Drugs is something that should not be applauded in sports. You should have been more reserved in your comments. If it was Italian 90 or Mexico 86, I will understand. But on this occasion, the drugs takes away his shine except you support people who cheat with drugs.

    • @ohhhhh6269
      @ohhhhh6269 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Every WC has some kind of “corruption scandal” to it. I mean the Italy vs Bulgaria game was definitely in Italy’s favor by the refs. They don’t want Bulgaria vs Brazil. They don’t want Italy vs Sweden. They want the 2 big dogs in there. No match is ever fixed. However the refs will usually favor a certain side to an extent. I mean look at all the winners. It’s Italy, Brazil, Argentina, Germany, France, and Spain. I don’t mention England bc even though they have a massive fan base, they haven’t won since 1966. Spain gets mentioned bc that team from 2008-2012 was insane! 42-0 international record streak I think.
      The ones that live outside the bubble are Netherlands, Portugal, Belgium, and Croatia. Mostly all the other nations compete to make it entertaining.

      Inexperience cost Nigeria both matches. They played well and scored first, In the match against Italy, Amuneke scored a good goal, Zola was sent off and Nigeria were leading till the 90th minute. Oliseh couldnt tackle well inside the 18 yard box leading to the pass to Roberto Baggio to level. Even after Italy scored the penalty in the extra time, Nigeria had a golden chance to level it 2-2 off a beautiful tackle and pass across italy's 18 Yard from Mike Emenalo, Nigeria had 1,2,3 players that would have scored but Yekini miscued and resultant attempt to score failed as Dino Baggio cleared the ball to safety.

      Javier Dangelo What do you mean by "how much ignorance "? Don't call someone ignorant if you can't speak proper English. I see you didn't address the issue of the player being offside on the 1st goal. It is your poor sportsmanship that got Marradona banned for cheating with drugs. And don't forget about the "hand of God" in 86 and the cheating in 1978 to knock Brazil out before your 1st championship. Argentina has a legacy of cheating.

    Great game and quick thinking Argentina scored 2 smart goals against sleeping 🛏 Nigeria 🇳🇬 team. Cannigia was the first to react to the free kick expecting a rebound if the keeper fumbles with the ball. As a striker, you’re always taught to anticipate where the ball will be to score those Special winning Goals. Nigeria best World Cup team. Been to all world cups since 1996 in Germany and Russia 2018. Nigeria vs Argentina game in Russia was also a sad occasion as the referee denied Nigeria a second blatant penalty by Marcus Mojo who eventually scored the winner behind the sleeping Moses who should have taken the second penalty to probably send Argentina home....
    Nigeria loss to Italy 🇮🇹 was even worse to accept as I did not go to work for three days. My only consolation was that my beautiful Daughter ABIGAIL Laura was born on 06/07/94 which was a day after the match. She’s now 25 years old and guess what she doesn’t like football 🙈😂⚽️⚽️⚽️.
