I can't believe I'm watching an NPFL team on Tifo Football
Am so happy
I'm still screaammmmiiiinggggg...somebody pinch me
I'm so proud
Tbh
Tifo is the best!!! I'm so happy
I love this. Thank you TIFO for these exposition. This is a 360° expository on the truth about the Nigerian society, religion system and football administration.
Well done with the vocal genius Joe Devine.
I am a Nigerian and i must say that you got everything pot on
even from snake charming pasterpeneurs
and we the people choosing EPL or LaLiga Games rather than watching ours
Yeah its shocking. Thankfully I have a local team now in Abuja which is Sporting Supreme and they are one of the best run clubs in the entire country
Tifo gave an historic account of church, country and club. A masterclass in football and socio religious culture with its influence on football and everyday life in Lagos. Great work as usual. Very well researched.
I'm Nigerian and this means a lot. You guys are great! 👊
Really impressed Tifo cared to delve into African football thoroughly researching and accurately delivering this expository on a "who cares about such?" Nigerian club. It's delightful and admirable.
Never has a videos title shocked me more than this 😂😂🇳🇬🇳🇬
Honestly, I almost pissed myself
'When I read said 'die in the fire' My chwest
@@davidadeyemi9466 That got me. I literally burst out laughing. Shocker, christians don't support gays. I mean who saw that coming?
😂😂😂
Wow. Alot of nigerians follow Tifo football. Imagine my shock surfing through my youtube wall and found a Tifo analysis on MFC and Nigerian football, i was freaking curious to see what they had to say. and i loved his "Pastorprenurial labelling of the Nigerian churche business
Ghanaian here. A breath of fresh air for all the quality videos you send. Thanks for the African content.
Your jollof is still disgusting tho 😂🇳🇬
@@c.mstizzy I beg to differ.. 🤣🤣🤣🤣. Ghanaian jollof is the best and you know it!!!
@@Crowned-Qwesi no o it's poison!! It's so bad it doesn't even have a capital j 🤣🤣 Nigerian Jollof is undefeated 🇳🇬🇳🇬
the Blizzard + Tifo's animation = ~10 minutes of football heaven
Jonathan has always been a genius but credit also to you guys at TIFO. This was a truly pleasant surprise. Nigeria, potentially, has the ability to be a world leader in almost every economic sense. Sadly, I don't see it happening in our lifetime.
All things aside, "The Mountain of Fire and Miracles" is probably the coolest name ever for a football team
Amazing stufff man....As as Nigerian🇳🇬, it is really sad to see how Corruption has blighted local football.
Much respect to Joe for not butchering our names too badly ✊🏿. Now please someone tell the tv Pundits to stop calling Mbappe “Embappe” 🤨🙄🙄🙄
@a one Youve commented negative things about nigerians everywhere, who hurt you
As a Nigerian, this is very impressive.
No doubt about how you guys do your research. Again, I'm impressed. Thank you very much for this video.
Amazing GOD BLESS THIS TEAM. - Aston Villa fan
Huge fan of tifo and a Nigerian this shows that most if not all of what tifo reports is true cause i sure know this vid is spot on.
Could there be a more epic club name than “Mountain of Fire and Miracles”?
😂😂😂😂
2:53 a religious tournament held to decide which Christians are best at football 😂😂😂
i thought that was the superbowl.
I'm in tears watching this 😢😢😢
Thank you Tifo! Thanks a lot for this!
Even the Nigerian media can't put it together as good as this 🙌🙌
I am so impressed by this!!!! Props to you guys! Tifo is the best. Please talk about Accra Hearts of Oak and the glory days of Asec Mimosas
This is so dope. Great journalism! Thank you🙏🏾
Saw a billboard of Lazurus Muoka (Lords chosen) on Tifo Football. Lmao hilarious. You guys really did your research, well articulated video. And please don’t get us started on Pastorpreneurs in Nigeria. Great Video Tifo
I've been to a Mountain of Fire Church in America, i'd describe those guys as prayer warriors.
This is special as a Nigeria I am surprise. Thanks
Great adaptation, we have millions of stories to tell. Nigeria to the world!!!
Mountain of Fire and Miracles is possibly the greatest team name I've ever seen.
Admittedly, I only have had one run in with "Church Teams" - and that was signing some players from South Korean Baptist Church FC in American Samoa, for my all conquering FM17 Pago Youth side.
There is a south Korean baptist church in American Samoa with a football team? That sounds like it needs a video
A video on Indonesian version of Napoli, Persipura Jayapura (Black Pearls) coming from one of the poorest province of Indonesia, West Papua, might be a good idea.
Spot on ✌🏽
Wow!!! Thank you for this Tifo football. You guys are the best, absolutely!!!! I'm Nigerian by the way, so I'm so elated by this video on an indigenous clubside... Bravo Tifo!
A really good video TIfo this really is good that you have shined a light on African football and other countries which are lesser known. This really gives diversity in content and I’m looking forward to future content similar to this one.
Thank you for this Tifo! As much as we on the African continent support European clubs it’s good that you are making efforts to show that our African football is also important. Please also make videos about the state Post-2010 South African football. Possibly how Mamelodi Sundowns have faired reasonably well on the world state at the Club World Cup in recent years.
"The popularism of pastorprenuers is symptomatic of a population which disgruntled by graft and cronyism at the top of society has turned its hopes on snake-charmers and tongue speakers"
Butchered some names, but it is to be expected.
Great video and hopefully many more from Nigeria
You say "some"? 😂
Almost all 😂
Awesome. I'm a Nigerian and proud to see this on TIFO. However, let me make a quick correction: Abia state(where Enyimba FC is located) is NOT in the Niger Delta. It is in the Southeast part of Nigeria. Thank you.
I'm Nigerian but even I don't know this team.
Btw a lot of churches in Newham play football; Baptist, Catholic, you name it. Still to create a league though.
I can imagine big athletic lads winning every game but nobody swearing or drinking.
Gordon Ferrar
😂😂😂😂
Thank you for making a video of my country :)
We are international fam!!!!. Naija to the world!!!!
Great stuff. Fascinating story...
Awesome video! African club football is such a unique, interesting (and often weird) world that isn’t paid enough attention by the media. Content like this is why TIFO is the best in the business.
I love you guys..Keep it up 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🤯🤯🇳🇬
Tifo great job.. Shows your love for the game has has no boundaries
Great video Tifo, could you do a video on Mourinho's first reign at Chelsea please?
As a Nigerian and football fan, this is amazingly spot on. (Except Enyimba is from the south East.) Your got so many things right about the state of Nigerian club football, the extreme religious belief in Nigeria and so much more. Let's not forget the beautiful animations and soothing narration.
Wow, I am Nigerian and I couldn't find anything to fault (not that I was looking lol). well done.
😢😢
Dear Tifo Football..
You just got a subscriber for life.
Words cannot express my gratitude for doing a video of a team from my country.
Bless You.
Thank you!
Tifo always impressive in his research. Thanks for sharing and uploading. Love it.
There isn't any better football content on youtube . I'm a Nigerian and I don't even have 1/5 of this info . Awesome stuff guys
That’s man’s old church you know! 👊🏾
Great video, as a Nigerian I'm surprised that you can know this much.
But man, you really butchered those names. 😅
My full name is Eseose Jesuoluwa Agboaye. The number of times people have struggled to say my name, even when I shorten it is ridiculous...
@@Ese96Agoaye but seriously fam, your name is actually hard to pronounce. 😅
@@leinadsegun Can't be hard to pronounce "Jesuoluwa" though, is it?
@@Ese96Agoaye no, that's pretty straight forward
@@leinadsegun My last name is pretty hard. I've had some people pronounce that like "boat", so "Ag-boa(as in boat)-ye(yee).
I can't believe this 😃😃. Tifo is the greatest sports channel
wow! I did not expect to see this video on Tifo Channel😂😂😂
Could you please do one on the fall of Kaizer Chiefs in the PSL.
😭
Nice, I'm happy you made a good video about my country. I'll keep working hard to become a professional footballer
great video Tifo , but Pirates is not currently the biggest team in South Africa , Sundowns is .
Ole at the wheel < Jesus at the wheel
Tifo football always with rich and original content!
Nice work!
Wow this is so informational I am nigerian
This is literally my church
This is Class. Top work tifo. +1 Subscriber here.
The CAF Champions League is the equivalent of the UEFA Champions League. The CAF Confederations Cup is the equivalent of the Europa League.
This is a masterpiece from Tifo. Extensive research was well done, and facts was told althrough
That was insightful. Ghana football is facing the same issue we're even worse than our Nigerian neighbours
The tale was exceptionally told....the illustrations superb...
I love this channel, and this is coming from a non football fan
Weird that my mum used to go to this church 😳 great work
Wow this is well documented thanks tifo
Never would have known about this. Thank you guys.
Subscribed, watched, liked, and shared. Thank you Tifo
Enyimba isn't exactly int the Oil Rich Area of the ND, but its ok. I am happy you did a video on this. Keep it going.
Entertaining and awesome as usual.
More videos on Sub Saharan clubs please. Club football in Africa is often overlooked.
shout out from South Africa and Orlando Pirates (would've preferred Mamelodi Sundowns)
Sizwe. A Mabaso would have wanted a video on kazier chiefs
Not sure what fuels this dedication, but i'm telling you, these videos makes youtube a better place!
Cheers!
The most premium football content on the Internet, bar none.
Very well done, coming from a Nigerian.
Wow, you actually covered a start up Nigerian team 🙌🙌🙌
Nice video 👏. Accurate depiction of football and the Nigerian society.
The Level of research is crazy . Well done tifo
Welldone Tifo 👏🏽👏🏽
Thought I was dizzy when I saw this title. Well done TIFO, think my parents will enjoy this. The MFM church isn't something I like, like most African churches they're largely a hope peddling business
They are not a hope peddling organization.
They are doing something good for the youths through football and yet you can't even commend them for that SMH.
People have been blessed by their religious activities, so keep hating while other people are blessed.
Amazing to see tifo talk about a Nigerian league
😂😂😂😂😂 That name, it's so long. Surely the pastorpreneur can spare some air miles for his team.
This was an interesting piece to say the least. With that being said, it is in my view that (over)religiousness in Nigeria is not because of poverty. There are quite a number of wealthy countries where religion still plays a central role in society. Even in Nigeria itself there are well educated and/or wealthy people who remain devout worshippers. Poverty is a cop-out IMO
I'd say it's a combination of different cultural and economic factors at play. Since the introduction of Protestantism in the region, the Church has served as a stepping stone to different goals. The church provided access to newer medicines, literature, funding and political connections. Even today, the facilities of some these venues are state of the art, especially in comparison to slum dwellings.
Then there is a strong culture of respect and spirituality. From a young age, people are taught to have the utmost respect for elders and powerful people, even if it's undeserved. Elder relatives, quite frankly, are only second God. If they tell you to attend a congregation, refusal isn't an option, thus continuing a generational cycle.
Spirituality is another cultural phenomenon, deities are taken very seriously regardless of sect or faith.
Mountain of fire and miracles ministries is the truly the beat church. Not just for football, but for Christ ❤️
Your voice over is captivating
here come the african football professors
Thank you for the great content, especially this one.
This is wonderful...
2:53 i don't know if it was the sentence or how he said it, but this made me chuckle
Great video! One thing, The CAF Champions League is the equivalent of the UEFA Champions League, not the Europa League.
He said confederation not champions. He's right
Blessed be the name of the Lord
For his mercies endures forever
Jesus loves all
God bless
So nice to see Nigerian representation!
would be awesome if you could do a video about Mamelodi Sundowns or the South African PSL in general.
Class. Sheer class.
One small detail tho, CAF champions league is Africa's 1st tier competition and the Europa league is the equivalent of the CAF confederation Cup.
You are a legend!!!!
Tifo is unbelievable
I did not expect this at all. Pleasantly surprised.
so surprised nice work
1 year anniversary today!
