musterseeds: That team wasn't that good.. The 94 loss to Italy really hurts. We were this close. Italy finally getting to the final made it more painful. I was like, it could be Us. |

Number 5 was really painful. The football super powers were already jittery.. If the Eagles had beaten Italy, anything could have happened for good thereafter. The voice of Arigo Sachi shouting Dino Dino Dino ( Dino Baggio) is still ringing in my ears till tomorrow. |

For me it was France 98. After that defeat, it took close to a month for me to recover and after recovering that was the last time I ever sat to watch any Nigerian competition. I prefer watching the highlights since then. |

Mine was MAROC 88 when a clean goal from Henry Nwosu's was disallowed by the referee. Cameroon later won 1-0. I still feel the pains and disappointment of that day. |

ekanx27: Yes I agree. It was easier to score than kick the ball away as he did |

None of the matches mentioned by OP is as painful as Nigeria's loss to Cameroon at Maroc 88 Nations cup finals. The match ended 1-nil in favor of Cameroon courtesy of a dubious penalty awarded by the Gabonese referee & converted by Roger Miller. But the painful aspect was that the same refree dubiously disallowed a very correct goad initially headed in by Henry Nwosu that should have given us the lead. Very painful a loss it was 1 Like |
