      Does Ghana have to bribe nigeria before beating them in footbal? Foul mouth and alegations does not win footbal.

  • Glory 2 years ago

    Chiamaka Madu, a true baller. Only hope others are of same quality. Just can’t wait for a totally new NFF set up. Amaju and co have done their best but sadly not good enough. We try some others.

  • Some of the guys here looks like Japa people, I just hope this is not an opportunity to do do shaaaa.

    Andy okpe

    Akuneto/Martins combo mouth watering but the midfield is of utmost interest personally.

  • Nigeria will beat ghana as usual.
