omg, what a surprise, I did not expect Nigeria to lose at all! As I said before, 9 points in the group stage is meaningless in the final round. Tunisia is now with good chances to reach at least the semi-final, maybe even the final. There is "only" Senegal as a very strong team left in their half of the tournament's bracket.

Imagine my surprise when I multi bet yesterday and three "guaranteed" outcomes were not in my favor - Nigeria didn't win, Real didn't win, Arsenal didn't win Grin

Today there are two interesting matches again, and again, like yesterday, the first one seems random, and the second one is like a guaranteed victory for Cameroon, but I'm not sure of anything anymore Grin

We all thought Nigeria was the strongest team of the season, and deserved to win the title. Because their performance in every match of the group stage was eye-catching. Has played and won all 3 matches. Tunisia, on the other hand, had a very poor group stage performance. They were able to win only one of the 3 matches.
Nigeria have been knocked out of the tournament after losing to Tunisia.
Which team is eligible to win the title now? What is your guess?

According to the bookmakers Cameroon and Senegal are the top teams now with quotes around 4.0 to 5.0. We could see a final between these two teams. I think Cameroon has good chances to win the tournament.

I think Nigeria lacked a bit of motivation after their perfect first round with 3 victories. They didn't take it serious enough and weren't hungry enough for the win and then at some point they were unlucky twice (Tunisia's goal and the red card).

That's why such tournaments are mostly won by the teams that are not only good, but also very motivated.

Yes being good is not just enough, getting motivated and staying motivated is also very important. Some players really like the Nigerian goalie Maduka, came under backlash for being distracted and not giving their very best in the game.

Plus read this from a WhatsApp contact

Do you agree with this opinion?

the problem of Nigeria team is that they feel so relaxed ....

I don't think they were too relaxed, they didn't take advantage of their chances yes, but not that they were too relaxed.This is just football, and even the strongest of teams loose games still. IMO, the Super played the best they could even with the red card in the second half, they were just the unlucky side of the game. Tunisia on the other hand were able to keep their cool throughout the game, and that's good too... but other than that, i am not convinced that they can win this AFCON.

Exactly, Nigeria were not just lucky in the game, not that they were loose, Nigeria is a good team that plays very well, their are time when good teams do perform low and it makes them strong and to be well prepare for the next game.

Of course there is always a factor of luck. But equally important are skills and motivation. While they surely have the skill, I think Nigeria lacked a bit of motivation after their perfect first round with 3 victories. They didn't take it serious enough and weren't hungry enough for the win and then at some point they were unlucky twice (Tunisia's goal and the red card).

Nigeria 0 - 1 Tunisia

I never expected Tunisia to win nigeria, after the first half I was thinking this game will end with in a goalless match until Tunisia scored, thus performance of nigeria can make the team to work harder, I think nigeria is becoming relaxed.

A great game!
Sadly, Nigeria has been knocked out of the 2021 Afcon. The team played poorly in the first half. For the first 45 minutes, there was no intensity, no urgency. Are we watching the original Super Eagles? Tunisia exposed them after they attempted to deceive us. Despite the Eagles' superiority in skills, the Tunisians had well-honed tactics.

Nigeria having been eliminated from the AFCON, now I support Cameroon to win this title.

I am not surprised because this is just spike a game of throne. Football can be unpredictable at time that is why one has to be more focused and concentrated in what they do. Nigeria fan was busy happen when they got full 9 point without any difficult, but now they players was not that lucky to win the match which is a normal thing that do happen in football.

Tunisia have the chance to defeat Nigeria does mean that the cup will reach their hands i have checked the methods of their football is not orderly strong, their defeated Nigerian team with luck and chance, it is Nigeria football team that take it unserious but i know they have tried their best.

Surprisingly Tunisia was able to tackle Nigeria's move in the round of 16 and was able to qualify for the quarter-finals, a single goal from Youssef Msakni in the 47th minute was able to bring Tunisia's dream of qualifying for the quarter-finals. Nigeria had to experience difficult things after in the 64th minute Alex Iwobi was shown a red card and had to play with 10 players. Even though Nigeria is strengthened by Premier League players such as Alex Iwobi and Kelechi Iheanacho, it has not been able to make Nigeria talk much in the Africa Cup of Nations.

The team was using a kinda fucked up gameplay today and it really turn out a failure for them today seriously; thier performances were poor,passes were weak and barely had a shot on target.
The lost control of the ball at a very wrong position and it be became a problem which made turnisia manoeuvered over them
to get a goal at the 46th minute by thier right winger, youseff nsakni and since then, Nigeria hasn't gotten a good chance for ashot on target. We'll, let's consider this as thier first loose for the contest.

The team use the players they normally use, the problem of Nigeria team is that they feel so relaxed and Tunisia has watched the kind football pattern like severally, because even Tunisia was afraid of Nigeria team when the ball started, Nigerians heard player and it is the same team they have being using since the match started, their fucked up come as results of reluctant

The reason Tunisia win Nigeria is because Nigeria feel that they will defeat Tunisia in everything, the planing or arrangements of Tunisia show that they have point out all strong players in Nigeria and study their method of playing pattern and understand the wing that Nigerian will pass to score goal, so Nigeria fail to study Tunisia because they had confidence to win Tunisia without knowing they weak point. The wining shocked everybody because everyone was thinking Nigeria will win

It is unfortunate that Nigeria was defeated by Tunisia, although Nigeria is a seeded country and a strong candidate for champions, they were beaten by Tunsia with a narrow score of 0-1, Nigeria advanced to the round of 16 as group winners, while Tunisia qualified for the round of 16. because they are in the best 3rd place, even though they won the group but can't guarantee victory, that's how football is very difficult to predict, the country that is favored to win, but in the end loses and has to go home..

Nigeria 0 - 1Tunisia !
The goal just scored in the 47th minutes. I can't believe my multi-bet will be ruined by this game!
I avoided betting on the other game between Burkina Faso and Gabon since I thought it will be random and I wasn't disappointed but now Cry

Edit: a red card for Nigeria, great..

Nigeria playing with 10 players will be difficult to score 2 goals and not concede any goal to win this game, 77 minutes are already played and with 10 players and lose the game, it will be very difficult for Nigeria to win. the odd for nigeria wins is at @45.00 who would bet on nigeria with that odd?

Nigeria 0 - 1 Tunisia

it's shocking, tunisia finished in position 3 in group F where they only won 1 game and today they are beating nigeria that was favorite to win

Fastest lost multi-bet in history thanks to Nigeria! How could they lose vs a team qualifying after losing 2 games from 3 in the group stage lol!
I wasn't fully confident with the bets I placed and was expecting a surprise in another match but not here!
The goal was scored after multiple faults starting from midfielders to defenders to the goalkeeper. The red card made things harder and they deserved to lose honestly.
Burkina Faso gonna celebrate twice tonight Tongue

it didn't even look like the same nigeria as past games when i look at it:

this nigeria goalkeeper made a mistake, but then came the mistake of the nigeria player who took the red card. but leaving those two things nigeria didn't play as well, as you said, they didn't look like the same nigeria i saw in past games.

Alex Iwodi tackle on the Tunisia player is too hard and harsh thus deserve a Red card,

I don't agree with you on this. Yeah, he committed a fowl but, I wasn't something that was worth a straight red card and besides, he hasn't been warned before, infact, he was in possession of the ball and only loosed I by a few feet and in an attempt to regain that ball, he committed the fowl.
Nigeria lost and that's some big blow to Nigerians right now. We were beginning to see some future with the trophy but sadly, they had to lose when it's critical. After being impressive in the group stage, it's the knockout that they had to go through this sh*t. We would welcome them home still.

unfortunately in africa we have a big problem: the referees decide the result of many games

in the case of nigeria, that goal was a big failure by the nigerian goalkeeper

then they were reduced to 10 players because of the referee
