Good try my friend and I trust you don't belong to the indomie generation or those that have their passport photographs on their WAEC//GCE certificates grin

Back to the issue, you didn't exactly get it correctly. It had to do with the fact that he conceded 7 goals against the 'Galacticos' Real Madrid in a la liga game in the early 90s. Then he was the number 1 goal keeper at Rayo Vallecano.

That's it...

Cheers grin grin grin

You never said this when he was alive!

in fact he was not a performer, he let in too many goals and was on occasion accused of bribing his way into the team.

When did you start watching football? Are you talking of the Wilfred Agbonivbare who played with Stephen Keshi, Henry Nwosu and Humphrey Edobor in New Nigerian Bank, winning the Wafu cup several times, or playing with Abiola Babes with Dominic Iorfa, Toyin Ayinla, Yisa Shofoluwe et al?

When did he conceed the goals? Did you watch the world cup qualifier between Naija and Cote D'Ivoire when we beat them 4-1 in Lagos after he pulled off more than 5 saves in the first 10 minutes of that match and close to 20 saves overall?

Or the 1-1 draw we played with Algeria that put us through to our first world cup?

Wilfred was one of Nigeria's best goalkeepers. Babies like you who never watched a game that NNB played at Ogbe stadium in Benin or National Stadium in Surulere will come here to talk what they don't know.
