Before 2002 WC. . . . 0-0 draw at Loftus Road. . . that was Ogbeche's debut.

i thought ogbeche's debut was against Ireland at Loftus Road, correct me please. (Sodje and the Opabummis) undecided

oh, i just got it, it ended 2 : 2

Nigeria and Paraguay drew 2-2 in an international friendly match played in London prior to the 2002 World Cup in Korea and Japan

(1.) Nah, the Ireland match was Ogbeche's recall in 2005. . . if you remember correctly, that was Martins debut. . . Martins could not have made his debut in 2002.

(2.) The match ended 1-1. . . my bad. . . . I recall the match. . . that website is yarning nonsense.

I dont know why you folks keep degrading the talents our footballers have, especially the currrent crop. ok, agreed , our outing over the last african nations cup was a disater but was it their fault? or fault of the inept, below average coach and equally senceless NFF we have.

igerian footballers have always been respected individually around the globe, we know individuals only dont make the team but individuals that work as a unit and thats where employing a highly techinical, exposed and experienced coash come in to play, coaches like Guss hiddink amongst others, then again, which coach will want to work under the canopy of a crazed NFF that we have, whose job description
is embezzlement, nepotism, mismanagemnet and other crazy characteristics of a crooked organisation.

The world cup comes every 4 years, it is expected that any respected organistation is fully prepared in the areas of hiring a reputable coach, and coaching staff, launching footbal academies to bring up new crop of players for the next 4 yreas and beyong and allowing access to thecoach and stop interfaring in the selection of the team. i remenber saying this exact thing 4 years ago and i can bet my life we gonna be in the same situation, 4, 8, 12 and beyond.

Nigeria is a team capable of winning the world cup, if we decide to get our house in order, afterall, greece in the 1994 world cup never scared a goal in the tournament, and some years later, they end up winning the euro championship, England didnt qualify for the last Euro but they were amonst the highest scring qualifying toward to the world cup in south africa , nigeia can do the same, but then again this is nigeria we talking about

Why can't we be real and original. Because the Ghanian experiment has worked now means moving all those lads up. while this is a step in the right direction, i hope it is done right. i advise every Nigerian to look past the world cup. Miracles don't happen in football anymore, as you lay your bed so you lie on it.

Yobo used to be our most regular defenders in Europe, but as for now I don't know what is happening to him. Didnt see him against Chelsea and Man U. May be he is no longer regular ,
Re: Nigeria Drop Kanu And Yobo For Paraguay Friendly by Olaolufred(m): 10:38am On Feb 22, 2010
Part of PDP politics towards 2011.
By politics, Ndanusa is Minister of sport.
By Politics, Sani Lulu is the NFF chairman
By Politics, NFF signed contract with "Berti Voodoo"
By politics, Berti has 20 days mandate in Europe, and 10 days in Nigeria.
By Politics, Amodu stepped in.
By politics, NFF made all Nigerian sick of watching Eagle play.
By politics, Yar'adua can rule from grave.
In Nigeria, unthinkable things happen.
I already shifted my focus to other countries i believe will give me something to cheer in SA.
I have already consoled myself.
Can't die of any hypertension.
SA, here comes Spain, Cote Divoire, Ghana etal.
