowing, they killed their hope'.
Need we walk through the fields of history to support my quote? In the thick of their celebration, the Trojan horse rolled upto the gates of their oppressors.
Nigeria has no-one to fear but themselves. For before their studs slide across each blade of grass, each players fate is decided by his conscience. 'Its only Tunisia', 'We beat Cameroon, so we'll beat them no problem', optimisim over over-confidence?, whilst we struggle to define such thoughts, such thoughts define our performance. If one believes victory is assured over 90minutes, he may feel he needn't meet his potential on the pitch, for he has won already.
Let us not assume our performance today will be a reflection of yesterdays, rather, recognise thet the efficiency and effort that has brought us here, cannot be made redundant at any stage.
