Yea L am very much aware. Would prefer him to this Tammy of a guy

adegwurulez:

Tired? That was in the first 30minutes, no?
I cannot in good faith fault Ighalo for that miss.

safarigirl:
wetin? I don answer you

On what basis of all the Nigerian players in the world.

A player who has struggled to get in the bench for a Bundesliga team that was almost relegated last season. A team that's in the lower section if the Bundesliga and is not fat from the relegation zone. Currently how many goals has he scored this season or should I say how many games has he played or rather how many minutes has played this season in total.

Osimhen is simply a non starter is no where near the quality of Tega Abrahams.

TheGoodJoe:


You gerrit but you do not realize that you gerrit.

It looks like anybody can score that goal but a lot of people forget that it takes reading play and pace to spaces to get into scoring positions. Ighalo was not there before the cross came because he could not meet up the play and attack the space before the cross came. He did not get into position.

Gerrit?

do4luv14:



nope still I refuse to Gerrit, if a player was not dia, then a cross was not to be made,

I don't want dis to go on, so I drop ma case

Bottles don't have to be glass. Plastic bottles filled with water and cans can still be dangerous. That is even beside the point as what I disputed was your claim that there was no such thing as throwing missiles at players at AFCON 2000 which you claimed to have attended but the finals.

It's a pity there is no clip of that match around.

However, on the question of bottles and "objects" not being allowed in the stadium, take a look at what happened to the Tunisians at Abuja stadium in 2009 in the video below from 2:51 - 3:03. You don't have to be in the stadium to know that those weren't pure water sachets:

Lets look at it again.

It is offside joor.

Parts of the Zambian player's body are ahead of Balogun.
see his limb and knee.

Case closed.

Zambia ntooorrrr

Kog45:
Iheanacho goal against Cameroon and Ighalo missed against Zambia are two different things and no need for comparison.

The cross against Cameroon was well taken at a very right time but d cross against Zambia,oh my God any striker we turn to Usain Bolts to connect that cross.

tbaba1234:


Ighalo was a bit slow there, there was space to run towards the near post instead of the back post.

Anyway, it is easy to analyze when the game is over.

Kog45:
Thank u my brother,sometimes i keep on wondering did i watched another match.Am not Ighalo fan coz I don't normally rate him especially in eagles colour.

I prefer Nacho coz his goal rating is awesome in eagles but Rohr for now preferred Ighalo due to his formation, a top 9.

The big question is can Nacho do it as top 9 in Rohr formation? against Algeria and South Africa,he was pretty anonymous.It was his performance against South Africa that forced Rohr to call Ighalo, Nwakaeme, Aron Samuel meaning Rohr need a powerful striker.

Ighalo didn't disappoint against Cameroon in both legs,although some we argue that just a goal in three matches not good enough but we need to look at his over all contributions.A good goal in d first leg and his great contribution toward Simeon goal in d second leg,his input in d second leg was awesome.

Ighalo against Zambia had a nice game though he can do better,I don't see any reason to condemn him for the two misses,this are not clear chances and it must not warrant undue criticism unless those doing so have something hiding.

Another big question can Nacho have done better,well i w say in d first leg he does it just like Iwobi did it and did it again but we now have improved Zambia with different approach,so is a tough question to answer.

After watching this highlights again, I am pained about the state of the Abuja stadium. This stadium is a very magnificent edifice. See how smooth the grass was, way bigger and intimidating atmosphere. How Tunisia managed to score 2 goals in that stadium with that crowd is shocking.
It is my hope that Naija can renovate Abuja, Amesiamaka, and Lagos Stadium. In fact Lagos needs to be increased to 80,000 capacity with a well maintained pitch. These things are very doable. How I wish someone would see the vision to build a 100k capacity stadium in Kano and Enugu, these cities would always guarantee a full capacity with gate fees. But we should never play a day game in Kano rather we should always kickoff by 7 to 8pm when's it's much cooler.

Naija can have a world-class stadium cos it's very doable.

do4luv14:



after all those energy sapping display by Zambians, you don't expect him to sprint for the ball, wen the more purposely thing to do is to hold up play little, to bring him on, befor making that cross

kennysville:



What do u mean? Igbo man no dey take money play O! Na im hard earned money. He must to get value for the money na? Haba!

U neva go Alaba international market? Or Onitsha? Every penny na money... Igbo kwenu! Una too much.

That was on a lighter note.

On a serious note, the dude was plain stupid! You are soooo right. What was he thinking? M sure whether he plays weekly or not, money dey roll in. He earns no less than 15000 pounds per week after tax. What was his problem? In a country where women have rights, he was making a scene. When will our players learn? What ended Goddy Opara's career? Was it not alleged rape? Mike Tyson nko? He deserves all the scoldin he got on this thread. At least if you dont knw where u are goin, remember where you are coming from. The old sayin where I come from says " always remember whose son/daughter you are." Which is beta? A life of poverty or a life of Prosperity. He hasnt even amassed enough wealth yet, he is frittering 2000 pounds on Sawa sawa sawale. 2000 pounds that will feed a whole vilage for a month. Yall should never spare a child when issues of discipline comes up

Nah, he had space to run into.

A certain player from Moldova Ionata A. has been yellow carded three times already in the same game against Austria in European 2018 world cup qualifiers



Referees are going haywire

Icon79:
Bro, the young man shamed my country. The way he denied naija was very hurtful. And he concluded his statement by saying "I have informed the FA (English FA) that I remain available for selection". That was the dagger!

I honestly don't want Nigeria to be somebody's second choice. We need the players we would wear the uniform with pride and not because their preferred country couldn't come thru for them.

thanks alot, that's what hav been trying to make THEGOODJOE see,

even nacho wont make any difference,

jst to criticize IGHALO they will come up with a new grammar call " attacking space "

chrisooblog:
the egyptians have suffered 27 plus years of hurt that was just the release of many years of pained emotions. i think losing out to algeria in 2010 particularly hurt them to the marrow. like the great alex ferguson said after manchester united miraculously won the 1999 champions league
''BLOODY HELL FOOTBALL!''

Joebie:
People don't understand context. Remain available for selection tells you he is already part of the team and he is still available. So are we talking England Senior team now or the U21?
I'm still waiting for someone to point out clearly how he shamed Nigeria?
Most of us just feel rejected because he did not reject England.

Why do people keep saying 27 years as if the world cup is held every year.. Please just say since 1990 or say how many times they missed out of qualifying.
