Nigeria vs South Africa
Ivory Coast vs Congo

I predict it’ll be a Nigeria vs Ivory Coast final. I think that’s what neutrals want to see, t’d be a really entertaining final.
Nigeria will be my prediction in this game because, all their players that started this AFCON competition from the beginning to showcased some good performance for them to reach semi-final are well ready to face south Africa today which I know they will win the game with many goals to beat South Africa.

But the game between Ivory coast vs Congo will going to be a tough game that will lead to penalty shootout and ivory coast will not embrace the luck they embraced from the Senegal through penalty shootout today because, it will end for the favour of Congo to celebrate to be among the teams that qualified for final stage.
Nigeria Super Eagle would defeat Bafana Bafana of South African, It obvious the Nigerian team has the most solid defence line in this competition and tactically play a fast counterattack style of play into their opponent territory with the pacy Osimhen spearheading their attack and some analyst believe the South Africans plays fast football which can win the match for them, however the Nigerian team knows how to calm down any fast playing tactical approach which the South Africans may wanted to adopt, meanwhile in the second match between Congo vs Ivory coast is quite a dicey match though the host country would capitalize on home advantage, however at this stage of the competition I don't think home advantage would make any difference.

Don't let anybody opinion with regards to  your course of study demoralize you, Economic is a very good course and I believe the speaker who discourage people not to study Economic should be specific with his advice possibly in his country there might be few opportunity for Economist which prompted his interview, however in my country a graduate Economist can be employ by any bank provided that such graduate pass out with a very good grade and other financial institutions too sought after that profession if the graduate has other relevant certifications that is another big advantage for such a graduate.

Now it is open,wide open the Premier League after Liverpool was defeated by Arsenal.Now Manchester City has real chances of bouncing back yet I think despite the lost game against Arsenal,Liverpool is still the strong contender to win the title.They have been the most consistent team no matter this bad last game they had.Most likely the players of Liverpool have been impacted by Klopp decision to leave though I think in the upcoming games they will start winning again.
I think Klopp's decision has affected the players in a positive way because they definitely want to win this season and let Klopp remember this season for the rest of his life.

Although desire alone will definitely not be enough to win, much more is needed for this, and for this we definitely cannot lose at home to Arsenal, but it happened and now City must take advantage of it. They beat Brentford last night and are now just one win away from topping the table again. All of City's leaders are back in squard, and they are ready to win.
Honestly I would have preferred Klopp to make the announcement of imminent departure towards the end of the season when Liverpool must have been ready to win the title though I respect his decision, however from my own point of view is that his sudden announcement of purported departure is already affecting the team by damping their morale which is affecting their  performance on the field recall Liverpool had always had an upper hand against Arsenal in all competition even in last month FA Cup they defeated the gunners but last weekend they became a shadow of former self infact could only register a single shot on goal that is unacceptable performance for a title contenders.

Nigeria has the potential of winning next tomorrow's game against South Africa, but only if they could play a more calculative game of scoring more goals and not the usual pattern of one goal
Nigeria will be playing against South Africa in their next match. Seriously, if I am predicting the winner of the match, then I will be choosing Nigeria to win. The Super Eagles performance has increased recently, and the only problem that I notice is that they are always finding it difficult to score goals in most of their matches, which they should try to fix, but their defense is kind of strong, which I am sure they will be able to hold South Africa down, and Nigeria are having dangerous strikers, so I just think Nigeria has higher chances of winning the match than South Africa, but in football anything is possible, so we should just wait and see the result of the match.
the Super Eagles are impressively clinical throughout. so i'm confident they'll get a win over South Africa. The Eagles seem to be in good command of the tournament; all they need is a bit more encouragement. i mean they have everything it takes to beat South Africa.
But as you know in football, surprises can happen, and Nigeria might face a tough challenge from South Africa in the semis! but fingers crossed for Nigeria to emerge as the winner in the Nigeria vs. South Africa match-up that's all.
In as much the Super Eagle defence remain solid as it was in all their previous matches I don't think the South Africans Bafana Bafana stand any chance of scoring a goal against the Nigerian team, they assembled one of the best defense line in the competition and with some of the  best attackers though had not been scoring wide margin goals yet they always take up their chances to score goals I believe that is where they have an edge over the South Africans and the fact that they are aiming to lift the AFCON trophy the Super Eagle would go for an outright win as it is now they are definitely a major contender of the trophy having eliminated the likes of Cameroon and Angola.
125  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Pay off DEBT by do Gambling? think again before you loss more on: February 05, 2024, 04:04:49 PM


The valuable message that can be taken from my friend above is never take risks to gamble to pay off your debts, the pressure is very big, the chance is very small that you can pay off your debts, often you end up losing even more and losing your money. look for loans, sell your valuables or look for part-time work to pay off your debts, is a good way rather than playing the small money you have in gambling
I think after your friend had exhausted every option and every possible means to get more money to pay his rent opted for gambling which is the greatest mistake he made according to this proverb "a bird at hand is worth two in the bush" meaning he should have kept that money if possible pay half of the rent money and seek for other means to pay off his balance truly working part-time is also a good option unfortunately in his bid to pay his dept squandered the remaining money on gambling thus adding more to his problems, I think story is wake up call to gamblers who intended to follow that method to completely avoid that means of debt repayment.

Truly that fixed matches scam is very common among telegram users,  I can't imagine how people fell to this simple trick of scam, how can I get some fictitious scores from anonymous individuals telling me to pay some money for some fixed matches honestly that is a red flag to me I can never subscribe to that type of channel because I knew from onset is a scam  infact majority of the telegram fixed matches providers do ask for upfront payment before they release those fixtures I believe that is blatant lie of course some of after receiving payment they consequently blocked their subscribers or release a fake fixture saying it's a sure one.

Liverpool got a red card late in the match, although I was hoping they could equalise, as is often the case in the EPL... Now the battle for the lead will be even more interesting... If Man City pick up six points in the next two matches, they can get to the top of the standings... Then there will be three leaders and the EPL will be even more interesting...
After Arsenal hard-fought win against Liverpool today the title has become a three horse race with Man City completing the trio clubs likely title winner, definitely it going to be one of the toughest contest, meanwhile Arsenal rose up to occasion in today's match as usual many soccer analyst and pundits had already predicted Liverpool to win based on the past records between the two with liver having an upper hand but today Arsenal proved them.wrong with a brilliant performance by winning 3-1 to close their gap to a narrow two points thus opening the title bid among the three contestants.its was a entertainment match after both teams tried to break their defense unfortunately costly mistakes by each side defenders gifted each team a goal.
128  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Learning comes before earning on: February 04, 2024, 03:42:44 PM
Some of us want to make fast money without even thinking of learning. This is why we have been seeing people looking for a faster way to earn more online without putting any effort. It is good for us to understand the concept of making money before we actually think of how to start making money for ourselves. The simple way to make money is to be disciplined. Those that understand and had been using the word discipline must have achieved so many things before they realize it.
Those who think they will be able to make money in an easy and fast way certainly don't think about the process they have to go through to be able to make money online without making any effort. Yes, of course we have to understand the process we have to go through to be able to make money. on our own, because if we don't have any preparation and we try straight away then it is very difficult to be able to get any income from what we have tried, in making money of course we have to be disciplined in any case because if we just do as we please we certainly won't get satisfactory results and can even harm ourselves.
Unfortunately those newbies who wanted to make money very fast got burnt and got liquidated quickly due to lack of knowledge many of them don't want to persevere and undergo the rigorous and time consuming learning path towards becoming a profitable trader, myself a trader even after many years of learning I have not yet attain my aim yet I am still learning everyday on twitter, learning chart analysis, patterns as well as backtesting everything I learnt on twitter and I have the believe and hope that someday I would start earning consistently from my hardwork and effort I am not after earning now, I knew wellwith time and concerted effort I would become a successful and profitable trader in no distant future.
129  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What's the view of an average citizen About crypto currencies on: February 04, 2024, 02:22:42 PM
Many people consider cryptocurrencies to be a fraudulent investment tool, while some see it as an investment that can yield quick profits by merely investing. In our country, news programs only cover cryptocurrency when someone falls victim to a scam involving it. In contrast, in other countries, developments such as the acceptance of Bitcoin as payment by a business or area are seen as positive news that deserves coverage.
That is exactly how people think about Bitcoin in my city some believe it's more like a Ponzi scheme due to it price fluctuation, some set of people never believe in any form of online or digital currency they classified it as fraud probably it's due to their lack of exposure and not knowledgeable about digital currency unfortunately some would never succumb to pressure in accepting it, they only believe in fiat thus deals with bank directly this is common among the elderly individuals, however some set of enlightened young individuals mostly youths and highly educated ones believe in crypto currencies and infact invested in it, though I believe with time there is going to be gradual adoption of crypto currencies.
130  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think women will make better gamblers by their nature? on: February 04, 2024, 02:13:56 PM
Women by nature are more conservative than men. They are better manager of resources and know how to prioritise things. This is what is needed for successful gambling because with it, the chances of using funds meant for basic needs in gambling will be minimised.

So do you think women will make better gamblers than men?
I think women don't have the gut to take the kind of risk men take in gambling yes of course they are good manager of resources notwithstanding that wouldn't make them a good gambler, I believe there are many gambling opportunities that they suppose to take but out of fear and in a bid to manage their resources would forgo those opportunities, therefore it's take being strong minded and bold to be involved in gambling, even some men gamblers do fear to take some risks how much more women who would rather opt for other means of spending their hard earn money rather than to gamble with it that is why few women are involved in gambling so those few involved are not different from men.
131  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: February 04, 2024, 02:00:49 PM
Today Manchester United will face West Ham United at Old Trafford, yesterday's victory against Wolves is certainly a motivation for the Manchester United players to continue their positive trend. However, in this match I also hope that Erik Ten Hag includes Kobbie Mainoo in the starting line up. Kobbie is increasingly confident about being part of Manchester United. He can prove himself if he continues to receive support. Bruno as the captain also appreciated Kobbie who saved them in the last match. West Ham in their last 5 matches did not get maximum results so the possibility of visiting Old Trafford headquarters is their mission to be able to play better. West Ham usually adapts when they face big teams like when they faced Arsenal and come out as winners. Therefore, Manchester United needs to be alert at this time because West Ham will not be easily beaten.
I think this match will be competitive and will be very aggressive. Manchester United are winless in their last few matches at Old Trafford. However, Manchester United's impressive win against Wolves in the last match can boost confidence. Meanwhile, West Ham are on a five-match winless streak with a draw with Bournemouth on Thursday night. In the last two meetings between the two sides, West Ham won both times. Manchester United will have the home field advantage. But I think both teams will score in the match. My prediction is that the match will likely be a draw, with both teams sharing the points.

Manchester United is a strong team but their performances are very erratic. At the moment, West Ham team is more in form than Manchester United. West Ham is sixth in the points table and Manchester United is eighth. I forget the last time West Ham lost a game. Although it is Manchester United's home match, their chances of winning are low in this match. My prediction is that the match will be a 2-2 draw. If there is no draw, West Ham will win. Considering the home match, Manchester United cannot be called favorites.
If Manchester United and West Ham are to be predicted with these two teams, the result indicates a draw match. according to your prediction the match will be a 2-2 draw but in my opinion the match will be a 1-1 or 0-goal draw. today every match is arranged very fair every match will be tight most difficult match will be Arsenal vs Liverpool. I am very excited to watch this match. there is a high possibility of a draw in this match as well, otherwise Liverpool can snatch the win.
I don't think any of those matches would ended up in a draw the results could go either way Man Utd remain inconsistent in their performance I cannot vouch they that they would defeat West Ham theysy win or lose the visitors too had always been a thorn in the flesh of Man Utd of course they can win it or lose the match thus I think both teams can defeat each other likewise the match between Arsenal vs Liverpool the match is definitely going to be a tough match and both teams knew that a draw would be a major setback for both team in their title bid thus either team would push for an outright win therefore I think either of the would win to consolidate their title bid.

Tottenham cannot be completely trusted, they failed to maintain their victory and lost 2 points again, Everton managed to improve the situation in the added minute of stoppage time. A very dramatic match, it was very painful to see this opportunity wasted, now they also have the opportunity to be knocked back from fourth place by Aston Villa. I think Everton were lucky in the final minutes, they didn't give up to get points, the mentality they showed was quite good, even though in the first half they couldn't do much.
And the sad part about the game was Tottenham were the first ones to knock on the doors of Everton with an early goal from Richarlison. They've always gotten this problem of scoring early and conceding in the game which is synonymous with how Arsenal play. Is it that it's because it was an early kick off as we know that it usually affects games in England that we'd blame for this poor performance or is it the fact that Tottenham Hotspur need to work more on themselves, I just don't get it.
Tottenham played well in this match, but they were a little unlucky with the goal at the end of the match scored by Everton to equalize and indeed those were crucial minutes where many players had lost a lot of concentration.
Overall, it wasn't just Tottenham's performance that was bad, but the Everton team was starting to recover from their downturn and in this match they played very well in front of their own supporters, this was a fair result for both teams after playing fiercely.
I wouldn't blame Tottenham for their draw against Everton I believe at this point it would be absolutely difficult to play Everton who had been fighting hard to escape relegation after their 10 points deduction you can see that whenever they trail Tottenham they fought back to equalized in the extra time unfortunately they drew the match and now third to the last on the table i.e back to relegation zonenI hope the team would continue to fight out of relegation, meanwhile Richarlison who  two goals for Everton didn't celebrate and jubilate against his former club that shows a full respect for his former club.

Good day guys, how is the gambling industry helping you this period?

However I just want to say that in the game world gamblers are always there to bet and the important thing here is when a gambler can not risk he also can not win, true or false?
Many might still believe that a gamblers who's just gambling at the first day might end up winning w huge amount of money that he wasn't expecting but the truth is that as long as you stake on bet you have already risk your money, be it big or small.
Every thing worth doing in life involve risk taking even the life we live on is risk itself because there are some certain action we have to take which hopefully would prompt positive outcome likewise in gambling too risk must be taken to guarantee some profits, however risk taking varies the lesser the risk the better though expected massive profit demand high risk personally I prefers taking small risk and earn reasonable profit thus the bottom line is you can never earn anything in gambling without taking any risk however only gamble with the amount of money you can afford to lose with a small risk.
134  Economy / Economics / Re: Tech Layoffs on: February 03, 2024, 12:32:36 PM
Not a day goes by without a tech company announcing major job cuts. Today Paypal and Block (both payment service providers) have announced a total of 3500 job cuts, and recently Salesforce, Microsoft, SAP, Google, Ebay etc. have also done so. According to https://layoffs.fyi, 25,000 documented tech jobs have already been cut this year.

What do you think? Is it just a shrinkage and normalization after the strong build-up of the workforce during Corona or a long-term trend that will accelerate through the use of AI?

Poor sales by those companies which is due to drop in purchasing power of their customers prompted the downsizing of their workforce,  I don't think AI influence was responsible for their decision  to lay off, of course when the global economy pick up majority of those companies would start another round of recruitment into various positions,  meanwhile Tech jobs are one of the most sought after profession presently so I believe in no distant future all the lay off staff would definitely get a new job offer as I am aware that there many Tech start up springing out globally this would also provide job opportunities for the sacked workers.
135  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Africa Football Discussion || Current Topic: AFCON 2023 on: February 02, 2024, 08:43:49 PM
Simon have been the most active player for Nigeria, he has really played his role. I am disappointed with Zaidu and Iwobi who I see as the weakest links in this Nigerian team. Nigeria lead by just a goal which is not safe, we need another goal in this game to feel safe because Angola are still in the game and can change things in a split second. Osimhen playing well but not as active as he was against Cameroon. Lookman remains our best finisher so far. It will be big if Nigeria make it through.
Zaidu could be said to have disappointed most of us and I say that because, he had a good head start in a ball, similar to what Moses Simon had with Osimhen well positioned to receive a pass and take the shot on goal but, Zaidu rather chose to be selfish and played the ball off target.
Iwobi on the other hand, I can’t say I have been impressed by him in other games but today, with the way he managed the midfield, distributing passes, I enjoyed his game play. Very little mistakes came from him in today’s fixtures.
Osimhen is someone that I remain hopeful to always create something spectacular but, it’s often amazes me how a striker of his quality isn’t getting goals on a regular run this fixture. He ought to be netting these balls. I get the fact that, he’s got defenses built about him but, he also gets those chances too and isn’t making good use of them.

Zaidu needs to step up his game, he was not impressive Nigeria would have scored more goals through his counter attacks.Ola Aina has been impressive but needs to be releasing ball fast to our midfielders or  attacks on time.
Nigeria played good football defence was solid, midfield tried and attack was biting seriously from both wingers. I think there is a big  chance for Nigeria to lift the Afcon in this year edition with the quality they have at their disposal.

Honestly Zaidu Sanusi doesn't merit a starting first eleven for the Super Eagle unfortunately he has to play and must be included into the team to fill the quota system, of course a Northerner must be in the squad usually it was Ahmed Musa, throughout this tournament his performance was below average, I think nothing can be done about it Peseiro just have to continue to him, Nwobi wasn't impressive too he easily lose ball possession and played wrong passes too, above all it was a good tactical display by the Super Eagle, I am particularly impressed with their defence line which I believe is the best in this AFCON competition looking forward their next match.
136  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Binary Trade Better or Better to Buy and Hold Bitcoin? on: February 02, 2024, 04:30:12 PM
I have been in a dilemma for some time now. Do I invest Bitcoin or I will start binary trade. I could not understand anything. Sometimes I feel like doing binary trade. I think that if I don't lose it, it goes around in my mind. But I did a lot of messing with Bitcoin. And read many websites and articles. After seeing everything and I have been around in the crypto world for a long time. I have experience on Bitcoin because Bitcoin 2022 was priced a lot. But now 2023 he is going to Bitcoin and at the beginning of this 24th and I am growing. For that I ask you for feedback if you give your valuable ideas then what is better for me because I have been in conflict with Aibitcoin and Binary Trade for a long time. But in many places I see that I have people and some they are making a lot of money.
To be very honest binary trading is very risky from personal experience I am of the opinion that binary options is more like gambling that why I quit trading binary and switched to trading therefore I advice you to hodl your Bitcoin in secure wallet for a long term perspective definitely you would earn some decent profits, however if some people are making a lot of money from binary thatvis not a yardstick to force yourself into binary options probably they are lucky to earn some money infact I prefer you learn trading while hodling your Bitcoin in a wallet after some period of learning thereafter you can start trading which I believe is more preferable to binary options

As a bitcoin  trader and holder one should never settle for less


It's a fact traders would always aim for more profits after increasing their portfolio and asset, for instance a read stories of some forex traders who are funded by Prop firms after some profitable runs they gradually increase their funded account portfolio to aim for a higher profits, personally I started taking their footsteps though I started with a small funded account hopefully buy more higher amount of funded account as I progress in trading journey because my aim and ambition is to become a six figure funded account owner in the nearest future of course more profit for me if I successful achieve that aim of course I won't aim for less.

I don't blame or hate myself in any case of losing a/some bet afterall I bet with the amount of money I can afford to lose and I can only feel a sense of aggressiveness towards some people at moment after some time I would forget about my losses and move on of course I did my analysis before placing my bets so if I lose I count myself unlucky, I have the believe that there are more opportunities ahead and in as much as  I have extra money to fund my account there is no qualms, Moreso I bet mostly on soccer matches so that means I only bet on weekends occasionally during midweek Uefa league matches matches thus that reduces the idea of betting everyday and prevent addiction to gambling.

Best to never tell anyone about your Bitcoins instead just your super close people that will learn that so you are safe from anything like this because in my country there is an incident where the victim was kidnapped and ask for crypto ransom but even the family paid the ransom yet the kidnappers killed him , that is why we should not give them our address and let the crypto died with you.
The issue is not about telling anyone about you possessing Bitcoin there are instances or cases where you live fine and modesty  yet suspicious would arose by some kidnappers thus might become source of target, I read a real story of a similar case of a victim who was a profitable and successful forex trader and live comfortable unfortunately was attacked by some kidnappers at gun point in his apartment his phone was checked and was forced to transfer all his crypto asset on Binance immediately else he would be shot dead, of course sensing the danger ahead he had no option than to succumb to their demand that is how he lost all his crypto asset, infact his attackers left he contacted Binance for a possibility of tracking the hoodlums.
