Within the next 3 hours, Nigeria will win an Olympic medal. It can be gold, it can be silver, it can be bronze, but we will enter the zone today. Blessing Okagbare should take a Nigerian flag with her when she goes out for the final tonight. She will need it.

when is the time for semi final and final respectively?

MrNigeria.:


when is the time for semi final and final respectively?

Blessing runs at about 7:51pm and Gloria runs 8 minutes before that.
The final is at 9:55pm, 20 minutes before Nigeria vs Argentina basketball. I hope it ends well for Nigeria today.

i hope so,god abeg

Y'll should watch out for men 400m hurdles in 1 hour time

At holandiz thtz when amaechi morton runs right?

Amaechi Morton comes in next. He needs to avoid hitting the hurdles. I hope he makes it.

Amaechi has to come in the top two because I don't see him qualifying as one of the fastest loosers If I am being honest.

Luckily his semi final draw is by some distance the easiest of the three.

Only a PB will take Amaechi through. Big moment for my man

Morton is about to go. He really needs to be among d first two.

Morton has pulled out

Shame. His technique has always been a big question.

what happened to morton

I knew Morton was injured after d semi finals

fredoooooo: what happened to morton

Nah useless technique cuz am ooo.
The Hurdles is a highly technical event where your stride pattern has to be just right.
Morton's technique is probably the worst of the dudes in that semi final. Absolutely Atrocious.

D guy was injured. It showed during the firs round

A pity about Amaechi Morton. He is young enough to grace future Olympics though

akintun: I knew Morton was injured after d semi finals

He wasnt injured!! His technique was clearly not working after 200m. But he should have finished the race. I will try get to him later tonight. He normally gets into his strides at around 200m, but today, he clearly wasnt counting the 13 steps after 100m. Lets get this behind us and look towards blessing Okagbare.

Morton was an absolute disgrace! Such poor technique it's unreal.

He was simply not good enough. One of the worst technicians on the track this evening

oga o , where is the sportmanship and respect fot the proffesion ?

bjdon: Morton was an absolute disgrace! Such poor technique it's unreal.

I disagree. He whole-heartedly chose to run for Nigeria. Thats enough. He obviously lacks adequate technical input from the coaches. If he gets a world class coach, he can be the best within 4 years. He's amongst the youngest in the field also. If Nigeria had supported him more, maybe he wont be dropping out like that.

Something is wrong with the coaching. No one know how he was feeling. If he completed that race with that technique, it might result in injury. He was bound to hit a hurdle, and I think it was better to quit where he did.

You have a point brohter. We are quick to attack our people when they don't do well, but forgt they train with inadequte facilities. I guess the emotion of the moment got the better of me. I hope the young man learns from this and comes back stronger in 4 years time

Jeter 10.83 with a 0.0 m/ s wind

I hate the fact that I am supporting Nigeria .Amaechi just went there to disgrace himself ,why on earth did he pull out ?This is a 400m hurdles not a 110m hurdles for crying out loud .What a buffon ?
