Babayaro Backs Ezenwa – It Wasn’t A Penalty, Referee Got It Wrong Former Nigeria international goalkeeper Emmanuel Babayaro has backed goalkeeper Ikechukwu Ezenwa who conceded the penalty from which Cameroon drew level in their 1-1 draw against Nigeria. Ezenwa was adjudged to have fouled Vincent Aboubacar who scored the leveller for Cameroon via the spot in the second half, but Babayaro said the referee got his judgement wrong on the incident that lead to the penalty. ” I said I will give my judgement on Ezenwa when he is faced with a team that will truly test him, and it happened in Yaounde. He passed the test with flying colours I dare say”, Babayaro told Owngoalnigeria.com. ” He was very commanding, backing out instructions and claiming crosses, he also made two good saves and reacted strongly to the rebound. There are still areas he need to work on but the positives from his game are more. ” Talking about the penalty, it’s a case of coming together. Yes Ezenwa came out without proper timing but so too the Cameroonian forward. They were both not close to the ball. ” It was a wrong call because the ball was there to be won. 50-50 like we call it and in the box the referee should always protect the goalkeeper and that wasn’t the case yesterday “.

We should BEAT Zambia in Uyo and be over with it. No room for draw please or wait for last game to qualify. Too much tension. Zambia can smell blood. They know they are still in it, all they need is a win in Uyo and they have our loss to south Africa together with the surprise away wins in the other groups to be inspired. Let's be prepared!! 3 Likes |

Enyeama Remains First Choice, Ezenwa Is Our Fourth Choice Goalkeeper – Rohr Clarifies Coach of the Super Eagles of Nigeria Gernot Rohr says FC Ifeanyi Ubah shot stopper Ikechukwu Ezenwa is official the fourth choice goalkeeper of the senior national team of Nigeria. Rohr made this known while discussing the World Cup 2018 Qualifiers game which ended 1-1 between Nigeria and Cameroon in Yaounde, a game Ezenwa kept goal for the Nigerian team. The Franco -German coach of the Nigerian team revealed he wasn’t disappointed with the performance of Ezenwa despite the goalkeeper giving away the penalty from which Cameroon levelled. “You know that he’s our 4th goalkeeper, the three other ones you know-Enyeama is injured and cannot play, Carl Ikeme is sick and we are praying for him, Akpeyi is also injured, so it was a problem for us going into this fixture,” Rohr said. “You can say he did very well; he must work harder now. We have two goalkeeper trainers to help him improve more, but overall, he did brilliantly well and also he played well for the CHAN team against Benin, so I am excited that he will deliver for the team when called upon.” Shedrack Obi owngoalnigeria.com/2017/09/05/enyeama-remains-first-choice-ezenwa-is-our-fourth-choice-goalkeeper-rohr-clarifies/ 1 Like |

Really disappointed in Nigerians. Do we really have fans or just people who always want to win. How many teams are in our position today. If the Zambians do not put up a fight and we go into the world cup thinking you have arrived, that can even be more dangerous. Unbeaten in all our matches and only one draw and people are already panicking. A team with a goal difference of 7. Haba!!! 2 Likes |

i don't see any problem here,no permutation will b needed,just win or draw against Zambia,n will qualify. if we play draw,we qualify via head to head rule,even if Zambia score 20 goals against Cameroon. it is as simple as that. 1 Like |
