This hypocrite Africa journalists.
Did they hype Mboma's goal, now they are comparing.

Guy, be fair in your statements. In Mboma's days, all these social media gadgets were not rife.

Mboma's goal was fantastic and would have gotten the attention of the media if it was scored today.

Social media is doing the greatness of past players a big harm. Many things they did that we are not aware of.

Inferiority complex, that's what it's called. Africans should learn to celebrate Africans when they excel. Nobody is going to do it for us. Mboma's goal is highly spectacular. Africans are equally gifted like their counterparts in Europe when it comes to football or sports generally

Inferiority complex, U say ? It's my choice bro, my choice

So why did that stupid Nigeria journalist compared that time with now.

What he simply meant was that, Mboma's goal was not hyped like Ronaldo's own, whereas there is nothing to compare.

It couldn't have been hyped because when Mboma was playing, most of us didn't have internet in our houses, much-less our phones.

But we all knew Mboma to be a nice player, we didn't just see all his exploits, like this one.

The reporter shouldn't have bring it up to compare.
The reason he did that was to ridicule Ronaldo's effort that an ordinary African player has done it before.

What will happen if we start recounting different players that have scored such goal?

Ronaldo deserves the hyping of his goal because he earned it, a 4 time Player of the year scored a spectacular goal. That's what children yet unborn will read about him and marvel, not Mboma's effort.




There are many ways Mboma's goal would have been hyped.
The Picture of his finesse as his about to shoot the ball on the pages of newspaper.
Stickers.
Grafiti. (Like what was done concerning Van Persie's goal in World Cup '14)

This is not a celebration but a ridicule.

Assuming this reporter had shared this Mboma's goal, maybe during his birthday in the past year(s), then i will encourage this, but to bring it up after Ronaldo did same and compare it with the great Ronaldo's own? Na.


I wouldn't be surprise if the reporter is a fan of messi.

Accepted, alot of players has done the overhead kick but that of Ronaldo is spectacular because no player has jump so high to do the kick and hitting the net.
