Better stadium with better fans.
It would have been a better result if the world cup qualifier against ghana match was plaid in Uyo stadium.
The 12th man of the team matter a lot. Nigeria wpuld have won the first leg in ghana if not of strong home support from the ghana fans. Ghana players plaid with their full strength as they can’t afford a loss with that kind of motivation in tje stadium.
It’s advisable to move all our important matches to Uyo or Port Harcourt.
Good point. We warned NFF, but those guys were on a self-destructive mission. We’ve paired with S/L again. If not for the FIFA sanction, they would have taken the game to their villages and come out with beer paunches on the practice pitch. Those good-for-nothings.
Bielsa will be a good and cheap option for the SE
