So


We re looking @ d duration bro..d two most successful coaches in eagles tenure,d 1st spent 5years and d 2nd,an indigenous coach spent 2years and some months,u knw deir achievements..

Rohr is about using 6years,nothing yet to shoe for it;developmental /trophy wise.. So u think if rohr were to b an Enugu or osun man,by now he would be addressed as an ex-eagles coach!. smiley
Bros, Westerhof didn't win the Afcon till the third one, how is it Rhor's fault that he's only playing his second Afcon 5 years into his tenure? You people just like to criticise for the sake of it and not objectively

No team has ever won back to back penalty kicks at the Euro's. Can it change today?

Since June 4 I said the post below.

I love time. Time is my best friend. It always proves sound analyses/opinions right. Always. wink

Andrewbaba44 and his Pass-Pass-and-inshallah people can now allow us enjoy the rest of this Tournament finale. Thank you for all your passes. grin


TheSuperNerd:
Italy's got a very strong squad and they will love to make a solid statement after missing the last World Cup in Russia (2018).
An attack of Insigne-Immobile-Chiesa is not to be scoffed at at all at all at alllllll.... They are Bad guys. grin

At the last Euros, they reached the Quarters losing on Pens to Germany.

England have also got a very good squad but their mentality as a group will determine how far they go.

As for your guys, Spain... Just hold on to possession and inshallah and we will see. grin

Nerdy Spain did well and it’s clear

They lost the semis by Pk and they where the better team in the whole 120 minutes ,pedri and co made the Italian midfield look average ,Jorginho of Chelsea was just an escort

Nobody even dares to troll Spain

Pk is a game of luck ,good luck to the Italians

I don't know if anyone noticed Unai Simon's penalty saving theatrics/style. It really can be a problem if a player doesn't know how to beat that.

The only guys that absolutely humbled Unai Simon's penalty theatrics of moving like a pendulum on that goal line were Bonucci, Bernadeshi and Jorginho. They schooled him with the world class penalty hits. Jorginho's was the baddest of them all. grin




The trick of Simon is simple. Simon frequently moved in his pendulum-style to create constant decision-confusion in the minds of the takers so that they end up picking the easy route which is hitting it to his (Simon's) right. Simon saved almost every penalty that came to his right even against Switzerland. Belotti was the exception.

Simon's luck ran out and in the end, Italy are deserved winners.

Ofcos they did well. Reaching the semis no be beans but I assure you that had the Switzerland lads figured out how to put their kicks past a constantly moving/dancing Simon on the goalline, Spain might not have made it to the game today.
If Sommer was doing what Simon was doing, he might have saved a few more spot kicks.

In all, kudos to the Spaniards. All their KO games went to extra time. They balled, they stretched and now have passed out of the tournament.

Pass-Pass-and-inshallah.... grin

There is nothing as exciting as seeing your own countryman leading your National team to victory. The celebration is always different. E.g Mancini and Keshi.

It'd be an interesting game
Mancini has put a team if warriors together, Spain has the players (talents).
I can't wait ....... England always find a way of getting their path to finals easy.

I don't think the Italians defense can withstand the English firepower with the way Spain ran them over today.
With a Harry Kane Spain would have easily won.
