**Official Match Thread - Nigeria v Argentina**

[Spider]

I wish the commentators would stop creaming themselves over Argentina. They've been pretty good passing but they definetely haven't been as impressiv e as McCarthy seems to think. And they've scored one goal from a set piece so far. It's getting on my tits.

More foul throws, what is the point of having a foul throw rule if nobody ever notices it?

Completely agree, thought they were pretty average albeit after a good twenty minutes in the first half. Would fancy S Korea to score against them. They are well dodgy at the back, and the only time the Argies looked like scoring was when messi had it.

One man team and a tosser manager.

It's been a pretty tedious tournament so far in terms of actual football hasn't it?

 

[The Oldman]

Was the TV sound doctored? The crowd noise seemed not to relate to the action on the pitch and the horns were very faint.

World Cup starts at 7.30pm, COME ON ENGLAND, show the world how the masters play.

Fortunately for them, Nigeria are poo up front

Unfortunately they're poo pretty much all over the pitch. Yobo is still solid but other than that, and with Obi Mikel out injured, they are pretty useless. Group of ageing European based players who never play as a team. South Korea will beat them no trouble

Nigeria's best results always come at U21's and below where the vast majority of players are still home based. Egypt in the past two African Cup of Nations show what a well organised TEAM of home based players can do.







Cue some smart arse asking why Egypt didn't qualify for this World Cup
