ChrisKels:


Ebuehi is slightly a better RB bro. Ehizibue plays more as a winger/wing back.


Another good news is that Chinweizu has also said he's open to representing Nigeria when the time is right. He's equally a great prospect (20yrs old now)

All dis guys claiming to watch and comprehend what's going on in a match baffles me

I was in primary 4 when Brazil and France played in 98 world cup ,na small remain make we c ,I was 9month old when amokachi scored a beautiful goal against greece ,trying to clinch on d oldies

I no sabi as una dey understand dis games o,at Dt tender age...I bet most of u at DT age bracket watched replay and not d real match ,make una no dey whine us for here


Aw primary 4 piking of DT time comprehend each persons name, position, style of play as at den ,me I no believe o ,kids I.Q den where not as high as today's kid,a kid of 3years can operate i-pad conveniently .


I knew what was football during Atlanta 96,though I can't really comprehend d rules and regulation @ age 7

I didn't watch most games,because I was too naive to understand d rules,d game time wereearly part in d morning,games where played around 11pm,12am,1am,2am.d rules den for kids generally was to sleep after dinner,Max by 9pm,I dey bed
Only my my siblings who re older would go out in d middle of d night to watch games at a popular joint where dey own a generator set...generator set den was very expensive and not to popular among d masses

So abeg in a nutshell,if u re not up to age 13-15years during 94 world cup and 96 Atlanta tourney,stop analysing matches for us

zicky:
Atlanta 96 was the first tournament that kindle my interest in football. with the celebration after nig -bra game I thought it was the final and Nigeria won the World Cup.
for France 98, I could only remember baby dancing below the TV screen after France won the final.

tbaba1234:


I understand Ehizibue decided to wait for Holland.

Mujtahida:

I was in primary 3 when Nigeria played Angola and I remembered the match even though I wasn't a football fan. It was from that day I heard Sam Okwaraji name.

Daman miracle was still in 89. I didn't watch it though but I was caught up in the excitement. I will never forget how barrack boys were shouting and singing: our goalkeeper na Magnetor, goalkeeper, Magnetor, goalkee, goalkeeper, Magnetor. Fact is I even remember things sharply from my childhood than now. If I take you back to my primary school I can show you where I sat from nursery one to primary six.

tbaba1234:


I understand Ehizibue decided to wait for Holland.

ChrisKels:


No bro. Ebuehi's success has made him have a rethink plus Dutch FA doesn't rate him as one of their top prospects. They rate Ebuehi rather. I guess u don't know the names coming through that Dutch RB?

charlesemeka85:
ok, but from my close observation ehizubue is more robust and physical than ebuehi and also is versatile as you said (naturally was a winger before been converted to a right-back/right-wing back) .pls who is chinweizu?

TheGoodJoe:


I was sixteen during the 98 World Cup. I watched almost all the matches of that tournament and followed analysis in the local and National stations. The fever pitch of France 98 was insane. What I am talking about is not replays. The memories of that tournament is still fresh in my mind like I watched it yesterday.

TheGoodJoe:


I repeat. In Port Harcourt, Multichoice was rampant. A lot of people in my neighborhood had it and were following foreign leagues regularly. By 1997, people were hacking Multichoice devices and watching without paying subscription. That year, cable satellites beamed free to Air channels into people's homes. There was a large following at that time. Most bars in hotels showed these leagues regularly.

So people claiming to follow top leagues in the mid to late 90's was true.

jihday:
I was 9/10 years old in 98, I knew names but I don't know position or tactics, so the games I watched in 98 I still remember some of the scorers and scoreline

Mujtahida:

Kaiiii you remember Jim Garby (na so we dey call am ooo), a black man with shiny black skin, he like yanga ehn.

You remember claw? Using the index and the rest of the fingers to hold a person's head.

You remember the Henry Bone brothers (I don't know what the correct name was ooo but that's how we called them)

ChrisKels:


No bro. Ebuehi's success has made him have a rethink plus Dutch FA doesn't rate him as one of their top prospects. They rate Ebuehi rather. I guess u don't know the names coming through that Dutch RB?

tbaba1234:


I understand, he was approached by Nigeria but decided to wait for Holland.

I don't know if that has changed.

Read my post well na bro,I put age bracket na


Ages of 4-10years...to some extent 12years too during U.S.A 94,Atalanta 96,France 98 can't understand d nitty gritty of d game.let alone of analysing aw d match went,d side attractions and all,dts d point...one can only scream when odas re screaming too if a goal is scored. Am talking abt den,not now..kids of nowadays I.Q IS TOO HIGH,a kid of 8-10year old will operate i-pad conveniently wout help,u c dem in viewing centers discussing d game passionately.dem sabi analyse ball pass some adult self,

D emergence of internet,cyber cafe,Dstv in early 2000really helped d generation of now

safarigirl:
do you know how many relationships end based on mere suspicion?

I am not even saying he will cheat, but women tend to be very paranoid and I already stated that "the mere suspicion is heartbeeaking".

You guys are not getting the point. Maybe because you are guys

Martz101:


what do you mean by differently?

Humility017:

spot on...reason why many don't like long distance relationship.

some men jobs even exposed their wives to marital infidelity.
a man who is always busy and never available.... may expose his wife to start longing for intimacy outside...

charlesemeka85:
if they rate ebuehi why wasn't he capped in any of their youth teams? ebuehi came to prominence after joining up with the super eagles which helped his confidence to notch out superb performances in the colors of ado which made the dutch FA to notice him but it was late. ebuehi, aina,iwobi and ekong are case study for the nff. they mustn't wait till this foreign born kids rise to stardom before approaching them. once any have been noticed as a top prospect they should be approached and integrated to the teams set up before their country of birth comes calling. if such measures was taken a talent like lookman ademola would have been an integral part of our world cup team

ChrisKels:



Haa who doesn't know Chinweizu Egbo? The boy that plays for Borrussia Monchenglabach. The one they call Mandela nah

MetalJigsaw:
Naa DAT one den for catch am na

Martz101:


totally wrong, you can be 8 and comprehend matches

Joebie:
Na only when i hear news say we beat Bulgaria, and Greece I come believe say something good can come from Nigerian football. That was when I started reading Complete Football and getting to know the players. Na Atlanta 96 I start to watch Nigeria match.

Prior to then Na only WWF and video game I sabi.

elyte89:


Kids of today yes,not den bro

AIG07:
Joel Obi was an unused substitute today.
Genoa 1-2 Torino.

Does this makes him eligible to play against DRC?

forgiveness:



Ok. He has only played one game.

krattoss:
lol... What happened to dildooss

Icon4s:


There is no way you would have remembered a game you watched at the age of 3.

Captain, Carry on, carry on.
