Why Nigeria always has the freshest jerseys?? 😲💯👌🏾

This is not just the best Nigerian football generation till date but the best African generation of all time. No disrespect to the Cameroon class of 1990. Many may say am saying this because am Nigerian but that's not the issue here. These guys commanded and aura where ever they played on the planet and they practically opened the flood gates of an African exodus of football talent to the rest to the world (you can't talk about fellow African's like Asamoah Gyan, Mo salah, Didier Drogba or Mane etc. without a link to this 94 generation). Besides being a well represented team they raised many eyebrows putting African football on the map, giving respect to the African game that was previously seen as the perennial whooping boys. So you can say what the Roger Milla generation Cameroon couldn't attain they went beyond simply world cup tongue twisters and shot for the stars. They built up international response to the African game beyond 1994. Absolutely classy that's what the Nigerian Golden Age represents.

This generation of Nigerian footballers were amazing. Okocha, oliseh, finidi, amokachi, amunike, rufai in goal, west, babayaro, uche, siasia etc. Though I'm not Nigerian, I was a big fan of the super eagles then

As a moroccan following the african football for decades now..I am very disappointed of little progress, at the world stage, made by the african football since then..this DREAM TEAM was the pride of all african nations..we miss u dearly

Man.. i remember this team. I am a fan of Nigeria's football since them (WC 94) when i was 10 years old. Sad that they don't keep this level.

I was 7 when i saw the 1994 usa wc, i'm from Italy and i'm pretty sure of 2 things 1 if we had not Baggio nigeria would have won and probably reach the final 2 if Baggio would have not exausted himself so much ( along with all the team) against the supereagles Italy would have probably won the 94 cup. I always loved Nigeria's team since that times, i played football for fun and i was into athletic as a kid, so as a football player i had just 1 good weapon, my run. In Italy they say that without a great technique You can't be a decent player...Nigeria that day almost defeted one of the best italian team ever in wc history. I just fell in love with that team and Still a big fan . Cheers from Italy to all supportes of the great supereagles , and a big up for my two favourite players from nigeria amokachi 💪 " the bull" , and tijani Babangida ( all iss pro players must love them as much as i do probably) 😁

Rashid yekini' may your soul rest in peace. African footballer of the year '94 and scored the first ever goal for the country in a World cup tournament despite all the odds and financial constraint. U and other members of the 1994 super eagles squad shall 4 ever live in my HEART.

The best ever... Proud of you Nigeria football team... Best regards from West Papua

I ran across the road celebrating this Oliseh goal against Spain in 1998. Thank God I was not hit by a car

Born in 1990, I got to witness this age first-hand as a child in Nigeria. The best moments, we stopped everything to watch the Super Eagles play ❤

Nigeria had a sort of smooth and easy touch that even the likes of brazil couldn't produce. that game against Italy could have been the milestone to a new era in the history of African football had that game's result gone the right way.

The shot heard around the World, against Spain. Sunday Oliseh

This brings tears to my eyes. Oh i long for days like this. Days that my country will conquer the world again

I remember Sunday Oliseh and that shot! I screamed with unbelievable joy. The best match Nigeria has ever played. What a comeback! ❤️ Next world cup, we will carry the cup. My prediction.

They were the Brazil of Africa. If i were to describe everything about that team then i would need to write a book. Jay Jay Okocha would have a chapter of his own

Finidi, Yekeni. Peter Rufai, Okocha, amokach, Ikpebai! NIgeria had some great players between 94 and 98. Back then, those guys played for pride first beefore money. I'm cameroonian, but in 1998 during the world cup, I supported Nigeria with all my heart. I was crushed when Denmark beat them out.

Respect to Sunday from Ethiopia!

Very touching!!! Hope i can represent Nigeria one day

Nigeria of the 90s is the best african football team ever...

The Golden Age. The most fearsome squad ever assembled on the African continent, that 94 Super Eagles team. Yekini, Amunike, Okocha, Finidi, Eguaevhon, Rufai, Oliseh, Amokachi, Adepoju, Okpara, Siasia, Uche, Lawal, Keshi, Babangida, Babayaro, etc. They could have gone all the way if not for man's jealousy towards his brother and the foolishness of pride and senseless ego of some so called professionals. Why did they scheme against Yekini and were not passing him balls after the first game? It pains me so much that this generation couldn't complete what Cameroon started in 1990. Love from GHANA

The 1976-1980 Super eagles may have been the most talented Nigerian team with players like Segun Odegbami, Christian Chukwu, Muda Lawal, Adokie Amezemaka ,Felix Owolabi and many more.These guys were so talented and won championships even without the benefit of real professional training. For us who know though,they were a joy to watch.

Okocha, amokachi, Kanu, my favorites, what a team... greetings from North Carolina.

This team still gives goosebumps lol Hopefully we can get to this standard again.

r.i.p yekini

I hope I'll play for Nigeria 🇳🇬🙏

LOVE NIGERIA-TOP TEAM AT THAT TIME IN AFRIKA

Oliseh, Okocha, Amokachi, Babangida, George, Babayaro, Kanu...this was my favorite team to play in the old games like ISS Pro and PES later on on the PS1 :D. What a great team that was.

In my opinion Nigeria '94 were the best African team to ever participate in the world cup. Even though they never made it to the quarter finals like Cameroon, Senegal or Ghana their game was far superior. Pele wasn't wrong when predicting that Brazil would play against Nigeria in the final match of USA '94.

Best nigerian squad ever with a balance between defense and offense, speed ,wing play and great strikers ikpeba amokachi and goal king yekini amunike and finidi on the wings solid midfield oliseh and okocha and defense with West okechukwu. Rufai the goalie was always our weak link. We could have won the world cup that year. We were on fire.2 mins away from defeating italy

Respect to Sir Sunday from Ghana

Yes .... That's what our present squad lacks. They think they're doing us a favor by representing us rather than a service.

I loved the super eagles from then till today.

Nigeria will win afcon 2019 From kenya

the best Nigerian team till date. that group i pray one day Nigeria can produce a team like that again.

what happened to Nigeria and African soccer a painful demise.

Okocha,Amokachi,Finidi, Amunike,kanu,Oliseh,Rufai are some of our greatest ⚽

RIP Rasheed Yekini, Stephen Keshi and goalkeeper Wilfred 😭😭😭

Thank you for releasing this :)

Beautiful generation!!! Great and talented guys that changed the idea of the game play status back then!! Being Mexican, I always enjoyed and supported this crazy players with their revolutionary creativity to take the Ball and Respect it... Missing this African talents

I was born and raised in Nigeria

That Nigerian team made ma love football

That's the reality during those years the guys were covered up by pride Not money. All pledges n allegiance were directed towards their nation, people, n continent n not again money n myself. Multiple blessing

This is the greatest team ever assembled by any Afrikan team and by right we were suppose to win this world cup 94. Though I was very young but I remember this tournament vividly and when we were knocked out of the quarter finals I was crushed couldn't eat and cried about a week.

Wow! This is a memory. I was in secondary school that year we played Italy in USA '94. I still remembered it just like yesterday. I could not eat my food that night. It was just like the whole house lost someone. It took me some weeks before I could get over the shock because we are already celebrating our qualifications to the quarter-finals. Sooooo painful! But all is history now. Let the next generation learn from this.

Thats why oliseh got 9/99 shot power in winning eleven

Each time I see Sunday Oliseh, I am reminded of his debut against Senegal in 2002 African Nations Cup we co-hosted with Ghana. It was quarter finals' march, I suppose. We were a goal down. Prior to the match we knew Oliseh would not play because of Malaria fever. Well, the coach put his team captain in the bench. Seeing Oliseh in the sideline watching the game with all apprehension as most Nigerians do was adorable. In fact, he persuaded the coach, we hoped, to play in the last quarter minutes. In less than five minutes of his introduction Oliseh provided the genius long pass to Aghahowa who netted the equaliser. Thereafter we dominated the game with a winning goal. Oliseh marked out the best footballer ever in the annals of football in USA 94. And that his and colleagues' first world outing. Argentina could not score against us, except in a dead ball situation. If he had played in the semi-finals against Brazil in Atlanta '96, I'm convinced we wouldn't have gone that extra mile to beat Brazil. Oliseh's generation of national players was Nigeria's best. They were world class players. Perhaps, Mikel would match, or better put surpass, the ranks if we qualified for the next world cup.

Nigeria is similiar to Norway then, in the aspect of having one golden generation of players in the 90's, and not being able to reproduce their success.

Una selección maravillosa

One of the best team in African history they qualified to round 16 in world cup 1994 and 1998

Nigeria, football has been the only thing that unites us.

Babayaro, Babangida, Ikpeba, West, Finidi,

I remember that oliseh strike like yesterday.

Let's go! 2018 is the comeback season.

I'AM A BLACK AMERICAN WOMAN BORN AND RAISED IN NYC. I KEEP ASKING THE OLYMPIC COMMITTEE.......... COULD THEY PLEASE TELL ME IF THE CONTINENT OF AFRICA COULD EVER BE A POSSIBLE SITE FOR ...THE OLYMPIC GAMES? .... I HAVE YET TO RECEIVE AN ANSWER😏 IS THIS ANYONE ELSE'S DREAM TO SEE THE OLYMPIC GAMES HELD ON THE CONTINENT?.......IF IT IS.... I SUGGEST YOU START TEXTING AND EMAILING THE INTERNATIONAL OLYMPIC COMMITTEE.

I still remember that strike

Arguably the 2 most talented players in the '94 and '98 squads were Emmanuel Amunike and Findi George

They were the team to use in video games

That Celebration of Yekini in the net.....pure passion

Sunday’s strikes was like a anti air missile

Toute me respecte le Nigeria de Rachid yekeni

This was good team. Jjj okocha

The best of Nigeria still.....

Best african team Ever!!!

من پلی استیشن بازی میکردم و تیم نیجریه رو بر میداشتم فقط به خاطره شوتهایه قوی اموکاچی و روزی که شنیدم همه این بازیکنا بجز یک نفر داشتن واسه مسابقات میرفتن و هواپیماشون سقوط کرده و همشون جونشون رو از دست دادن خیلی ناراحت شدم 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 از خداوند میخوام که روحشان در ارامش باشه

this was when our super eagles lived up to their name, the present squad is terrible... I can't wait for our eaglets to replace them, they look like a more promising team.

Sadly didn't seen them play, born in 96

One day. I know I'll represent this country Nigeria. So help me.God

The Super Eagles👍🏽

Peter Rufai!!!!!!!!

The French say “Il faut cadrer”...LOL

Nigeria master race!

Those days playing for Nigeria meant something.

No doubt, this was a strong squad but The 2002 Senegal squad & 2010 Ghana squad were also great...Now which African squad will emerge this year 2018? Egypt, Nigeria or Senegal?

Nigerians are still holding on to this after all these years

1980s camaroon 1990s nigeria after 2000 ghana

I am from Nigeria 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬

The best ever

Nigeria was so close to beating Italy in 1994 but was unlucky. Nigeria were also unlucky to draw Italy in the first place, every single team in Italy's group finished on 4 points and the same goal difference.

It was avery very ammazing generation

Politics and corruption killed what the team could have accomplished at the end. Still the greatest ever. 🦅

The greatest Nigeria's WC team (A) : 1 Rufai - 2 Yobo, 5 Uche, 6 West, 3 Babayaro - 15 Oliseh - 7 Finidi, 10 Okocha, 11 Amunike - 4 Kanu, 14 Amokachi. team (B) : 16 Shorunmu, 22 Enyeama - 21 Okpara, 12 Keshi, 17 Eguavoen - 8 Adepoju, 18 Oruma, 19 Lawal - 13 Babangida, 9 Yekini, 20 Ikpeba.

Okocha was accused of too much dribbling 😂and was always on the bench didn't solidify his spot in the team until the 1994 round of 16 against Italy where he recorded the most successful dribble ever by a single player in a world cup match.i miss watching okocha I no go lie.

The best african national team in history....

Tijani babangida speed 97 😁

times when football was still football

It is time for Nigeria to reach the world Cup Quarter final

There was a generation.

Amokachi
