Bawa. Ó ga ó. I did not watch the match. The scores is disappointing. Very discouraging. I’ll wait for comments to know what really happened? It is one thing to lose a match, it is another to play far below par. Was it the weather? Inexperience? Coaching deficiency? Lack of commitment? Or the Mexicans were just to much to handle?
Wen Nigeria best Argentina in friendly 4 1. That means Argentina is not good abi
When did Nigeria defeat Argentina by 4-1 ? Nigeria defeated Argentina 4-2 prior to World Cup in a friendly match, while Argentina later defeated us by 2-1 in the World Cup.Comparing Argentina and Nigeria in the both matches showed that there was no difference,so don’t compare that match with early morning game played today. Mexico came with better players while Home based Super Eagles players were far behind the Mexican. Foreign based Eagles are conspicuously different and better than home based Eagles. You can’t sell what you don’t have. Experience is the best teacher.

Yes we have beaten Argentina by 4 goals to 1. Samson siasia was the head coach. So yes, he is right. This defender I can’t remember his name again(played for West Ham) was their Captain.
