LESSONS FROM NIGERIA VS ARGENTINA

LESSONS FROM NIGERIA VS ARGENTINA...

Nigeria 1 - 2 Argentina. I waited until the end of the match before creating a content for today, because I intended to learn and expound a lesson from whatever outcome that is realised. I write with a heavy heart now, but I learnt, and I console every other Nigerian who is in the same fit with me at the moment. Two lessons surface:

1. KEEP ASKING QUESTIONS
Argentina kept on asking questions of us, sometimes unnecessary questions that were not to be entertained. They pressurized our team, pushed us to the board and gave no breathing space. The effect was that they were able to score their winning goal in good time to see them through the group. They picked holes of our defence and buried their opportunity well in the net. I could go on analyzing this but the paramount thing of note here is that - when you keep on asking questions, you will find breakthrough. Each attempt draws you nearer to your to success and achievement.



2. NEVER LOSE BELIEF
Here, Argentina were on the brink of eviction, lose or draw the match and they are gone - back to their home where they rightly belong, b7t they believed. They had a uniform belief even in the face of the imminent threat that it may be their last match. It was this belief that led them to ask questions of the Nigerian team. It was this belief that stirred them up to continue hammering until they found a Marcos Rojo breakthrough. It would serve well to Imbibe such culture of belief.
In essence, and as much as it pains to write this, it is only of ultimate necessity that we learn of this defeat to Nigeria. To advance in life, it is also important we learn of every situation either victory or defeat. We will only get better. Learn and apply these principles. It is over for Nigeria at the World Cup for now.
