jihday:
next match they'll say our first real test again

Those dunces

Mickael2:


Nawa oh. Recall that Ndidi almost scored from one of Musa's corner kicks? It wasn't as if our corners had been poor all along. So he brought him in to come and take a corner kick? Lol

sir moses, drive down the left flank and his initial cross with his left into the box gave us the corner kick in the first instance, so it's not as if Moses didn't contribute to the play. Musa was explosive, left his marker for dead time and again but the end product was zilch.

not that I blame him but I don't think the left wing is the best for him to be honest. he will be very good in a front two set up or he should be played on the right wing. That's how I see it.

Who run don help for this afcon ?

Na so people go dey criticize rohr changes till e go win the cup

Your wahala too much.

He has a right to criticize now. Whether he is right or not

Just be happy today. No follow anybody fight today. You hear?

Toylove:
Tau that is better than iwobi

And mbappe too

safarigirl:
The way wey some people change mouth sha.....from Rohr did good to switch Iwobi and Chukwueze, to Rohr is doing everything to lose.

people here dey shock me
lol

Toylove:

COOL10:
.

Lol. Probably. He does know how to take em corner kicks. Remember the goal against Guinea

That is not related to his substitution na. In fact I can almost swear that the South African fullback must have thanked God that our coach subbed out Musa, IMHO that was a poor coaching decision, if the SA keeper didn't do an Akpeyi we would have still been playing now, it is not as of the corner was fantastic it was a poor one that the keeper should be clearing easily

semid4lyfe:
We played a very controlled and measured game

Launched counter attacks at will and could have scored 3 goals if our decision making and finishing was better.

Chukwueze is a baller, repeat after me.

Chukwueze is a baller.

I'm happy we won but it still wasn't a good sub. Thank God Bafana went to sleep and this didn't go to extra time.

Rohr got his selection right today. His substitutions were spit on. Some of our family members say Rohr no good. Make we dey manage am dey go. NEPA off light for Ighalo today. Congrats Family.

All our wingers (Musa, Moses and even Chukwueze) are poor crossers.

Musa provided our best attacking threats. He believed so much in his speed and it worked well. But his final ball was poor. I will still rate him 6/10.

Sportilitica:
At a stage Samu was missing and Musa did all the running.

Una don come, missing where??, he go commot for pitch go buy cigar.
Person wey dey run without direction, na football be that??.
Musa should please try apply some senses into his style, by now he should have been a deadly player like mane.

Sportilitica:
I heard about the Tau guy so I decided to watch him play today. I am still looking for him to be honest. I thought they saud their front 3 were so dangerous. Their defenders and the furman guy played the game.

Their defence tried but Ighalo made things too easy.

Ighalo positioning today was whack. I expected him to do better with the pass from Chukwueze. He lost almost all his Ariel duels and gave one assist to South Africa

jihday:
another brave and brilliant call from Rhor

People will not see this one o.
Collins kept the so called Tau dude out of the game.
Nice tactics by Rohr

Starboytwo:

It's all going down there tonight

Should I list how many corner kicks Musa got? Forget the win, that sub was poor and everybody can attest to that

Been awhile I saw Nigerian team so compact with disciplined defence like today.
Big huge kudos to Rohr for the tactical setup.
But SA owe Nigeria a 2-0 bashing which they must collect in Jo'burg
Congrats to our boys.
I still maintain my stand: Rohr should be kept to help us build a grand team

I still don't get why Musa and Chuks can't switch wings like Vic Mo and Mo Simon used to do then. I know Musa tormented his marker today but it was so glaring he doesn't trust his left foot, not today e start o, and the few times he trusted the foot, na cross to nobody he delivered.

Someone said if only Xenophobic attacks were permitted in the game, SA could've won comfortably


Ribs dey pain me abeg

We won and that is the most important thing. Now a question for the house.
What if Rohr had switched our wingers?

It was a good sub

maybe if onyekuru comes on and we lost it will be a good sub

Egyptian fans are possibly among the happiest people right now....

Who noticed collins stopped overlapping and stayed behind .. I guess he was the man on percy tau ..that was why aina didn't play ... Aina is more on the offensive ..... Aweziem is still solid as ever ...


Village people tie ighalo today o ..

Spot on with your comments (fellow awoites) except the bolded, his final balls were atrocious, not once not twice!!

But he tormented that LB too much. That guy will be afraid of anyone bearing Musa

Simple analysis here and no complaints whatsoever, well except for musa to be selfish and curl some sometimes...

All the super eagles player 8/10 all of them

Akpeyi very composed

Etebo definitely not a carpenter

Collins- haaaa better player

Omeruo- future skipper

Awaziem- if I have money I'd give him, I swear

Ndidi - best df in the competition

Ighalo- damn that last ball from chukwueze was too much, wished he had scored

Musa - Hmmm baba why na, as you play reach ehn, try dey use ur left cross na, and hit some shots for us abeg...good game....very very good...one word, Nightmare

Samu - hmmmm starboy...finish.

Ekong- just make a wish for anything in this world....but your passing ehn He get coma small

Iwobi- well you can't be family with okocha and not Sabi ball...

Moses- I hope you guys can cut him some little slack...

Balogun- even if he nod just one ball, I'm ready to give him 8 just like every one....

Gernot rohr 8/10

Super eagles fan 10/10....

edi287:

It wasn't a good switch. We needed someone to make runs in behind something Moses Simon doesn't do.

The South Africans attacked through the right wing because they noticed Ahmed was not helping Collins and succeeded in getting a goal as a result of that.

What Rohr needed to do was to bring in a player to support Collins defensively and also attack though he ought to have done that before the equaliser hence the need to introduce Simon.

I don't think Onyekuru was the best option to nullify the South African's tactics of getting the ball through Collin's wing.

You can see after Simon Moses came on he did the job very well and there was balance.

It was all about tactics.

I really felt he could have had a go at goal

Oga mi, I was taught to learn not to use absolute terms, an example is everybody, am I and the other many guys saying it was a good sub spirits

I do not know if the coach makes the decision about that but you are right, that's something they should work on badly. Musa on the other side would have run that guy ragged and his final balls would have been a lot better, but in this case he had to cut back time and time again spoiling his flow, maybe they should really switch their wings and let that Musa guy do his thing
