What is fluid about Nigeria?

To me, we played better today than in the game against Cameroon. Ighalo not showing up was the drawback.

Omeruo defensive General
I laff in Swahili
make mbappe, Messi or Ronaldo catch d fraud first

Ighalo bleeped up. He was very poor and lacked pace to press. Iwobi, chukwueze and Collins were awesome. The revelation in the tournament is awaziem. The Bobo have really impressed me

darkelf:


You are right.

It is really painful.

But I think Musa delivered 1 or 2 quality crosses today but Ighalo didn't position himself well

Congratulations to all Nigerians!

Super Eagles go for Gold. 2 matches away to Glory!

phamarsenal:
Iwobi was miles ahead of him today oo...dem no b mate abeg

Cc Irongalaxy
come out, that we may behold your agony

Mickael2:


No Sir, Musa did that was why his poor decision making was easily noted. Almost 80% of our attack went through his flank not the other side

i will wait for a professional body to nominate their man of the match ,,, but i doubt if its not Chukwueze

Danielnino00:
I'm patiently waiting for the roadside analysts who will come and tell us that we were lucky today...that Ivory Coast/Algeria is the real test

whoever wins between Nigeria and CIV/Algeria gonna win the cup

Odunayaw:
And mbappe too

Tau is better than Chukwueze

Didn't you see the game.

Hian

Chei. On Sunday Nigeria will be the away side and will adorn that bad luck jersey again!

Rohr has stepped up....his substitutions are becoming very apt,timely and effective unlike that that world cup late sub...

Moses Simon is better than Musa in taking corner kicks...twice we have scored from his corner kicks in this AFCON

I was thinking that Ndidi would do a job on Tao...lo and behold our new bundesliga 1 entrant Collins step in....

Yet again...we have not really switched on the full throttle in this AFCON...We stepped up a bit against Cameroon but not yet...

Congratulations...Rohr is building a solid team...our bench is deep,full of depth and deeply deep

The team is getting better as they progress in the tournament. Where are the cry babies and nay sayers? Prophets of doom

Taliban:


To me, Musa's case was pretty obvious, if he had the opportunities he had on the right wing, he would have taken some shorts and bothered the keeper if he doesn't score and I believe his final balls or crosses would have been better. Don't forget musa was at some point record highest goal scorer in the Nigerian league. he actually started off as a striker and one thing I know is, he can shoot with his right foot but the left one. i don over talk am ready. Anyway the end justifies the means, we won and that's all that matters.

Truly we won and I'm happy that at least we shut those loudmouths but something in me wasn't satisfied. We could have wrapped up the game long before they equalized.

Odunayaw:
while this pic was loading I was expecting some original Chukwueze

But kai, that control he made today!! The commentator (bias janjawid ) had to complement him

This summarises his class today.... His Villarreal celebration after he scored.

Jarus:
Nigeria meets the winner between Algeria and CIV im the semis.

I prefer to meet CIV. I fear North Africans.

the Algerian team is too complete , they play very compact football from the backline to the attack ... even their Coach is always on his feet ....

Hahahahahahahaha! Did tau play today?

What did we not endure
"This would be our first real test The front 3 of SA would take us to boarding school Those quick interchanges will leave the midfield for dead Lorch? He's from Asgard Akpeyi? They know him well, he'd eat grass Baxter? He's a genius, Rohr should be doing SIWES from him"

To the naysayers..... ♪No wailers no cry♪

Am not a fan of rhor but, I dont seem to get if he is tactically savvy or just extremely lucky. It worked tonight, and against cameroon let's not forget it didn't work against Madagascar. Only time will tell, fingers still crossed and waiting for the next game.

Apart from Neimar and Gustav/Afobear (of blessed memory), I don't think anybody doubted the SE today except for the "Rohr don't dey Bleep up" (2nd half) crew

forgiveness:


The South Africans attacked through the right flank 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 defensive and also attack. 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 South Africa's tactics of getting the ball through Collin's wing.

You can see after Simon Moses came on he did the job very well.

It was all about tactics.

Guy you have football sense too much.

Remember the name!

But the SA said he had Akpeyis nudes and would demolish us

Nonsense fans

Rohr got his tactical set up right today. SA were at the risk of going a man down. I didn't fancy the sub of Moses at first but on a second thought SA were attacking down the right with increased intensity so he needed to stifle them. SA could have easily gone a man down if the game extended to extra time.
The team needs to be more clinical in this crucial stage. congrats Naija

Rohr got his tactics spot on

This time whatever jersey we wear will give us good luck. we wore green when we demolished Mali in 2013 afcon. we wore green even when we beat the great drogba, toure brothers, chieck tiote (rip) and green again when we won that tournament. So relax even if we are naked, we shall win by God's Grace.

How South African fans be looking like when asked to repeat all their boasts and chest-beatings before the match....

Nobody is a prophet of doom or crybaby, we all want the team to win. Most of us here cried and pleaded for Chukwueze to start ahead of Simon, now we all see the rewards.

Everyone here is for victory. We just want the gaffer to use the right pegs at the right time like he did today.

Great game.

To the naysayers..... ♪No wailers no cry♪

They may have been a test but you see:

If you test someone who scores straight A's in Senior school with a common entrance paper. No matter how hard it is, it's expected that he will breeze through.

That's what happened between Super Eagles and South Africa today.

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

you don't switch wingers if the defenders are not giving the problem , you only do that when they re unable to perform their primary assignment ... the defence of SA was compact in the middle .
