hensben: as if the france still dey the tournament with their brilliant strategy. My thoughts exactly! We need to move on! We don't have the best players in the world but we got past the group stage. All we need to do now is to focus on the next tournament we will play. 1 Like |

Mikel can't pass accurately. He can't score. He can't take a shot. He cant control d ball. He cant run fast. He's jus dere as a figure-head. He should beta learn how 2 BITE so dat we can know he played a game. |

bright007: @OP: Well i commend you for being patriotic but i beg to differ from your opinion. nice one missus! Saying "they also tricked us to underestimate them by not coming on strong" does not make sense to me,the only strategy i think they use is what the missus above said.what if we have score two goal when we are dominating?,am sure they watch our match against Bosnia,after scoring first,were they able to score back?,or what can you say about France match vs Germany? Sowei bro,but u did not learn any life lesson in the match. |

Matthewbriggs: I may not be a sports fanatic, or follow closely the exploits of the likes of messi and rolnaldo or understand the schematics of the UEFA champions league or FIFA world cup. But one thing I know is ... I am big fan of the super eagles. I try my best not miss their matches. Her encounter with France was of no exception...4days ago I sat glued to a Tv set for more that 90 minutes hoping and praying we would win that game. But alas we were beating 2-0 ... 2 freaking zero... till today those goals keep replaying in my head. *arrggghhh*. I had two option, to either feel bad for our failure or to see this as one of my numerous learning opportunities and instead focus on deriving insight and inspiration from this depressing encounter. Alas I chose the latter. Below are really key lessons I relearned from that encounter .And dis igbee made front page *vexed* |

Matthewbriggs:Please, take your time to read & understand my epistle cos I also took my time to read & digest well your write up! Your life lesson write up is good. But use another thing as example. Not Super Eagles, not that match against France. Any human that has the characteristics of the Super Eagles of 2014 World Cup can't even near success! The team never had the hunger to win that match. They didn't bother to score against France from the 1st Half. They still didn't know how they ll score until the French's late goals. Even if France didn't want to score against Nigeria, we won't win the match. It ll end in penalties. Why? Cos that Super Eagles team has alot of things working against it. In life, you succeed by working hard or doing your assignments well. Whether you are raised from a poor background or from a rich home, you must pick your onus well. Keshi brought incompetent players to the World Cup. They qualified by luck when they beat Bosnia Herzegovina by luck! That team can't score goals. They lacked set piece takers, they can't shoot ball accurately, they can't even jump to head in a freekick or corner kick! They only relied on Enyeama. Do you remember how many corner kicks Ahmed Musa wasted? Didn't Musa or the entire team train how to score or defend set pieces? Was there no other person that could at least try the corner kicks when Musa was playing rubbish? All the inaccurate crosses that Emenike, Moses & Musa were floating to the French's box 18, why didn't we convert one or at least get close? Do you even remember the last time Nigeria scored a goal from set pieces or head in a goal? Need I say more. Large portion of the mistakes & blame is for Steven Keshi. Cos he's the one that brought in talentless players like Mikel, Moses, Ameobi, Ruben Gabriel etc. He had 3 years to build that team but chose to bring amateurs to the World Cup. Do you know that over 40% of the team that won the 2013 AFCON didn't made it to the 2014 World Cup? Do you know that Nigeria's problem of gaining ball possession & not scoring goals but end up losing started at the 2013 FIFA Confedrations Cup? Go & watch Nigeria Vs Tahiti & Nigeria Vs Spain's meeting at the 2013 Confedrations Cup. You ll see that Nigeria won Tahiti cos they were amateurs & lost to Spain cos Spain were professionals who took their chances. If you deal with a weak man in business, you ll v the advantage over the man & possibly succeed better. But if you deal with professionals, you v to be steadfast & take your chances well. Spain & France took their chances well. That's why they won Nigeria 3-0 & 2-0 respectively. In football, if you miss your goals you don't win the match. The same in business. If you miss your opportunity, you pay dearly! Coughs, enough said! 2 Likes |

France won that match because the.ref.didn't give a red.card.to mathuidi and penalty to osaze for eves holding. Eagles.played well but they played.at half strength. Rome.was.not.built.in.a.day. Its better to support Keshi and more emphasis. To.be made on getting genuine talented under 20. Real understand twenty . |

your analysis is poor, are you aware the ref goofed, are you also aware that our boys did not sleep till 2am because of their clamour for match bonus. Dis things u said are irrelevant |
