African nations games are some of the most difficult to predict. Reason being that, almost all the teams are on a level platform and it's rear to see matches with an over 3.5 scoreline nor would you see a particular team with lots of goal difference.
Very true, it's been a really long time i saw a team win another by a huge goal difference in african football. As much as Egypt will do well in the world cup, i think senegal who were just winners of the AFCON can do well relatively. The game between Egypt and Senegal is far from over, Egypt won but did not score a goal themselves, not very convincing, and this proves that they return leg will still be a battle for qualification.
At the end of the first legs for the World Cup qualifies ;
Ghana and Nigeria ended with no goals in the game.
Not as expected really by many including myself, Maybe we just overhyped the super eagles, because there was nothing super about their performance. We have many quality players in our team, and the challenge now is with our coach Austin Eguavon to be able to manage and get these players to play together as a team. Nigeria needs to get it right in the second leg, we will have the hole advantage and will have to take our chances, it will be a huge disappointment if Nigeria doesn't qualify.
