To see sheets like this from NPFL clubs na war. How will fans get to identify with them better if they're not doing stuff like this more often?

BascoVanVeli:


Ok but how did that affect Finidi for him to quit like that

Amedino99:

One thing i hate with our game lately is we don't shoot like before. See how shooting full this Euros 2024 every corner. Shooting is frustrating big teams as small teams dey use am score too. 1st half 5 long shots/outside box. See Denmark today alone. I pity England for how disorganized they are. Everyone committed an error today except Watkins.

Odunayaw:
We that watch them are telling you they're not tikitaka-ing anymore

We don't shoot, we don't cross. We don't score from corners or free kicks

Wetin dey sup between Doherty and Colin abeg?

Fill me in biko, weytin dey sup Sir

Thanks for the post but it is just someone typing jargons. No disrespect to him. I will explain why.

He is telling us Spain is ditching the possession game, but telling us in their last 136 games, Spain has been a possession dominant team.

What he could not see was De La Fuente was also among the coaches that achieved that possession dominance for Spain.

Another, he said Lamine Yamal is one of the bright spots that has come out of ditching possession football.

Is that not a joke? Lamine Yamal is from Barcelona La Masia Academy. Groomed in the art of possession play. In club football, Xavi Hernandez who is a possession heavy master coach, gave Lamine his breakthrough.

So when did Spain ditch Tiki Taka? That is a hilarious point. Was De La Fuente not a possession heavy coach while he coached the youth ranks of Spain?

So now Spain won the possession game against Italy, will we say that Spain has picked the possession game?

If na CAF now, they'd not hold Copa America because it clashes with Euros

mank1234:


It's because most people worldwide would prefer to watch Euro than their continental cup. Though I don't believe CAF would cite that as reason if they decide to shift.

South America time zone is far away from European time zone, hence they won't be any clash in timing.

Odunayaw:
Let me quote the General Secretary

“We are talking with Uefa, because most of the players are playing in Europe, the European Club Association and also with Fifa in order to find [a] suitable date.”

Although not for Euros, CAF decided to host next Afcon; December - January 2026. Why? Because of Club World Cup 😭

The golden eaglets might partake in the u-17 AFCON if CAF decides to expand it to 24 team in line with FIFA's new expanded format..

Lol
They’ve already had meetings to get a foreign technician
No Nigerian is getting the job
I think they don’t want someone that can say true truth to power
They want one they can control
It’s old news now

mostob:
Calm down abeg. Xavi was brought up with tikitaka but he didn't play any possession football when he was coaching Barca.

That Yamal came from La Masia doesn't mean he plays tikitaka. Fermin Lopez is another breakout kid under Xavi and that boy doesn't entertain any tikitaka nonsense.

Goke7:
The kind of chances I’ve seen players like lukaku and Griezmann miss in this euros, Lord have mercy!

Amedino99:
cr7 is way better than r9. Please explain why an injury prone player would be better than playing the Goat in a team for the long term.

More reason we should respect Osimhen
The thing is not as easy as it looks
