Three free men in the center of your defense.. Ridiculous...

Nigeria concede..

Poor defending. Any of the three players would have still scored.

If it is goal difference, then Nigeria will be knocked out if Libya and Rwanda draw.

How is Okpotu a footballer, when he can't bring down the ball with his chest?

I think CAF uses head to head. If it is, then we are still in.

Okpotu brought the ball down well, it is that #27 guy that kicked the ball in one yeye direction

rohr should have manage this team...

this inability to score goals have been a problem since ages....but the coach have become clueless to resolve it...
why not play another striker and play okpotu in the second half if he was that his hitman.

He did not bring down the ball well if he did, he would have still had control when it came down. It was his chance not Faleye's chance. It was because the ball bounced away from him that Faleye could shoot it.

Yes Faleye lost the chance but it should have been Okpotu's chance

A professional player can not control the ball on his chest with no pressure.

As it stands , Libya must not defeat Rwanda or it's all over undecided .

This is really serious

Now, if Libya wins with same margin, it will boil down to toss of the coin.

Heck no!! Okpotu brought the ball down, his job was done however u want to put it. I have seen Fellaini do this countless times

When you don't score goals you pressure on your defense.

The essence of football is to score goals.. No more, no less...

The reason we play or watch football is for goals, not defense, not ball holding, not skills but for freaking scoring goals...

This team can't score a goal to save their lives... Right from WAFU.... Yet Salisu refused to work on that flaw,... Terrible, terrible coaching ability.... Terrible coaching flaw,... A manager that cannot see his flaws and correct them... Is that one a manager?

His job was done??

If not for Faleye's fast thinking, that ball was going to the defenders or goalkeeper.

That was poor control.
