I’m shocked too. But I think South Africa may not have brought their ‘A’ team to Accra because they deem the African Games as a B-list competition

So I just did my research. Both South African teams pulled out as they deemed the pitch unsafe

No South Africa? I'm quite shocked. I thought they were powerhouses in this sport?

Kog45:
Ha Bright Osayi Samuel

Turkish passion for football is something else man!

PDPGuy:
Not related to footie, but Nigeria is only one medal away from becoming the first country to achieve 300 medals in the Athletics event of the Africa Games..

This is good. Hopefully this translates to good outcomes at the Paris Olympics. Our athletes are pushing their limits despite the paucity of support and funding.

TheLoneCitizen:
Iwobi's stamina 🔥

Osimhen tried. He has already reached the ceiling with Napoli. It's time for him to go.

Samueltemi337:
Anytime you do the reporting osimhen nor dey score
Just leave am for me to dey do the reporting from now on

MetalJigsaw:
In how many games?

He now has 11 goals in 15 matches

I don't even wanna imagine this version of Osimhen back in France. It'll just be too easy.

Nigeria Vs Argentina Friendly off for the Second time. Costa Rica to replace Nigeria as promoter finding it difficult to get visas for the Nigerian delegation.

Lmao wow

By the time the 2025 AFCON qualification campaign ends, the Super Eagles would have played a record 15 competitive matches, and 16 matches overall in a calendar year…

If we win all of our WC and AFCON qualifiers matches, we could potentially make another huge leap in the rankings. The UEFA and CONCAFAF teams are doing this with their nation's leagues matches.

Hopefully the ICT won't be used for drug smuggling

Victor Eletu on the bench in av milan vs rennes. Hope he plays today

Nice! Any news on Akansanmiro?

Nigerian basketball federation is such an eyesore. Musa Kida has dragged this country's name through the mud.

ChrisKels:
The over all best player of the tournament not considered in the team of the tournament? Doesn’t make sense to me

It's sofascore, not the official CAF page so it's meaningless

If we address some of the changes that many of you have briliantly mooted on this forum in due time, we can make a Senegal-esque comeback and win the next edition. It is totally possible with this squad.

Amedino99:
It really says alot about the quality of football in afcon if jpes's negative/defensive football could give us the highest number of big chances created. No wonder we always fall in the world stage.

This is some food for thought.

Joezinho:
African footballer of the year Dey score one goal for tourney una dey say he get aura blah blah bullshiiiiitttt!!!

Mofo meets deadbeat teams and scores hat tricks. And some people here are saying he’s better than Yekini. SMH.

This defeat hurts.

Not for me. I'll admit that I severely underrated this team based on our pre tournament record, so this finals run exceeded my expectations

ChrisKels:
At the end, football won against anti football

Gbam.

When Mourinho said Peseiro is his best friend, I knew it was finished . Parking bus no dey work in Africa abeg

Peseiro must stay. We need continuity.

The coach surely got his tactics wrong, but is it worth it to get rid of him? Do we go all the way back to square one again?

Oh well. When you sit back, this happens. Too bad lmao. Parking the bus just never works lol.

komekn:
It's now we are attacking extra time

We parked the bus for 90 minutes we defeated ourselves with this formation

That's what I'm saying . Why did the coach purposely put them into a defensive formation?

So we sit back all match and decide to attack in the last few minutes?

How can you sit back and play so defensively all match?

See what happened! How can a defense absorb so much pressure.

We are not playing well at all. We are letting them walk all over us!

Yikes. We are gonna lose playing like that. I'm starting to have a bad feeling

We will lose if we keep sitting back.

There you go. I called it. We've been sitting back all night.

We are going to concede soon. We have been on the back foot all match
