- Ikedia, with his usual mazy runs, grabbed an assist as Nigeria came from behind to secure a 3-3 draw against Honduras in their opening game of the tournament.
[Note: Some parts of the first half are missing]
Pius Nelson Ikedia (born 11 July 1980) is a Nigerian retired professional footballer who played as a winger. While still a teenager, Ikedia scored many goals along with Julius Aghahowa at Nigerian club Bendel Insurance. He played professional football for one year in Ivory Coast before he was discovered by Dutch giants Ajax. After three seasons with Ajax he was loaned out to various Dutch clubs before finally signing a permanent deal with AZ in 2005. In the 2006-07 season he was out on loan to RKC Waalwijk but failed to make an impact and was subsequently released by AZ. He returned to RBC Roosendaal, whom he had been loaned out to while at Ajax, after a trial with the Chicago Fire, after which he would go on to play for Metalurh Donetsk in Ukraine in 2007. Between 2008 and 2010, he once again played for RBC in the Netherlands. After spells in Azerbaijan and Cyprus with AZAL and Mağusa Türk Gücü, respectively, Ikedia returned to the Netherlands to play for amateur side OFC Oostzaan in 2014. He retired in 2016. - Sport
I remember this very game very vividly. Ikedia was surely in his elements that very day. The whole Nigerian players were basically loading him with passes upon passes, and dude was tormenting the opposing team all evening.. Great player. Pity The Super Eagles never got the best out of him.
Pius Ikedia With Dazzling Runs & Mesmerising Dribbles, Perfect Assist To Bright Igbinadolor.
Incredible Ikedia
The G is a dynamo.
I'm sure there is some sort of rocket in his boot. No one can be that quick with the ball🤔🤔🤔
He has not gotten a replacement yet
He was very good but injuries and lack of variability in his playing style prevented him.from.achieving more.
One must also lack of good technical unit of NFF to guide players to maximise their talents in playing styles, preventive play teams to join
See the pace of our game then.😭😭. Fantastic pace.
What has happened now?
Is it Laziness we suffer now or laxity or the country's wahala is hitting hard on everything?
Running man
Baseless runner
One of his runs in the clip ended in a goal..
So what are you saying again?
You call him a baseless runner..
Now we have trekkers in our national team. Everyone is trekking. Hope you now love it?
Don't complain again ...
See how sluggish we play now.
That was what killed us in Ivory Coast-Nigeria finals.
