When I saw him as the next taker, I shouted. Like why Omeruo of all people? I told the person beside me that na outside stadium Dem go pick the ball. Alas! Baba disappointed me. The PK was too cold. He made Willy Willy sit down and drink water.

He killed my moral completely when the camera zoomed in to show his face and he looked like he was muttering some words and looked confused and jittery. I said to myself who chose Omeruo to take pk, omo the guy come disappoint me oo 😂🤣😂

Most of you don't realize it but Ekong, our captain's name, literally means "war" in his native Ibibio language.

Omeruo’s penalty was too good. I think he shares same confidence, technique and psychology as Ivan Toney of Brentford. Ivan Toney is class. He understands goal keepers, effortlessly rolls the ball in while the keepers go the other way or even if the keeper dives in same direction, he hits the ball with precision and with a curve that the ball slips through before the keeper hits the ground.

I was worried about Moffi’s. He went midline. Ekong and Iheanacho’s penalties were underrated. Both players combined power and precision.

Aina’s penalty would’ve been one of the best if not for the elevation. Keeper would’ve struggled with that even if he had dived in same direction.

Omeruo na good ball player na.. abi u no notice he was subbed in for the penalties.

ChrisKels:


I expected Omeruo and Aina to miss. Aina is too skillful and anxious to be a PK taker.

Big ups to moffi. He was the first to take the pk and his calm demeanor should be studied.

Imagine missing the first pk. Respect to Terem. He took it like it was nothing. Man was very calm and composed and slotted it home very coolly. And after Aina missed his penalty kick, he showed true leadership by running to encourage him.

I respect Moffi for what he did there.

Aina has done everything right until yesterday's game, perhaps the change in the position he played. He and Iwobi losing the ball carelessly made SA shone like stars, hope zaidu will be back for the final o make Aina dey him dey

but i no predict scoreline na..
I only insinuated CIV will score as well. It's a matter of who outscores. We could score 3 or more.. But I don't forsee a 1-0 slim victory.
I'm only saying we will have to do better with our chances

Make we just win.

He knew the keeper would dive on either side, it's obvious they studied the keeper well, either go for speed or place it where he won't reach it. Great technique from all our players. They were completely ready for all SA schemes.

We really need a good replacement for Ajayi, after this tourney. His passes are atrocious.
apart from his inaccurate passes, he as been decent at the back so far
