Lol!
So these are the kind of football teams that Dare said should get a called.
Lol…the people that will beat S/L home and away when even a S/L 2nd division club dumped our representative out of the CAF confed cup 2 seasons ago. LMAO.
Anyways, River Utd still have all to play for at home. But at this early stage, like the Enyimba, rangers and julius begger of the early 2000s when we had a better league, teams should get beaten home and away. I remember Enyimba beating FC 04 libreville of Gabon 4-0 home and away. I stand to be corrected though.
Did you watch the match to determine there are no good players in the team, or you basing your sentiments on the score line. what happens when they win the return leg. What has this got to do with dare, didn’t Everton , Nantes, lose today since you want to call out results and your star players featured. So please look for a better excuse instead of waking up some fake statistician
Hahahahaha…people who cannot beat futuro wetin wetin of Equatorial Guinea right there in Mongomo are the ones that would bench people who are playing in the top level of football in Europe…LMAO. Fake financial analyst.
Please spear us all this noise, all your mighty foreign players why are they not winning there games. Please we don’t need any of your fake stats this time around. Guess you must be chima samuel to be getting angry. We know you and your multiple names
