Ike shoromu was too good he should be the man of the match.

You can see Okocha there with his strangulating pass. Aghahowa has a very sharp reflex. He did not pass to Okocha and go to sleep, he started running and collected the long pass from Okocha.

Our defense was shaky thru our this match, players were not falling back quickly, the Irish where faster

Ireland were a top side that time. They hadn’t lost in 2 years prior to this game despite facing Portugal and Netherlands home and away. Anyways, Onigbinde was outdated and that team was useless except for JJ, Julius and Ike

Wilson Oruma never played to his own skills. He tried to copy Jay Jay's style of play.
