A lot can happen in next 5 games.

It's cheap if it's a smart TV. My 65inch Hisense that I bought last 2years for 450k is now about 1.1-1.2milion(which is about $750 now)

I’m only bothered about SA, the rest will drop plenty points we just need to win all our games and I think we’ll be fine
Well said ,our obstacle is SA . We dropped valuable points against Lesotho and Zimbabwe ( 6points ) by now we should have 12points . Hopefully SA and Benin will play draw

Exactly my point

But they said he played only 15mins

Let's give him benefit of doubt. He may yet come good
There's no point in breaking out alone by Tolu Arokodare and lose the ball when we are 0-2 up and easing the game out....

Y'all only see negative part, what about the positive part. What about the 3 good long balls he won, with his height. I counted 3... He is not sluggish or slow but he put body for ball and fight...

Infact I'm highly impressed with Tolu Arokodare today... More impressive than Boniface has ever been in Eagles.

Also, this is is Debut...

Mehn, y'all forget about Dessers. He is not in the team for a reason..

Nig vs Zim(9ja to win) 9pts
Rwa v Les(Rwa played us the kind of football that can beat an average Lesotho team, so i see them winning) 10pts
Ben v SA(this game, gernot will hugely prove a point, to draw this match, they are yet to lose a game on that stadium in this qualifiers so i will predict a draw)
SA 11
Rwa 10
Nig 9
Ben 9
Les 5
Zim 3

september fixtures(MD 7)
Nig vs Rwa
Les vs SA
Ben vs Zim

MD 8
SA v Nig(this where we might end up winning or drawing SA)

Ben v Les
Wish SA won't win any of there next 2 matches away, while we wins ours. E go too sweet mhen. Even if they have to draw their next 2 matches no problem

Attitude probably. It's been 10 games and the attitude of Osimhen and Lookman continues to stand out in attack. If we can have just 2 more of such, it would be beast mode.


I'll say the tactics today was out overall. It didn't click.

Two players that fit the bill are Elijah Adebayo of Luton Town and Akor Adams of Sevilla FC.

Dessers, Moffi, Onuachu, Arokodare, Orban & Umar, I no rate them like that.

If we win our next two games. The decider will be the crunching game versus South Africa in South Africa. I be leave we can beat SA on their own turf
Let's pray for Benin to win South Africa oo. If we win and Benin wins, the top leaders will be on 9, 10, 11 points or Benin should draw. Then it will 9,9,11.

Please I have a question

How many countries are qualifying from each group or the WC?
Top team qualifiés automatically and some best 2nd placéd team would play in a playoff tournament I think with some Asian countries.

Wilfred Ndidi kicking that guy back for Osimhen was one of the best moments in modern day Nigerian football. That was the play of the match, immediate Get Back cheesy

go back to afcon and watch Mali vs SA, you go know say this Eric Chelle no send your papa….Let him catch that hugo broos and SA again, them you guys will know that we have seen another big boss in the shape Stephen Keshi…lets remove sentiment and pride aside, there are some unknown name coaches we need to coach super eagles
you see that Angolan coach
you see that cape verdean coach
you see TomSanfiet of Mali
and maybe hugo broos
if these coaches have the opportunity to lead high profile african teams like Nigeria, Ghana,CIv,Algeria,to the world cup tourney, africa, walai Africa will be beastly

From August 2025, Awoniyi needs to fight back to Nottingham forest’s starting line up else he won’t be invited for AFCON & World Cup if we qualify

Tolu was really good with his height, I love how he was making used of his height to bring down long balls using his chest... Things that players like Onuachu and Sadiq lacks.

Some person's might be surprised that it was the coach instruction to calm down the match and Tolu was just playing to instructions.

The Tolu that I have watched for Genk this season is not as lazy as Sodiq and Onuachu

at all... I've never seen him before. When he came in I focused on him and I gave the mark right there at the viewing center....

I believe a legit and genuine back up is HIM.

Theres no point being surprised... Even if you are coaching your street team and such situation, that is the right call... Remove your Main guy and calm the game out. 🤷

chief in the modern soccer game you got to be at least good at multiple positions on the pitch.

Sugarboyy:

If not for Peseiro and Finidi, what would we be looking for in the position we are now? Imagine they played 4 games , drew 3 and lost one, they won none. Ordinarily these teams, Rwanda, Lesotho and Zimbabwe are supposed to be beating home and away and that's what will happen with this new coach and the spirit he has brought to the team. There is no way SA can beat Benin away, I'm very sure. I won't even be surprised if Benin beats them
i tell you. Chai. What a fix.

Ppu don’t knw aw difficult dis match was considering factors in it.chelle really tried in dis one…1 his first official game 2 A wcq (away must win game;dis two alone can put any manager and his team into immense pressure
