The SE did their best though their best was not good enough for the win. I don't why they were nervous and jittery at the begining. And you can see that a a point the agentines were playing for time. Maradonna was scared stiff of the SE. Enyema did a yoman's job and I wish them luck in the next two matches. |

^^if that's our best then we should have let Tunisia qualify. That was pathetic football. I thought teams play to win competitions. If we dont believe we can win any team then what are we doing? Rastamann: |

It is a testament to mediocrity elevated in my Fatherland that make peeps come here and tell me that they saw the best Nigerian squad. We were better in the junior category in China. We had keita as a DM and Adeleye defending. Ok we were inexperienced in finishing and atatcked too much, but we are still showing these same errors 2 years on and an overpaid coach to boot! I doubt if this Arg squad can beat Korea and the best we can get from S Korea is a draw if we are lucky. Amodu is shite, but Largarback is overated. poor selection poor formation poor mid, leaving spaces Lack of imagination for set pieces ball watching defense and lacking cordination These are the reasons we hired him in the first place! |
Re: Nigeria Vs Argentina: [0 - 1] On June 12, 2010 @ World Cup by chika98: 5:49pm On Jun 12, 2010 |
I wonder what the back and forth is all about. Nigeria played like a bunch of kids who are just happy to be on the field. Lagerback maybe a bit better than Amodu but STILL. . . We were crappy! |

What a useless Eagle as they knew the scores right from the day we are fixed with the Argentians, Making themselves too inferror as they played the game my fear and names. |

Marlbron: and all these would be solved in 3 months? Nigerian football is witness a gradually transformation with the infusion of guys like rabiu ibrahim, huruna (should i say uncle stanley okoro ![]() |
Re: Nigeria Vs Argentina: [0 - 1] On June 12, 2010 @ World Cup by TruMantra(m): 5:51pm On Jun 12, 2010 |
Here is my analysis. 1. Lagarback's formation was flawed as it left the mid-field totally in control of the Argies. 2. Haruna played acceptably but we were under so much pressure he never got a chance to display his attacking ability. 3. The players were disciplined and without a doubt, they lacked that under Ahmodu. Still, their passes were inacurate and the absence of the mid-field meant that there was a yawning gap between the defence and the attack. 4. For the last few years, Nigeria has lacked a clinical finisher. Why would anyone expect that to change today. 5. Lagerback's changes were timely and changed the game. Still at the back of my mind, i wonder how the game would have gone if we had started with Osaze, Martins and Uche. We'll never know now. 6. The boys were overtly cautious, avoiding marking in a bid not to get caught. The coach needs to prod them exert more pressure even when they dont have posession. 7. The long balls dont work for Nigeria. Why in the world we keep trying them beats me. Finally, we played against Argentina. I honestly thought that we'd lose by at least a 3 goal margin. The folks that are saying Enyeama saved us need to understand that it's exactly what he is meant to do. I salute him. |

bad display. There was no urgency in our play. They gave the Argentines too much room. For 4-5 minutes, we couldnt touch the ball. The Argies are great team agreed but we cant beat Niger republic if we play like this. 0 technical input from Lagerback |
Re: Nigeria Vs Argentina: [0 - 1] On June 12, 2010 @ World Cup by Sagamite(m): 5:53pm On Jun 12, 2010 |
chamotex: What is the point of paying N10m a year to not improve our set piece play. That one should be part of tactics in training, so that is coaches responsibility WHEN IT IS APPALLING EVERYTIME, not just once. A few times, players fault. Everytime wasted, then they did not have some plan. They only did better than expected BASED ON KEEPERS performance not some team stopping attack. That is a whole lot of difference. If it is that Arg played but we defended and frustrated them, I will clap. Arg is superior. But they almost scored a basketful if not for Enyeama. How am I suppose to applaud the team then? |

Sagamite: I did not say they played the same way today. I asked what they did under Amodu since you think there's no difference. This is only the first game of the tournament against arguably one of the best sides in the world. . We made mistakes yes but you seem like you have been waiting for this. . . Why don't you watch how Lars fares against the next 2 teams before you pass judgement. . At least we fired Amodu after a run of disastrous results. . Why don't you just wait until the tournament ends. . . |
Re: Nigeria Vs Argentina: [0 - 1] On June 12, 2010 @ World Cup by dayokanu(m): 5:54pm On Jun 12, 2010 |
I expected us to lose but from what I say today, due to the poor play of our players we lost a chance to draw. Poor play probably due to stage fright and which National team in the world wont be awed by the Argentines I am surprised you guys have the guts to come here and try and claim this was not a heart-attack display.We played quite well and well beyond expectations We gave away a moronic goal. Keeper saved 5 clear goals. Happens to the best teams in the world. Mention any team in the world and I would tell you the number of moronic goals that was given away. We were used as passing training material. Training material from Argentina is better than from Zambia and Ghana U21 team The players could not be bothered. Yet they were making last ditch tackles and running all over the field, even Yakubu that I hated so much impressed me today We were countered attack that could kill anyone. This happens everytime Team play was APPALLING until Odems and Uche came in. Did you watch the 1999 CL finals where 2 subs by Fergie changed the game? Wasnt he called a genius for that rather than ppl ask why Sheringham and Solskjaer didnt start. If Messi had been a Nigerian and missed 5 one on one with the keeper, I bet Sagamu woulda killed him |

This game is over; i hope the eagles can sit down and watch the Greece - South Korea match. If we loose to Greece then it will be effectively over. |

Re: Nigeria Vs Argentina: [0 - 1] On June 12, 2010 @ World Cup by bidemi12(m): 5:56pm On Jun 12, 2010 |
i believe we did admirably. i am also sure will defeat all other opponents with five and six goals difference till we reach the finals. well if you believe that then you will believe anything. with the perfomance displayed today, we definitely will not pass the group stage. like everything in Nigeria we cannot manage our potential and are now paying for it. nfa should have built on the success of westerhof but it has been downhill ever since 2004. i propose we all sit back on future nigerian matches (holding a glass of heineken) and place bets on the losing side (Nigeria). might as well make money on it. |

Re: Nigeria Vs Argentina: [0 - 1] On June 12, 2010 @ World Cup by princekevo(m): 6:00pm On Jun 12, 2010 |
Someone asked a question to those Amodu A$$ lickers. We lost 3-1 to Egypt under Amodu, how many should we have lost to Argentina if he were to be the coach? Am saying it again, for that last 2years Amodu distroyed Super this has been their best performance. I dont know why some people are being clouded with sentiments. Like i said before, anyone who think the boys didnt try their best should wear his Jesseys for next or forever remain silent. |
Re: Nigeria Vs Argentina: [0 - 1] On June 12, 2010 @ World Cup by Nobody: 6:01pm On Jun 12, 2010 |
some people come here and talk about argentina like its gabon,what sort of players do we have to even dare to compare to argentina some said they gave argentina room to play but you all seem to forget that argentina has at least 5 game winners in the team who can change the game with any sort of space hence the SE allowed them room infront of the boxz cos if they had rushed out to mark,there woulkd have been room in bavck for argentina to exploit and we all saw that towards the end when haruna rushed out and a pass was made to messi and keita came and took the ball away. lets be sensible when making comments,trying to rush mark them would have left big gaps in the back which we did not have today,compare this same SE to the one that lost 3-1 to egypt,1-0 to ghana U-20 if you all noticed all their chances came via solo moves started btw messi and another player. we played to instructions but we were scared |
Re: Nigeria Vs Argentina: [0 - 1] On June 12, 2010 @ World Cup by Nobody: 6:01pm On Jun 12, 2010 |
The Argentinian goal should have been disallowed. A Nigerian player was delibrately blocked from defending the corner kick. |

Re: Nigeria Vs Argentina: [0 - 1] On June 12, 2010 @ World Cup by ezan(m): 6:02pm On Jun 12, 2010 |
. . . getting tired of 1-0 losses to Argentina; Maradona is no coach; with the crop of players they had, their performance was horribly poor. Our tactical execution was fair. Most surprising though, the argentinians were just as scared and nervous of the SE as we were of them. I guess they weren't sure what kind of super eagles would show up. Definitely not a good performance; we lost. I still don't understand why Osaze and/or Martins didn't play from the start. |
Re: Nigeria Vs Argentina: [0 - 1] On June 12, 2010 @ World Cup by Marlbron: 6:03pm On Jun 12, 2010 |
At the begining I thought Ramon Domenech was our manager when I saw the selection, Exactly. How can you in all honesty play a DM as a wide man? This guy cannot shoot and he knows it! We had warm up matches ffss!!! What were your better players doing on the bench? We had an Arg squad that was sharp attacking wise, bt not very good mid and defense. It would be interesting to see how they do against S Korea, who are more intelligent players! We shall see. Talking about nerves, the Argies were very nervous. They fear Nigeria a lot, so on the nerve front we were equal! |
Re: Nigeria Vs Argentina: [0 - 1] On June 12, 2010 @ World Cup by Sagamite(m): 6:03pm On Jun 12, 2010 |
omar22: Thank you for being objective. If Argentina play like that against South Korea, if they are not BEATEN, they will be pegged into their half as they were not great defensively. Our players were just not interested in going forward, they were happy to lose slightly. Argentina was only strong upfront today especially messi and the others movement and closing down. If we played more coordinated and with confidence like the last 20 mins if Odems and Uche had started. A DRAW WAS FEASIBLE and WE LOST THE CHANCE! |
Re: Nigeria Vs Argentina: [0 - 1] On June 12, 2010 @ World Cup by AjanleKoko: 6:03pm On Jun 12, 2010 |
@Sagamite, take it easy man. Was just joking around there. It is just a game, after all. All your angst won't change anything anyway. Even if Amodu, Kanu, and Lagerback came on to play, nothing much would have changed. The finer things are beyond us for now. |
