Hmmmm this our coach don tey oooo since 2015 , nawao..
I'm not saying they should sack him oo..

Iamgrey5:
The players are fatigue because of the coach tactics.

He played a ridiculous tactics.


He needed a goal but left a struggle striker on the field.

We needed a second striker in the last twenty minutes really badly but he couldn't see it.

Musa was practically playing as the second striker for last few minutes of the match.

bobochem:
The problem is d coach.not ighalo.no body to complement in upfront.musa was just shadow of himself.remove him bring in the tall that started against burundi.remove kalu bring chukwueze or onyekuru

dominique:
Almost 70% possession and nothing to show for it, stupid team

dochenaj:

Atlanta 96 must be continental trophy right?

roomus:
Exactly wat I thought too...they were putting in crosses for nobody..when onuachu wud have given ighalo some space...d only winger we have that could beat defenders comfortably was chukwueze buh probably they still see him as a young inexperienced lad even after his exploits with Villarreal...at least he would have been a handful for the Madagascan defence who were just too comfortable throughout the match..a lot of freekicks would have gone our way...the coach really needs to figure out his first team fast

codemaniacs:


Are you ighalo

you never ever say bring in chukwueze or onyekuru when onyekuru is a striker and chukwueze is a winger which means they can play together at the same time...

ighalo is old and should make way for the younger ones...

One of our problem in this country is we always want to be on top even when we have not done so wonderfully well in our preparattions. You win some and you lose some. The most important thing is we have qualified for the next round. Let’s apprecaite these guys, they have done well but not to our expectation. We can only offer our words of encouragement and allow them focus on the next game. Nigerians!!!

olabolaji:
where stoke City's ETEBO is the corner kicker, free kicker, goal kicker, sub kicker, everything kicker WTF

beauty7:
with this 2:0 defeat,i am now confident that Nigeria will carry the cup.

If Nigeria had won today's game,they would not carry the cup.

But there is also a likelihood that Egypt and Madagascar will play the final, if for some reasons Nigeria fails to reach the final.

But i believe Nigeria will reach the final and carry the afcon cup

What is Match bonuses?

Freehuman:


You understand am. German female team had not conceded a goal through out their world cup campaign but yesterday they lost to an inferior Swedish team with a goal difference. Spain in 2010 lost a match. In Champions League, Barcelona always go undefeated till they fail in quarter finals or semi finals. Liverpool this year lost two group stage matches.

There's always that thing that makes a favorite who loses or draws a match with a presumed weaker opponent during the group stage to sit up and win the final.

Kenturkey048:
oya renounce as dem don thrash us.

obeycian:
the match weak me ooo.. Nigeria is full of surprises sha

Kenturkey048:
I expected a draw or loss...boys wey dem never gree pay them their bonuses...you no see d way dem day play wey even d commentator say there is something seriously wrong with this Nigerian team...

Angelfrost:


Stop... Please, just stop... If you don't watch football often, some of us here do... What quality of players do Madagascar, Benin republic, and Zimbabwe have compared to Nigeria?

This is a poorly coached team of lazy professionals against a well coached team of motivated, hungry, and focused "nobodies".

Litmus:


Mony before honour, huh. But ordinary Nigerians encouraged this attitude. The soldiers too are being encouraged to put benefits first before country and honour. Nigeria is not worth dying for people keep telling them.

fonzie2u:
They are likely to face Egypt in next round,na die b dat

einsteine:
So Nigeria vs Ghana is the likely second round match.

Kenturkey048:
that's the extent to which our leaders have sacrileged the nation...no patriotism amongst citizens...everybody want compensation....

kd10:
My brother the way out of this mess is a Good Local Coach with the same level of support being given to this white messiah conspiracy that Amaju Pinnick and his gang foist on us , The spirit of Big Boss Stephen Okechukwu Keshi will continue to hunt Amaju Pinnick and his rented Sports journalist gang's till his Administration ends with his clueless coach that doesn't know his starting 11 players in a competition , keep chopping and changing player's with faulty substation of players. How can he explain his team two nil loss to Madagascar of all people. Will he be sacked after this afcon tournament to make way for a better Local Coach to prepare Super Eagle for Qatar 2022 World Cup Qualifier? I doubt very much so far Amaju is still charge of NFF. Meanwhile it's important for all us to bear in mind the no nation has ever win the world cup with a foreign Coach till date.. Too bad we have sink this low going in to the knock out stages. Which way Nigeria Football?

otokx:


seconded, let us get the Moroccan coach?
