Mikel Obi is a far greater player than Okocha ever was. Football no be to come dey dance for field dey do unnecessary skills wey no get end product.




Lol.. We started watching football from the days of Emmanuel okala, Harrison mecha and kunle awesu.. Where was your grand father then. Doubt he had even started growing pubic hair

Indomie generation like you that always get your info online through google, cos if really you watched Emmanuel Okala like you claimed to, it mean you know mathematical Odegbami, and Co. it invariably meant that you watched Okocha and its the more reason why you don't need to say KANU was better than Okocha.

Dude, its my opinion and if it doesn't suites you shove it up your dry ass. I watched okocha, I watched Mikel. In my opinion, Mikel was/is way better and more useful in the national team.

Okocha follow kill us that day with some unnecessary dribbling and showboating. But the cameroonians played very very well
go an re-watch the match, the Camerounians actually started well and scored two goals, but after okocha and Chukwu ndukwe equalised, the Cameroonians were under ropes, poor scoring touch killed Nigeria, we were not in any way outplayed.... that was also the greatest generation of Cameroun players. Mind u SE came from energy sapping quarter finals against stubborn Senegalese team. they actually tried, but penalty shootout is anybody game

Not true.He was our best performer that day and he capped it with a thunderous shot of a goal(Our 2nd of the day and the equalizer) after Raphael Chukwu Ndukwe had reduced the deficit to 2-1.Truth remains that the Cameroonian side were the best that year because penalty kicks are a lottery.
The pain for me was not just the Ikpeba's refusal to celebrate(NO THANKS TO NO USE OF VAR THEN),but also that was the 3rd time Cameroon would beat us in the finals(Maroc '88 being the most annoying as Henry Nwosu's call for a penalty was overturned only for a mirror-image of same foul to be awarded on bringing down Roger Milla which Emma Kunde duly converted). THAT CUP WAS FIRST SHOWCASED IN 1980 IN LAGOS AND IT SHOULD HAVE REMAINED(THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN OUR THIRD AS WELL) AND FINALLY ISSA HAYATOU'S(FORMER CAF PRESIDENT) SINISTER AGENDA AGAINST US PAID OFF(THE 2 NATIONS CUP BAN ALTHOUGH 1996 WAS A WITHDRAWAL VIA LATE GEN.SANI ABACHA'S ORDER,1998 WAS WELL CALCULATED).HAD WE BEEN TO ONE OF THESE TWO CONSIDERING OUR POST USA'94 FORM AND ABUNDANCE OF STARS PLAYING TOP FLIGHT THEN THAT VERSION OF THE AFCON CUP WOULD HAVE RESTED IN NIGERIA BEFORE 2000.

After that Victor Ikpeba penalty wasn’t counted
The goal was "counted" ten years later.
