Best Nations Cup Match Ever by blasterman(m): 12:56am On Feb 03, 2013 |
my best nations cup match was Nig vs Cam (2002) in which JJ scored that great freekick against cameroun. also the second goal scored by john utaka was very sweeting. ghana vs guinea (titi camara was reigning then)very interesting nigeria vs morroco (george findi goal) most upseting ghana vs nigeria (senegal 92 abedi pele yeye header) cameroun vs nigeria (2:2 with controvesial victor ikpeba penalty) |

@Blasterman: Okocha and Utaka's goals against Cameroon were scored in AFCON 2004, not the 2002 AFCON. My best Nations Cup matches were the Nigeria v Tunisia (2000); Nigeria v Senegal (2000); Nigeria v SA (2000); Nigeria v SA (2004); Nigeria v Cameroon (2004) and Nigeria v Tunisia (2006). Those games were thoroughly enthralling, with great technical skills displayed by the Super Eagles. |

blasterman: Yeah, Aghahowa rescued the game for Nigeria with his 2 goals. I remember Oliseh starting d game from the bench because of malaria. |

I will also add Cote D' Ivoire v Cameroon (2006 quarter final). That game was goalless at the end of 90 minutes, but Cote D' Ivoire scored first in extra time before Cameroon equalized. Eventually, the Ivoriens prevailed in a marathon penalty shootout, winning by 21-20. I think that shootout holds d record as the longest ever in a FIFA- sanctioned international tourney. 1 Like |

Most of u guys just started watching footbal...all memories were from 2000. Nothing in modern football is comparable to Ghana Vs CIV at senegal 1992 final and Nigeria Vs CIV Tunisia 1994. Algiers 90 final match beteen Nigeria and Algeria was a classic. Though Nigeria Vs Cameroun at the 2000 edidtion was beyond the ordinary. While Tunsia vs CIv when Drogba lost that penalty to hand over the cup to Tunisia was emphatic. 1 Like |
