 Welcome back. Time to talk football right here on the breakfast. It's a season of football, of course, with the African Nations Cup ongoing in Cameroon. But we cannot forget about the World Cup Qatar 2022 is around the corner. And as far as the African qualifying process is concerned, the teams are now at the playoff stage. And we've been served an interesting menu, Ghana versus Nigeria, one country only out of the two to go to the next World Cup. We have joining us live via Zoom on the breakfast right here on PlusCB Africa, Sports Journalists and Communications Director Van Drezer Football Club, Mighty George. Mighty George, it's great to have you back on the breakfast. It's going to be here as well. Thanks for having me. I was going to start with a question, Ghana versus Nigeria, who will win? But I don't know if I should ask you that question because I think you already know what answer you will give. But I'm Ghanaian by parentage. I was born in Nigeria. Oh, wow. Okay. So you better watch your answer. But who will win at the end of the day? Like you said, the answer already. The funny thing is that both teams are trying to get their acts together after, you'd say, you know, a competition's mishap. Ghana only leaving one state before Nigeria, who had the most promising team. And this has actually failed field of rivalry. The rivalry is always quite exciting. Sometimes it gets very dirty on social media. But there's a two great football insights. But the thing that they have in common now is that they get to decide on who the coach will be. So the coach would actually determine the sort of players that will be invited and the sort of strategies that will be used. It's a good thing. It's a double header. It's over two legs, the first leg on the 2016 Ghana. And then four days later, actually, 24th and then 28th. So there's that opportunity for both sides to put up a good performance on all the soil. But like I said, they need to first have a coach. And then, you know, we'll see where they go from there. But Nigeria, obviously, since we started qualifying for the World Cup in 1994, you know, we've missed only one. That was in 2006, which, of course, that's Angola misfortune. But ever since then, it's almost been like our best fight for Ghana. Well, they're just afraid to qualify for the World Cup. It's become a bomb now for Ghana, not to qualify for the World Cup. But I'm sure that desperation will be there this time to qualify. And what a match of this prediction. Obviously, I'd say Nigeria, because of what we showed in the group stage of the Afghan, it shows that we have the players, you know, the technicalities as well, to get past Ghana. But who pilots the team? It's a big question now. This is West Africa and Derby, if you want to call it, these are two English speaking nations in West Africa who have a lot in common. You know, and what they say usually is that Derby's don't follow the form guide. Ghana abysmal at the Nation's Cup. Going out, as you said, in the group stage is losing to a first-timer, Komoros of all nations at the Nation's Cup. Nigeria didn't play badly, but also a bit disappointing, but fed way better than the Ghanians at the Nation's Cup. And the team seems to be, you know, okay. Do you expect that the form of both nations at the African Nation's Cup will still reflect in this playoff? Well, recent form, of course, you definitely get into that. I think so, I think so. And that's why I'm very particular about the coach of the side. Remember, I in interviews with the Super Bowl players, they did say, we're playing better on the positive level because he gives us a freedom of expression that we didn't have, you know, on the general throw. By the way, we're hearing might just be coach of, you know, Ghana, which is, you know, that will be very, very interesting to see the former coach of, you know, Nigeria will be the coach of Ghana. So it depends on that coach. It definitely depends on, you know, who handles the team, and if they can still give them that room to play and express themselves. It's a new look, super e-goals, very much different from what we saw in the past three years. Even though Ghana draws from getting the job done, this guy's also got a job done, and they felt to, you know, and experience that as well. Let's give it to Tunisia. They won the tournament about twice. They had no push over. So it was just a battle of who, you know, which mentality and also which then tacticality progressed at the end of the day. And Nigeria's obviously have a better form for Ghana. I don't know how they're going to regroup right now. Let's talk about, you know, bringing back as a man again. There's still a lot of time for us, you know, some days ago. So they still need to structure that team because obviously what happened in Cameroon was a show of shame. It showed that the Ghanaians was not, it was not a team. You shouldn't look to the cameras. So they have more work to be done. The Ghanaians, but like you said, it's a West African team. And even the least prepared team, when it comes to that day, they know that, oh, I'm facing Nigeria, I'm facing Ghana. So it's going to be a very, very tough one. But Nigeria on paper obviously looked like, you know, the better side and we're happy of our hands. Who knows. All right. All right. We can take this officially as a wager, or bet between you and I. And you and Lagos, I mean Lagos. So let's see if Nigeria wins, I will. I also win when Nigeria wins. But because of this, I'll buy you lunch at any restaurant of your choice in Lagos. And if Ghana wins, you buy me lunch at any restaurant of my choice in Lagos. Yeah, yeah, I will. I mean, you get to choose what you want. I should be able to choose what I want from you, right? Absolutely. All right. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. And Mighty George is a sports journalist and of course, a communications director of Vandreza FC with excellent, excellent analysis right here. We're always glad to have you and hope to have you next time, George. Thank you very much. Thank you. Thank you. All right. And that's the size of a package on the breakfast this morning.
