WC will lose its thrill if my country is not fully represented
It's not very often you get to see Nigerians coming to watch our national team with a face so full of a sense of superiority, joy and high expectations. History has often shown that the Super Eagles of Nigeria have a knack for fumbling when they are supposed to get things right.
For example, we have a fairly decent squad and we were one of the favourites to win AFCON which was played in January 2022. But! One thing led to another, the national team left many people disappointed after their crappy performance against Tunisia in the Round of 16. It was a sad day for the fans - both the travelling fanbase and those of us that watched from the comfort of our home.
Another opportunity to shine
This international break presents World Cup Qualification fixtures and Nigeria is paired against Ghana. The first leg was already played last Saturday and it was a terrific game. Nigeria was away to Ghana for that and the odds were still in their favour because of the quality of players in our national team.
Unfortunately, that game ended as a goalless draw. During halftime, the majority of the pundits for sky sports were still rooting for Nigeria to win, but that didn't make a difference. The show of brilliance from the Black Stars of Ghana made Nigerians toothless in the final third.
Now, we have one more chance to secure a ticket to Qatar 2022. The second leg will be played today by 18:00 WAT. The Ghanaians landed in Abuja yesterday and they have been training hard for the game ahead.
What to expect from this game
This is the type of game I prefer to call a HIT or MISS kinda game. Any team that slips will lose their chance of going to the World Cup. Unfortunately, both teams can't go and the mistake that will cost one team will most likely come from one unlucky player. Hehe
I can't even imagine how gutted the person will feel. I just wish the super Eagles of Nigeria will bring their A-game to the pitch and get the work done. World Cup will surely lose its vibe if my Country is not fully represented.
Thanks For Not Missing Any Full-stop Or Comma

Hehe, your topic very bold.
But yeah Nigeria brings something unique. I hope Amunike takes the team to the WC.
However, today is the big day and I hope it turns out well for the Naija boyz.
Hahah... The topic really had to be BOLD because I don't want to hear stories. Hehe.
These lads need to wake up and secure that ticket to Qatar ✅
Well you now see the reason for tone of my comment. I never really believed in Eguavoen.
So much corruption in the whole matter.
Sad.
Hahah... Trust me, I remembered your Comment. Hahah.
Yesterday was not funny at all. Imagine Ghana dusting us in our own backyard. Wonders shall never end. Hehe. !PIZZA
Thanks for tip though.
The way we have been losing possessions and won't even run after it is shocking. Presently watching the second leg now and time is ticking fast. We need to add urgency to our game. I hope we win.
What I'm seeing on the pitch is too disappointing. They are on the losing end and they are still not pushing as much as you would expect.
Osimeh is the standout played at the moment. I really hope we qualify 🙆♂️
I didn't sense their urgency and I already resigned in my mind that we would lose and we did. Everything is wrong with that team; tactically, mentality...even opportunities. It's shameful.
This shows the difference between club football and national football especially when it's African teams.
Imagine Nigerian Super Eagle being on the losing end and still wasting time on the ball in addition to playing multiple back passes.
It's unbelievable.
I was fuming. No sense of urgency at all.
