Positives 1. Chikwelu exposed. Let's see if the coach is senseless again to start her next match. 2. Keeper is going to change. This one doesn't give any confidence. 3. We have better players on the bench, as is shown when the subs came in. 4. Oshoala is out. As bad as this looks, Oshoala is actually not helping this team. She takes away many team plays and ruins them. Her asset is speed, but not much after that. 5. Michelle Alozie is a baller! 6. Coming 2nd in the group is actually better as it puts us on the easier path to final. Next match will be much easier. Our next tough game might be in the semi final. 8 Likes |

daveP: Nothing would have happened even if they added ten (10) additional minutes. We had all the time and chances to snatch the winner but we didn't. Counting on the closing minutes is worrisome. 68% pass accuracy and the lack of basic football skills leave you wondering what they've been doing in training. Anyways, we move. 1 Like |

Never been convinced with Randy Waldrum as Super Falcon's coach. Today again gives credence to my pessimism. Randy lost the game today in my opinion. The Falcon's though qualified for the WAFCON were never convincing. We struggled to string a couple of passes together. It took luck and moments of brilliance by some players to get us here. Chikwelu should say goodbye to the team. She's always been a liability. When you think about it, it's crazy that we lost most of the aerial duels. BB took complete control of the midfield, and they had us exactly where they wanted us. J 2 Likes |

I cannot even remember when last Oshoala perform in Nigeria colour, she has been plain poor. And I don't know what the coach has been doing with the team for more than a year now. The same team u played friendly against not too long, they dominated you in that match, today they still did the same, even with a full squad Nigeria paraded.I think we should go back to our local coaches. They did well handling this team, then we have pattern and proper build up. 5 Likes |
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by olapluto(m): 8:07pm On Jul 04, 2022 |
Actually we did contain South Africa for a long time and we did it well. But that was all. We didn't have an attacking outlet. Oshoala was piss poor. Ajibade tried so much to make things happen. Toni Payne was ineffective in the system too. We should play 442 going forward. 3 Likes |

Rita Chukwuelu has passed her prime, they hardly use her in her club. We have Ucheibe in bench, proper DM. Pair her with Ayinde, let's Ajibade move up, as CM. As bad as Odega is, she hardly do poorly in major tour, she can still beat defenders in the wings and provide delicate crosses. Use her and T. Payne. Anumonu is fine as nine as she gives alot compare to Asisat. Her goals qualify us for this tour. They when opposition team is tired bring Oshoala and Chickwuelu in. It is as simple as that. 8 Likes |

Anyway Sha me I'm saying my mind there I don't give a Bleep anymore, you can't come and spoil my lovely Superfalcons team Who should I blame now? The department that bleeped up knows themselves.. The players that didn’t lived up to expectations knows themselves… Same Selection Problem…. Why keep some players who we know too well that are supposed to start for some who can’t even run or control the midfield… Selection problem�

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by TheSuperNerd(m): 8:12pm On Jul 04, 2022 |
Boy. We got owned. I guess I heard the wrong battle cry. Lol Our starting midfield should not be having Rita Chikwelu in it at all. Ucheibe who had a brilliant midfield showing vs Canada in April kept on the bench for Chikwelu?? Ajibade Played deep when her ball skills, ball carrying and drive were needed close to the box?? Omo.... Waldrum was high on cheap rum today. You cannot tell me nothing! Kudos to Desiree Ellis and her girls. Balled us off the park. Our only true sense of urgency came with the changes. Ikechukwu, Ordega... these are lasses who wanna make things happen. And this team can do without Oshoala. If she is not fit.... Please bloody bench her abeg!!! No time! We balled Canada without her and excelled. Na wa. This tournament is SA's to lose. They are clearly the best side at this competition but then when I remember how Nigeria always came back after shocking opening results of a 1-0 loss in 2002, 2-2 draw in 2004 and a 1-0 loss in 2018.... I think we may have a deja vu coming if the girls indeed step up from this loss. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by arsenal96: 8:14pm On Jul 04, 2022 |
And people suggesting Ebi should retire, if not for her today, we will concede nothing less than 4 goals. She was our best defender by mile, even had assist for Ajibade's goal. Alozie and Plumpetre did very well too. Ohale disappointed today, as I rated her than what she showed today. Bad midfield didn't allow us to see what T.Payne and Anumonu are capable of doing in attack. If this coach qualify us to world cup and don't improve the team, we will be disgraced. 5 Likes 1 Share |

mostob: Totally missed the interception for their second goal. Refiloe Jane is not a born again. She absolutely buried Alozie with that sweet through ball. No way was she getting it mehn. But aside all that... Alozie had a good game. Plumptre too although Noxolo Cesane owned her for the first goal. As least, my fav SA'an player, Linda Motlhalo won today. What a Baller she is. This Man below needs to get sober and fast. 5 Likes

Ohale went to sleep for the second goal, leaving Alozie exposed and having to mark 2 SA players and leading to the splitting pass. Quite disappointed in her play and decision making today. arsenal96: 1 Like |

Yeah. Which was to stretch and just look beautiful on the grass. Truth is she got her positioning all wrong in the buildup to that goal. She didn't underlap enough. That was her wing. mostob: 3 Likes 1 Share |

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by AkinDS: 8:34pm On Jul 04, 2022 |
She had two players in her zone with no cover - the one coming at her who laid the pass, and the one who scored. So, in your humble opinion, who should she have marked? If you ever played as a defender, you would know that she made the right or plausible choice and that is to block the passing lane. Unfortunately for her, that was a brilliant defense splitting pass. Absolutely no fault on her part. TheSuperNerd: |

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by TheSuperNerd(m): 8:48pm On Jul 04, 2022 |
AkinDS: Imagine how quick you are to come to her aid with elaborate explanations exonerating her from any fault at all. The fact still remains that goal came from her wing so she definitely has a part in our conceeding. She didn't underlap at the right moment. Had she done that, the angle would have been narrower to enable the choice she made work out. That is the Truth. Ofcos it is not entirely her fault but she cannot be exempted 100%. It was her wing. If this was Glory Ogbonna.. I really know exactly what you will be saying. So save your selective elaborations. And ohhh, I have played as a defender. Naturally a forward though but these are things I was taught even at such basic levels. You have to keep one keen eye on a wide player as a Fullback and use initiative to know when to underlap and overlap to avoid getting caught out like she was. So yes, Alozie cannot be exempted. Enough of these selected talks for favorites and analyse the game holistically. 2 Likes 1 Share
