Senegal took that game personally and proved to them that Afcon is no small competition. I expect nore during the world Cup we have a lot to prove making it to around the semi-finals or quarter finals will add respect to the African Cup of Nation.

Ironically, Senegal got a draw few days ago against Ireland then knocked England by 3 goals to one. I am aware that these games are friendlies but it shows at the same time the instability of the English team.

Yes but it also shows the Senegal team were still solid though England were not in their best but this is a good for momentum for primary 5

Unfortunately Nigeria is still in a tough condition of not qualifying in another world Cup again which is totally disappointing. We ought to be doing well to make names for Africa but unfortunately I can't depend on my Nation for this, I think Morocco or Senegal will do much better.

Nigeria lost a lot of its power comparing to the old good days even though they have good players playing in Europe. Right now I don't see them progressing a lot if ever they could qualify to FIFA World Cup.
Morocco, Egypt, Senegal might have better accomplishments than Nigeria.

Unfortunately the Nigeria super Eagles are like the England male squad, both having excellent squad but can't work really well together as a team, although we're in a more disappointing state than the England team.
We need to do better if we want to come back to our best and win National trophies then stand tall as the African giants indeed.
