Victory Or Nothing Against Zambia - Simon ![]() By Augustine Akhilomen Super Eagles winger, Simon Moses has disclosed that team would do everything within their will power to overcome the challenge of Zambia in Uyo and qualify for the 2018 World Cup. Simon scored in Nigeria's 1-1 draw against the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon in Yauonde last month that put the team one step from qualifying for the World Cup. He stated that victory remains the only language the players understand in camp when they face them on Saturday. ''Victory is what everyone needs on Saturday. We know the importance of qualifying for the World Cup, so my colleagues and I will push everything we have in us to get the result,'' Moses Simon told the Nigeria Football Federation. http://www.soccernet.com.ng/2017/10/victory-or-nothing-against-zambia-simon.html?m=1 1 Like |

God bless you, my broad! If I hear about Zambia's young talent again, I will puke. You don see naija wey get old talents. Yup, Ekong, Simon, VicMo, Nacho, Iwobi, Etebo, Ighalo, Ndidi .... they are all old cargos, on their last legs of their journey. I can't wait for tomorrow to arrive so we can put this game to bed. Is it possible we could lose tomorrow? Absolutely! Football can be a funny game, sometimes 2 times 2 doesn't always give you 4. Think how Venezuela almost beat the Argies last month. However, what pisses me off is all these prophecies of doom. I am confident that we'll beat Zambia and I will tell you why: First, we're playing at home and would defend the home court Second, we've learned our lessons from the SA game Third, player to player, we're better than the Zambians When two teams are both playing well at the same time, the better team would prevail Player to player, we've more experience than the Zambians And it may come down to experience If you watched England vs Slovania yesterday, it all came down to experience Slovenia was totally outplaying them at Wembly, but inexperience cost them the match Slovenia made one mistake and England (Walker and Kane) capitalized Nobody is saying that this is gonna be an easy game But the cream would rise to the top in the end Mark my words!

like every super eagles fan it's normal to feel nervous about tomorrows game but i feel our players have done enough to earn our unflinching support. us as fans should also play our part. the players need our backing more than ever tomorrow. let's all (players, coaches, fans, media etc) continue to be focused and remain humble please let's easy up on the arrogance. i saw some pictures on twitter of nff branded champagne bottles. i take God beg however is in charge keep it under wraps and let's not tempt fate LET'S GO SUPER EAGLES AND FINISH THE JOB TOMORROW 4 Likes |

mumemma:Oh Nig 1-Den 4,Taribo and Rufai w never forget this match,d match Okocha played for himself not d team. That team should have been our best but Abacha ruined everything, failing to participate in Afcon 96 and also our suspension from Afcon 98 really affected d team but a lot were carried away with names of d players in d squad forgetting no cohesion in d team. Rohr should use our France 98 team as a case study with d preparation of his team coz it's similar.The present team failed to qualify for afcon 2015 & 2017 after winning Afcon 2013 just like after winning Afcon 94 we failed to defend it due to political reasons in 96 & 98. As u said we should not underrate Zambia.I quite agreed with u d team still have a long way to go,South Africa match really shown us that we need to have a balance team where individual absence w not be felt much,remeber it was Togo friendly match prior to Atlanta 96 that shaped d dream team in Atlanta 96. |

Zambia's Game A Match We Must Win - Mikel [img]https://2.bp..com/-ma_laWRSgLE/Wdc-x7_7gjI/AAAAAAAADxc/ts_XeASgY4MmHy9gJOjJopuz318QzOrUQCLcBGAs/s1600/John-Obi-Mikel-L-of-Nigeria-vies-for-the-ball-with-Jakob-Blabjerg-C-of-Denmark.jpg[/img] By Augustine Akhilomen Ahead of Saturday's do-or-die 2018 World Cup qualifier against Zambia, Super Eagles midfielder and captain, Mikel Obi has reiterated that the team won't underrate the Chipolopolo and will allow their play to do the talking on the pitch. Both teams will be hoping to seal the three points in order to book the automatic ticket for the mundial slated for Russia. Nigeria are top of Group B with 10 points while Zambia sit second on 7 points after round of five matches played so far. However, the former Chelsea midfielder, who has only featured in one World Cup appearance, told thenff.com on Thursday that they are ready to pick the maximum points on Saturday against Zambia. We know how important the match is; that is enough motivation to go all out and give our very best. There are several players in this team who have not played at the FIFA World Cup. They want to be there in Russia next year. “The talking will be done on the pitch. I have no doubt we have the quality to achieve victory, but we will not make the mistake of under–rating the Zambians.” http://www.soccernet.com.ng/2017/10/zambias-game-match-we-must-win-mikel.html?m=1 2 Likes |

Icon79:Good points,but thank God Moses V,Mikel,Balogun, Ighalo are in d team,nothing more we are winning. Based on player to player,remember Algeria,Cameroon are ahead of Zambia but d same Zambia are in forefront to disturb us from qualifications. Despite having better players than South Africa,hope u remember what happens. The major point i value so much in your comments was that of experience of Walker and Kane that made England beat Slovena. I know d same experience w come to play against Zambia coz availability of Moses V,Mikel,Balogun,Ighalo w surely make d difference. |

chrisooblog: some of us don't feel nervous at all, football is a game you win, draw or loose, nff's life depends on this so you can't blame them. But don't you think if Nigeria can't win tomorrow's game, then we have no business at the world cup? We need to win to continue to rubber stamp our credentials as african soccer giants. Only two african countries scare me no matter how good we are on any day; Egypt and Ghana, for the rest african countries , no chill not even CIV. Despite the way we abuse our team, all african countries still dread the eagles including even Ghana and Egypt, forget the noise, Nigeria is a scare any day for all african teams 7 Likes |

chrisooblog: a draw tomorrow is still not a bad result in itself so what's the scare all about, did we not loose to congo 3-1 in calabar few years back, even south africa beat us 2-nil there in uyo so what's the fuss about? Reason I said if we can't win tomorrow, then we are not good enough to be in the world cup. Argentina has been in bad form of recent but the eagles have been in good form of late so why are some folks so scared? The way some nigerians are scared eh, they will prefer FIFA to be dashing us 3 points instead of playing for the points. 1 Like |

Iwobi Can Be Among The Best Players If... Wenger [img]https://4.bp..com/-LIowTmoIW78/Wdc-H3HAEdI/AAAAAAAADxU/1-OYhii_NcEdhol_KWGPih7zZn_hHyHQwCLcBGAs/s1600/alex-iwobi-training.jpg[/img] By Augustine Akhilomen Arsenal manager, Arsene Wenger has revealed that Super Eagles forward, Alex Iwobi must improve on his goal scoring ability if he must be rated among the best players in the Premier League. Iwobi is presently with the Super Eagles as they intensify training ahead of Saturday's crucial 2018 World Cup qualifier against Zambia in Uyo. He was on the score sheet as Arsenal defeated Brighton 2-0 in Sunday's EPL encounter at the Emirates Stadium. “I think he is the kind of player who has a good availability and helps you a lot to get out of pressure when you’re in the build-up and creates spaces. “What we want of him is final balls and goals as well. A player like him must score 10 goals and he must get between six and 10 assists. That’s what I want of him.” http://www.soccernet.com.ng/2017/10/iwobi-can-be-among-best-players-if.html?m=1 |

How Mikel Reacted To Iwobi’s Desire For His Eagles Jersey Number 10 – I Will Soon Retire ![]() Captain of the Super Eagles of Nigeria John Obi Mikel gave a cheeky response to a question directed at Alex Iwobi on if he is keen to inherit Mikel’s Super Eagles number ten jersey. During the Super Eagles interactive session with the media, Iwobi was asked if he has the desire to emulate the shirt number made famous by his uncle Austin Okocha during his playing days with the Super Eagles of Nigeria. ” I don’t want to talk about this because as you can see, my captain is already slapping me”, Iwobi said and it sparked the hall into a round of laughter. ” In regards to the shirt, I’m not really fazed about the shirt. If I get number 10, I get it. All I know is I’m here to represent my country and I’m proud to wear the colours. I’m not really fazed about what shirt (number) I’m wearing and really my uncle (Okocha) does not pressure me. I mean, I focus on myself “. After Iwobi has given the above response, Mikel collected the microphone from the Arsenal forward and jokingly said to the man who scored one of the goals when Nigeria beat Zambia 2-1 in the reverse fixture of Saturday’s game in Ndola ” Don’t worry, I will soon retire for you”.
