MARCOS ROJO CHEATS NIGERIA FOR ARGENTINA IN RUSSIA

2ND HALF OF NIGERIA VERSUS ARGENTINA'S MATCH AT THE 2018 WORLD CUP IN RUSSIA

BY ABDULMUMINI ADEKU..

1ST MINUTE:The Super Eagles came into the 2nd half with what appears some sort of renewed determination to carry the day as Jude Odion Ighalo replaces a rather misfiring Kelechi Iheanacho..

2nd minute:a throw in by Ahmed Musa  forces a corner kick.

The kick is taken and this leads to Leon Balogun been fell and a penalty was awarded to the Super Eagles of Nigeria by the no nonsense looking referee.

200 million Nigerians held their breath as they waited as the die was cast  and Victor Moses  paused a little to gauge his moves  and he moved to kick as he sends the goalkeeper the wrong way neatly as a roaring and yearning audience back home in Nigeria  welcomes the equalizer..

8th minutes:Musa waltz through the Argentine back four but was somehow crowded out and had to pass  the ball as the Argies recovered from the shock of the pocket sized  battle ship from Nigeria.

13th minute:Musa ghost past his marker ,shirted jersey number  14 for Argentina but his pass was smothered away by the quick Argentines ..

16th minute:a wave of attack led to an Argentine predictably finding Messi who was crowded out by the Nigerians..

17th minute:a great pass from Musa to Ighalo saw the latter losing possession

24th minute:an aimless kick by De Maria showed the frustration was setting in on the Albieceleste as wellwith the game becoming more tighter at this stage

25th minute:a quick wave of attack betwen John Obi Mikel ,Musa and a fiery pile driver by Wilfred Ndidi almost resulted into a 2nd goal for Nigeria but you know what they say nearly does not kill a bird..

27th minute:a corner was taken by Argentina and this was wasted amidst confusion setting in on the latinos..

29th minute:what appeared like a penalty after Musa initiated a smart move for Ighalo led to a foul by an Argentine but which was not given by the referee review..

35 th minute:a quick attack at Nigeria's goal saw the Argies kicking wide over the bar

39th minute:a free kick by  Etebo almost hit target as it rammed into the side of the net .

41th minute:a well crafted ball from the touch line saw an unmarked Argentine strike in NIgeria 's  vital area and the Albieceleste scored the winner.

four minutes of added time was awarded with Lionel Messi given a yellow card in the 3rd minute of injury time perhaps may be to buy Nigeria's emotions by FIFA.
