Me too... was expecting a start for him but maybe the coach wanna exploit Liverpool's perceived weakness aerially hence the choice of Ulloa and Slimani... well shaa...I expect to see Nacho later on in this game.

Thanks goodness Musa makes the Bench... smiley

AITEO reaffirms commitment to NFF sponsorship





Aiteo wishes to inform the general public that it remains committed to its sponsorship deal with the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) effective, May 1, 2017.

We wish to state emphatically that contrary to media reports, there is no ongoing review of this agreement. The multi-billion sponsorship deal, was a management decision meticulously taken upon due consideration of its benefits to the development of football in Nigeria, tremendous social capital and unifying effect on every stratum of Nigeria endeavour.

The deal is effective for five years and we have no plans to renege on our decision. We hereby assure our valued stakeholders and Nigerian public that all aspects of the NFF pact, which includes paying Nigeria national team coaches will continue to run without hitches for the agreed five-year term. In line with best practice, we will review annually, to bring even more value for both parties and our stakeholders.

As the Official Naming Rights Sponsor of the NFF Federations Cup, now christened Aiteo Cup, Aiteo will continue its funding of the tournament - Nigeria’s longest running football tourney.

Executive Vice Chairman of the group, Mr. Benedict Peters was quoted as saying, “We will continue to underwrite the costs of organising the competition from the round of 64 for the men and women’s finals, provide solidarity support for the State Football Associations, expenses and indemnities of match officials, support for clubs, media, branding/activation as well as prize money to winners. This is at the heart of our group’s social capital investment vision of bequeathing a virile and excellent soccer culture and administration to Nigerians, which besides being Africa’s best, creates economic opportunities and wealth for generations of Nigerians”


The NFF has recorded significant improvements in its management and execution of its national team objectives within the short term of our relationship. We look forward to an Aiteo powered football administration that would make positive history with its national teams.

Aiteo’s relationship with NFF is unfettered in any way, and the organisation will continue to ensure that NFF gets the required financial support it needs to perform optimally. We will ensure that all stakeholders are kept abreast of any development in this regard.

Nothing has changed much. But Origi makes first good impression for new coach, Martin Schmidt.
He puts Wofsburg ahead 1-nil.

Super Eagles List For Zambia Clash Out Next Week, Rohr Visits England-Based Players
By Bamidele Boluwaji




Ahead of the October 7 World Cup qualifier against the Chipolopolo of Zambia, Completesportsnigeria.com can report that the list of the Super Eagles players that will prosecute the
crucial home game will be released next week.

Nigeria need to win the match to guarantee a place in the 2018 FIFA World Cup after their impressive performance against Cameroon, home and away, which placed the Super Eagles on top of Group B with 10 points, three more than second-placed Zambia.

Super Eagles Media Officer, Toyin Ibitoye, who spoke with Completesportsnigeria.com, said coach Gernot Rahr has been busy preparing for the Zambia match immediately the team returned from Yaoundé where they played a 1-1 draw with the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon on 4 September.

“The list of the players that will face Zambia should be out by next week because the coaching crew led by Gernot
Rohr has been busy preparing for the match immediately after the Cameroon game in Yaoundé,” Ibitoye told Completesportsnigeria.com

“It is a crucial match as we all know and we have a coach that is determined to ensure Nigeria beat Zambia to qualify for the World Cup in Russia.”

Meanwhile, it was gathered from the Nigeria Football Federation that the Franco-German coach will visit England before his return to Nigeria to speak with some of the players ahead of the match.

The match is billed for Uyo on October 7.

Bro, all this mathematical probabilities is giving me a migraine headache but I think you're right sha.

If they lose to us then there's no way they can attain 13 points I presume, right?
That's good to know sha. In that case, we will get the job done at home.


O pari


We will always do the Probabilistic calculations as long as we are not the only team in a group.

And yes Zambia cannot attain 13 points if we beat them in Uyo. So it will be over for them.

Hi everyone, with the ongoing left back issues the SE has anyone taken time to scout the former U-17 player Usman Abass, he plays in the Latvian league metta Fc and is one of the best players in the league, he's just 20 or 21 and had solid two years experience even though it's a low key rated club, nevertheless he is the dream left back, he's got everything and outsidetheboot.com have written a scout report on him, he's a real talent..
Now I know people can argue that his league is obscure and has no big profile(sheau doesn't play in a top league but proves quality with the national team)or that he doesn't have enough experience has some put it. I would have loved him in the world Nigeria squad but it looks like he dosent have that pedigree and experience yet.
We don't have much options and we have to face the fact that echiejile cannot provide that quality we need nor the so called experience which has no impact whatsoever, to challenge in a World Cup.

Ebuehi or Aina can do better as left back.. How much better is the Latvian league when compared to NPFL?
