I miss how exciting Nigeria played football, the 90's was a really good era for Nigeria
Absolutely
So were the 2000s
😂I'm from Egypt. Ididnot forget this game. The best afcon game at history. Very strong match. Nigeria keeper very funny
This nigerian team was the best african side ever, in my opinion. They were the best from 94 all the way to the year 2000. And I am from Côte d'Ivoire.
I agree with you I’m from Somalia 🇸🇴
Really pleased to Watch again those great players : Ben Badi, Bassole Michel, Sam Abouo Dominique, Tiehi Joël, Guel Tchiressoa, Alain Gouamene... Ben Iroha, Jay Jay Okocha, Yekini, Daniel Amokachi...
Those ivory coast guys were really great, Joel teih,basole Miche, abubakar traore,ben badi,
But Nigerian players were the best in Africa,mutiu Adepoju, uche okechukwu,tomson oliha, Daniel amokachi, finidi, Jay Jay and Host of others
RIP yakini may God accept him in paradise
I remember that good times of the best soccer game player very good times
The Team that gave us Lots of Joy going up. God bless you all. Our old eagles. May God be blessed with the Soul of Rasheedi Yekini. Rest on Legend.
😂😂😂
I can't forget this game, I remember the ivory coast number 9 showing us pepper, but lost in penalty shootout.
Rasheed Yekini, Michel Bassole, JJ,Joel Tiehi, Dan Amokachi, SiaSia...power full
This match remains a classic i remember watching it as a kid what a memorable game it was
Bassolé Michel!!! ❤️👍🏽🌟💫⭐️🇨🇮
watching this now, the quality was much better than today.
What i like most is the goalkeeper's kit it gives me that feeling of back in the days
Yekini's goal is a replica of the goal he scored against Bulgaria in USA. A pass from finidi
Nigeria best assembled team by miles. Our golden generation. See fluidity of play.
Nigerians will forever miss Austin Jay Jay Okocha. He was a maestro on the pitch
Can we ever assemble great players like this again 😢
Thanks for sharing. Thank you so much for the memories. I'm from Côte d'Ivoire and I still remember game.
That Amokachi pass to Yekini at 10:40 is sublime 😊
Our coaches need to play matches like this to our boys
The back heel pass from Okocha to Iroha was the same back heel pass Ola Aina gave to Ighalo during the 2019 Afcon in Egypt. The game was Nigeria VS Burundi , but Aina's assist to Ighalo was even more magical than Okocha's to Iroha. Please watch the 2 assists and compare , which is of World class ? Check also Kanu's back heel pass to Ikpeba in the 2000 Afcon match against Tunisia , World class assist.
Stop all your unnecessary Comparisons. What do you intend to achieve or gain.?
Did they all resulted in goals? If yes, that's the real deal. Stop carrying overload on your head😂
@@ISRAEL-CONTROL-AMERICA Did they all result ... not did they all resulted...
@@caniceosuagwu2580 Even football specialists or pundits do comparison bro , that is why the " Messi Ronaldo" debate will always continue.
@@ISRAEL-CONTROL-AMERICA😅😅😅
The year I actually started watching the super eagles of Nigeria play. 1994-1998 was the golden era of Nigerian football..
I loved watching watching him play even when he came to epl fantastic baller
Fenidi George and Daniel Amokachi were best what a game
Many thanks for this upload, I've searched everywhere,the one earlier available was not detailed like this.
Thank you for the videos
I remember Abdoulaye Traore of Asec Mimosa was Ivory coast star man then. Then one Ouattara also.
Les Nigérians ont vite blessés nos 2 joueurs vedettes : Abdoulaye Traoré et Tiehi Joël (4 buts)
Ahmed Quatarra & Joel Tiehi
@@ericniaba1716j'avais pas vu toutes ces belles actions à l'époque. Bassole Michel avait été double buteur hein .😊 Et puis bon quelques nigérians comme yekini, ben iroha jouaient chez nous et connaissaient un peu plus nos faiblesses. Tu as vu le tacle deux pieds en avant de Dao Lassina ?😮
@@yolaeddie9830 ah bon ! Vous n'avez pas vu le direct en Avril 1994 ? La Côte d'Ivoire a eu la possession de balle intéressante devant un puissant Nigeria.
La Côte d'Ivoire cette année aurait mérité d'aller en coupe du monde. Mais la CAF de Hayatou a trouvé qu'il fallait mettre dans la même poule :
Algérie : vainqueur CAN 1990
Côte d'Ivoire : vainqueur CAN 1992
Nigeria : futur Vainqueur CAN 1994
Dans les autres poules
- Maroc, Sénégal, Zambie (très faible à l'époque)
- Cameroun, Égypte, Zimbabwe (encore plus faible)
God please we want another golden generation
Down memory lane, what a team from Nigeria then .
Rufai’s weakness was dealing with crosses especially comer kicks
Great match
@@adebowalebabalola3570he was overated
Inyiama remains the best keeper in Nigeria history..
I am not disproving your submission, but I hope you have not used just this match to judge his performance for Nigeria@@dennisabdool2427
This era played football at thar time for the passion of it like the street footballers who played in every given open space
L équipe de Côte d Ivoire a fait douté la redoutable equipe du Nigéria jusqu'au tir au but. 🇨🇮🇨🇮 Ils n ont pas démérités.
Nigeria best team so far... restt on Rashid Yekini... .. Your legacy will always be remembered.
Merci pour cette video
Ona too sabi unnecessary blame. Can u give glory to the team with the exception of Rufai? He was great and experienced. We should concentrate on ourselves criticising. How good are we in our respective fields?
This generation shouting osimen never saw yekini amokachi etc ... This match is one of the toughest match to the extent we were saying ivory coast was using jazz the penalty period was something else God bless eagles
Great footballers of their time God you sirs, may children inherit you here after in Jesus name Amen, from Isanlu kogi state Nigeria
Best team ever assembled
When i see people comparing RUFAI with ENYEAMA.....I seem to get infuriated. How on earth will you applaud a goal keeper with such BLUNDERS 😢😢
Eyeama is far better
Nigeria best keeper remains Inyiama....
This team assembled by Clemence Westerhof have been the best Team we ever had in the history of the Super Eagles so far. I always weep when I see how they robbed Nigeria and Africa at large at the World Cup against Italy in Round of 16 games. That team was good to take the USA 94 World Cup and they didn't want it to happen so they robbed us silly. Roberto Bagio's deliberate foul and injury to take out Daniel the bull was over looked and the Clear Scoring chance of the great striker Rasheed Yekini was truncated by a deliberate fork which was not penalised with a red card!!!!😢
...and we did it again exactly 30 years later, this time around in group stage...
We are in the final together again 😅😅😅
It was a rainy day in Southern Nigeria, my after school tutor let us go home an hour early to catch the match on TV, we braved the heavy rain on foot, couldn't make it home but stopped at a friend's house to catch what I could, ended 4-2. Ivory Coast where minnows then.
Raining in southern Nigeria or raining in your town? And Ivory Coast was not a minnow except your were below 15 or just got introduced to football.
Set piece corner kick was a problem for Nigeria those days.lost to ghana in sengal 92 and almost to Civ in 94
Bcos Rufai was overrated and terrible.. Inyiama remains the best.
Dethroning the defending champions in this match took something out of these Super Eagles of Nigeria legends.
The chances Rashidi Yekini wasted in this semi final match against the Les Elephant of Cote d’Ivoire and against the Chipolopolo of Zambia in the final were too many.
This Super Eagles set is unarguably the best team African football has had.
Matured players from naija
Now this is African football. My goodness. You can the clear African style and flair vs European style in those days. Now Africans are losing that flair because they are playing in Europe.
That pass from Okocha
Check out the sublime attacking football Nigeria played back then, now we can barely make a decent attacking play smh
Yeah bro. You Can see and recognize the style in both the teams
Please help us upload Nigeria Vs Zambia quarter final Angola 2010
What a battle !!!!!!
c'est ce match qui a empêché la Côte d'ivoire de jouer la coupe du monde en 1994
Non
Nigeria was just to good then no team in Africa come close back then, except Cameroon.
Désolé sur la période 92 - 94 , seuls la Côte d'Ivoire et le Ghana pouvaient rivaliser avec ce Nigeria.
- la Côte d'Ivoire a battu le Nigeria 2 à 1 à Abidjan en 1993 lors des éliminatoires de la coupe du monde usa94, ensuite ce 2 a 2 lors de la demi-finale à Tunis 94.
- Le Ghana avait battu le Nigeria en 1992 en demi-finale 2 à 1
True CIV and Ghana were the keen competition for Nigeria then. And CIV was quite a revelation at this tournament because the mood before the tournament suggested a Ghana Nigeria final but CIV beat Ghana at the quarters.
You forgot to add that Nigeria beat CIV 4-1 in Lagos on the return leg for WC 94 qualifiers.😊
@@ericniaba1716Biased reporting.You refused to include the 4:1 bashing of ivory Coast in Lagos 😂😂😂😂😂
@@gbemigaidowu1558Ivory Coast were the defending champion from Senegal 1992, how can a champion be a revelation
@@user-dt6hb4uz1m Valid point and acknowledged sir. The context I used the word was more from the part that leading up to the tournament (from a Nign perspective), Ghana was seen as more of the bigger challenge at the tournament than CIV. CIV beating Ghana at the quarters was a real deal back then for us. However, I agree with you that it's quite demeaning to call the defending champs a "revelation", so point taking. Well done sir!👍
Our defenders weren’t marshalling their areas at all, they exposed the box, for all those blaming the goal keeper, imagine the kind of defenders these days allowing the strikers anyhow, the players were all great goal keeper was exceptional. Saved Nigeria not just on that match but at the final against Nigeria.
See our No 3 o, Iroha comfortably matches the level of Cafu of Brazil
Cafu played as a right back
I was shocked to, i was huh ben iroha did this? 😮😮😮
The Nigerian front 3 was fearsome
🎉🎉Amokachi was a beast
Yes
This Yekini is another timo werner 😅
Lol 😀😄😄😀😀😃😃😃😃
No! It's the other way round. A senior can't take after a junior. A junior takes after a senior instead.
Dear sir, owner of the channel, please, dear sir, I want the matches of the Senegalese national team in the 1994 African Nations Championship.
sorry, I don't have those games. They may be available on CZcams though.
@@kayvaldo Dear Sir, the matches of the Senegalese team in this same African Nations Championship in Tunisia 1994
Unlucky Yakinee
Men back then were just bigger.
Quanto era giovane Compagnoni 😱😱😱??
Person wey catch penalty nor good....bad belle ppl ona well done
🤣😂
We invented 1-2
In Deportivo La Coruna, Rufai was always second choice after Jacques Songo'o
Sango was Cameroon keeper right?
Rashid Yekini was strong and fast with the ball but boy was he so often wasteful with open space and goal.
Please upload the 0-0 match with Egypt
I haven't got that match
Afcon stadium have always been this empty lol
not today from what we saw in cote d Ivoire
I watched Rufai, I watched Enyeama..I didn't watch Okala. Enyeama is Nigeria's best goalkeeper ever.
I prefer ike sorumu
@@seyioyetade Ike for where? I can't forget his error against Senegal in 2002 semifinal. Anyway, Enyeama is way way better than him though.
Omo see two legged flying tackle and it was just yellow card 😂😂😂
old African football😅
When men were men
Jay Jay lack games techniques
Rufai, has always been the original " Basket" keepers.Over rated ,and overhyped. Even at USA 🇺🇸 94" he cost us a lot.
The 2nd goal which goal keeper would have kept that out . The first goal was partly the defenders fault.
@@user-ne7mq1hp6wThe first goaal was a goalkeeper error. If a goalkeeper comes out, he must get the ball.
@@user-ne7mq1hp6w there you go again. People failing to call a " Spade ♤ a Spade ♤ " I have been watching Peter Rufai. Since the late 70s throughout the 80's and finally the 90's. I wonder why people takes Constructive criticism as, denigrating the abilities of the person in discussion. I know Rufai is your favourite Keeper " but He is a " Basket " in goal 🥅. Simple.
@@caniceosuagwu2580 the Zambia goal was similar in the final 94. But check out 88 , the match against Cameroon, Algeria in the same match against Zambia 94 , he practically saved Nigeria , as Zambia came on Nigeria the last minutes. Against Bulgaria 94 , they had two clear chances. I frankly think the goal of Roberto b against Nigeria was like a back pass ,he should have stop it .
@@JayKay-sz8jt before usa 94 after the Zambia, ivory coast match in the nation cup. The press kept on the issues of Nigeria defense going to the world cup , seeing also that Nigeria was vulnerable to dead balls . Yes goal keeper should make good timing to catch such , but also watch the reactions of the central defenders offering no challenges to the headed ball, it was also very close and fast .
Yekini was just wasting chances
Peter Rufai was a shadow, really a mess and very shaky. Nigeria was just very lucky in this tournament because of their star power.
I don't think you watched the match. Credit should be given to him for some saves he made
@@comfortfolasade5915 I don't think you were surely not even born in 1994. To tell me of a match I watched live with heartbreak watching Ivory Coast take the lead twice and Rufai fumbling. Have you watched the finals against Zambia. Go watch the first goal Zambia scored. It seems Rufai is from your tribe as Nigerians get too sensitive anytime you criticize anything against their tribes man. Wilfred A was the goal all through the world cup qualifiers in 93. I don't why Westerhof dropped him for Rufai.
@@comfortfolasade5915 Was also wondering which game he watched. Or probably he was watching something else. Instead of him to comment on the chances we had and didn't take advantage of, he is here blaming Rufai and trying to play the tribe card.
Effectivement l'équipe de Côte d'Ivoire avec une ossature de joueurs locaux (Asec mimosas et l'Africa Sport , à eux deux 80% de l'équipe) à tenue la trajet haute aux stars du Nigeria. Elle méritait de conserver le trophée acquis en 1992.
Cette équipe ivoirienne était meilleur que celle qui a remporté la coupe !
Yekin dey waste chances then o
Rasheedi was overated af
One could say the same about CR7 if one watched only one of his bad matches. Nonetheless, I agree Rashidi wasn't great in this one.
Innovation as not come he did not meet up the 9 of this current trend❤ may his soul rest in peace
😂😂
Finidi the bigot he can't cekebrate with Rashidi Yekini that is what ruined our 1994 world cup chance
Are u ok in the head
@@seyioyetade How old are you? Did you watch watch 1994 Nation Cup and world cup life....Bigotry and Mafia ruined the Team..They ganged up against Yekini Only Sunday Oliseh that didn't join their tribal bigotry
@@seyioyetade how old are you ?
Is this the rubbish the super eagles were playing then that we thought they could play ball. Lol. The innocence of youth. Missing open goals, relying on brute force rather than tactics. These guys can't play with the current super eagles team, they will run them down within 20 minutes. Yekini, such a terrible striker of the ball.
Big fool
@@ashiezesidney6213 who is this faceless idiot? You clearly lack mental acuity to respond with common sense.
