Can you compare what Rangers International meant to Ndi Igbo to what Enyimba is?
The whole of Ndi Igbo identifies with Rangers, Enyimba is the pride of Aba people.
Holy! Holy!! Rangers!!!

How on earth is the highlight of this game not on YouTube?
What is wrong with the organizers? What is wrong with the NFF?
The incompetence by all and sundry stinks to high heavens.

oga shut up if you don't know what to say..Enyimba is bigger and has achieved more than rangers.. Has rangers carried CAF cup before? Enyimba and Kano pillars are the two biggest clubs ever in Nigerian football history.. Argue with facts..

You are the one who should argue with facts. Rangers and Shooting Stars were the biggest clubs in Nigeria. Rangers won Nigeria's 1st continental trophy: the Cup Winners Cup (otherwise known as the Mandela Cup). Shooting Stars won it the next year.

No Nigerian club won the Sekou Toure Cup (then known as the African Cup of Champions Clubs competition) in its original home and away format which was far more difficult than it is now. Then, no African players played in Europe, so the competition was played by the best clubs in Africa with the best footballers in Africa.I am talking of teams like:

Canon Sportif of Cameroun, featuring like half of Cameroun's National team including captain Emmanuel Kunde.
Tonerre Kalala which had the likes of Roger Milla.
Horoya of Guinea
Royal Armed Forces of Morocco
Ahly Nationale (now called Al-Ahly)
AC Bizerte of Tunisia
Dragons of Benin Republic where Dodo Mayana played for a while
Stationery Stores
African Sports of Cote D'Ivoire
ASEC Mimosas
Arab Contractors of Egypt


On the local scene, we had solid teams: Rangers, Abiola Babes, Leventis United, IICC, Stationery Stores, Raccah Rovers, Might Jets, Bendel Insurance, New Nigeria Bank, ACB, you name it.

Who started to hear of Enyimba (then known as Falcons of Aba with Philip Osondu as one of its players back then) until Orji Uzor Kalu came on board? Yes they broke the jinx of winning the CAF Champions League for Nigeria for the 1st time, but that is about it. What else have they achieved?

I can go on and on and on. NTA used to show these games in the 70s and 80s and I am glad to have had the opportunity to watch this exciting time in African football when we had the best playing on our shores. With Naira exchanging at 80k to $1, what was the need to play abroad then when players's salaries here were worth more?

long epistle.. The other guy comment was even better and concise.. At least Enyimba has more success than others.. Are you doubting that one also

Beer Parlour talk, as for CAF cup, please the Cup Winners Cup that Rangers won I guess is CONCAF Cup. Rangers is the only club in Nigeria not to go on relegation.
Enyimba no matter how successful can never mean the same thing to Ndi Igbo like what Rangers meant to them. If you don't know ask your elders.
