Mujtahida:If you watch this comp keenly you will see Ekong was employing the tactics in local parlance called "handover". I don't know how to best describe it but watch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWFHFFEkp8E?si=WGE7rfNVAoVbcNgk |

Odunayaw:This was his comp. If there was any player who we had problems dealing with, it was him. His threat was evident. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWFHFFEkp8E?si=-uXkRbwjqde4S8Sa The Ghanaian analysts talked about him prior https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pW5CieiGipo?si=_gslIZAqsPwJcnIW I'm a pure football fan, I like to watch and learn not taken to prior bias. We know Ekong hasn't been 100% fit. His tigh issue is well documented. He missed one match but he's battling through the competition. If we play with 2 CBs, Ekong and his issues will be exposed. The 3 CBs compliment each other that's fundamental. |

Odunayaw:You're being too emotional, I didn't say Ekong is a bad player I'm telling you that particular game was his worst. Like you have no idea Magokpa had a fantastic game? If a No9 is having such a game who do you think he's walking? |

Who are the coaches listed to take over from Peseiro? The NFF should have 5 candidates at the back of their mind now if they are real professionals. |

Marjoribanks:It was Ekong who didn't look comfortable in that game. Let's not kid ourselves, that was Ekong's worst match in this tournament. That Bafana numb 9, Evidence Makgopa worried Ekong so much in that game. He practically took Ekong on a dog walk almost all game. That yellow card Ekong got which we all applauded was infact a show of weakness as he was outpaced most of the game. I want to believe it was the tigh injury he's carrying but if he's not fully fit, please and please, Omeruo should start tomorrow. |

By the way, I hope everyone on this thread is OK. Been reading alot today about comrades who lost their lives during yesterday's game. Read about a Nigerian who died after Oshimen's goal was cancelled and penalty awarded against. Talk about roller coaster of emotions. The last time I felt this sort of tension during Nigerians match was 2006 Afcon semi final against Tunisia. They started by misrepresenting our national anthem then to a score draw and penalties. I pissed on my body during that match walahi. Roger Lamier, the French Tunisian coach told a reporter years after that Nigeria gave him hypertension during that match. 11 Likes |

mostob:I have nothing to gain. That guy kept clutching and his right shoulder after clashing with Lookman. During the shootout, he avoided diving to the bad side. I thought our players didn't notice but looking back at the video I noticed almost all our penalties went to his damaged side and he kept diving to his left. It's a pattern. Iheanacho broke the pattern and nearly paid for it. It's just a personal observation. |

mostob:All his dives was to his left. That tells his right shoulder was legit hurt. Apart from Ekongs Pk which he banked on him shooting straight to the middle before he dived after the ball. To their credit most of our players played towards his right or straight down the middle like Moffi, apart from Kelechi whose pk he could have caught when he played to his favoured side. 1 Like |

charlesemeka85:Since when did Bayern and Anderlecht buy bad players?? A simple eye test on him will tell you he's a baller but you choose to look at who is buying who. I used to be like you when I was in secondary school, I loved reading back page transfer rumours. |

zicky:Iheanacho had to drag the ball as far wide to the keepers left as possible, risking hitting the post. One could tell he was weary of the GK pulling a save. The keeper kept banking on diving to his left(his good side) to make a save. Even Aina's pk he dived to his left. |

charlesemeka85:This coming from you? When last I talked about him, you basically poo pooed on him saying if he was good, he will be wanted by a big team. Good to see you come around, should be a lesson not to scout players until a "big team" is being rumoured to go for him. |

Goke7:They played better in the first half but the game evened out eventually. Their team speed was something else, blazing through our midfield at times. It was amazing. Hopefully, the national team selectors look the way of Ndubuisi Ndah. He's like the Van dyk of Orlando Pirates. They practically worship him there. He's Nigerias best kept secret. 7 Likes |

I dont know if anyone in our technical area noticed the South African GK had a shoulder injury. He was in pains on his right shoulder. I was screaming that our pk takers should place balls to his right. I think Omeruo was the only player who seemed to take advantage of this information. Williams almost caught Iheanacho's pk because he placed it on his good side. He dived to his left most of the time. These minor things can make a difference. Our bench should take note. 11 Likes |

Amedino99:But you were quick to pull up stats about Martins playing so so and so games with how many goals and if multiplied he still had lesser goals than Osimhen. You wanted a young 20yr old African boy with no name, from primevera to start games ahead of Vieri, Crespo, Adriano? Obafemi was just like Eletu who people praise for just training with Inter's main squad,same age Oba was rubbing shoulders with the big boys. |

chuks404:This is why it's bad to join a conversation from the middle. See how you're tripping because I said Ighalo benched Osimhen but same you didn't realise the battle for game time Martins had to contend with against big name strikers from Italy, Argentina and Brazil when he was young. Winning APOTY shouldn't be used to backup your argument either unless you're saying Okocha was a lesser player than Oshimen because of some APOTY. Anyway, I'm glad they are both Nigerians, Martins inspired a generation. Same thing Oshimen is doing currently. 2 Likes |

elyte89:Do you know Imobile has better stats than Ronaldo delima in the Seria A? Quick question, do you think if Imobile played against the kind of defenders R9 played against, he would have better stats than R9? |

Amedino99:You can't talk about substitute role without recalling that a prime Ighalo kept Oshimen at the bench throughout Afcon 2019. If Ighalo could do that to Osimhen, imagine what Adriano and Crespo could have done to him. |

elyte89:This is cheap takes. Martins was playing against generational defenders like Maldini, Nesta, Costacurta Canavaro while competing for game time with Adriano, Crespo and Vieri. By the way Seria A was run by a corrupt mafia, alot of them went to jail for match fixing and Juve was relegated. You can't troll Martins for not winning the league. 1 Like |
