We all believe that lie then and to my surprise we never investigate it.
Indian was banned from football because of that voodoo football.

But there is this movie called kung-fu soccer that football actually turns to lion 🦁. Lol

Shaolin soccer, actually. But that movie was made in the 2000s..😊.

This lie has been passed from generation to generation. Infact,few yrs ago l told some ss3 students in my sch and they never doubted it because india has never refuted it and again indians don't play in WC again.

if Nigeria fit score one goal; Nigeria win. Ball dey change to tiger and lion. If our GK wan catch ball, na lion and tiger he dey see. Las las Nigeria score one goal even wen d ball turn tiger. Dem kill d player wey score d lone goal.

One story I totally believed while growing up.

It was said that the ball changed and shifted shape from stone, to lion to fire before Sam Okwaraji managed to kick it and scored the one goal that Nigeria needed to win a match they were losing by 99-0. How hilarious it is to believe such story.
They usually said this match was the reason India was banned from playing football.

I so believed the lie that I tried to replicate it in our street bottle cover match. I think I played one nigga up to 31 goals to nothing one time. I'm sure those amongst us that didn't believe the lie back then are great thinkers today and the rest of us mumu still dey believe say Nigeria go better someday when by default, we were designed to fail.

Okwaraji kicked the ball into the net despite the ball turning to a big stone, that led to Nigeria winning the match.

After okwaraji lift the cup, that was when he slumped and died.

Wow! One funny thing about the lie is that the person in most cases saying the lie will look very serious like he watched it. Our own super liar also added that anytime Nigerians want to play the ball, the ball will turn to either lion or stone.

We were told Emmanuel Okala the Super Eagles goalkeeper anytime he wants to catch the ball he would see 7 balls at the same time with the ball even turning into a Lion grin
And the striker Chris Ogedemgbe if he wants to score against India the ball will turn into a big stone.

Childhood back in the day was fun, we were free like birds, no one bordered about your whereabouts until dinner preparation time or when the Muslims will announce the evening Call to Prayer from the famous AHUJA Loudspeakers then we would be returning from the football pitch where all these stories, myths and mythology were spread looking very dirty and nobody will ask you to go and shower before going to bed.

We might be old Street ragamuffin pals, you just knew me.
We re told that Bendel Insurance football team players have feet made of iron rod
