Angola have scored 9 goals so far. They won't be easy pushovers
I'd keep him if he wins it. He's obviously doing something right.The worse thing that can happen is that Peseiro stays on after a trophy win. He should be thanked for... whatever he has been doing, and should be moved on. Get someone more serious in for the WC qualifiers
you jinxed them! still plenty of time yet thoughTense game. Hope Angola can pull the upset
Nigeria is comfortably stronger. There’s hope thoughyou jinxed them! still plenty of time yet though
Don’t know much about Peseiro adex, but this is probably the most “united” (not mufc as mine is meant as a compliment ) and hard working I’ve seen the eagles in a long time. Why do you dislike him?The worse thing that can happen is that Peseiro stays on after a trophy win. He should be thanked for... whatever he has been doing, and should be moved on.

Goodbye Angola. Think anyone will find it hard to stop this Nigerian side. Barely looked like conceding in their last few games.Tense game. Hope Angola can pull the upset
They have the strongest squad by far.Goodbye Angola. Think anyone will find it hard to stop this Nigerian side. Barely looked like conceding in their last few games.
I agree. Get someone better to build on from here. Need someone with a sharper tactical eye.The worse thing that can happen is that Peseiro stays on after a trophy win. He should be thanked for... whatever he has been doing, and should be moved on. Get someone more serious in for the WC qualifiers
Peseiro’s in game management leaves a lot to be desired. He’s slow with subs and often subs the wrong players in at the wrong time.Don’t know much about Peseiro adex, but this is probably the most “united” (not mufc as mine is meant as a compliment ) and hard working I’ve seen the eagles in a long time.

Some of his game management wasn't great - Osimhen could barely move from the 75th minute or so but subbing Aribo for Iwobi was the correct option. He brought on Alhassan Yusuf already to play alongside Onyeka so that was two DM's. He also brought on an extra centre-back. Absolutely no need for a third DM. Aribo was brought on as a like-for-like to provide composure on the ball with Iwobi tiring.I agree. Get someone better to build on from here. Need someone with a sharper tactical eye.

No reason for Joe Aribo to be subbed into a match you’re trying to see out when Onyedika, a proper DM, is there
The Nigerian FA stated they would have liked to fire him before the tournament but had to keep him because it would cost too much.They have the strongest squad by far.
Peseiro is a meme coach over here in Portugal for how mediocre he is, so you never know

Thanks both. Like I said I don’t know much about him and haven’t followed afcon qualifiers as closely but I am impressed by Nigeria. Their work rate etc especially - before we even go into their individual quality. They seem the team to beat.I agree. Get someone better to build on from here.

I disagree with the Aribo option. He brought on Yusuf for Iwobi which was fine. Aribo has no business playing in such a tense game, he’s very shaky. I think Yusuf and Onyeka were fine. Onyedika is actually a MF, Aribo is not… but subbing Aribo for Iwobi was the correct option. He brought on Alhassan Yusuf already to play alongside Onyeka so that was two DM's.

I still think we should let him go after this tournament. The results prior to this AFCON were very poor and he insisted to set up the team in that porous 442 even when a blind man could see we’d be better off with a back 3 based on our personnel. There’s also his lack of player/formation rotation for friendlies and dead rubber matches.The Nigerian FA stated they would have liked to fire him before the tournament but had to keep him because it would cost too much.
Fixed for yaNIGERIANAIJA NO DEY CARRY LAST
Honestly, this is the first time I can say with confidence that we actually look like winning something
They actually stated this?The Nigerian FA stated they would have liked to fire him before the tournament but had to keep him because it would cost too much.
They seem to have 9 lives in this tournament but now this red card could be the killerWhat happened to Ivory Coast? Getting outplayed at home against Mali.
I'm sick of them
That was shocking.Mali not taking this defeat well, players genuinely wanting to attack the ref here.
Pretty sure they will be.Shameful scenes. Some significant suspensions need to be issued after this.

They won a corner and he blew for FT.Surprised he only gave out 1 red for all that
I don't even know what Mali were moaning about? Blowing the whistle too early ?
