Chukwumagordian: That was exactly the one that happened. The mother even screamed from the crowd "Thunder Balogun, remember your left leg!" So he kick the ball with his left leg, then played the boot off his right. This is an essential part of Nigerian history 4 Likes 2 Shares |

I won't be shocked if the story got to India too. Whoever fabricated that story deserves a national award the person made our childhood sweet. There was this guy who swore that he watched it back then, he swore with his father's head. Even me too swore when I wanted to tell someone else the story 3 Likes |
