[Scipio Africanus]

For real! Salah! Pass now!!!

[airwolex]

When El Neny is bossing ypur midfield, you know you are in trouble

[airwolex]

Haller is mia

[gochino]

What a game! Finally seeing the Liverpool Salah

[theDunamis]

Somebody should sit Moses Simon down and have him watch this match over and over till he understands the difference between needing to beat your man 1v1 and beating the same man (and probably the defense) with a quick through pass.

[airwolex]

Salah is tormenting them now

[txj]

that should be a yellow card on Die

[airwolex]

Men, the Ivorian coach being sonned. Egypts tactics are spot on.

[vancity eagle]

CIV coach needs to react. Do not pull a Rohr/Egu

Nigerian players need to learn how to allow the ball do the talking. They do tooo much runing with the ball. We need more players like Nwakali and Mikel, just le the ball do the talking.

Serie die is such a poor player

Simon Moses is not intelligent enough to know these basics unfortunately, and at 26 I doubt he ever will... I'm still holding out my hopes till I see what the likes of Lookman and Amoo can bring to this team, and we definitely need Samuel Kalu back to fitness cause he's one of our very cerebral wingers that I rate. Ultimately we need to ditch the wing play and focus more on quick build up plays through the middle

Exactly. Many moons ago, Nacho used to also do this intelligently. But no idea what has gone or is going wrong now.

[vancity eagle]

Haller is just too slow

[txj]

what a defensive play from Hegazi

[metalalloy]

This haller sef, be aware of what’s going on now!
