At the moment all African national sides have a shocking lack of attacking midfielders and playmakers. We have strikers, holding mids, and defenders in abundance, but no attacking mids in the mold of Jay Jay Okocha. If you look at the successful teams around the world they all have those type of playmakers. It was telling that the best playmaker on the Cameroonian team was Samuel Eto'o. Your striker cannot be your best playmaker if you expect to win.
Nigeria 98 in my own discretions no was the best team with world top class players ever producted in the Land. I wish our governments across Africa see the same telant in new generation. there are still kanus, jay jays, michael Eisens, gyans, Eto,os and etc in the continent but, no one giving them opportunity to play.
denmark should have lost the last game of qualifiers for the world cup of 1998 here in greece at least 2-0... but they were too lucky like they were with nigeria
Lucky? You call 4-1 lucky? We outplayed the Nigerians in that game, they were already thinking about Brazil in the quarters. Schmeichel and the Laudrup-brothers taught them a lesson they'll never forget.
well I still think Nigeria is one of the best countries in the world. Pity they might not make it for the next world cup in south Africa. Thats what you get when fools are at the help of affairs in Africa. I hear their coach is as stupid as their president.
Nigeria used to be good, but in Nigeria, the term progress is a foreign concept. The Federation didnt build on the success of the team, they started hiring lame coaches to do the job. Plus the current Nigerian players have a long way to go, before they can be considered amatuers in the game of football. Point is, Nigeria is not a good team anymore.
I think the current Nigerian team needs to be disbanded, dismantled and if possible disembowel. There are disgrace not only to nigeria, but to africa and the soccer world at large, they have no passion and most importantly have had a miscall on their lives, most of them including obafemi should at most be taxi drivers, Nigeria cannot beat mozambique then we have serious problems. I call for a complet transformation for the National team!!!!
@jayjayolagoke you said it best ,all the players need to be fired, they are playing for the money,not with passion ,look how bad we plaayed in the world cup 2010.
Taribo! one word, legend! Other than Joey Yobo we have no top class centre backs. Shittu had one good tournament in the last ANC but he's average, whilst Nwaneri is abysmal
Some of you say that something went wrong in this game. Yeah... The danish team was by far the best. You're talking about some of the best nigerian players but I think you're forgetting who was playing on this danish team. MIchael Laudrup, one of the best players ever, his younger brother Brian, one of the best foreign players in scottish football and playing for teams like Bayern Munich. And then of course, the goalkeeper, Peter Schmeichel, in those years he was considered the best in the game.
I hold Eto'o, Makoun, Adebayor, Kalou, Drogba, Zaki, Zidan and McCarthy in higher regards and soon Obi and Martins will trumph this never-been never-was and never-will be trio.
Pregunta...Te acuerdas de un jugador llamado Camerun? o creo qeu me confundo con el jugador, pero fue el Ruud Gullete despues que el obviamente se retiro... si sabes me cuentas, pero estoy mirando las olimpiadas de Beijing y me acorde de ese jugador al ver la delegacion de Camerun ahora.. O si sabes de jugadores que marcaron historia de ese pais, me cuentas... Gracias.

of course u silly oyinbo person....do i have to teach science class again argh!...we are all evolutions from the ape family...yes even u and if u don't believe in evolution...well tough luck because ur a white monkey too :D...(well i think ur white)...
You can't imagine how many people the Nigerian Football Team inspired, they were super competitive in a unimaginable FIFA level, with great's such as Kanu, Okocha, West, etc! I'm not going to say they wasted it, but i'm just going to reply by saying they missed a perfect opportunity to compete for the World Cup!
yeah, i wish Nigeria beat Denmark, they should have, they deserve to win the World Cup in 98 and bring Pele's prediction to life when he said before the end of the century an African team would win the World Cup.
If people think that the Laudrup brothers were terrific in this game, they cannot forget about Jay Jay Okocha in this game, he was fantastic!
PS. Is there anywhere I can download this song from? I love it!
