This country called Nigeria doesn’t know she’s big. How can you be comparing yourself to that small and rude country?
Ghana my foot
Football is not by size let’s not be ignorant by allowing ourselves to be carnal in our utterance because of the attitude of some carnal Ghanaians. It will make more sense if we can avoid going into debates with them and focus on Sports instead of insulting them and causing our downfall in return. The devil is behind their motives to make us talk back and expose ourselves to destruction last week was a bad one for Nigeria Sports and seeing how Anti Nigerians celebrated just gave me the insight of what’s at play.
Ghana and Nigeria match in Soccer is never an easy game from day one, Ghanaians believe seniority cos of age over the two countries on independence..(at a point they once have upper hand again us in soccer)
Ghanaians believe Do or Die against any Nigerian team, even local monkey post on street, which we normally play with them here in Accra were I base..
