Ebuehi was also a delight to watch. Well timed movement. Caught out of position only once which Ndidi covered. 1 Like 1 Share |

JohnBullMySon: Nigeria vs Brazil? Uzoho made about 6 flash saves. Maduka made 1, and Ajayi had to clear one off the line because Maduka got stuck on his feet. |

-Iheanacho didn't have a good game yet Lad was decisive in two of our goals today. He bagged a beautiful assist pass to Osimhen (an action I witnessed in the flesh) and also laid the pass to Henry Onyekuru who clipped it into Onuachu's path to finish superbly. - Osimhen is wasteful according to many here yet he only missed one big chance all game (that chance where Ndidi fed him on the run in a counter attack situation after a turnover from a Lesotho attack). The other chances were more like half chances. Even his goal came from a half chance. That angle was super tight. You needed to be at the stadium to really appreciate how tight it was and how he still got his leg to hit it in the right manner and direction towards goal. Abeg OSIMHEN had a very top game and most of rhe chances he faced today came about as result of his industry and running into channels wing-sides from where he would sometimes try a snap shot or try to create a little shooting space for himself for a better shooting angle. Some takes here ehn.... I laugh abeg. 13 Likes 1 Share |

JohnBullMySon: I have watched Sparta games throughout the season. Once a striker drifts past Maduka's defenders, it's a goal already. In his last match before the international break, Heracles had only one chance in the entire match, one shot on target, and it was their goal. Their game against Ajax, it was like the net was empty. almost every single attack Ajax had was a goal. The guy struggles a lot with indecision in crosses and long balls. Comes out first, then realizes he can't reach the ball, then struggles to go back. Remember Sierra Leone's second goal? |

kellycute: Iwobi, chuwkwueze don't deserve to be in super eagles 11 today. Iwobi casually lost the ball like 3 times today that could had resulted in a goal against us. Against big teams, it could be unpardomable. Maybe it was because the coach played him on the left side. As for chukwueze, when lookman and Kalu returns na bench player he go be exvept drastic improvements happen |

kellycute: I'm not saying he shouldn't miss chances o, but the guy seems rather too wasteful to me. This is particularly alarming considering that in this our team, good goalscoring chances are usually few and far between especially against big teams. Go and check the goals Ighalo scored in his final years in the SE against the heavyweights of African football. Hardly any one of them was given him on a platter of gold. He had to utilize the meager half-chances that came his way. Osimhen just can't keep squandering chances at this rate, that's all I'm saying. Let me believe that his today's showing was due to his recent injury battles Sha. |

JohnBullMySon: The power of a header is very different from the power of a freekick. The best a good keeper could do from that position is to stop the ball from entering. That's just like saying good keepers should be expected to parry saved penalties out for a corner. |

And one of the Big Questions here: Who is the better finisher? Osimhen or Onuachu I could easily tell you my own take but I would rather use Stats to help enhance my points. Osimhen in serie A alone have missed 5 big chances in 13 games (7 starts). He has 3 goals and 1 assist. Onuachu in Belgian Pro League has missed "just" 8 big chances in 30 games (28 starts). My focus is on the number of Big chances missed per Game. Osimhen missed 5 in 13. Onuachu missed 8 in 30. If Osimhen had played more games, the chances of him missing more are there. Meanwhile Onuachu had gone through 30 full games and haven't even hit double figures yet in Big Chances missed. What does this tell us? The man is one of the most ice-cold finishers in Europe right now. Infact I have an interesting stat I had compiled since March 8 and waited for the right time to drop which shows that Onuachu is actually Europe's most wicked finisher focusing on League stats alone i.e the guy who hardly misses the Big Chances he gets. He even tops the Finisher-Elite, Haaland and we all know just how Brilliant a finisher Haaland is Without pressing any calculators, it's safe to say Onuachu's finishing is superior because The Big Man HARDLY misses a big chance. So what's the simple answer I wanted to give you without this stats-filled preamble? It is easily Paul Onuachu. No arguments. Osimhen is a fine finisher. A very good one infact but Onuachu is Elite in this Attribute. But it doesn't make him the better striker all round compared to the Monster Machine. I will drop those Big Chances missed stats comparison that shows how clinical Onuachu is compared to the goals scored. 11 Likes 1 Share |

JohnBullMySon: It wasn't a slow freekick. If it was slow, he could have caught it. It was a flash save, and considering the angle, the only way he could push the ball was forward. |

Somebody raised this question earlier and I'd like to repeat it... What's your opinion on the state of the Teslim Balogun Stadium pitch? Me think it needs some more trimming...Lagos might be the perfect home ground for us pending when the Abuja Stadium will be ready.. The world cup qualifier is too important for us to be changing home venue too often... |

They can be compared. A big chance is a big chance anywhere. The difference is whether it is scored or whether it is missed. And my focus is limited to the Top 10 leagues of Europe. You would be shocked at what I found. Onuachu is indeed a wicked finisher. 12large1: 1 Like |
