But on the real. . . . Argentina is pretty good. You have to admit that. So i can't really say that Nigeria has this one in the bag. . . . you know Argentina could come out of no where and win Gold. . . . and take it back to their home. |

Anyone watching the Brazil Argentina game? Whats the situation like and does anyone fancy our chances in the final? I bet its like we will be meeting Argentina if we go by pedigree |

@ mekk, ease up man we all know when it comes to soccer you outdone us hands down and if you check my post you will realise that i dont dispute the fact that you stand a good chance of winning the gold, |

| Re: Nigeria (4) Wallops Belgium (1) In 2008 Olympics Semi-Final by superstan(m): 2:48pm On Aug 19, 2008 |
onyinye2: smart talk. u sound very intelligent, are u a football fan? Emperoh: argentina has the upper hand. it seems lionel messi wants to redeem his image and win individual awards this year. he is wrecking the samba boys with his quick feet. can we beat argentina? unless messi and aguero and riquelme gets injured. even with that, they'd still have gago and mascherano. |

| Re: Nigeria (4) Wallops Belgium (1) In 2008 Olympics Semi-Final by babaibadan(m): 2:50pm On Aug 19, 2008 |
So far, Brazil looks like Shooting Stars of Ibadan playing Barcelona  |

Half time in the Brazil vs Argentina game. 1. The Argies are more aggressive and create more chances of scoring. 2. The game is quite tight, defence rules here. 3. Messi is a messiah. |

xyoung:Naw i have faith in Nigeria. What happened in that game between them and Belgium was legit. And if anyone wants to investigate anything it is the Chinese woman's gymnastics team. superstan:Yeah im a fan. Not just pride wise, strategic wise. |
| Re: Nigeria (4) Wallops Belgium (1) In 2008 Olympics Semi-Final by 2abet(m): 2:54pm On Aug 19, 2008 |
wow! that was a great match.4, 1. in favour of nigerians |
| Re: Nigeria (4) Wallops Belgium (1) In 2008 Olympics Semi-Final by superstan(m): 2:55pm On Aug 19, 2008 |
Iyineda: can the nigerian defence cope with messi's trickery and brilliance? i remember him diving twice in 2005 to earn 2 penalties that gave them the cup. they know how to con referees to win free-kicks. maradona taught them how to cheat. onyinye2: i am glad. |
| Re: Nigeria (4) Wallops Belgium (1) In 2008 Olympics Semi-Final by thendo(m): 2:56pm On Aug 19, 2008 |
Guys lets rally behind our african team as they tackle one of the South American powerhouses. It would be great if Nigeria can win.  |
| Re: Nigeria (4) Wallops Belgium (1) In 2008 Olympics Semi-Final by onyinye2(f): 2:57pm On Aug 19, 2008 |
superstan:That is what im saying. Nigeria is no doubt clever and sly when it comes to soccer. We all saw the game against the USA. The used that natural cleverness to beat them. But mind you. . . . Argentina sees the field like a math board. They know how to work the field in all circumstances. So for us to just totally assume that Nigeria will win. . . . is a little ignorant on our part. |

babaibadan: @babibadan dat nbc stuff is nt workin, dnt know whose fault it is |
| Re: Nigeria (4) Wallops Belgium (1) In 2008 Olympics Semi-Final by superstan(m): 3:01pm On Aug 19, 2008 |
onyinye2: nigerians are naturally patriotic. one expects them to gloat and boast even before the game starts. we have done that as a country many times and have fallen flat on our faces. argentina are the defending champions of the olympic football and have won every game since the competition started. if they manage to beat brazil, nigeria will need 13 players to triumph. i am not saying its impossible but it would take a miracle to beat them. |

rubi:Rubi, if you're where your location indicates, then CNBC is going to show the final live on Friday, August 22 @ noon CST (central time). Peace! babaibadan: Baba Ibadan don talk am; the match dey show here. Dem just wan start second half now. Peace! |
| Re: Nigeria (4) Wallops Belgium (1) In 2008 Olympics Semi-Final by Emperoh(m): 3:03pm On Aug 19, 2008 |
onyinye2:Anyone thinking that playing Argentina in the finals will be an easy task for us should pls wake up from that dream. I would prefer we play Brazil instead. Messi's trickery, Riquelme's defence splitting pass, Mascherano's agressive midfield work And then u have Angelo di maria and Aguero to contend with in the defence But at the same time, i bet we getting to the final also shows our spirit, guile and tenacity. Whatever happens, we will surely answer our name Believe me i bet it will not also be easy for whom ever wins. Nigeria has as much chance as Argentina to win. But i totally disagree with anyone saying the finals is ours or just assuming its just a matter of formalities. Up Nigeria!!!! At least we have a future. |
