With no disrespect to the South African team, I think they are not just ordinary team, this is a team that has been playing together in the same league for years now and almost half of the South African players plays for Mamelodi Sundowns, a very strong team in the South African league and also they have the current African best goal keeper in their team. It’s really a very intense match for the super eagles and if you’re watching the game you’ll notice that the pitch is bad unlike the pitch the super eagles players are used to playing in Europe, they are making so many mistakes and so many rebounds of the ball. It’s an own goal from the Nigerian side and if not that I don’t think the South African team are better than the Nigerian team and to add to it the Super Eagles have managed to pull one goal back before halftime time to keep the score level at 1:1, courtesy of Calvin Bassey header. The second half promises to be more exciting as the super eagles will be pushing to win the game in order to stand a better chance of qualifying for the FIFA World Cup next year.

You that field South Africa chosed for that match was a deliberate decision by the South Africa FA. They knew that if they take the super eagles to a good field that they will struggle to play the eagles so they just want to frustrate the Nigerian side by taking them to a field that's not good. Imagine the way the super eagles managed to play them in that bad field. It was a tactical move from the Southie people but am proud of the super eagles for balling them and getting a draw for this match. The fight for the world cup place continues.
