My bro. Let me borrow some phrase. PSL is a local backwater league. Some players are earning less than 2k per week. Burnley FC is supposed to trash this Sundowns FC team. So why are we panicking when we have players from top clubs. Why the fear. Does it mean that we don't have faith in the leagues our players are in?? With all the Pro's in CIV team, we were confident that we will win and we did. But SA?? 9 members from Sundowns?? Not even Egyptians, South Africa. I no understand again. We have won this match already.

Don't forget, the same PSL commot Morocco. Let us be humble.

God gives grace to the humble.

Quality players can be in a backwater league. We seem to forget that a player's career is like a ladder to the top with stairwells and shortcuts and an elevator nearby. The bottomline is some are too good for the league they're in but can't attract bigger interests because what they do may be basic or no different. Some take a league by storm and get a chance at the elevator but will be smart to use the stairwell(Orban for example)

Some will be stagnant in backwater riding on old glory and won't mind moving.

Some will get their lucky break close to the end of their prime and still use Elevator.

Some are good enough to fill up quota. Some just chase the bag mainly.


Backwater leagues can contain excellent ballers but for time

Great leagues can contain prime otu and nonsense ballers despite exposure to all that technicality and sound managers.

This thing is not 2+2 always. I see it as norms and exceptions.

The main thing is just prove yourself consistently till your signature is craved by more than 1 teams at the top of ladder, stairwell or elevator. Else, na OYO.

Zaidu Sanusi has been named the best defender in Portugal.

source?

Hahahahahahaha! nothing to show.

ChrisKels:
Seems Zaidu won't be starting today.

We don’t have a better natural left wing back
Aina isn’t comfortable in that position and will gas out before 90 mins
Calvin is playing back 3 so no way he goes there

MetalJigsaw:
Osimhen has one assist

he was fouled leading to a scored penalty against Cote d voire. That is an assist. He also had another one against Cameroon.

Today is the day, Today is the day.

so winning penalty is now an assist. Rufus, bring my koboko

Bruno can play left back and left midfielder

Same psl players that eliminated star studded morocco and have gone on to reach the semis. Uncle, go and sit down before I unleash my nine on you

bisqit:

yes, winning a scored penalty is an assist. Be open minded and research it, so you don't embarrass yourself.

Barryseal:

You can't talk about substitute role without recalling that a prime Ighalo kept Oshimen at the bench throughout Afcon 2019. If Ighalo could do that to Osimhen, imagine what Adriano and Crespo could have done to him.

What and what did Adriano and Crsepo even achieve that makes you feel were that spectacular?

And at what age did Ighanlo himself make the SE team? Keep exposing your ignorance.

See Osimhen's age and look what he's achieved already. A top 3 world striker

soetanoreoluwa:


Lol.
Sorry to digress you see that it is not our fault to be so prayerful and always fulfil up the worship centre in nigeria. We only find hope and trust in God cos govt has failed us. Lol.

I have a dream bfr our first match against EG which was drew and I saw smooth runs afterwards I refused to believe it cos the boys were not playing well plus I don't rate JPe at all.

If I tell you the scoreline I saw between civ and Congo I was shocked I can't tell anybody 😆 self.. I still didn't believe it lol. I just want to watch the match and enjoy.

Who won between civ and Congo

The difference between quality outstanding top players and good is one main word CONSISTENCY.

The ability to perform at high level week in week out over the course of several seasons.

When you don't you get dropped.

What you see is players from backwater leagues playing at the very best they can or have ever had. But to do it with CONSISTENCY that's the problem.

South Africa will get beaten by Nigeria comprehensively.

na today we go know how important zaidu is today if he doesn't play

chinchum:
he was fouled leading to a scored penalty against Cote d voire. That is an assist. He also had another one against Cameroon.

Where are you from bro? So penalty kick dey get assist🤣🤣🤣

I hope our boys have been practicing some South African dance moves to celebrate with after scoring.

TFLASHOGEE:
Chippa united don release statement supporting nwabali woto woto for South Africa today as Nigeria still getting support within their own people

Arab money💰 is calling 😂😂

MetalJigsaw:

When it comes to penalties, the general rule is that an assist will be awarded to the player who ends up winning a penalty, as long as the goal is then converted by another player. That being said, if the player who wins the penalty also takes and scores the spot kick, no assist will be given simple google

MetalJigsaw:
E be like u get personal beef with am. What do you mean sick? He's not that bad na

its really that bad.

After the tournament
Coach needs to fine tune his team so that they can play dynamic football (not just 3-4-3)
The coach needs to look for a third choice goalie who is extremely good with penalties
A world class creative/box to box midfielder
A free kick/deadball expert
It’s tiny margins like these that make a team special

Has Nwabali been tested whether he is good in penalties or not?

CornOak:


Baba, you no fear today?

South Africa lost to Mali
Drew with Tunisia
Morocco aren’t exceptional offensively
Morocco got to World Cup semis playing without the ball when they faced football giants of the world
They obviously chose not to do same playing in Africa
Not bragging but if we were to face Mali today we would knock them out
So long our boys give 100% and are fit
I see no reason why we shouldn’t qualify
Coach should just bring on fresh legs early on like 70th minutes
Osimhen is gonna run and get super exhausted from minutes 70. Coach should know when to bring in fresh legs that can counter to kill the game
It’s Ivory Coast I fear in the final with their newly found synergy and never say die spirit of play

Na NPFL followers go know this one
Besides we need good alternatives in case one gets injured
People got scared and were praying to God for his speedy recovery lol
I believe next Afcon 2025 is Victor Boniface’s tournament

Goke7:
na today we go know how important zaidu is today if he doesn't play

He would most probably play. Most coaches wouldn't change a winning team.

Although he is clearly a minus and a weak link in the team.
