The excitement and frenzies of the 2018 FIFA world cup has been awesome. We've had a whole lot of drama and surprises since its inception.
The most painful (and personal) of all the happenings in the ongoing FIFA 2018 World Cup is Nigeria's exit from the competition. A whole lot of Nigerians couldn't hold tears at the sight of her beloved country's eviction from the epochal event.
Nigeria was very close to clinching a spot in the second round. The game decisive game against Argentina was the hurdle on the path of the Super Eagles of Nigeria. The team had a couple of clear cut chances, the referee came to their rescue by giving them a penalty, coupled with another controversial "likely penalty".
In my opinion, Nigeria was sloppy in their play. It was apparent they were not set for the World Cup. Their style of play was so basic and devoid of creativity. When you see the play, pass, precision, agility, tactics, and creativity of the Belgians, the Portuguese, star studded Spaniards, skillful Brazilians, and the young and vibrant English side, you'll begin to wonder of my own Nigeria came for the same World Cup.
In regards to Nigeria's performance at the World Cup, I'll say, they tried, but at their level of play.
