Re: WCQs CAF Group C Watch
We can go at least joint top if we beat South Africa tonite
3 clear goals victory are needed to be solely on top by goals difference.

Same Zimbabwe that outplayed us under Pisseiro, and some clowns here.are in love with their useless massa cause he's European.
Re: WCQs CAF Group C Watch
Nigeria are lucky with the way the group has progressed so far. No one has pulled away at all or maintained consistent results. Two wins from two would put them in a very good position to qualify. We could so easily be in a situation where SE is going into the South Africa match 7 points adrift of the top spot. Just have to take care of our own business.

Re: WCQs CAF Group C Watch
It would have been better if Zimbabwe defeated SA and the Lesotho match end in a draw. But there is only 4 points between us and the 3 leaders with 18 points still to play for. But it’s a very slim chance.
And I don’t think Finidi is the right person to give us that slim chance. So we have to choose between keeping Finidi and hoping that he can build a good team for the next AFCON knowing that the World Cup race is over for us or go for broke and get in a very good coach who I would have about 9 months to prepare for the next World Cup qualifiers.

We still have to play Rwanda, Benin at home and Lesotho and SA away. If we had a good team, all of them are beatable but not with the current team and coach.

Re: WCQs CAF Group C Watch
There are indeed remarkable stories from these World Cup qualifiers. See also how Kwasi Appiah is working magic, thus far, with the Sudan. They lead the group just ahead of Senegal. having dropped points in just one drawn game out of four.

Re: WCQs CAF Group C Watch
Still so many games to play,just 4 played and 6 more to go.
Re: WCQs CAF Group C Watch
Is one or two teams that got qualify for each group?
Re: WCQs CAF Group C Watch
Top only.
The best 4 second placed teams (from 9 groups) goes into a playoff and the team that wins would play against a team from another zone for just one place.

Re: WCQs CAF Group C Watch
E don reach that stage!
Plan B selected (out of many plans, and naturally in descending order).
Apart from what Nigeria has to do (for now, win their next 2 matches), what combinations abi permutations would be needed for Rwanda, South Africa, and Benin to each lose at least 1 of their 2 upcoming qualifying matches?

Re: WCQs CAF Group C Watch
Don't hold your breath because indecisive NFF will wait till the 11th hour to make any real positive changes. This is the point where it's that tactical substitutions made by the Federation that will count and not the coach's. If we had a good NFF then it's not over. With those bozos repeating the way they have been acting, then no WC appearance ever for Osimhen & co surely.

Re: WCQs CAF Group C Watch
Relax, that was after 3/10 games. Lesotho is still ahead of Nigeria after 4 games though.

Re: WCQs CAF Group C Watch
Well, stranger things have happened in football so this shouldn't come as a shock, especially when you factor in the disgraceful and shoddy preparations by the NFF. There's no entitlement for being the "giant of Africa", you've got to do the talking on the pitch, and right now we're just not good enough.
