Uruguay vs Ecuador (South American derby)

let's see how strength and physicality will safe us now

We have finally met a more physical side now. No flair to fall back on. So, I guess it's time to pack our bags

Famocious:

Italy, New Zealand, Ukraine, Nigeria, S/Korea, France and Argentina to go through...

Na so

elyte89:


Poland,Colombia,Ecuador, Ukraine, nigeria,Japan,USA, Mali...to go thru,my own guess

Na so

Unnecessary hope.

Better Ja now and safe ourselves from embarassment like it happened when ladan bosso coached and we lost woefully to chile

I forsee such trend again

U just one make we ja commot 4 dis competition ,

Look at his positioning when the US player headed the ball. He gave himself zero chance of making a save. He was completely out of position.

The second US goal, He made it so easy for the striker by lying down instead of standing tall.

The Ukraine goal..

If there is one thing i know about football, it is goalkeeping. The boy is not the best Nigeria can produce. The under 17 keeper that failed MRI, John Amah is a better goalie.

I just have a feeling that Zaccala would do better sef. No need to even go far

I no dey even watch their match but with the lamentations wey full for here ehn....

Never say die

Well, i have not seen Zaccala play.

You should have just said you had a player that you wanted to hype. When was the last time you saw John play?

tbaba1234:


Well, i have not seen Zaccala play.

He kept a better oforborh on the bench. Didn't he?

Wouldn't be surprised if Zaccala turns out same way

I watched him in the WAFU tournament and thought he was pretty good.

He definitely has potential

Show of shame in caf champions league finals.

Match never start and you're already claiming defeat, Nawa o.
I think if they treat the match like an afcon knockout match they'll do fine.

Yes he was but u don't have to bring the other lad down to bring that up.

BascoVanVeli:

I am simply assessing his performance so far. If he shows something better in the next game, i will also acknowledge it.

Just like u said he didn't make a meaningful save in the AYC?

Still waiting on the CAF champions league final to continue after an hour of waiting because the Moroccans disagreed with a call. This is a big show of shame.

BascoVanVeli:


Just like u said he didn't make a meaningful save in the AYC?

He was barely in danger in that tournament. And i can't remember any save, he made.

He claimed a lot of crosses though. At the world stage, you have to show more.

Enaholo in 2015 was good in Africa but he was exposed at the WC.

tbaba1234:


He is poor in aerial battles.. Too poor for his height

Earthquake3:


Winning aerial balls should be the guy's strength with his height

If he doesn't win enough what does he contribute to the team?

All True. The other fellow added a clause which was a lie. That's what I was pointing out

The game has been abandoned and Junior Lokosa wins the champions league.

He made saves that is not even a question.

You say the world stage is different but u are hyping a lad from his U17 WAFU performance.

I saw more from Amah as a goalie than i have seen so far from Oremade plus he is really young.

Nonsense upon nonsense.

I think your criticism of that dude is harsh, he may not be a superb goalkeeper but definitely not a bad one

tbaba1234:

I see the problem you have with him, because he's not exactly a young player, he's a goalkeeper they normally long career

jihday:

He can improve certainly since they have long careers but right now, i am not impressed. Maybe he will improve if they go far..

Not exactly sure why some are optimistic of a victory over Senegal. Seems to me that Senegal is among the stronger teams in this competition. Is it because we historically perform well against African teams in international competitions (apart from Mali in Nigeria 1999)?

BascoVanVeli:


You should have just said you had a player that you wanted to hype. When was the last time you saw John play?

the idea of you and oga icon taking sides with this below average players is not funny I must say....

let's always call a space a spade....
it will take a miracle for this players especially tijani and oremade to get to the top level...
right now their performance is terrible especially the tall for nothing striker

Next Match definitely gonna be lit, pace and power gonna be tactics Aigbogun would use on the Day - as usual though.

Icon4s:
L

The state of the facilities up North is an eyesore.

Not true.

So young that he failed MRI?
