theyre not in same league with the Argentinians
how are there way more Argentines in Africa than Nigerians? disgusting...
What the FUCK is wrong with Nigeria?
cosign...horrible marking on all of the set pieces so far....
Forget the first goal, this game will swing on hustle....The Argentine forwards turn into defenders the moment you get the ball. That is how they dominate... Nigeria has abandoned the passing game and are trying to get a quick strike with long passes. Big mistake...This coach is a fucking waste.. but again this is the same Nigeria that barely survived Zambia..
FUCK NIGERIA HAD THAT!!!!!!!!1
got damn it, missed a perfect chance.
i know that
This game is not too far out. Do not be so defeatist. Nigeria are not hustling, they need to pressure the ball when Argentina has it, as Argentina does when Nigeria has it.
Go ahead and add out supported to that list...this is not the atmosphere I was expecting for an African side playing in the world cup on African soil. This is like Nigeria is playing a friendly at the bombonera

Many scam victims are in the crowd
That is nonsense...
They keep passing to Argentina. Wake up boys.
the pronounciation of the names of the nigerian players by the announcers is killin me right now
It's the same on the BBC
'Orbinn ar'
Nigeria are badly coached. First they should hustle, secondly, they should quit the long passes to one person who is surrounded by 5 men.. They are ceding the mid field by sitting in far away places and expecting the ball to come to them.Nigeria are playing old European football.
Obasi been on the floor for nearly the whole half
This.
All that needs to be said.
Nigeria may not have the talent of Argentina...but damn it they are better than this.
Its easy to be the "worlds best player" at Barcelona when you have the best players in the world at your disposal
Yeah, not like the other candidates with their horrible teammates....
Please.
Why they fired their coach a few months ago, I do not know.. but I talked bout this a while ago. Nigeria, Cameroon, Ivory Coast and South Africa all fired their coaches. Why you would fire the person who has been with you for years I do not know.. what you expect from someone brought in 3 months before the World Cup is another mystery...
Yeah, not like the other candidates with their horrible teammates....
Please.
You know its true too.
Messi is a fraud
Change of heart?
Read what I wrote an hour before this game. I said the game would depend on hustle. I said the Nigerians must not cede the midfield as South Africa did. All these things are true. Fuck the goal, it came from a corner, nothing you can do about it. What I do not like are the tactics of this coach, whose team is not hustling. Anyone who has watched Argentina knows that their MO is opportunism. You have to give them a taste of their own medicine. Challenge their defenders by attacking their ball possession, good things can come out of that. Nigeria gains nothing by letting the ball pass through their front line. Secondly, they need to make more passes in the midfield and use their superior foot speed. This game is not out of reach, and the coach will earn his pay in the second half..
On the goal, Argentina were up to their dirty tricks holding the Nigeria defender out of the way. This was not an accident, the play was designed that way I am sure...But what can you do, the ref missed the call.
But even the short pass completion rate is awful. There is no excuse.................
Is Yakubu on the field? Even if Nigeria are able to use the wings and get crosses..........who is on the end of them? Argentina looking like they have 12 players and Nigeria have 10
Anyways...
Vamos Argentina!
Vamos Argentina!
Lets see. Nigeria played like garbage and made it too the world cup by luck. What other reason is needed. Bottom line obasis not world class, messi is the best in the world. Argentina is expected to win on paper, I thought Nigeria could perform as a team.
