You are the one creating story out of nothing. You clearly stated because of red card. It is straight of your comment. You did not say because he was incapacitated.

Since I started watching football, I can not remember where a coach made a change when the game was level in the first half without injury.

You are the one grasping. Making fictitious claims.

You said the coach was tactically inept and then started talking of cards. Then said we should know.

Incapacitated.

You better save your energy, that one will keep going in circles

Mujtahida:

I really don't know what to say about the bolded but it's such ridiculous nonsense. So if a man says that he's spent sleepless night to arrive at a decision, it is an indicator of failure? I've never heard such inanity in my life!

Amidst this loss, all sorts of witless criticisms find expression like a dam letting out water from a muddy river.

"Efforts without intelligence will make excuses and failure"

What is the meaning of this word salad bro? Just because Eguavoen said he had sleepless night to determine who would be picked out of an already submitted 40 man list, now amounts to effort without intelligence? Was it only through effort and no intelligence that he picked those 28 players?

If we do not interrogate some of the things some of you say here, the tag that this place is for ogogoro analysts will stick. Na wa.

I predicted his failure from a pattern i observed of him, and the prediction came to pass even against my heartfelt and sincere desire. This is one of the worst AFCON outing we have had.
The prediction wasn't a ridiculous nonsense, inane, witless criticism or ogogoro analyses as you are trying to paint it. I am looking for more adjectives from you.

I want to push this question to you.
If you have been following Super Eagles and her players for quite some time, you are given 40 names to select only 28 leaving out 12. Are you telling me you will toil all day, adding sleepless nights to it, to pick a 28 man squad.

This question is directed to you. And remember you are not part of the Super Eagles technical committee, just a fan.

Senegal coach is very tactically bereft. How do you have so many star players and struggle to score goals? It's very simple actually.

You are playing a 4-3-3 with 3 DMs. Liverpool does it with 3 CMs, but creativity comes from fullbacks. Senegal are not even having their fullbacks overlap. As a result, they have a dense defense and an isolated attack. Their formation is basically 6-space-3.

If Zuchyblink was Senegalese,he'd tell you that Alliou Cisse is doing an amazing job because he is getting the results anyhow

zuchyblink:
To hell with fancy football,all we want is result. This tough cape verdean side we defeated them away with our fringe players during the time some people claim we were playing kick and follow football, but we couldn't defeat a poor Tunisian team during ghen ghen pressing

I know you miss your darling daddy and his nonsense style of play, maybe you should add how we beat CAR with his nonsense kick and follow football or how we trew away a 4 goal lead and we enjoyed the 4 games gen gen pressing more than the 5 years emotional traumer style of play your hotel manger daddy gave to us

Just imagine bro! Players seemingly dead under Rohr suddenly burst into life under Eguavoen.

These guys are just bad losers.

The new coach syndrome.
And after that what did we get.

chrisooblog:
Yes Bayern did pump in more goals in the last ten minutes because the play became stretched with Pique leaving holes at the back. So him going forward doesn't really change anything. Ramos would have been the best example even at that it's mostly set piece situations

Oga those matches were done and dusted. We are talking about a team that was one goal down and u are talking about the Bayern and PSG situation. Come on now, u are smart enough to know those are two separate types of situations.

Picking just 28 people is easy. Picking a SQUAD will give me sleepless nights for I'd be picking based on my philosophy, character of players, adaptability etc.

If him saying he had sleepless night is what is paining you, na you de have sleepless nights over him sleepless night

The refs are ruining this afcon. The red cards are becoming too many and follow a pattern. CPV playing 2 man down, come on!!!!!! Maybe the refs should be issued red cards too. I dare say every 2nd round game has had at least a red card. Some even coming early on in the matches, it's simply ridiculous!!!!

Sorry to interrupt, but will you have defended Peseiro with all this energy if he had exactly this same result at the afcon

Be honest with my question so you can see that its just your special love for our Nigerian coaches that is churning out all this analysis

At the emboldened, have you not been following these players for a long while to ascertain those.

Having sleepless nights so as to pick players he is supposed to know from the back of his hand is not good. It doesn't speak well of him.

ecoco2014:

NIGERIA WILL PICK MALI OR GHANA IN THE PLAY-OFFS,
DR CONGO AND CAMEROON WILL PICK NORTH AFRICAN OPPONENTS,
EGYPT WILL PICK A NORTH AFRICAN OPPONENT,
SENEGAL WILL PICK MALI OR GHANA IN THE PLAYOFFS.

My NOVEMBER PREDICTION THAT CAME OUT 4/5.

Saying he had a sleepless night doesn't necessarily mean he did. It's a soothing way to address those not selected that they are not forgotten! It's a human relation term. Ivory coast drew with Sierrialeone but defeated Algeria. My G, football is not mathematics.

Equavoen's tactic was spot on. In the first half, Algeria had one shot on target which came in the first 5 minutes.
Their tactic is to neutralize our attack and hit us on a counter. Equavoen knew that's why our forwards did not press in the first half and Moses withdrew a bit backward.
This is a knockout stage you don't just go all out against the 2nd best team in Africa.

In the 2nd half, we decided to be more proactive because Equavoen could see what the Tunisians were trying to do.
Iheanacho lost the ball and they countered, a long pass to Aina's position just needs Aina to trap the ball but he lost it. These are the little loss of concentrations that made Rohr prefer Awaziem to Aina.
Before our backline could recover boom a straight waving shot, took a bounce in front of our goalkeeper. A routine save with two palms but Okoye went with one (Bad positioning).

Equavoen saw a need to press their backline which Iheanacho and Awoniyi were not doing. He brought on Olayinka to press and Iwobi to control the midfield (Switching to 4-3-3) formation. Simon to drive in and Sanusi to go wide. Same with Chukweze and Aina. As we began to take charge of the game Iwobi miss-timed his control and ... red card.

Nevertheless, we maintained the game plan and there were several occasions Simon drove in and Sanusi drifted wide to receive the ball.
This game plan allowed us to press the Tunisians even with 10 men, and when Sadiq came on, Olayinka took Chukweze position drifting in and Aina going wide. That was how Olayinka was able to locate Sadiq unfortunately he shot wide (P.S: Sadiq and Olayinka gave it all, pressing, running, and dribbling).

Simon was able to locate Ndidi twice just outside the 18-yard box and he shot unbelievably wide. You don't give such space to a player like Partey or Kessie and won't pay dearly. Ndidi's shooting let us down. Comoros scored a free-kick from 30 yards but we have no player that can score from 20 yards. Wow!

Equavoen got his tactic spot on as it allowed us to control the game without headache, unlike our previous qualifiers.

It was the qualities of our players that let us down. A keeper that can't save a direct shot, a striker that failed to convert a through ball, a DM that can't shoot, and a 10 that got a red card.
Even with 10 men, we had the chance to equalize. Hardluck but as Iwobi wrote on his IG page, the Super Eagles shall be back. Patience my people!

The referees in this afcon have been poor, very poor and disgraceful, they are embarrassing and spoiling the entertainment this tournament has been serving...

None of them should make the world cup, they deserve they learn how to officiate without sentiment and narrow mindedness.

I do not query that you predicted that he'd fail. It is the basis of that prediction that I find laughable.

Now come to think of it as a matter of practical reality: even two options where one has to choose one or the other can be very testing not to talk of choosing 28 players out of 40.

Even Christ with his prophetic eye spent sleepless night in prayer just to choose twelve disciples yet he still chose a Judas you are here talking down on Eguavoen.

So in your mind choosing 28 players out of 40 should be as easy as knife cutting through butter right? And since the man said it wasn't easy for him, you saw failure. Pardon me but you appear to be like those people who once they enter exam hall, they finish quickly just to flatter themselves that they are intelligent and laugh at those who do not finish so quickly.

I'd tell you that choosing 28 players out of 40 would definitely give me and many other persons sleepless nights and the fact that he knows these players is what makes it even more difficult, not less.


I truly find your thinking absurd. Absurd not because you think choosing 28 players should be easy but because you think that since it gave him sleepless night, it meant he was going to fail.

Dynamic, principles and formulae in football? There's just too much distinct objects for you to run permutations or combination.

Malawi don score sweet goal ,Morocco GK self looseguard

Wahala Dey

May thunder fire anybody that will blame iwobi....these african referees are so amateur and stupid.

timay1:


I won't take that serious.

This same Senegal has only scored one goal in the tournament so far , coming from a penalty and hasn't scored from open play. Senegal is that bad at the moment

Ofcos that's the latest excuse they are bad at the moment, so bad that they need 2 red cards to score a goal from open Play

TheLoneCitizen:
Nwobodo is not leaving Goztepe this season, the club have offered him a new contract.

He has completed almost 3x more tackles than Ndidi this season.

ok so he should be invited to the super eagles to replace ndidi?
