SUPER EAGLES..

01-16-2010   17:00  Nigeria VS  Benin

Today the super chickens eagles   face the "mighty" squirrels

On the food chain pitting an eagle against a squirrel is an unfair match , kinda like  Me(boma) VS Tyson (even though he's washed up) i'ld still get my a** kicked hard! - very
so lets hope that the nigerian super eagles dont get eaten by her prey today.
 The night before the last match (Nigeria 1-3 Egypt) i slept in the my nigerian jersey and it didn't work so yeterday night i took a different step and didnt wear it.......lets hope it works!!

super eagles

Sorry yesterday I was unable to post , this was because I travelled , ok let me start the story of my frustrations from there, hmm I was in the bus an sat by this lady  with  the weirdest shade of OFF GREEN cutex on her nails it made me nauseous throughout the trip. Yes, speaking of nausea, that would have been the feeling of any supporter of Nigeria who watched THE ''SUPER" EAGLES in the orange CAF nations cup. Where the wings of the super eagles Nigeria were clipped by the pharaohs of Egypt, in a devastating 3-1 loss after Nigeria played excitingly in the first 20mins (once again the eagles have done what they do best. Break the heart of Nigerians –they’ve broken mine so many time I’m not sure how much my poor heart can take- l need love, lol )

ORANGE CAF nations cup

wow!!! after all the sadness that clouded the soccer world two days before the start of the ORANGE CAF nations cup. one could not have asked for a more eventful and spirited march as MALI squared off  against the hosts ANGOLA in an eight goal march ! (two penalties ,three three headers-two world class) , em i was sorta on the side of Mali because of Stephen Keshi (ex Nigerian international cum coach) . the man of the march of clearly Seydou Keita who plays for FC BARCA, Spain, if the rest of the matches go like this, its going to be some 22 days of stuning soccer , I'd be posting the results from the competition on a sidebar to keep you posted ....i hope Nigeria can impress  .....GO EAGLES !!!

Togolese SOCCER team ATTACKED

Sad really sad , with the CAF Orange African nations cup two days away , the festivities were marred when gun men attacked the Togolese team . it has been confirmed that two players were injured and the bus driver killed !! I have a feeling this Nations cup won’t live up to its billing.

Surely not the type of publicity the AFRICAN continent needs at this time with umar farouk Abdulmutallab doing us “proud” and the first world cup in Africa coming up shortly this would raise the already present security concerns about
Below is a video showing the players after the attack and their reactions …
it is unsure for now if they would participate in the soccer tournament as there is talk of pulling out.

VIEIRA TRANSFER NOW OFFICAL

 

LONDON, Jan 8  - Manchester City have completed the signing of French midfielder Patrick Vieira from Inter Milan on a six-month contract with an option for a further year, the Premier League club said on Friday.

The former Arsenal player, 33, is Roberto Mancini's first signing since taking over as coach at City last month.

"Patrick is a world class midfielder with a winner's mentality and will fit into this group very well," Mancini told the City website (www.mcfc.co.uk).

"He knows me and my staff well, and importantly he also knows what the Premier League is all about. He will not need much time to settle in."
