Spot on especially on the emboldened.

Nani against man city in the community shield also had one of this Ayew's moment and never anything like Muani's chance.

It's simple. Comparing Ayew and Nani situation to Muani is just something else tbh

Jodera:
Doing a volley and trying to place it at an angle?

Come on!

While I don't doubt that chipping is also an option, but taking the volley too is never a wrong option

Best bet was a chip. Forget all the excuses that the ball was coming with a speed or that it didn't bounce. In fact, the ball even slowed down after bouncing, waiting for Muani to do justice to it.

Expert17:


100%

Chipping the ball would reduce the speed and it might be cleared by the defenders running back at full speed.

The other option was passing to Mbappe.

in the heat of things, this can never be an option. You're bringing picture cos you can slow things down and snap it. Everyone knows Muani would even be oblivious that Mbappe was there. I mean, he's a striker and all striker (no matter how good or average) dream of that kinda pass to score goal cos it's a clear goalscoring chance.

I can bet that even you in such situation would never pass to Mbappe too

Lol... Na Martinez cause all these things. If to say na average GK him be, na you for talk say make boehly buy Muani sharp sharp

Expert17:


Very risky.

Otamendi was close to Muani, he will likely make the clearance.

Which Otamendi will make the clearance? Will he chip the ball to be hanging in the sky for minutes?

You dey whine yourself?

Expert17:


So the defenders will just be looking all through this process

He's ahead of otamendi unless he commit another pk

Strikers' first instinct is to shoot/score, agreed. Muani just want to take the glory, passing was an option as Mbappe made the run even before Muani received the ball.

Jodera:
All these things is that he missed it, that's why all these analysis is even happening.

Watch the Gif sent by Air.mark and still come and tell me whether that wasn't an incredible save from Martinez

Save was incredible because muani made it so
He had easy options but picked the most difficult

popizaino:



Joezinho - A disappointed and pained CR7 fans who wished France in other to have something to troll messi with.


Airmark - A pained French fan who does not want to be on the side of his eternal rival raumdeuter.

Lol... I don't know airm.ark is a French fan sha and I don't know if that's the reason. But I'm dead certain that Joezin.ho is angry because that would have been a decider if he puts it in

What I'm even pleading for us that they should just remove the bias aside and watch it with a clear eye. It's easier to see that 98% of the time, no GK would catch that

Jodera:
Lol... Na Martinez cause all these things. If to say na average GK him be, na you for talk say make boehly buy Muani sharp sharp

I actually checked the guy after he replaced Nkuku and I admire his style of play. He is still young and will learn from this.

He is better than all our strikers presently as he was a menace in that game. One day he would be asked about that miss and I believe he would be truthful.

Easy option like passing to Mbappe too?

Did you see me type that, martinez was fully committed and out of line
The ball was bouncing think of the rest

Funny enough, if he had scored that volley, none of us will blame the keeper because we did not expect him to prevent the goal. Everyone who saw Muani take that shot already believed it was entering the net. Even the French players on the bench were already on the pitch celebrating

Now that the keeper saved it, rather than give credit where it is due, they are blaming the striker who did what was expected of him.

Many keepers have saved similar chances by coming out to narrow the post.

Go and check saves of great goal keepers before coming with your 98%.

You haven't seen a chipped ball being cleared off the line?

And Otamendi was close to Muani

Just look at the position of the ball in the image you just responded to. You don't need any other evidence that this is nothing but agenda.

Expert17:

What type of Chip wouldn't get to the goal line before Otamendi? Even the Bayern defender couldn't clear Messi's chip after destroying Boathand that year, despite being closer to the goal.

This is not playstation, Otamendi will run 18 yards to get it cleared.

Expert17:

if muani move to position of the ball either otamendi nudge him from back---penalty or martinez is already on the floor which will make the chip easier

But he went and rush the shot

airmark:


You dey craze o.

Man already lost his marker, a bounce, keeper outside, upper roof yawning and he failed to do the needful.

@Joezinho

Thank you oga airmark. This is a better view of Muani’s miss. I think he literally closed his eyes and just hit the ball as hard as he could at Martinez. Zero placement, zero technique how he even got on the pitch I'll never know honestly..
DeGea does better saves week in weeks out, just a poor shot and poor thinking.

popizaino:




He should have controlled the ball,dribble the first Argentina trying to slide,then dribble Martinez and chip into and empty net.

Kolo Muani let his country down.

Expert17:

Did you see Mbappe free during the live match or after replay and analysis? Please be honest

Cos na only when something don spoil analyst will be looking for "what should have been".

Saying he wants to take all the glory is just you criticizing him too far Tbh. He's doing what needed to be done at that moment with that sumptuous ball in to him. The last thing on anyone's mind is to pass in that situation.

In fact, any striker that think of passing in that clear cut situation is really lacking in goal confidence tbh

Ballzproblem2:
things boehly got wrong and why Chelsea is in a deep mess:-


sacking tuchel mid season


buying young players , without buying second club,this is the case of putting a horse before the cart.

No offense tho but sometimes whenever I read thru your takes, I feel it's a drunk behind the keyboard.
Not everyone owns a club to have a feeders team, most clubs have models which work for them example is benfica & Bvb , then there is City group who have feeders team.
Boehly is definitely new to football esp owning & managing football matters at once , hence most of our transfers being all over the place. Hoping he gets it right. But investing in youngsters is actually a good one & Arteta's Arsenal is a product of that.

Jodera:
Like, a striker one on one with goalkeeper with an over the top ball to him and the thing that will be running through his mind is how to pass to his teammate?

You think football is all about watching replay?

But let’s be honest. We all knew that Martinez is going to save that. He already had that angle covered.

It's more of a poorly taken shot than a great save really.

I hope this Benoit will finally send koulibaly back to France

where are all this careless people quoting me coming out from

airmark:

Tbh, most goalkeeper won't saved this if played to the goalkeeper left(something he did).

This is a regular goal scored by most strikers na

I hope they're watching Ian matseen too

Joezinho:

Have this goal narrowed? Seriously?

And also, you think a striker will see that gaping hole and be thinking of how to pass to Mbappe?

So that leg wey Martinez spread like ashawo naim you talk say that ball lack zero placement??

Fear God na

Chelsea don't want to overpay for Fernandez

Itsrm:


The pass to Mbappe made more sense. Except he pulls up an Aboubakar, the chip is too risky. With how close the keeper was to him, I doubt he can get enough power on the chip to get it in without someone clearing it off the line

He could have passed to mbappe instead he went for the glory and lost!
