Let's be honest here, Chuks introduction had no effect on the 2 Goals scored. He was tamed prior to the Goals and couldn't have a successful Dribble. Also, he wasn't tracking back enough to cover up for Awaziem, which caused Awaziem to bag a yellow Card. Mandjeck was subbed off for Anguissa because he's on yellow card and might be red-carded if he committed more Fouls which are so likely in the Game. Chuks became lively after the 2 Goals. He did wonderfully well and was outstanding in the latter part of the Game. Do I want him start ahead of Moses against South Africa? tactically NO! If our RB is Tyrone, even Shehu, I wouldn't mind. I will still start Moses ahead of him, but will definitely play him in the Match. I was craving for the Inclusion of Osimhen, but at this Juncture, Ighalo has my full support. We are in the Quarter Final, thus we need to play familiar Faces than testing a new Player at this Stage of the Tournament. However, I wouldn't mind Osimhen to be a direct Sub for Igbalo. In the next Match, I will go again with the same Lineup, coz we have no other choice at the moment. I can't risk playing unfit Players as a Coach at this Stage. Tactically, I wish Rohr can switch to 3 - 5 - 2 Formation, with the same Lineup. Backline should be Awaziem, Ekong and Omeruo. Wingbacks should be Moses and Aina. Then a Pivot of Ndidi and Etebo as DMs with Iwobi playing as an AM. Musa as a SS and Ighalo leading the Line. Best of Luck to the Eagles against Bafana Bafana. Note: this is strictly personal Opinions/Observations, any contrary view is welcomed. Everyone is free to critique or fault my Submissions, but pls in a civil Manner. 11 Likes

Impressive victory against a physical, skillfull and defensively solid Cameroun team. I'll opine that we won not because of Rohr's technical brilliance but naivety and poor game management from Clarence Seedorf and the Camerounian players. At 2-1 up, Cameroun just needed to adopt the Madagascar template. . .manage the game by sitting back, doubling down, committing more to defense, picking their passes & attacks and hitting on the counter. I was surprised when the 2nd half resumed and Cameroun came all gung-ho looking for a 3rd goal. Immediately, I saw this approach, I was happy and said to myself, 'we fit equalise and win this game". Playing an open game, pressing and committing men forward against the present Super Eagles is suicidal. African teams that have beaten us in recent times have done it on the back foot. Think South Africa & Madagascar. Clarence Seedorf is a brave coach but he needs to know when to adopt attacking and defensive tactics. Now back to the Super Eagles. . . .Despite the victory, I dare say the best game we've played in this tournament was against Guinea. In fact, Nigeria-Guinea is the best game play I've seen from the team in a long while. Still, I'll take a victory anyhow it comes. Congrats to the Super Eagles, Nigerians and Nigeria. 14 Likes 2 Shares |

TheSuperNerd: They give the lame excuse that Simon helps the defense, buh from the bolded Chuks offered the best form of defense, "attack". He did this by drawing players out of position to give Awaziem room for forays, and this(act of drawing players out) automatically created pocket of spaces behind the Plantainians backline for Ighalo and Musa to pounce. 1 Like |

''The question is easy to answer, you know when you have some offensive players like Oyongo, the left-back from Cameroon, who is coming forward all the time and you have an offensive strong player like Chukwueze but defensively not so good like Simon Moses, who plays in his club a more defensive position because they play 3-5-2. ''He's playing on the right or the left side, so we decided to start like this to have stability in the team and to bring in Chukwueze in the good moment. He came in after 16 minutes in the second half.

Oasis007: The bolded sums it up, bkus he left Awaziem to do his job, while he focused on pegging back Onyongo who was having a great game surging forward prior Chucks introduction, this forced Bassogog to track back, hence living Awaziem with a layout to put in that delicious cross. Thanks for pointing that out. When Simon was there Onyongo and Bassogog were taking turns raping our RB and RW, but the introduction of Chucks forced Onyongo to retreat living Bassogog at the mercy of Awaziem. Awaziem played better with Chucks ahead of him. Chucks changed the game. KPOM 11 Likes |

ChrisKels: ![]() Do you recall it was Njie playing on the LW for Cameroon before their first Goal?! Njie was silent, squeezed off the Game by the Combo of Awaziem and Simon. A tweak in the Tactics by Seedorf worked for them later in the Match, cos Njie was moved to the Right Wing. 2 Likes |

Oasis007: From the first paragraph, what was needed to stop Onyongo from coming forward was a daring winger not a defensive one. Chuks came in and Onyongo stopped the forward movements, the the threat Onyongo was posing got nullified instantly. With a defensive winger, Onyongo was always in our own half hence, taking the fight to our dormot, but Chucks came in, and sent him back to his own half, and that gave us the Victory. KPOM 9 Likes |

And you people should try not to paint one player bad to praise another.....I didn't see a bad player yesterday, well except for the 2 goals which I would blame omeruo for... Simon Moses has been one of our strongest performer in this Afcon, saying anything contrary is blasphemous....he has continually put up a very brave defensive display for the Super Eagles, I don't know if any of you guys ever play football, but if you wanna know how valuable Simon is, kindly call awaziem and ask him about Simon.....that guy is any right backs dream..... But like I said yesterday, in that match, we don't need to defend much and as such chukwueze was clearly needed, infact if it was onyekuru that came on, we would have still scored because that Cameroon team was not a team to DEFEND against but ATTACK at every opportunity.... Moses Simon great game, Peter Etebo great game, all the super eagles players gave a great fight yesterday....I had a good night sleep....unto South Africa.... 11 Likes |

forgiveness: The way objectivity and rational are thrown to the dogs anytime a favoured player is mentioned, has become a trend here. And we begin to give accolades for nothing. And when you don't join the emotive hallelujah praise singers for thier favoured player you are labelled a HATER. 2 Likes |
