I made a post days back about Sadiq Umar not been good enough even during the olympics, someone disputed me citing the goals he scored. See am now....I hope he builds his confidence and continue developing since he's young. Aina played well buy I'll love to see Ebuehi play too |

I would play Ebuehi and Aina as fullbacks. Nothing against Collins. At this point we are looking to improve the team going into the knockout stage. Don’t change the winning team much. They need more games to gel. Keep the CB pair of Omeruo and Ekong . Make most of the subs early in the second half. lloydtruth: |

I am surprised to read people having a go at Kelechi Nwakali. I had a totally different impression watching him. To me, he sold himself very well and made a statement. FLUIDITY That was the statement he made. He showed movement to open for passes. Gave the midfield an identity. That is, his presence took us from chaotic to controlled. He made the midfield tick with ideal short passes. He also showed some nice touches too and passing technique. For the time he had, I was impressed. 12 Likes 1 Share |

komekn: Are you saying because Jorginho can not adapt in an offensive role, he is not good an intelligent? Players have different gifts. In all these names listed above, the only player who can actually control a possessive midfield play is Fernandinho. So because they can adapt to multiple roles but can not adapt to play tidy controlled game, you praise their skill as supreme? It is not many players that a def at midfield control. It is a skill for elite football brains. 1 Like 1 Share |

Kicked the ball out of play all the way from Midfield Forgiveness??!!! Heeeeiiii... Habamana naa... We obviously won the throw in through wing play and not through some unsuccessful bits of tight space passing anything. Kaaaiiii.... Egbon e do abeg. Lol And recycling does not amount to nothing unless ofcos you only say this to avoid seeing the truth in the need to keep possession tidy unlike what we had in the first half. Aribo was possibly the only reason we broke through the middle when he drove forward to the box and beat a man with a fine piece of skill to help set up a chance. But deeper in midfield we struggled to keep control and that is why the CBs remained our best bet for getting the ball upfield in that first half to the Wingers. Nwakali and Iwobi came in and they were the ones getting the ball upfield through tidy build up plays. Anyway, Egbon e do abeg. It's okay. Lol forgiveness: 3 Likes 1 Share |

komekn: Trent is a pacy player which makes him versatile and a completely different player from Nwakali so it's not wise to compare them . Kante is a multi talented midfielder that can make tackles, interceptions, dribbling, runs with the ball e.t.c Nigeria has aribo, Aina, ihenacho e.t.c who make runs with the ball and if nwakali plays that way often Nigeria's defense will be broken up easily. |

It's so painful that we could have had Awoniyi and Dessers as our strikers in this tournament, and we wouldn't have had to deal with Sadiq. Whoever it is that decided to pick Sadiq over Dessers, well done O, we dey see the fruit of your labour. Nonsense and ingredient. 13 Likes 1 Share |

Joebie: All this Okoye slander is only this loud because of that needless penalty Aina gave away And they threatened us multiple times, he was up to the task. There was even one clean Corner they took that he rose above everyone else to catch the ball.... Anyway, I am not taking Okoye slander seriously today.

Our bench can do the job, not meaning to underate Eq. Guinea. But we need every match possible to get better as a team. I would start with most of our starters. The knock out stage will be another ball game. We should take the next game as serious prep match. safarigirl: |

He is good. The only thing is that the team's tactics does not favour his playing style. He is not the fastest player in the world but he has good footwork. I even think an Aribo could play off him if fielded in advanced position. Boomgist: 3 Likes |

TheSuperNerd: Rewatch the match then read the game. At the initial stage of the game, we were just recycling the ball. True or false? Why? Because our wingers were double marked which forced them to pass the ball backward and continued the recycling. True or false? What did Eguavoen do? He told the wing backs to push forward to support the wingers and Aribo also drifted towards the wings to add more support? True or false? What was their aim? To pass in between those tight spaces and at the same time force fouls or get set pieces closer to the box 18? True or false? Did they practice for set pieces? Yes! We saw how Ekong kept getting the ball through set pieces which led to both goals. True or false? This was a well orchestrated game plan from the coach because they envisaged the Sudanese might park the ball and get us through counter attacks. Recycling the ball is only good when you are leading or you want to settle the game. 4 Likes 1 Share |
