    Nigeria started very well, could/should be a couple ahead by now.

    Fairly cagey so far.

    Nigeria can qualify from this group if the remaining three group F games (including this one) are nil nil draws. It would surely make them the first team to qualify for the knock-out phase without scoring a goal?


    That technically means they could also win the World Cup without scoring a goal in open play, if they were to win each round on penalties following this.

    Bosnia had perfectly good goal disallowed. Shocking decision from the linesman. Not even close mate.

    That's that out the window then.

    1-0 to Nigeria. Odemwingie.

    A Nigeria win might be the best result for Iran and Reza. An eliminated Bosnia would have nothing to play for.

    Good point - a long way to go before it happens but Bosnia going home pointless would be a big shock.

    Shocking bad luck (incompetent refereeing) so far.
    Valid goal disallowed.......was well on side.
    Emenike fouled the defender for the goal.
    Wonder if the officials have been got at?

    I thought the defender was probably more aggressive, would have been quite soft to give a foul against Emunike.

    As they showed at half time, clipped his legs and pulled him back.

    Ah fair enough, I must have been out of the room when they showed that. From the initial action and the replays at the time it looked decent (strong, but fair).
