Nigeria vs South Africa (1-1) FT

[COOKING SPOON]

I pray for the day that Nigeria stops allowing the class of 1994 influence our football.

So many players out of position.

Heaven save us

If that lineup is true, then God help Nigeria.

While I like the midfield the forward line is horrific.

Slow #$% Onuachu and Iheanacho. Lookman sef ain't the fastest. Nacho is not a winger and Onuachu is not a footballer.

[aruako1]

Onuachu?!!!

Makes no sense

I concur with regards to Iheanacho and Onuachu. I pray they both prove the doubters like me wrong, or else Finidi will get a well deserved tongue lashing if not worse.

I don't think this is an official lineup yet. Came from "feelers" in Camp. Hopefully it's Finidi trying to cause confusion in the opposition. Ndidi in central defence puts another spotlight on Ekong being absent. I still don't know why. Does anyone know?

What is Finidi Smoking

He might see a mismatch he wants to take advantage of with Onuachu, who is either hit or miss.

Most of us will start Moffi and Boniface over Onuachu and Kele, but the coach has chosen his lineup, and it is good enough to beat Bafan in my opinion.

Moffi and Boniface will likely come in the 2nd hald to either put more pressure, or help turn things around as needed.

Go Finidi, Go SE!

[OJI]

If that lineup is true, talk about an inspired decision! Novel approaches to scoring being set up for a South African team expected to play a low block. Freekicks, crosses, corner kicks. Our conversion rate from open, albeit defensive, football has been low. Unheralded tactics for a new Nigerian team set up for an attacking showcase.

South Africa will not low block.

They will attack us and we need to be able to hit them on the counter.

Good luck with slow Onuachu and Nacho.

Thos team is very unbalanced.

So you wan spend your time complaining instead of supporting the team? For your sanity I hope you spend your time enjoying the game and support the team.

[ohenhen1]

Onauchu has been playing well and he is a mismatch on crosses into the box. You also have Moffi and Boniface that can come in in the 2nd half.

He can complain and also support the team. He has the right to complain and he is not being abusive. We all want the SE to win but the concerns are valid

Westerhof 442 set up from 1994?

[ohenhen1]

The fans need to make it a home field advantage.

[bushboy]

I like it except for Kelechi.

Paul is in fine form and scoring for fun in Turkey. If he doesn't deliver by the 50th minute, Boniface will take over.

Kelechi is NOT a winger tho. But I don't think we have many options in that area due to injuries.

Not only slow, but a division 2 benchwarmer

[Scipio Africanus]

I have a good feeling about this game. I see a 3-0 or 3-1 win for us.
