EEGA:
My observations from our first AFCON game
Defence
Peseiro got it wrong here by playing two sweepers I.e Ajayi and Ekoong, who are poor in ball playing.I mean they are not ball playing central defenders.
Recommendation:He should pair one of them along side Kenneth Omeruo who is the only ball-playing central defender in the team because we need a central defender who can comfortably carry the ball to the midfield.

Midfield
Peseiro started the game with 3 midfielders;Onyeka,Yusuf and Iwobi which is a wrong midfield trio.He started Onyeka in the Defensive midfield role, when he should have been deployed as a b2b midfielder.This is because Onyeka to me is more of a box 2 box midfielder and is always on the bench for Brentford this season.He has barely clocked 350mins of action this season.
Recommendation:Raphael Onyedika should be deployed in the Defensive midfield role for he has been starting all games for Club Brugge this season, including in the Europa league.
He comfortably carries the ball from the defence into the midfield in a majestic way and with accustomed ease.Remember the game against Mozambique.

Attack
He started Moses Simon on the RW instead of Chukwueze.
Recommendation:Chukwueze has a strong left foot and can comfortably shoot from the right unlike Moses Simon who has been playing on the LW for Nantes FC in France.


Your number one point is wrong
Ajayi carried the ball forward on numerous occasions.
You may not like the CB pairing, but they did their job on the day
We only conceded because our players did not react fast enough after Iwobi lost possession
And that understandable
They weren't expecting him to lose that ball

True, I would have preferred a midfield trio of Onyeka, Onyedika and Iwobi with Aribo on the bench. Kind of like how we played in the 1st half against Mozambique. Onyeka to be roaming to and fro and Onyedika shielding the defence.

Yes exactly.
Aribo is not too good defensively and onyeka can forget himself some times by overlapping
