Guys take ur time to read this epistle, though it is quite long but let us be voracious today, I say this bkus ur bele go burst before u go finish this message. Naija dun produce wicked players walahi. DOWN MEMORY LANE: Ogbueze- The onetime Nigerian football magician “Only very rare in football does a player come along who belongs not to a club or a country, but to the world, a player so talented and such a joy to watch that he inspires admiration, universality, irrespective of the chauvinistic allegiance. The crowds turn up to see his performance, and partisan feelings are forgotten. Pele of course was such a star and so was Stanley Matthews, and in his brief career, Duncan Edwards, and Diego Maradona, the gift of the gods.” – Jay-Jay Okocha … Farewell to the Last Paragon, Emma Okocha, Vanguard, Letters from Washington, on the retirement of Jay-Jay Augustine Okocha from the Super Eagles. Those of you the new generation, mesmerized by the ethane artistry of Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, those of you of the old school, who saw Albert Onyeanwuna take on three or four defenders at a time, witnessed the football poetry of the London Boy, the dancing effervescence of Jay-Jay the last matador, please wait for the Daily Times story of soccer’s most pulsating decade. The Daily Times, which started covering football since June 6, 1925, had reported and seen a lot of the world’s greatest footballers. When Godwin Ogbueze performed his epic at Onikan, the Times went for the absolute and referred to the “fantasy” that happened as magic. The paper called him by that superlative for the fact that the lad conjured magic in the open arena. After earning a hat trick, Ogbueze decided on that day to knock at the World Guinness Book of Records. He took the entire football team of the Lagos Academicals, starring: Emilio John, Tunde Martins, Tony Amayo … one by one, he dribbled down the field, approaching the goalkeeper, Manuwa, Ogbueze raised his head and smiled at the goalkeeper. The onrushing goalkeeper was neatly displaced and instead of tapping in the ball to an empty net, the magician retreated, carrying the ball on his back he started the Atilogwu dance! This totally embarrassed the Lagos squad who moved back to the sidelines and Ogbueze still not tired of entertaining the now boisterous crowd, shoved the ball from his back to his shoulder, gently caressing the leather ball, interchangeably thrusting the ball to his head and to his neck in marked gentle kisses and embrace. In perfect control of his one-man theater act, Godwin Ogbueze swaggered to the centre line. The referee, who in that instance had lost his authority, went after the Magician and was about snatching the ball from Ogbueze when the Magician sold him his own dummy! His whistle fell from his hands and for the first time there was pin drop silence. Without the opponents contesting the ball, in a field of play where the referee had lost his command, Godwin Ogbueze sat on the ball and with both hands up, he beckoned on the Lagos crowd to come for the ball! That crowd would forever relate the story of that epic not only to those who missed the match but would go on forever to tell the story of Ogbueze and his magic at Onikan from generation to generation. After the civil war, Ogbueze was the unsung revelation whose artistry on that day shut down a volatile crowd, dismissed the authority of the referee, dribbled down an entire team and sat down on the ball to end a game. No other player has or will ever conjure the field like the magic of Godwin Ogbueze. (See Rangers International Football Club … History of a People, pg 19, 95) It is a pity that Magic Ogbueze was not staged before the world camera playing in the Olympics or at the World Cup. Therein springs the major difference between journalism and the mass communications world! Godwin Ogbueze, according to the Nigerian Daily Times, dribbled to stupor everybody in the field including the referee, the newspaper reported that wonder as news. Journalism! Limited by its operating technology and limited by its national circulation, the Daily Times is a localised national medium. The Onikan Stadium and its sitting terraces is not the world and that stage is incomparable to the Olympic Heights. The World Cup arenas prepared diligently for years to accommodate the intoxicating fascinations of the sporting gods. |
forgiveness:the same champs league that they will get sent packing before the tourney kicks off? Bros I no expect this kind post from u oo |
TheSuperNerd:He was rather fortunate that the goals came minutes before the world cup, else he would not av bn able to scam us |
TheSuperNerd:I don't know how u gonna view this, but, whenever a player is coming from a poor background in the core North, no matter how talented, I don't raise my hope bkus naturally he is susceptible to exploitations due to poor education and lack of exposure. yahaya is a rare talent but his camp has wrecked his talent. bar bang average sani kaita, can u name any player that has made it big from kano, katsina, kebbi, sokoto Maiduguri et al? |
tbaba1234:u knew this before now ,all the way from the States, where as komekn who claims to reside in London and is adept with happenings on Nigerian origin players, has no clue, yet he wouldn't let us rest here? Abeg any info on tomori and Tammy? |
TheSuperNerd:yea I hope onuachu comes good. about simmy he hasn't proven nothing. how many goals has he, in as many matches, in the serie A? u people rate him bkus of his fluke goals rush he scammed us with, enroute Russia. in emir kongi's voice, simmy is useless |
tbaba1234:bkus of the skysports news I posted yesterday, or av u something different(yummy) to back this up? |
mostob:he ain't better than onyekuru but with the exposure he is bound to get playing in the bundesliga and champions league, and with onyekuru stock in the Turkish league, he sure gonna upstage onyekuru soon |
TheSuperNerd:Yes onuachu is my boy but he hasn't been impressive. Take simmy nwankwo off that list, dude is crap and does not av age on his side |
TheSuperNerd:I pray for an oxyacetylene induced inferno, not just a mere fire. Dude should blaze on!!!! |
TheSuperNerd:Hahahahaha OK my good man, quarrel no dey ![]() |
TheSuperNerd:Lol Nerdy calm down, we the oldies in here new from the outset that it was u behind that handle, we just had to play along in order not to kill the fun, bkus of course, we were enjoying the updates as we had high hopes in Nwakali then, thinking he was gonna be the next Mikel. |
charlesemeka85:Yes! I know who are - Aribo, Onomah, any Tom, d¡ck and Harry born in Europe with Nigerian blood in him bhuhahahaha ![]() |
charlesemeka85:Yea dats y he said he was glad the players who couldn't make it to Egypt are finding their mojos back with their different clubsides in this preseason |
charlesemeka85:Ok bro. Okechukwu Azubuike is in line for a come back to the Eagles. |
Dennis Bonaventure is PROBABLY the most skilful
Nigerian footballer currently. He has so many
tricks in his sleeve, the only problem is that he
overdoes it and loses the ball in the process.
FC Brugges appear to be too strong for their
opponents in the Belgian league so far. I agree with this assessment from Dammi Cc CEF |
tbaba1234:MrMaastrich AKA Nerdy my guy wont like this ![]() |
The five players poised to be integrated into the Eagles ahead of our next game; 1. Mikel Agu – Mikel Obi’s retirement from the national team has placed him top of the list of players who will be called up when the team regroup but that is also subject to his form at his new Portuguese side Vitoria Setubal. 2. Azubuike Okechukwu – The Istanbul Basaksehir midfielder will be given a chance to prove his mettle with the team with John Ogu favorite to be dropped for the Nigeria U23 captain as part of the efforts by Rohr to freshen up his squad. 3. Valentine Ozornwafor – Impressed Rohr mightily when he trained with the Super Eagles and he followed it up with another strong showing for the U23 in the Olympic Qualifiers. His spot in the team will most likely come at the expense of Leon Balogun. 4. Olufemi Kayode – Rohr has heard a lot about the shot stopper who just moved to Enyimba one week ago from Lobi Stars. He is presently among the goalkeepers the coach want to use as alternative to the goalkeepers he has at the moment. 5. Tyrone Ebuehi – His inclusion is a no brainer as he was mentioned as one of the players the team badly missed at the AFCON by Rohr. His return to full fitness plus the games he has played in pre season so far means he is battle ready for the right back spot of the Super Eagles. |
