@Bolaoni, The One realy? yekini was part of that team? cant seem to remember his face agains cameroon |
Re: Forgotten Players In Nigerian Soccer by TheOne2(m): 9:47pm On Mar 26, 2007 |
Yes oooo Yekini was there. In the first match against Kenya that we won 3 - 0, he scored one goal. I think the other goals were scored by Ndubuisi Okosieme and either Humphrey Edobor/Okwaraji. I'm not too sure about the last one. For you info Yekini started playing for Nigeria in 1983/84 and he was at the 1984 nations cup in Cote d'voire. The guy tay for eagles well well o. |

Re: Forgotten Players In Nigerian Soccer by Shinor(m): 11:26am On Apr 02, 2007 |
9ja4eva, the 1960's had i think haruna ilerika - stationary stores who was a school boy at the time he played for Eagles . I stand to be corrected. the late dan Ayam, Kenneth Olayombo. Peter Anieke aka Baby Anieke, There were quite a few Ibo players but remember the civil war caused a disruption in the flow of things. |

Has anyone else noticed that we had some fantastic nicknames for player back in the day: "Owo Blow", "Mathematician", "Chief Justice", "Minister of Defence", "Chairman" etc Just goes to show that football back then was purely for enjoyment and not all about the money. |
