Re: Nigeria vs Egypt Live! 1-0
Simon needs to do better. Needs to slow down a little to ensure better end product...Good game though...

We watched this very boring video, 500 times, of Sacchi doing defensive drills, using sticks and without the ball, with Maldini, Baresi and Albertini. We used to think before then that if the other players are better, you have to lose. After that we learned anything is possible – you can beat better teams by using tactics." Jurgen Klopp

and no single yellow card in the game. The players played a clean game. Very professional on both sides

Re: Nigeria vs Egypt 1-0
My only disappointment today was Chukwueze. Hope he starts the next match and Egu doesn't replace him with Ejuke.

Difficult to train that out of him now. Old habits die hard.

Re: Nigeria vs Egypt 1-0
Massive room for improvement in this team having successfully navigated the first game.
With those two towers in central midfield we should've severely punished Egypt on the counter, with more composed play...
Only team I've seen with comparable power so far is Cameroon.

Re: Nigeria vs Egypt 1-0
That was an excellent game from the SE. it was a tactically disciplined performance. This was no shaky performance in Rohr style. The lads played with experience and confidence. The entire team played very well.

Re: Nigeria vs Egypt 1-0
I thought he had a really good game, esp in first half. With better movement from Awoniyi, he would've been more impactful...

Re: Nigeria vs Egypt 1-0
Kudos to Eguavoen. He made timely substitutions to keep the pressure on Egypt as soon as he saw they weee getting into the game. Rhor never did that throughout his tenure.

Re: Nigeria vs Egypt 1-0
For me the key was Simon. When things were tight in the first half, he was the only one that could open the game. They had to make a lot of adjustments for him and that opened things for others. That is the best I have seen him play for us.

We were 'allowed' a lot of liberties by how Egypt opted to play. But I think we did not do enough in the final third to severely punish them as they deserved to...
As well as our wide players performed, it was based on overcoming in 1v1 situations and not the use of space and movement. I worry a deep seating team may present problems
