I don't know why I feel a bit uneasy about this game. I would've loved it if Tunisia players were all fit and not infected with COVID.

I kind of feel we'll underrate them for this and they'll punish us in the end. I do hope I'm wrong.

Go_super_eagles!

Modified - I wasn't wrong after all, my feelings never lie!

You want to confirm if Nigeria qualified for the last 16 by fluke LMAO!!

This is a proof that most of we Nairalanders only watch “Livescores”.

Says who? It's like you never know say football is filled with suprises. After today match we''ll deliberate more on this!

Very portable Stade.

GodHelpMe1:
I'm scared for the super eagles, this Tunisia team is the worst draw we could possibly get considering our place at the table. Though Tunis has been a shadow of themselves in this competition.

Latest fifa ranking:

If we beat Tunisia, I would agree our boys are good contenders for the trophy on the grounds that they are above us in Fifa Ranking. Especially if we beat them without conceding like Gambia did or even better than Gambia. I also tip Gambia to dismiss Guinea.
I said this earlier.

IT'S coming HOME,,,

Let's go there

Lol
This is funny,
In as much as we know our boys are having a very good competition so far,
In as much they are playing the best football in the recent history of our Super Eagles in the last 10 years.
Don't let us be too overconfident please,
Let's take it one step at a time,
One game at a time.

Even all of us @[b][/b], wey be say our over positivity is so high, high, high, hyper-high,
Even though they have given us the Award of the Most Patriotic Nairalanders for the past 5 years, still counting.... we can only be optimistic (and maybe make predictions) about progressing each round till we get the Trophy.

But Oga Robosky02, the way you worded that is too much nah, Tunisia no be small pikins too for dis ogberaga matter.
We never even play d match, u don dey talk say Nigeria will meet the winner of Burkina Faso vs Gabon in the Quater Finals!!!

Haba, pride goes before a fall you know?
Let's keep the positive spirit, but try not to sound too proud biko.

Football is not like that at all,
Footballis so unpredictable,
We remembered a game of Barcelona, in the days of Messi, Xavier, Iniesta, Etoo etc, against the 19th position club on the table that year, Barca hit the woodwork/Goalpost 17times!!!
And it was just the only attacking threat the opponent got that hit the hand of Puyol, resulted in a penalty, and Barca lost 0-1 that day!!
So there are some bad days in football, that at the end you won't just be able to explain it,
You will just be looking around that 'what just happened '?!?!

So let's support our boys, but don't let us count our eggs before they are hatched please.
It sounds like pride.
And God and Fortune doesn't favour proud people.
It's dangerous.

Up SUPER EAGLES OF NIGERIA,
Bring the Trophy home guys.
We gat your back.
One Love.

On that occasion, an early Odion Ighalo goal was enough to give Nigeria the victory.
