Arsenal continued their pre-season preparations with a 4-1 victory against Premier League new boys Watford at London Colney on Wednesday afternoon. The friendly was hastily arranged after the Gunners cancelled their pre-season trip to the United States for the Florida Cup. For the first time in pre-season, young Nigeria-eligible goalkeeper Arthur Okonkwo was not involved and watched the game from the sidelines; manager Mikel Arteta handed a start to Bernd Leno with Rúnar Alex Rúnarsson named on the substitutes bench. Wearing the number 4 at the back of his jersey, Watford's Nigeria international Oghenekaro Etebo started and was in action for 65 minutes before making way for Wise, while Emmanuel Dennis played only the first half. Hornets quartet William Troost-Ekong, Dapo Mebude, Isaac Success and Tom Dele-Basiru were not in the squad. Arsenal broke the deadlock inside sixteen minutes when Eddie Nketiah beat the Watford goalkeeper with a curling shot but it was level at the break as Philip Zinckernagel found the back of the net after his initial effort was blocked. Alexandre Lacazette made it 2-1 from the spot at minute 70 before Kieran Tierney converted from close range in the 77th minute. Anglo-Nigerian midfielder Miguel Azeez, on as a substitute in the 64th minute, scored the pick of the goals with a brilliant long range shot that beat goalkeeper Elliot in the 86th minute. Arsenal are next in action on Sunday, August 1 when they host Chelsea at the Emirates Stadium. |

Union Berlin signing Taiwo Awoniyi has lifted the lid on his departure from Liverpool. The Nigerian departed after six years at Anfield last week, although he failed to register a single senior appearance for the club. Reds manager Jurgen Klopp told Awoniyi the fact Union Berlin parted with a club-record transfer fee to acquire him is a good thing because it proves they wanted him. “He (Klopp) said it was a good thing because he felt like everyone at Union wanted to sign me at the club," he told Kicker. “He said it was the most important thing for a young player." Before adding: “I am convinced that Union is the best move for me at the moment. Maybe one day I'll go back to England. Who knows." Speaking on his departure last week, Awoniyi said: “After lots of loan moves in previous years, I want to finally come and have a home. "I owe so much to Union, so it makes me happy and proud to be back here. It's fantastic to continue on the great path with the club. I will give everything to quickly pick up where I was before my injury." 1 Like |

south Africa is the only African country that did not qualify to the knockout round of the Olympics. They finished last in a group that includes Japan, France and mexico. If we were the one in south Africa's group, does anyone think we might have performed better and even qualify for the knockout round? 1 Like |

So after all the gra gra that mike brown has been making prior to the olympics, “we’re here to win” we have still lost 2 games in a row. It just shows that sometimes whether a coach uses the boastful or humble route, their results on the pitch is all that matters. 7 Likes |

TMKsouth:This is hilarious. So as a South African, you literally check out mentions of South Africa on Nairaland so you can reply? Cos I haven't seen you here before. Anyways, I'm not interested a country penis measurement competition but what he implied is the truth. We Africans need to converge a conference to figure out where our problem is coming from. South Africa's problems as a nation started when the Dutch settlers lost their grip over the country. Like, you guys literally stagnated. Crimes, drugs, police corruption e.t.c took over. Same with Nigeria too. Our military leaders sat down and carefully dismantled the country post independence. 4 Likes |

JohnBullMySon: Thats the truth on one side, the only reason why south Africa finds it easier to medal can be associated to their white population. But on the contrary, how about black Americans who have from time immemorial broken boundaries winning medals in sports where white Americans can't dominate. Can we get the stats on which race has won more medals for the USA is it the blacks or the whites. Then we can get a clearer understanding of whether it's a case of nature versus nature. Say if blacks are assumed to be better at sports then why is the most populous black country struggling to win medals? We might be quick to point to maladministration and corruption as the bane of our inefficiency to adequately compete, thus, the latest example is the case where our track and field athletete are unsure whether they can even compete due to error bordering around simple covid testing and proper documentation. This can consequently affect their performance. But I digress. The real question is have the blacks in America won more medals than the whites. And have the whites in south Africa won more medals than their black counterpart |
