K Pro [Applause] welcome back to the channel football fans welcome back to the channel Nigerians superos 3 Ben Republic Z the go stepped up when everyone needed them to step step up three goals three unrep goals clean sheet against Ben Republic The Last Time in the World Cup qualifier they lost against Ben Republic at in Ivory Coast and they needed to to step up this time this time the afan qualifiers against the same Ben Republic and against their former former coach Geno and they stepped up they needed to step up and three really good goals against Ben Republic top of the group now three points on the log and this group has Rwanda Ben Republic and Libya and Nigeria is Seated on top of the group right now as it stands very very good game even though the game started slowly we had Bonny face leading the attack line and he missed a couple of chances and the team controlled the game really well the recovery they recovered the ball really really good but Ben Republic were still very very compact in defense line 45 minutes look like we were going to have an another bad evening from the super OS a moment was of magic was needed from adola lman remember that adola lukman was just nominated for the Balon door and this guy showed us what he's all about he's he's a special baller like he's so so good we saw him have the out form how he delivered how he carried Nigeria all through the afon and he stepped up to give us that lead just before halftime and this lead was very crucial if would have gone into the second half goal less it would have it could have been another another story altogether but went to the second half with a good lead confidence we had confidence going into the second half and the the goal started coming Victor s Chelsea fans would be biting their their their nails now for not signing this guy came on to the pitch and I think that was his first touch of the game acrobatic what a goal from this guy Victor Sim made it two goals two goals to nil against Ben Republic normally when SP go go two gos up that's usually all for them and they just want to see most times they just want to see the game they just want to finish the game when they've scored up two two two goals but that wasn't enough adola lukman got his second of the night man of the match clearly the man of the match this guy he's so good and before now I was tipping Victor Bon for the African player of the year but lukman is way ahead of Bonny face right now bnny face didn't really have a good game in the first half and he deserved to be subbed off in the second half but lukman lukman he's really balling for club and Country and he's going to win the African playoff the year and I'm I'm I'm staking everything on that he's going to win the African player of the year he's so so good he's a talented baller and he delivers for club and Country he delivers so guys let's take a look at some of the player raisings from this game one Bal go one Bal was very good had a couple of saves was very very good on the evening he had three good saves three really really good saved and he's shown why he should remain as the number one goalkeeper before this game a lot of people aru argued that maduk has been really performing for his club and he deserved to giv um a chance in the goal line but why give him a chance when w Bal is still there delivering making no mistakes making really really crucial saves W Bal should still remain the number one and he for me in this game I'll give you a nine a 9 over 10 rating in this game aay solid in the defense I'll give him eight truce aong I'll give him eight also bassi eight really for keeping a clean sheet they deserve an eight for keeping a clean sheet a three man defense they were really really compact they held his Ben Republic side very well and they considered no goals they did their job absolutely well and to the Midfield IND it will be I'll give IND an eight and it will be here and there I won't really go deep down criticizing the players today because they did their job they got us a win I'll give it will be a seven we played Wing backs today we had AA as a wing backo have oi Bruno oi had a very very good game I'll give him an eight also AA also had a good game I'll give him a 7.5 yeah yeah and I I I like to mention something we've got really really good um crop of players in the attack line we've got options on the bench we've got Bonny face we got lukan got got CH lot of options in the attack line but in the defense line we need to get options lots of options in the defense line because if we playing um Wing backs like AA who is aa's replacement who is Bruno's rep replacement we need to have quality replacement for these guys when we had when we qualified for the afcon and we go for the afcon next year moving on for for the front line I'll give um Bon a six in the first half I think he was kind of sloppy he didn't really find his feet and he should have scored one or two goals in the first half but he couldn't I'll give him a six and chuku chuku really performed well today I'll give him um an eight luk man clearly the man of the match I'll give him a 10 a 10 I don't care score lineups are saying but I'll give him a 10 he was the man of the match two goals two really really beautiful goals and got us on the score sheet where we really needed to get on the score sheet so I'll give lukman a 10 man of the match so let me just move on to to the subs we saw alisand coming I give alisand that a seven yeah I think yeah he made a couple of mistakes here and there but I'll give him a seven Del bashiru I'll give Del bashiru seven and Simon got an assist I'll give him an eight coming on and getting an assist I'll give him an eimen what a goal is scored I'll give him I'll give him a nine I'll give him a nine I don't care what you guys say you can drop your comments in the comment section on what rating you feel you should you would give o simmen how would you rate o siman's performance over 10 in this game so guys austinan has returned with a really really good result a really good performance a banger performance to say and against um Rwanda on Tuesday I hope the spers
