    This was by far Naija's best WC team to date as they were ranked 5th in the world at the time, and were only a few minutes away from meeting Spain in the quarterfinals if not for Roberto Baggio's heroics. Ever since then, nothing to write about other the Olympics triumph a couple of years later in Atlanta 1996...

      @sasho888prm Před 3 lety

      It was a foul on a Bulgarian player outside of the box.
      Most players from both teams thought it was a goal.
      The Nigerian goalkeeper couldn't understand why he had to take a goal kick after the goal..
