The amount of joy I have in me watching this right now.. words can not explain. May our glory days return and never depart from us again. Amen 🙏🏽 Glorious Nigeria.
I actually watched this match during my NYSC year in Akwa Ibom state Nigeria. It was a memorable day. I cried while watching it again today. Rip, Yemi Tela, the great coach of the team in 2007
What a marvellous victory! But why did David De Gea grow up to become a great star years after in Man U and Dele Ajiboye never grew to become very great yearsafter though his fantastic performance delivered the victory Nigeria ?
@@olukayodeagboola5677 opportunities are low at u17 compared to u20 and a European ll always gets more spotlight than African. If Sallah was a South American or European they ll sing his praise more than they are ding today
It was a prophetic victory to me. Nigeria winning the 2007 fifa under 17 world cup final is always a blessed memory to me. Thank God alone for these testimony in Jesus Christ name Amen.
I was 17yrs then ... I travelled to Abuja then. I think it was played on Sunday because I didn't watch it at home. We removed our shirts after the match and ran home happily after the match .... What a memory
The squad played excellently And they would have played good @ the 2010 AFCON and most of them would have been big stars. After all, GK Ajiboye did better than De Gea throughout the game, but the Spanish GK is still performing till date. They made an unbelievable record in the history of U17 world cups. Though they were underrated and neglected by the Nigerian Football Federation___NFF 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬
Congratulations to Nigeria from Ethiopia. I am so happy you brought the under 17 world cup trophy to Africa for third time . you are real African pride!! May God bless Nigeria I expect the main world cup too.You work hard for it you deserve it.!❤❤❤❤even this was in the past the memory remain.
Every time I watched the recap of this scene, I always have a flow of tears when the celebration of Ajiboye is done, Great time for Nigeria and Nigerians.
2007 Nigeria-Chrisantus was the tournament golden boy, fast forward to 2021 I've not seen him. See De Gea,Illaramedi,Kroos. Something is wrong somewhere with Nigeria football. We always win this youth tournament easily but what happens to the senior team. We've got talent in 9ja but those talent are not utilized. Thank God for the likes for Osimen,iheanacho,Mikel who shined in this kind of tournament and remain relevant till now. For this 2007 team, I feel sad for them. They were too good to be forgotten.
The problem with our developmental teams / players i.e U17, 20, 23 not progressing very well is not majorly due to age cheating. We agree that age cheating is indeed a problem but there are other factors responsible for their lack of progress. There are many factors that bothers on technical, social, psychological and economic reasons. 1. Our local leagues are not well developed which means, if no European clubs come for any of them, their chances of progressive development will be hampered. Also, some of them are still doing well in our local leagues but who remembers them? 2. This problem is not peculiar with Nigerian team. If you look at many countries even those with developed leagues, how many of those players realy excel in later years? For example in this Spanish team you mentioned De Gea...who else? We can also mention that Ajiboye is still doing well in Nigeria and is one of the goal keepers called to the Super Eagles camp recently. So, we can see that the Spanish team has not realy made much progress despite their superior league and development. 3. The strategy and focus of our football administrators and coaches also need to change from that of winning cups to development of the lads. This way, the coaches will not want to win at all cost thereby engaging over age players but will develop younger lads for the future. 4. The mentality of our society also need to change. Once any of the lads excel, the family and community sees them as cash cow and the focus is now about how much money the boy can make rather than how can the boy progress professionally. This causes a lot of distractions to the boys. 5. Our FA also lack technical and professional abilities to nurture these boys to stardom. 6. Because the competitions occur every 2 years, the regular occurrence makes it difficult to follow up with the boys in terms of mentor ship, professional development and other assistance, as focus is shifted every 2 years to new boys and he previous are easily forgotten and left on their own. This is a difficult one to deal with. As, if the games are staged with many years apart, how do we handle the budding talents that would have come through within the period of no games? 7. The government must also jettison the huge cash reward to these boys. It is a distraction. Once some of them get exposed to a lot of cash, the hunger to relay excel will reduce. 8. Most of our players are indiscipline. This hurt but it is the truth. Small money gets into their heads and they start misbehaving. Carrying girls up and down, drinking and partying and no longer taking training seriously. Once they have money, their parents (who are sometimes poor and dependent on them) cannot even advise to them anymore. All these contributes to their premature downfall in their professional life. 9. An average Nigerian lacks longevity, we like quick fix, immediate glory etc. This is why we cannot do well in long distance races or games/sport that require endurance. This social, physiological and psychological conditioning also makes it difficult to stay playing professional for long term especially once they come to money. 10. Lastly, most of these players, play football to escape poverty not because they relay love the game. Its all about the money. So, once they get a club that pays them decent salary that makes them escape poverty and take care of relations, they loose the hunger to excel. After all, na money I dey find and I don get am.
We were very proud of this team and we'll keep celebrating,they were very incredible.. One day we'll have these set of players in our Senior team, lift the cup for us.. #ProudlyNigerian 🏆🏆🏆🏆
When a Spanish player wants to play a PK, the Naija fans begins to shout "over the bar" Hahahahaha 😅😂🤣 we celebrated all over the streets of Nigeria that day.
Great memorial victory for my beloved country,on that day I was not able to eat nor sleep, what's great moment, may God continue to bless our one and only the most blessed country in the world NIGERIA.
Kudos to Nigeria my Country. ⚽⚽⚽⚽ For making us proud and recognised in the mist of the whole world. .by winning the triumph. .. Nigerian under 17 team. .always undefeatable...💜💜💛💛
Those were some parents vs kids of Spain. Explains why our football never progresses. Like look at the captains. The Nigerian captain would pass for the dad of the Spanish captain
I don't know why people like you come online to post stuff like this I don't know your aim do you think before this guys were selected the were not tested and approved to play under 17
This is the three times Nigeria U17 is winning this world cup...frist time was in CHINA..send time was in JAPAN...and now was in KOREA..maka it three times..Kudos to my people
The death rate in NFA is becoming too high, I think there should be a check. Steven Keshi, Dalung's wife, and some other technical people have died in their 50s
Looking at this joy and celebration today, I realize Nigeria was lucky to win this trophy. Today, Lukman. Chrisantos, Ajiboye etc are very far compared to Bojan, De Gear of Man U, Tony Kross of Germany. What a life... But all the same, we won.
@@justiniyke4122 Nigeria didn't won this tournament by luck, the guys worked for it. They were very unfortunate to come from a country that lacks good management
That's my people Nigerian I'm really Happy for you guys, I wish I have this opportunity that you guys have today because I'm a good football player I'm still hoping to God.

Well isn’t it strange that none of them made it further after such a fantastic performance? May the gentle soul of the coach Rest In Peace. He was a great man - and had the health issues even then, which made it hard for him to shout during the matches.
Mr Man don't believe what is not the white prepare for the future with under 17 and 20 but our own is to reign that moment. That's y it will hard for Africa country to lift the world cup.
Truth is there is no continuity in Nigeria that is why we can't see players who won the under 17 tournament grow into super eagles i mean all of them also ,enabling league that can expose them to the world properly we need to promote our own imagine degea now in man u and Spain no 1,while we can't find Ajiboye anywhere today.
Oh my God !!! I can’t believe this I was young during this time. Wow! So we are genius! Can’t wait to see these guys play for us again please find them
Need to develop local league. Gone are the days of Rangers, Shooting Stars, Mighty Jets, Bendel insurance etc. They produced Odegbami, Okala, Chukwu, Lawal, Ogedegbe, Amazimaka, etc...
Truth to be told about our players. We Africans have a problem. We have to still keep developing ourselves to reach the top level. That's the damn difference with our African players and their white counterparts. The white people keep their heads down and keep working hard to reach top level. That's why most of our players we don't get to hear from them after U17 bcos some of them make wrong choices in choosing clubs to develop in their careers.
@@senatoraguolu4773 you are 100%correct bro they will no that,that particular club would favour them just because of the money is very big they will choose that club then the one that will make them grow you are right bro I agree with you 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Seriously? You are asking where they are? Bros, you be Nigerian na. You and i know these guys are not 17 years old. At a minimum, they have an average age of 30. This is why we don't hear from them down the line. Think about it, compared to other countries, how many of our age group players graduate to the senior team. What happened to Osondu should have opened your eyes na.
Great memorable one.Nigeria should cultivate habit of keeping d young footballers bcos at the young level we are d best. May d perfect soul of our coach YEMI TELLA rest in peace.
Nigeria become the most popular country in the whole africa/world through football music,bralliant, but our stupid leader keep killing our dreams,God will not have mercy on them.
They mismanaged everything , human and natural resources., Fr Australia to new Zealand to every part of Europe and America u see Nigeria doing well in every field. From our past to the present leaders , they have all fall. Now l understand why someone said our leaders , present n past should be given a mass burial.
With nostalgia, can't forget this day in 2007; joy all over the continent but, heavy hearts after a few months, the great Prof Yemi Tela passed on to the great beyond...
Give it all to the goalkeeper. Imagine the bullet shot shot saved at extra time. Pushed off the ball over the bar yet had his hand hang on the bar. Lovely!
We keep wasting talents in Nigeria, thats why England will keep taking our players, i don't even know a guy like hik exist, i don't know where he is now, and we've been having goalkeeper issues recently.
It is a shame indeed. Now we are looking for goal keepers when we have Ajiboye, Alapasu and the likes...This is what coruption can do...I really weep for Nigeria
What we don't realised is that the Europeans and Americans have good youth football development than Africans. If the Nigerian team were to be from any European countries, most of this players would have been world cup winners or close to. But Africans face a process of used and dump, even the benefits accrued to them take years before the players can get it. Atimes it is even through protest. Dele Ajiboye is still playing but underrated because he is in Nigerian local league. The problem of African youth football is not age cheat or over age players but poor management system and psychologists
It reported that before 2007 FIFA U-17 World Cup in South Korea that Dele Ajiboye was already 12 years older, was married and had two kid as well as expecting the third one.
Why can't we ask our self a very big Deep question,were are this great Nigeria under 17 teams now.may God help my country Nigeria,country were leaders kills destiny and dreams,Nigeria youths are above Nigeria evils leaders destruction 👏👏👏👏
have just watched this am not Nigerian am from UGANDA but if the government of Nigeria didn't give the goalkeeper a medal or an outstanding recognition ,then no patriotism at all
My dear our government nowadays na devil, at times dem will leave our nigerians player treating dem enyhow the players will start waiting for them with much time waisted b4 picking dem for airport no respect there's no honor for dem this present government is so demonic ,...
am not tired of warching this game may God bring joy back to our football teams in Nigeria we miss those days of joy
The amount of joy I have in me watching this right now.. words can not explain.
May our glory days return and never depart from us again. Amen 🙏🏽

Where is this Nigeria keeper ? so confident and good ...
We keep wasting talents in Nigeria, thats why England will keep taking our players, i don't even know a guy like hik exist, i don't know where he is now, and we've been having goalkeeper issues recently.
Kudos to the Goal keeper..nd all the team mates
imagine De gea is now Spanish goalkeeper while Nigeria could not follow up Ajiboye and now looking for a goalkeeper shame to Nigeria FA
Pure truth bro...na wa cha
See Merida throws spit with anger from his mouth. lol
where's their best player that Same year bojan kirkr' football is not like that don't judge that way bro
iamkrazybonez you're talking like a big idiot, do you have good agent do you have good football leagues in Nigeria? How can they scout?
It is a shame indeed. Now we are looking for goal keepers when we have Ajiboye, Alapasu and the likes...This is what coruption can do...I really weep for Nigeria
The problem is that our boys use to give fake age and when they play few years, their real age will begin to fight them
I so much enjoyed watching my dear country leading from 2017 thanks so much guys.
What we don't realised is that the Europeans and Americans have good youth football development than Africans. If the Nigerian team were to be from any European countries, most of this players would have been world cup winners or close to. But Africans face a process of used and dump, even the benefits accrued to them take years before the players can get it. Atimes it is even through protest. Dele Ajiboye is still playing but underrated because he is in Nigerian local league.
The problem of African youth football is not age cheat or over age players but poor management system and psychologists
It reported that before 2007 FIFA U-17 World Cup in South Korea that Dele Ajiboye was already 12 years older, was married and had two kid as well as expecting the third one.
Very very true and so painful for this our players
@@skiffelati3952 yet he was still very much energetic to continue his carrier if only Nigeria had a good management.
We got good keeper and good penalty players if not Spain played so well.
Love this match and Nigerian squad then
Why can't we ask our self a very big Deep question,were are this great Nigeria under 17 teams now.may God help my country Nigeria,country were leaders kills destiny and dreams,Nigeria youths are above Nigeria evils leaders destruction 👏👏👏👏
simply magnificent
great nation nageria
have just watched this am not Nigerian am from UGANDA but if the government of Nigeria didn't give the goalkeeper a medal or an outstanding recognition ,then no patriotism at all
I remember they were all given national honours.
They didn’t get jack! Probably shared the tournament spoils within themselves as officials and politicians.
My dear our government nowadays na devil, at times dem will leave our nigerians player treating dem enyhow the players will start waiting for them with much time waisted b4 picking dem for airport no respect there's no honor for dem this present government is so demonic ,...
Haha we don't even know where he is again... And right now we have goalkeeper crisis.
This Ajiboy would have do us more good than others
Having good leaders has nothing to do with it.Brazil won three world cup titles during the worst military dictatorship
This was so fantastic then...
Very nice one
As I watched the celebration I was also shaking my phone like as if itvwas the trophy up Nigeria
Nigerians are really talented.
Understatement. We are blessed band gifted but cursed with terrible leaders.
I love Nigeria from Indonesian
This is fantastic
In Europe, most player are picked from high school... But here in Nigeria, thy are picked from clubs
can you believe that the Spanish goal keeper is the same De Gea of Man United now. where are other Nigerians ?
Idris Adelakun too bad we can't see any of our own u17 playing for top club.
Idris Adelakun because they were more than 17 years when they played this game..old guy who claimed to be 17 lol
Idris Adelakun lie
Age is the problem. Some of the players then were about 27yrs old
Idris Adelakun yea not only de gea look at bojan ,illaramendi
Wow😯 I missed something😪 a great day💪 I have to say... #gr8_9ja🇳🇬
De Gea of Manchester United 😁😁
Oh my careerer............indeed a great memory and a great win for the nation
Bless YT for accessible memories.
Nigeria has talents, I don't know why the rest of Africa does not emulate Nigeria in nurturing their talents.
what do you by nurturing talent?Where are the so called talent you nurtured?
I remember that day, the match played around 11 am Nigerian time. Glory be to God almighty alone
Kudos, green white green
NIGERIA can score sha.
Goalkeeper for me na oga kpatakpata for post.
R.I.P Rasheed Yekini,I'm Tanzanian but I appreciated the former player for Nigeria
