FIFA U-20 World Cup 2023 Argentina

Most idiotic pk ever. I mean from the referee.

 

3-1

 

3-2

 

3-2 FT

 

Nigeria next.

 

Both teams look absolutely exhausted. Next match is on the 4th...2 days rest? wow!

 

That scoreline suggests it was brutal. Still, the tiger cubs go forth with a very efficient attack.

 

Another iffy penalty call. But we still got the “W”. Nigeria is always good at youth tourneys so I’m going to be sweating this one. This team is different than the 2019 one, where LKI had to do everything. It seems this team, everyone kinda pulls a bit of their own weight which is good to see. Doesn’t have an absolute gem player like a LKI but a lot of solid players who can step up when need be.

 

Absolutely horrendous penalty call. Again.

This team is performing well. Scoring a fair fee goals each game.

the only issue is conceding stupid penalties (tho both times, honestly just stupid calls)

 

One thing that bothered me was that we weren't able to keep the ball in the last 20m... Kept giving up the possession..

 

Some garbage calls have gone against them yet they are still pulling out result after result. All 3 goals to be fair were top class. The first was filthy, 2nd even filthier and the 3rd was a textbook header. Cannot ask for more from these boys.

Wouldn't be surprised if it went to pens vs the Eagles

 

Should be practicing penalties. It's a simple thing to set up that can make things go decisively in our favor.

Good thing is that Nigeria's main striker is short, meaning a deep D-Line should work well- bait Nigerians into bashing themselves against it and counter them.

 

Defending okay, but nothing happening up front.

 

Korea is a frustrating team to watch, lack of skills and creativity. They give the ball away easily and can't keep possession.

 

I’m sure the lack of rest is also a factor

 

Another set piece goal!! YES!

 

GOALLL

We deserve this. We've been looking like the better side since the second half.

 

Yes Finally!
