Gives result ke. With time we would have been blown away. It is just a matter of time for fake thugs to get exposed.

Keep in mind we made 9 points in the group stage and were unfortunate today. Do not make it what it is not.

Even you knows we are fiercer today and most teams in Africa will find it difficult facing us. Eguavoen had about a week with the boys to prepare. Rohr had years and took us no where.

minfelix:

Thats it bro....wetit concern Mourinho and beautiful football..."oga play rubbish and give me trophy....Di matteo use defensive football carry champion league ...but anyways let still support any coach coming in especially the one giving us what we want

Odunayaw:
First tell us who isn't giving the blame to Okoye

BascoVanVeli:
When Ighalo made his error it was Nigeria vs Ighalo, when Mahrez scored a top class goal against Akpeyi even though he kept us in the game it was Nigeria vs Akpeyi. Sadiq Umar struggled and even though we won it was Nigeria vs Sadiq. So why is it that now that we see something way worse we are making excuses The boy made a monumental mistake and that's that.

The hypocrisy that this moment is bringing up is alarming. If that goal was scored in street football u would be angry at the goalkeeper.

Sportilitica:
Our midfield was quite thin
Our game was predictable
Nobody is to be blamed for this loss
This was our slowest match and we tried the same pattern over and over again.
I have always been weary of overhyping our chances but then this is football.
Happy that Sadiq has redeemed his image.

minfelix:

Cameroon was a quality team we met before we played Algeria... Algeria won us with an individual brilliance football, not like there was a onet-two play or a shot that led to goals against us.
Rohrbof 2019 is better than Rohr of 2021, but the fact remains he is still the Rohr we employed, meaning he lost something somewhere that could still be found and make him the Rohr we employed... anyways that brings to fact that we can't get a perfect coach.....even if we get herve Renard, I'm sure his first "as usual first time new coach"impression will becloud our reasoning and when he stays 2/3yrs his flaws will begin to reveal

codemaniacs:


SE lost the match because they wanted to play defensive football.

The plan was to score first and defend which is also the plan the Tunisians came with and when the Tunisians noticed it and also noticed the inferiority complex of the SE they started to attack..

minfelix:

Brother, remove your mindset and target view from 1994 eagles set...
Anyways we are different people in Nigeria Sha, I belong to the "we want trophy regardless of what we play football"

safarigirl:



LOL

I have never in my life seen such an argument in defense of a coach. Never

safarigirl:


He wan make dem go burn the guy family house, before he agree say dem dey blame am

They said somebody is receiving death threats, and you're coming to say "They are not giving the blame to Okoye"

How much blame is remaining to give?

minfelix:

The super eagles I watched yesterday didn't play to defend, from the blast of the whistle we started attacking via Moses wing...jus that he was caged.

Odunayaw:
I'm glad you said we are different people. Also we have a right to what we expect. No hard feelings.

All I know is, Seek ye first good football and all other things will be added onto you

minfelix:

Iffa hear say I get hard feelings
"The kingdom of God suffers violence and the violent taketh it by force" whether it's defensively

Odunayaw:
I don't understand his post at all. Insane behaviors meted out to Ighalo, Akpeyi etc should be meted to Okoye. Why? We have done it for others.
Since that 47th minute, Okoye has been receiving his blames, but since they didn't bring out a cross, crown of thorns and nails, our brother isn't pleased

forgiveness:


He said Osimhen will score. Did he talk about the level?

The point is, Osimhen will do nada for this game. EOD

komekn:


We go over the top .

Osimhen is very good but he is not a world class striker. He has come back from a very serious injury how will it affect his game❓

Osimhen is a very direct fast and determined striker he has very good positioning , ultimately aggressive and with fearlessness , has blistering pace and good finishing and has aerial ability too. But he is not filled with trickery, deception and skill.

He, I am sure would have been told to limit the aggressive play and be careful not to aggrevate the injury and or see a repeat of it.

How will that affect his game going forward because aggression is a key part of his game with pace and determination. So he will have to have controlled aggression.

It may be that lghalo is still much more relevant than many think . We also have Dennis the most inform striker at the moment 8 goals in the EPL from 18 games is not easy.

Both of them would have made a difference in my opinion. Unfortunately we will never know.

Joezinho:
I have been a fan of Rohr but I think firing him was the best move..

Eguaveon did get the team to play with more urgency and to believe, that cannot be underestimated. To pay an unknown coach big money at this stage seems illogical...

All these woulda, shoulda, coulda won't change anything .History books would affirm we lost to Tunisia..
It's crystal clear Eguavoen and his coaching crew were outcoached. He failed the one real test the team faced in this tournament. Right now ,I think we should stick with Eguavoen and get him better assistants. Hiring Peseiro would be doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result..

Odunayaw:
Habamana...bro no do like that na

forgiveness:
To be honest, Okoye messed up big time. It was not even a rocket but the dude lacks experience.

However, I reiterate the coach is to be blamed because the midfield was exposed from the blast of the whistle but he did nothing to change it until we were a goal down.

minfelix:
Sacking rohr was unnecessary, now that deed has been done, one thing we should know as super eagles fan is that we should allow our coaches continue when they are getting result, forget about the style of play, I wish we can allow Eguavoen continue, his style of play is also good, we can never have a perfect coach or perfect squad never!!..just as we wanted Rohr to be perfect on all ramifications...we saw sweet and sour football under Rohr, let get ready to watch same under Eguavoen or any other new coach we wanna employ

codemaniacs:


Eguavoen wasn't outcoached..

SE was playing with inferiority complex which made them not to press and close down players and switch to a defensive pattern..

Eguavoen's mistake is not playing Tunisia with the same urgency , pressing and closing down the SE played in the group stages.

zuchyblink:
we were tactically out-smarted, you can only press when you have the ball

codemaniacs:


The midfield wasn't exposed...

SE were defensive .

The reason for the Gap is due to Ihenacho and Chuks not tracking back quickly anytime SE lost the ball.

Aina was made to attack and defend that wing due nacho and Chuks lack of pressing and tracking back so anytime Aina lost possession there was a gap because his the one that will also try to defend it..
