Players Rating
Vincent Enyeama : 9.0
- He made some great saves to keep Nigeria in the game.
Taye Tawio: 5.0
- Made some nice throws that gave the Argentinan defense problems.
- Needs to improve on his free kicks
- Picked up an injury
Odiah : 4.5
- Needs to cut down on the ball skills and make the basic pass.
- Offered little going forward.
Yobo : 5.0
- Too much ball watching by the team captain.
- Poor communication with other defenders giving Argentines too much space in the box.
Shittu : 4.5
- Argentina’s style of play demanded greater awareness from the centre-back which Shittu lacked.
Kaita 4.5
- Has no business been granted a spot on the national squad.
- Showed poor marking skills which needs improvement.
- Needs to improve both his decision-making and shooting.
Etuhu : 4.0
- Has no business been granted a spot on the national squad.
- Provided no creativity offensively.
- Poor passing and could not stabilize the midfield.
Lukman : 4.5
- Not ready for super Eagles prime time, but shows great promise for the future.
- His inexperience showed and his inability to create in the middle.
- Should not be starting for a young player in his first World Cup.
Obasi : 5.5
- Attacked Gutierrez with some success early on, but his effectiveness died out as the game wore on and he was replaced on the hour mark.
- Needs to improve on his finishing
Yakubu: 5.0
- Did not link up well with either Nsofor/Obasi or Osaze/Martins.
- Was a passenger all game long.
Nsofor : 4.5
- Poor performance
- I have seen better
Subs
Martins : 6 -
- Came on for Obinna and provided a new urgency in attack.
- Didn’t have lot of chances.
Odemwingie : 5.5
- Panicked on the ball a couple of times.
- Provided Nigeria new life with his pace.
- Odemwingie finds himself in possession in the box, but a woeful attempt at control sends the ball flying out for a goal-kick. Another opportunity goes begging with Martins being open for a shot.
Uche : 5.5
- Flashes of creativity was a welcome infusion into a bumbling unsure Nigerian side. Should replace Haruna in the attacking midfield.
2dramasports.com Match Notes & Concerns about the Argentina versus Nigeria encounter
- Nigeria have to use set-pieces much better.
- Argentina look very dangerous going forward, but also look very dangerous at the back, Nigeria could not capitalise on this oppurnity.
- Good hunting at South Africa 2010 World Cup
- Go Super Eagles of Nigeria
