Pure bad belle. Which team in this world doesn't know that an attacker on two goals should be allowed to take any penalty that comes up unless the team is in a dangerous position?

With Napoli being two goals clear, there is no excuse to not allow Osimhen to try for his hat-trick.
Osimehn personally refused to take the penalty so nothing like bad belle..

I won’t call it bad belle

But you see why I will always love Messi

If suarez or neymar are both on 2 goals ,Messi will allow them take the pk

There was a time Messi scored brace and Barca got a pk and where leading 4-0 ,Messi allowed coutinho play the pk instead of going to an hatrick
Osimehn did it in Messi way not CR7 style.

I remember that match bro. Coutinho was going through a rough patch so Messi decided to boost his morale by giving him that PK. Osimehn has done something like this earlier...he gave Kvaradona the penalty he won. I don't know why that Zelle abi wetin be his name sef can't allow Osimehn to make it 3. Enemy of progress.
Osimehn told Zeleinski to take the penalty.I think we are too emotional regarding our players.

TheSuperNerd:
Victor Osimhen, The Air Monster: The Superman Leap, the lean back in the air, that Insane Hangtime, the technique to direct it and the ability to connect with the ball with a force strong enough to propel it past Kevin Trapp to the top left corner (GK's perspective) of the goal

This Goal needs to be analysed more. It is a crazy headed goal. Probably the best so far in the UCL this season.

Ally McCoist of TalkSports tagged it the best header he has seen since 5 years ago. Lol

3rd pic frame calculates Osimhen's leap as being as high as 35 Osimhen Masks put on top of one another.

Good Morning from the King of the Air.


Great goal by Osimhen . He literally defied gravity. Reminds me of C. Ronaldo's goal for Juventus against Sampdoria in which he jumped 2.56metres and hung in the air for 1.5 seconds.

How high did Osimhen jump and how many seconds was the hangtime in the air?

U-23 call up.. Not bad.. He could eventually be drafted in to train with the super eagles since the camping period aligns for both team.

Super eagles or Under 23 invitation cuz owngoal said Under 23 and it seems NFF is forcing Orban on Salisu but if I have my way I will tell Orban not to accept such invitation.The young man deserves respect.

I think U-23 is a good start with the number of forwards we have in the Super Eagles presently.

I thought of it. U23 will be good. For him. Salisu yusuf is a clown. Inviting overage players to the team and collecting bribe. 14 players have been disqualified due to been overage.
How is he sure we wont need him against Guinea. The team will need a goal scorer like him.
He can score the winning goal for him.
We might even loose him to Togo if we dont act fast like adebayor

U23 is an insult to his face and talent..

He should be in the line up for the Super Eagles and be cap tied as soon as possible.

Calm down. This is his first full season in professional football.
U-23 is not bad. I would have even said U-20 but he is not eligible.

No sir.

Playing u23 isn't an insult. It's an honour and should be regarded as such. We should learn to have these players go through the process, especially if the national team is so swamped they will likely not play.

Olise currently plays u21 for France and it isn't insulting. He'll definitely get to feature for the Eagles soon but let's encourage this.

He is most likely basing his argument on the financial strength of the leagues... Teams like Anderlecht, Club Brugge, Genk,Gent and Standard Leige will smoke all these championship teams...

It really depends which Championship team you are talking about.

For perspective , do you think Club Brugge, Genk, Gent & Standard Leige could possibly beat Newcastle United ❓ Or which EPL clubs do you think they might beat ❓

Below the last 8 teams in the FA Cup, in that group are 3 championship teams and one League Two club Grimsby Town FC. All teams will have had to beat an EPL teams to get to this stage.

Sheffield United
Burnley
Manchester United
Grimsby
Blackburn
Brighton
Fulham
Manchester City

Not too long ago well last season I said Porto was not better than Fulham by comparison of players one on one. I still stand with that view. Mitrovic was better than any striker they had to mention just one player.

Money get you Quality you cannot hide away from that.

Ivan Toney and Mitrovic were top goal scorers in the Championship and now Ivan is number 3 and Mitrovic number 6 in the Premier League.

There is no guarantee that your Belgium Pro league teams you have mentioned will beat Sheffield Wednesday from league one.

Bros, according to recent form, no country is ahead of Nigeria

Even my pessimissm no go gree me talk say any country dey ahead of us

Remove Mbappe from France and what do you have?

Remove rashford and Saka from England and what do you have? Kane is inconsistent this season

Remove Musiala and Muller from Germany and you have an epileptic attack. The world cup ought to have shown you guys the truth about these things

NIGERIA HAS THE BEST ATTACK IN THE WORLD RIGHT NOW

TAKE THIS TO THE BANK


Wow 😳

Analysis or sentimental bias.

Kane has scored 20 goals in the EPL this season, the best league in the world and you say he is INCONSISTENT πŸ₯Ί

VO has scored 19 goals would you say he INCONSISTENT ❓this is the first season he has been top goal scorer in his career.

Kane he been among the top goal scorers in the EPL for almost 7/8 consecutive seasons.

Make we dey calm down o.. There was a time Osimhen was also balling in the Belgian league but was drafted to play for the u-23 to help them qualify for the AFCON.. Chukwueze and Awoniyi where in the team too, if memory serves me right .. From the report,the u-23 qualifier falls under the FIFA international break and the team will be camping in Abuja with the super eagles...so that's enough opportunity for Peseiro to take a closer look at him..I support his call up to the super eagles too,but the u-23 isn't bad..

Meanwhile,you stylishly evaded my question as to how you arrived at the conclusion that the championship is rated higher than the Belgian league... Only the world football authorities have the power to rank which team or league is better than the other based on laid down, verified and agreeable criteria..So from which of them did you draw your "the championship is better than Belgian league" agenda from? 😏

Again, Fikayo Tomori left out of the English squad. Does he need a prophet to know he should pivot. He could as well play for Canada for all I care, but waiting on the sidelines to get a chance (he'll probably never get) is just funny.
