The man is completely on point. We were carried away by the wins.
This man is eloquent! I love your choice of words sir. Great analysis also devoid of emotion 😊
Very eloquent!
Mr Charles Ojugbana was a legendary NTA sports commentator in those days. I dare not miss him on Saturday sports commentaries. I wish this video is sent to NFF and sports minister so that they can catch some essential words on which way to go. Nigeria will continue to go round the circle if the authorities fail to do the needful
Tobi Amusan is a household name today because she borrowed $50k to develop herself and become world champion. Assuming she didn't develop, who would have known her today? All our government and sports authorities are proud and associating without contributing financially to her development and trainings
Half a word is enough for who wants to be wise. Please bring back our sports infrastructure and national sports competitions and make Nigeria relevant and a force in the world of sports
Great analysis, guys. Congratulations to the elephants of Ivory Coast. They were better than Nigeria in all ramifications. The stats showed it. Nigeria had about 5 shots on goal as against 8 of the Ivoriens. Nigeria had one shot on target while the Ivoriens had 8 on target. The Ivoriens had 63% possession of the ball while Nigeria had 37%. Pass accuracy for Nigeria was 74%, while our opponent had 86%. The Ivoriens had 409 passes, and the Eagles had 248 passes. The Eagles failed to fly when it mattered most. The elephants looked hungrier and determined. They got what they wanted. They hosted to win it, and the result proved it. Our boys were lackadaisical on their approach from the beginning of the match to finish.
It's not just that. It is curious how the Ivorian team re - invented itself after defeats from Nigeria and a four zero trouncing by Equatorial Guinea.
The Ivorian football house immediately did not let the situation dampen their enthusiasm. They took a risk by dismissing the coach and appointing a new one. Using the same players, the new coach Emerse Fae turned Ivory Coast from losing to winning ways.
He rallied the players together, and having narrowly qualified as one of the best losers, upped their game and the result is for all to see. No wonder why CAF called him "coach of the tournament."
Are there lessons to learn by Nigeria who led one zero in the first half, only to concede two goals in the second half?
How could it be that a team that came third in its group, losing two matches and winning only one, a team that escaped elimination ended up as AFCON 2023 champions?
Oga, Ivory Coast has 13 shoot on Goal. Ur Nigeria 1. Ball possesion CIV 67%, NGA 33%
The evolution of the Ivorian team needs to be studied, they did something right that needs to be emulated.
I am not surprised because Mr. Charles Ojugbana is a highly seasoned sports analyst who knows our football in and out, hence his deep analytical perspectives here. He should be given a chance to run things in Nigeria football/sports.
Excellent and eloquent analysis by Charles Ojugbana. He hit all the right notes. Nigeria needs to do a lot better!
All I desire is for Ghana to beat Nigeria the next 2024 Afcon. This banter must continue for ever
Wow... Well spoken sir God bless you higher sir
Wooow I am blown away by the knowledge that this man display
When a subject expert speaks you don't have options than to just listen. Weldone Charles!
Sound Analysis by this man
Truth be told by the veterans, the rot looks irreversible...
If broadcasters of old like Charles Ojugbana are still very much alive to tell us the truth and propher solutions, we still have a 10% chance of survival...
Thank you Charles
MORE WISDOM SIR GOD BLESS YOU SIR 🙏.
I love this man. His analysis shows he knows football. It is not enough to just sit before TV and be showing up eagles. Remove the keeper, Ekong, Osimen and lookman, the rest are just extremely average. Anyone with a brain can see clearly from the group stage that the team no get mid feeders. You have sharp strikers, but no one to supply them. How can a coach not see that? Even Finidi was just a waste to that coaching crew.
Well mine taking on this about the result is that, when God says it's your time, nothing can stop you. The ivorians were almost written out, both on the group stage and even the knock-out stage when they played against Senegal, but they still make it through to the final and play with the best acclaimed team of the tournament and they come out with great vigor. That is when you know God is with you. All this analysis does make any difference as long as you don't have God's backing. With God all things are possible. GOD is still angry with Nigeria government and religious leaders for failure to care for his people.
Yes you are speacking sense nigerians really really lack the kowledge of God they believe their own personal effort and men wisdom.
I agree with your analysis sir 👍
Nigeria 🇳🇬 will wake up and start asking - How did we not have ELECTRICITY ⚡️ since 1960 ☹️ …. Oga. .. as long as Greedy And selfish leaders are in charge of ur Government…. U will not go forward!! 🤨. There is no going forward oooo.
All these analyses just scorched the snake without killing it! The enthusiasm and zest of the players are symptomatic of the problems in Nigeria!! We are a shameless people who have no respect for reality, patriotism, and national character....we are a bundle of tribalistically focused, financially corrupt, and religiously dogmatic people! We are shameless! And, we continue to go in zombie fashion from frying pan to fire!!!!
Dr. O
My question is. Do we even deserve the cup? People are dieing of hunger, coupled with the insecurity everywhere. We are here discussing about something we didn't deserve. Please, you people should continue telling the government about what the common man in the street is facing incase they don't know. Very difficult to put food on the table, dippresion everywhere. People dey really suffer in this country now i beg.
The question begging for answer is why does Nigeria not get people like this analyst into sports administration to see what difference they will make. To see whether they will be able to walk their talk, by putting their talk and experience into fruit yielding actions.
Is Tinubu the best to rule us as a people.? So, it's general syndrome.
Nice one sir.
Since the beginning of this year Afcon I have not really been enthusiastic about our super eagle and somebody said but they have been winning and I said yes but all their games your heart is always in your mouth and the final match was the worst. They were just watching the Ivorien mesmerizing them just as in those days in our college when team A is practicing with team B. I can feel that we have been turned to team B of Cotedvoire. Another thing I observed was that the Ivorien was really playing like hungry Lions and seems hyper motivated while the super eagle was totally flat footed according to veteran Charles Ojugbana. While wining the 🏆 is the ultimate I will prefer loosing at group stage of an inspiring team rather than reaching final only to be reduced to training team.
Exactly my thoughts
Good mr ojugbana
Good analysis.
We need a new coach
Amuneke should be drafted to take up the role ASAP .
NFF will frustrate him
Yes oooooo !!!!!!.
The PRINCIPLE’S CUP !!!!!. I’m surprised they no longer have it… A lot of talents came out of the PC.. To name a few… HENRY NWOSU, ADOKIE AMESIMAKA, STEVEN KESHI,WAKILU OYENUGA etc… Those were the good old days at CMS GRAMMAR SCHOOL…. THE BARIGA BOMBERS..Please reintroduce those events, I’m sure it will help find young talents.
Love from Texas.
Here in Nigeria, we are suffering from INFERIORITY COMPLEX when it comes to developing , relying and using our home based players. Instead, we started running all over the world looking for the foreign based players..After they are found, they GLUED them together in a rush and expect them to perform MIRACLES….
I hope the people in charge of football in Nigeria learn from this TERRIBLE MISTAKE AND EXPERIENCE.
I agree with veteran lack of investment in sport has been the bane of our problems . Just think of it the kind of pitches they have in ice out coast which was applauded . That investment in facilities . Nigeria need to do a rethink . Let’s not forget it’s the Olympics again this year hope we don’t get disgraced like the last one
He who advises the Super Eagles to play a Defensive Game in a Final is an Idiot to the CORE in capital Letters.....
How can you play a defensive Game in Final and expect Victory...? They stupidly gave Ivorians 95mn free Dominance...The Result is what they Got at the End. Previously against South Africa and Cameroon they were very Combative which amounted them scoring 2Gaols ahead of their Opponent and the Pattern was what led them to the Final Stage. Why changing this Pattern ??? Nigerian Old and Obsolete pattern that has never yielded a positive Result in History. Who is responsible for that pattern they exhibited on Sunday I ask again...???
You guys have an extra time to discuss about Nigerian affairs. A country where corruption is endemic.
Nigeria missed the golden opportunity to win the trophy. There's nothing like next year. Who knows maybe the team would be able to advance beyond group level next year?
As much as i wanted Nigeria to loose i feel for Nigerian 🇳🇬 football...Its truly sad that local talent will never be seen bcoz of the state of local soccer....its realy sad 😢😢
Rufai, you took a deep breath like you're taking a penalty......
Thank God that super eagles lost. Tinubu would have claimed it as his achievement.
Nigeria should reach out to coach Fae and offer something good to lure him from Ivory Coast.
let us leave imagining and face our reality
We have someone like finidi geoge that played for dis country with his heart but we dump to assistance and bring someone from potugal what is wrong with us
They did their best!
Of course we are disappointed Super Eagles did not win the trophy, but thankful for 2nd place... 🙏💯❤
I dont think this Afcon story is over yet.A team that could hardly beat anyone suddenly defeat senegal,reigning champion and super eagles the most formidable team,both teams playing worse than their previous game..There is much to this story that meets the eyes.Suddenly our players were flat footed,the desire to attack they could not find it.Same story with senegal team when they played ivory coast.l honestly believe this Afcon trophy is super eagles,l do....
Sound Analysis, nothing emotional. it is important for Nigeria to have a strong local league. What happen to Enyiba
Painful but we have moved on!
God will give us the WORLD CUP!
They've looted the money for Nigeria. APC have killed Nigeria....😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yes, you thought it will help boost your legitimacy.
Rufai is something else!
Charles ojugbana former NTA sports commentator
Shettima took Nigerian government bad luck to Super Eagles dressing room in Ivory Coast. His Oracle Stoned Face was not needed there. He should have stayed home to fix the insecurity and hardships they caused in Nigeria.
You guys are so evil and non challants online barbarians. And abeg who's responsible for Ghana. Cameroon. Senegal and Egypt getting knocked out earlier in the competition? Is it due to their President's bad luck as well?
@@okeoja4447Abeg shift. Who sent him? We have more issues and problems in the Country that needed his attention.
Efulefu. You are a disgrace to your family.
@@okeoja4447 Very evil! You can see them on social media insulting and wishing evil on Nigeria yesterday. And when 2027 comes, they will want to rule.
@@afolabitoye4393enjoy ur rulers begger
Corruption has eaten everywhere facet of life in this country. What a shame?
Thanks Mr Charles for your indept analysis. Nigeria as a country has a fundamental problem across board.
There will be another AFCON tournament next year in June 2025 in Morocco. This tournament that just concluded yesterday should have been held last year June in year 2023. That's the reason as to why, next year in June 2025 there will be another AFCON tournament. In the meantime, the qualifications for the new AFCON tournament begins just next month across Africa. Peace...
God bless Rufai
Celebrations does not come to a country dat innocent people are murdered in cold blood including pastors dat there head are cut off The cry of children nd men of God dat they are slaughtered will not allow God to give Nigeria any kind of victory.Dis country is doomed until we deal with insecurity
Those additional players to be added to the team will not come from home based players.
Because our league is nothing to write home about, the question is how many referees or assistant referees came from Nigeria in this concluded afcon tournament!
Let them start now to reach out to all Nigerian blood that scattered across Europe and America, those of them who want to switch nationality to come and join team.
Why single Iwobi out, he was not the only Nigerian player. In Ivory Coast Niggeria did not play attacking football
They went to park the bus.
Mr Ojugbana just proved to us all that he was probably watching the Super Eagles play for the first time in that finals. He was part of the problem in the old brigade during the era of Clemence Westahoff and one who said we don't need a foreign coach just mentioned Westahoff.
We should stop crying blue murder when we lose...if we had won like 1980, 1994, 2013 (Keshi) we would not be talking about how bad our football organisation which Mr Ojugbana was part of is bad. I remember he was sacked by the Federal Ministry of Sports as the former Head of the International Department of the NFF under government's umbrella... Hypocrisy well displayed
The boys lost because they were not in the game and the Ivorians were hungrier
The eagle did very well thy were not the best team in the tournament but they get to the final Senegal is better than Nigeria but never get to the top congrats to the team
They did woefully.
I'm not surprised super eagles lost at the final, i was only hoping we win by luck again not because we've been doing what it takes to win the cup.
The death of the Nigerian football league is closely linked to our socio political climate. The the young football talents are not immune to the Japa syndrome.
The Super Eagles did not disappoint us. We shopped for and bought disappointment for ourselves by pinning so much hope on a low scoring team. A team that will win a competition must engineer awe in its prospective opponents by previous performances and high scoring ability. That will get the opponents nervous and fidgeting, and fifty percent defeated even before the matches. Super Eagles do not have that awe raising atmosphere around them. We always depend on goodluck to do the job for us as if we have monopoly of it.
People should be going for health checkups before watching Super Eagle matches to ensure that the states of their health can contain dashed hopes and expectations.
All the previous winnings was to develop the game in the country where did channel fund, 1980,1994 and 2013 ,where is the runner up fund? Yet promised made to players not redeemed shame to Nigeria managers
That Nigeria league hmmm I don't even know they are still playing I only hear of Enyimba of Aba.
There are good players in the Nigeria squad but for politics and bad management management else why should the team Dr. Tell you a player can not play again for months only to go to his club and started playing in a week. Now how do you bench Chigozie Awaziam for Sanusi and bench Mosses Simon for Chikwuaze?
Foreign coach is the problem Nigeria need home base coach and the corruption is the problem
ONE WORD: would anyone take notice??
Where’s the Technical committee report?!
What profile of player was missing yesterday??
But I said, one word‼️
Ndidi
in modern football of nowadays, if you lost the control of the midfield, you are finished as a Team.
Let’s tell ourselves the truth, Apart from that Cameroon match, we haven’t play a beautiful and entertaining football since the start of the tournament. Alex Iwobi is dropping stinkers since 2018 World Cup in Russia 🇷🇺, but he is still a starter for the Super Eagles perhaps because he is Jay Jay's Nephew. 🤦♂️
My opinion tho 👌
Very unfortunate
The route cause of the problem not one day mentioned in every of our analysis. And that is where we always missed the points. And we will continue loose the winning everytime. Let us look at it from this points of view. Is those people in position of President, Ministers, Economics, Development, Administration etc. doing well? The answer is capital no. Nobody can fight The Almighty God. Faraoh try it and failed, even, not only failed, was perished. Let me tell you. If you people, called Nigeria refuse to do the Will of God,you can never get it right, smooth or comfortable. The fact is that, except the country return into how it was created before Lord Lugard came and did his worst. If you still refused to do that, i am hundred percent sure that we will continue debate, discuss, blaming and reacting on error till the end of the generation. I don't know how do you want to be greater or a winner when you are at fault. Please forget it Sir. Victory can never emerge in whatever Nigeria doing as a nation. Instead confusion everywhere.
In Ghana we used to have colts teams, schooll teams, regional and district leveks ehere our best players like Abedi, Tiny yeaboah, Assmoah Guan, Sulley Muuntari, Essien etc came from.
Sorry now none of yhese plays any meaningful impact
Alma Ngur s daddy❤
You go explain explain explain still no evidence
D way we reason in africa so bad and unreasonable i will give u example of of ghana won all d throphy for nation cup with they are local coaches still they are still going for foreign coaches
Biko all these armchair angry analysts should enter house . Those Super Eagles players played out their hearts to arrive at the second place. Up Super Eagles of Nigeria! Chikena!👏👏👍👍Ask yourself: If the Super Eagles had somehow managed to WIN, would these men have talked down on them? NOoo!
Nigeria president Nigeria government destroyed the system of Nigeria that destroy Nigeria so much these people are so wicked.
That's the same problem i Ghana, no one cares about the lical leagues.
People prefer watching or duscussing about resl madrb, arsenal or Barcelona to Hearts of aok, resl tamale united etc
The guys were not there at all in the tournament. They only 1 goal on target from Ihenacho even the semi final the SA were better. Osimhen the forward was not there even with the SA and Ivorian game you cannot rely solely on 1 player. A coach can even change his captain is he is not playing well. There was no mid field it was flat even when we played SA and the final. That AFCON cup needs to be changed is too childish for the big game is like a toy.
Common Rufai, why do you talk about local leagues when the nigeria environment expedites the japa syndrome.
Perhaps the reason we lost is Tinubu does not deserve the people's distraction at this time..😅
They over tried abeg, you should know you can't defend the host country, a commentator said so yesterday, that how can they' host and loose the battle
I disagree with Mr Charles' view of the best team. There is a reason they didnt get to the final
Una hearing am 2M from fifa every year..wetin we get in return? If the money are put into use properly, we could have gone half way.. This is where efcc supposed to be looking into instead of harassing and pursuing small boys all over town 😅😅😅
NIGERIA ALWAYS PRONOUNCING THEMSELVES BEFORE MATCHES. NEXT TIME
The only game that Peter Obi couldn't attend and VP Shetima representing Nigeria, so draw your own conclusions 😁
Another online jesters and non challants commentator. Ok may be your mini god Peter obi should henceforth be hired to follow all of our various sports teams around so we could win.
Peter obi should have attended
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 , illiteracy is a bad thing.
@@relaxationandmeditationnoi1297 sure. He should be hired by the ministry of sport and follow our teams around so we could win without putting in serious preparation before the games
If PO was there and we still lost, st least the boys would have had a real leader to comfort them
Comot for there they played nothing
Soon no body will want to Coach Nigeria and you will settle with your Corrupt League.
The man has raised points that are NOT valid. Westerhoff used local players mainly because he had little to no foreign players back in the day. He also profited from negotiating deals for these players to move abroad. The times are different now, while I advocate for the best Nigerian players home or abroad to play for the Super Eagles, the reality still remains that our best players are abroad. This is for various reasons, quality of league, investment in the league, promotion of the league, playing surfaces, and so on. If NFF cannot do this, how can they in return urge a foreign coach to do the same? It is NOT Victor Peseiro, it is the lack of management ability of our institutions.
I can’t stand that arrogant thing call Rufai, look the guest had to say hello to him first , he just sat there with his lizard mouth waiting on the guest to say good morning first.
Your hatred will make you sick. You are just giving yourself high bp
No structure every where shameful country
Igbo man abroad , wail more.
Nigeria is bad
But you have a very bad League .
Bad league in terms of football or administration? In uk apart from epl they have smaller leagues that the people still support
Bad administration.@@nwananka
Why is it so difficult for everyone to understand that Iwobi is not a central midfielder. He can fill in as a more attacking midfielder but he is basically a winger thats the role he plays in club football. Peseiro neglected to call up CMs. He had just 5 midfielders and 3 were defensive mids. The only other CM was Aribo and we saw how he performed against Guinea Bissau.
Please lets get the facts right. I'm not a coach but it was obvious that if you cut off our wingers from play then you've neutralized the whole of Nigerias offense thats why we only had 5 shots in final and only one on target.
That is the fault of the coach from the get go.
Moving forward we have to get a coach that has attacking instincts and will make the best of our enormous attacking threat. Good-bye Peseiro.
No one wants a hand shake from thief Tinubu or be invited to Aso rock. 😢 that's why they lost
BREAKUP NIGERIA NOW!
We have someone like finidi geoge that played for dis country with his heart but we dump to assistance and bring someone from potugal what is wrong with us
