No guaranty that Naija won't get to Russia and get to the quarterfinals (and further, insha Allah). No guaranty that England won't bottle their first match.

AJ01:
at least am not alone. Joel obi and onazi are disasters

They should be benched throughout the world cup since they can't be removed again from the final list

Aystarz:



Better than leaving that poor boy out of the world cup squad for an average Mikel Agu.

Definitely Ogu is a better player cos of his versatility.

He proved today he can play as part of a 3 man back line, enabling Rohr to play a 3-5-2 and this cut off the dominance of d English midfield

braimeddy:
I'm not impress in this game. We are still the underdogs and it doesn't supposed to be so.

its good 2b an underdog in d world cup

peachie:

This thing is definitely insane, ranting up and down like a mad man. It cant have a conversation without spewing bile from its guttermouth... what do they say again about empty barrels...

Baba e ni werey!

Obo Iya e ni empty barrel!

nonen:
Mikel''s time should be up with the super eagles.

Bossman the team doesn't av a replacement yet, the midfield was an eyesore against DR Congo wen he didn't play. if he wasn't on the pitch today, ighalo would av been isolated and the midfielders won't be able to hold the ball, we just can't find anyone that connects the attack and defense together like him. At a point he had to drop deep when joel obi and onazi was nowhere to be found.

In 1994 World Cup,Nigeria,Argentina and Bulgaria ALL finished with 6POINTS in the Group..your permutation is wrong..

England also has a bad team but Nigeria's team is worse than theirs.

I think we should be glad super eagles didn't win this last friendly before the world cup because this is the only kind of performance that can discipline them into performing well when it's needed.

I get afraid when super eagles win a match because it makes them forget they have a next match that's like a lifeline to them.

Afam4eva:
Abeg, let' forget the world cup. This team can't even win the AFCON.

The Jersey is the only bright thing in this team's future.

sapeleboi:
thank god the match have finished , because it nearly gave my father heart attack

What na world cup?

samtol4:
joel should be dropped immediately .Iwobi is a good passer of the ball .He should be in starting 11.Ebuehi should start ahead of Shehu .onazi should be replaced with NWAKALI .HE IS HEAVY AND FULL OF WRONG PASSES.The second is not bad .Uzoho gaining confident for the world cup. set piece remains tthe major problem of our defense

forget this Nwakali matter, he wasn't in the list at all

I really can’t believe we are still being scored with set pieces like this

Damfostopper:
nigeria defeat Croatia... like seriously?

If u hadn't jumped into conclusion,you would realise that i only gave illustration of how it is possible for 3 teams to have 6points each to the guy

And yes,Nigeria can defeat Croatia

prinsam30:
Nigeria have a long way to go especially the backs and the goalie dept

This dude didn't watch the match

AxceX:
Ahmed musa nobi player atall.man has really lost it

how?

Adekdammy:
Nice game in the 2nd half.

I expect Joel obi out.
Ola Aina based on his game against Congo
Onazi, he has really not being impressive of late. Ndidi and John Ogu are better replacement.

Meeeeen....Ogu Na beast of a player,i just love the way he covers up for Brian idowu..when he over laps.

kachi19:


I WAS ASKING SAME QUESTION. IS HE RETARDED

Nigeria,Argentina and Bulgaria ALL finished with 6POINTS in 1994 World Cup,so he's very correct..

lexy2014:
he wasn't really getting any supply. D first half was awful

Ighalo is not a skillful striker. He can't create something from half-chance. I mean, that's why he plays in the Chinese league. If he is good, he should be playing in a top league. What do you expect when Nigeria's striker to the world cup play in the Chinese league. I am sure this guy would not make the Eagles of the 90's.

haibe:
forget this Nwakali matter, he wasn't in the list at all

Yes i understand you baba but joel and onazi will cause a point at world cup

Folksyharry:


They have been doing it since the 1st half. It's because he chose to play for England. But I don't think it's necessary.

Lol......

Don't take it too serious


U no Naija na

haha are you not a Nigerian

samtol4:
What na world cup?

Masherano plays in Chinese league .When your midfielders do not provide passes what will a striker do ?

justy15:
With this second half impressive performance u can be assured what the team need is a little confidence to boost their moral, we respected England too much in the first half

You respected England? Did you also respect Athletico Madrid and Congo? You guys will not pass the group stage.

hmm...9ja my 9ja i hop u can do more than this in d world cup

sapeleboi:
thank god the match have finished , because it nearly gave my father heart attack

What're you gonna do for him when we play our first real WC match on Saturday June 16? Against Croatia, no less. Those crazies!

Please when is the second half? Is it tomorrow morning? And why is Tuface and Banky W not playing?

toluxa1:


All our previous friendlies were better. So are we getting better or worse?

Why were they better? Because we won against Argentina and Poland? This game was better than the Poland and Serbia game in my opinion. And again it's a friendly. The coach is trying different systems with different players. Against Argentina we started with 3 at the back and quickly conceded goals. Today 3 at the back in 2nd half stabilized the team.

You guys need to lower your ecpectations. We are not even favourites to qualify from the group. Encourage the team and hope for the best.

sapeleboi:
haha are you not a Nigerian

i mean if friendly match wan wound daddy what about the match with Croatia ?tell daddy to prepare o

caprini1:
Meeeeen....Ogu Na beast of a player,i just love the way he covers up for Brian idowu..when he over laps.

I have always loved the way Ogu plays, he is just not too lucky with good clubs.

I also hope that Echiejile is dropped oooo

And you think this is a better plan B? Playing ogbu as a defender? Smh for charlatans

dabossman:
Not a bad game. Many will be looking at yhe result but I'm more interested in how players performed. Onazi and Joel Obi didn't cover themselves in glory. Etebo and Ogu did better. Ebuehi also had a good game.

It's also good that Gernot Rohr has a plan B. He switched to a back 3 with John Ogu and Iwobi dropped deeper giving better stability in defence.
