Why does Nigeria think
That other teams will just lie down and they walk on them? And what's the obsession with immediate results?
Only two things in life are certain - death and taxes. But there is one other unpleasant certainty: criticism. No one escapes it entirely and often our careers, our emotional stability, even our happiness depends on how we react to it."By Benjamin Franklin"

It is the same reason why you see Naijarians outside in any endeavor have an arrogance about them. Even some of our Ghananese bredas and some Cameroonians have the same swagger.
The difference is the number that has it.

Re: Why does Nigeria think
We are still hung over from our 1994 euphoria of that perfect template of an ever-conquering, domineering, stylish and fearsome Nigerian team that MUST be respected simply because we're Nigeria... unfortunately we just ain't $#% anymore in football, we seem to be excelling in other sports especially in the diaspora like boxing, basketball, track & fields and other combat sports than soccer which is our #1 sport... the structure of our football right from the local grass-roots is utterly rubbish.

Re: Why does Nigeria think
Abeg go and rest. Going into the tournament we were not even confident. However after the group games we were entitled to think that we could get to the latter stages as we usually do. Did France not think they would get to the latter stages of the Euros before they lost to Switzerland? Does Cameroon not expect to get to the finals?

Re: Why does Nigeria think
People will never understand what it means to be a Nigerian.
We bow down to nobody. We want success!
Which is why Rohr does not fit our vibe. For us, EVERY SINGLE match is winnable. I don't care if Pele, Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Maradona, Garincha, Roberto Carlos, Oliver Kahn are on the same team! We go out there to win every single match, against every single opponent. We fear nothing!
Their father, who born dem?
hmmm I think my testosterone might be a little bit too high.

Buhari, whose two terms thankfully ground to a constitutional halt in May. (One thing both democracies have going for them is that their leaders, however bad, have only two terms to swing the wrecking ball.) Under Buhari, growth per head also plunged to 0. An economic agenda drawn from the dusty pages of a 1970s protectionist handbook failed to do the trick. Despite Buhari’s promise to tame terrorism and criminality, violence flourished. Despite his reputation for probity, corruption swirled. FT

Re: Why does Nigeria think
I tell you! I haven't seen any post by TFCO in about a year. As soon as we (Nigeria) lost to Tunisia, he came here to laugh.
Surprisingly, TFCO is laughing at a team, or country which made it out of the group stage, something; his team (Ghana) didn't do

Of course not. I am not saying we are delusional. I am saying we believe every match is winnable.visieC wrote: ↑Wed Jan 26, 2022 2:51 amNo team wins all the time.Tbite wrote: ↑Tue Jan 25, 2022 1:06 pm People will never understand what it means to be a Nigerian.

hmmm I think my testosterone might be a little bit too high.
but these are two different topics.
1) Every match is winnable (Matches are won or lost based on forced or unforced errors)
2) How we react when fatal flaws are made, i.e. unforced errors.
If we lose a match based on forced errors, I don't think we have a habit of being delusional. However, take the Tunisian match, when you look at what mistakes WE made, not what the Tunisians did RIGHT, I would say that we have a lot to be unhappy about.
I don't know if this comes across as arrogant, but I legitimately think we did more things wrong, than the Tunisians did right. That was our match to lose.
In fact if we played that game 10 times, I think we might win 8 times and Tunisia might win twice.

Agreed totally.
I understand your point.
Nigeria will go to Qatar.
