Here’s Everything You Should Know

Virtually everybody born before the invention of the
internet must have heard the tale of a nonexistent
football match between Nigeria and India that obviously
took place in a parallel universe and somehow we got
to hear the gory stories of that match.

Though there are many variations of the story, every
prevaricator seems to agree on a couple of facts about
this fictional football match. Each storyteller agrees
that;

1. This match ended with India scoring 99 goals and
Nigeria scoring just one goal.

2. Nigerians where unable to kick the ball because the
football kept turning to a lion (or something scary) to
prevent them from playing the soccer ball.

3. The Indians later agreed that if Nigeria could score a
goal, they would concede defeat

4. Samuel Okwaraji scored the winning goal and lost
his life in the process.

5. FIFA banned India from soccer because they used
black magic in that very game

With the help of common sense (not that it was absent
back then), quick access to information and the
internet, every right thinking Nigerian has come to
realize that such a story should be filled under “Blatant
Lies”.
