And it's still enough to win Serie A. Old legs isn't winning the CL, which is what they want most.

Good win. Almost washes the stench off the ladies losing to Germany

Even Zim held Egypt to just 1 goal. African soccer is improving.

Notes from this match.

• Onuachu should not be starting. Only bring him in fo end of game route 1 football type situations. Igahlo is far more mobile. I do feel like Igahlo's finishing is suspect especially after last WC.
• Mikel should not be playing as a CAM. We looked so much better with Musa on the wing and Iwobi supporting in the 10 role
• Good work from Chukwueze. I'd like to see more from him. Also would like to see Onyekuru get some runs in.
• We need to sort out our GK. Akpeyi is a Liability with a capital L

Good first win. We'll start finding our feet as the tourney draws on.

Still pissed that we conceded to Tahiti in 2013 Confederation Cup

This is really the GOAT sport.

That is not anywhere near the team that’s gonna play when we hit the knockouts so I don’t mind fringe players getting a game as long as we pick up the W but Uzoho is the clear number 1 and there’s no need to be messing about when it comes to the keeper, Daniel is a liability and he’s shown this long before today, that was my only real beef with the team selection.
