Really? An injured Iwobi was on the bench against Cameroun, home and away, then he limped to the pitch with the injury and scored against Zambia.

iwobi didn’t even traveled with the team to uyo and Cameroon,he was out injured. You go dey talk Wetin you nor know. Abeg make we hear word.

I pray Senegal bails the continent today because Africa is the only continent yet to taste a win or even gain a point so far in this world cup. Its shameful

After this Poland vs Senegal game, the second round of matches at Russia 2018 begins today with Russia vs Egypt. Hoping to see Africa's best, Mohammed Salah finally make his WC bow and try inspire Egypt to a comeback to get their WC aspirations back on.

Poland vs Senegal has finally kicked off... Enjoy.

AIG07:
A news coming from camp claims that Mikel has been spending extra time doing some personal training.

The boys are not happy with their recent performances and are willing to turn things around. Starting with their next match against Iceland. I hope we are lucky this time around.

To win Iceland, they have to be colder than Ice and tougher than Vikings.

Let's see if Senegal can bring solace to our battered hearts.

Russia 2018 FunFact

As it stands, Senegal has never lost a World cup match in regulation time. Their only loss came via extra time winner in their 1-0 QF loss to Turkey at Korea/Japan 2002. Ilhan Mansiz was the scorer.

Senegal playing to its strength... putting their pace to use.....

Police game

Goal senegal

Yay!!
Come on Senegal

Thank you Senegal

Senegal making Africa proud

Senegal score! Woohoo!

Getting better for Africa.... from straight losses, no goals to coming from behind.... now scoring first!

2nd round of games will be interesting

Now Senegal is doing well. Lord help my Super Eagles to wake up from their slumber

I can tell you this is all the tonic eagles need to play their next match.... assuming Rohr doesnt go ahead with his sabotage line up, the eagles will fly next match. You can bookmark this!

I hope now we see the importance of moving the ball forward as against ball hogging
....and aimless dribbles

They are playing like a true Sub-Saharan African team. Disrupting Poland with their power and pace. We could've easily beaten Croatia if we had played this style against them, but Gernot Rohr decided to go the opposite it.

Rohr would always remind you that Croatia is better than us because "if you look at the FIFA ranking they are ranked way higher than us." But remember that, going by FIFA ranking, Poland is ranked higher than Croatia. Imagine if their coach had adopted that attitude?

Even if they end up losing this game, I wont mind.... cos they gave the fight and are not pedestrian.

It's the Senegalese players that deserve all the media hype that Nigerian players got. While our players were doing frivolous things with their time, Senegalese players were being serious with training.

Senegal doing Africa proud.

Bingo!

Like I said on twitter last Saturday, my biggest problem was the timid display we exhibited against Croatia. I have never seen a Nigerian side play with such fear of the opposition since South Africa 2010. I am really getting sick and tired of these European journeymen we call coaches.

Its the way the team was set up.... plus Rohr singing the ever useless chorus of Underdog in their eardrums... like they qualified by fluke

In micro economics,, there is what we call the "game theory"... You can either maximize your profit, or minimize your risk..
Now bringing this to football, gernot was busy trying to minimize our risk on Saturday, while he forgot to maximize our potential and strength.. "Pace and power"..

But then all rohr needs to find, is a "saddle point", where we are able maximize our strength and equally minimize our risk... And trust me, we would �fly..

Honestly, if he fields his favorites again in the next match, or doesnt get the balance of his team right... then officially, u can take it that he was being influenced to sabotage us.

Hmmm, Senegal has better players who are much faster and more physical than Nigeria.
