If Nigeria have to win a trophy why not do it against a better team? Ghana is toooooo overrated, and it shows in their game vs Burkina Faso.

Nigeria, CIV, Burkina Faso and Cape Verde are the only tactically sound teams in this competition. Ghana is a complete disgrace and so is the Tunisian ref. I wonder if something good can come out of Tunisia!!!

onitshaigbo: I'm tired of those Ghanaians who always think they're better than us, even though we are the Giant of Africa. Countries like Ghana prevent Africa from being more united. Nkrumah was a
greater leader but they exiled him, may God destroy Ghana.

wat's that? You're a perfect description of an I.B.E.C.I.L.E. In fact, you're foolishly F.O.O.L.I.S.H.

I started rooting for the Mukinababes after the besterd referee gave the Ghanians the penalty. The support increased with each attempt of the referee to frustrate the Stallions.

Besides,the Stallions played better,probably as a result of being used to the field.

Syenite: @ ihedioramma, Wrong! We beat them 3-0 in 2001 and 1-0 in AFCON 2006. I supported Burkina Faso cos i dnt want them (Ghana) to rub shoulders anywhere near us. Let them play a loser's final while we play for the title. I dnt care if Burkina beats us or not. Better to lose to Burkina than to lose to those loud and foul mouthed Ghanaians.

You are wrong on 2001 loss to Naija, cos there was no AFCON that year. Instead, in 2000, Naija lost to Ghana in penalty shoot out at the finals.

Nigeria has the brightest future of all African countries. Nigerians are the most entrepreneurial and intellectual of all Africans. Who in Africa dares to fvck with us? Also, at least Nigerians are not dying from AIDS in large numbers like the countries in southern and eastern Africa.

Good answer here. Let Ghana not rub shoulders with us because they became too pompous and was already looking ahead of the match they had with Burkina Faso. Burkina Faso was even 200% better than them. Ghana had already written Nigeria off because they had behind their back that Burkina Faso wasn't gonna stand them and that the victory was theirs.
Re: Why Did Most Nigerians Support Burkina Faso Against Ghana? by Iyineda(m): 5:43pm On Feb 07, 2013
Honestly, at the start of the match between Ghana and BUF I wanted the former to win because Naija vs Ghana is a "sexier" final on paper; 2 west African rivals.
However, after like half an hour into the semis, BUF was clearly the better team and the Black Stars have failed to really shine throughout the tournament (bar the Niger match).
So in the end I was happy that BUF won, especially since the ref's officiating was clearly oriented against them/in favour of Ghana.

I have no problem with Ghana as a nation. We have a lot to learn from them as a country and I'm sure there are one or two things they could learn from us as well. wink

Can't forget that in 2001 that even their keeper was given a red card and the captain had to keep cos they've substituted 3 players already.

In 2000, Naija lost to Cameroun.. My mistake, but AFCON comes every 2years and falls on even number.. 2000, 2002 until CAF changed it, so there was no AFCON in 2001.
