The boys were trrully U-17 . Victor Igbinoba was my classmate at Western Boys High School , Benin - City . Victor Igbinoba came from a very poor home and left for the tournament from a mud house at No 9 Uyiekpen Street , Akpakpava ., Benin - City . Igbinoba took his studies serious but not so for Kingsley Aikhionbare , who was years afta , stabbed to death in London On Igbinobas return from China , Flash Flamingoes of Benin , signed l him with the sum of #48,000.
Ugbade the first blak person to lift fifa trophy. Most memory moment in my life watching football before Atlanta 96. This monent Ugbade lifted the cup used to herald the NTA network news for very long while growing up in the 80s
Nigeria most times don't appreciate their heroes. It's totally unfair to these players who sacrificed so much for the country. I remember Nduka Ugbade scoring the equalizer against USSR at the Saudi '89 U-20 World Cup that was called the "Damman Miracle". He was playing with an injury, yet he found courage to overlap and score that goal (he played as a defender if I can remember correctly). His goal made it 4-4 and Nigeria went on to win 5-4 on penalties. They eventually lost to a Luis Figo inspired Portugal team but the Nigerian team had once again reminded the World of the fact that Nigeria is a Footballing nation.
bringing back the memories...I will never forget Ebenezer Obey's song for this guys...this was when football was a passion and not what it has become today
If Nigeria doesn't remember you.. You guys will always remain in my heart love you guys for the pride you brought to me as a Nigerian I believe in the future all heroes that brought joy to Nigeria will be remembered for their services to the country
Nigeria finished the final against Germany with 10 players after one of the defensive midfielder was red carded by the central referee. .the sports ministry should reward these guys with cash after decades of a glorious history.
Amongst all these players, I’ve seen nduka if ads and played against the team he was coaching then in ikeja army barracks and also attended his anchored Coca Cola U-17 trials held in owerri in the year 2012
@@AHumanClay most of them didn't continue with football afterwards only a few played for local semi pro clubs. Others went back to school on scholarships abroad. They 3 players interviewed on this video played up to the senior national teams. The Captain Nduka Ugbade and keeper Lucky played pro football abroad briefly. The Captain has been involved coaching younger players as the assistant coach to win the same Trophy in 2013 in United Arab Emirates.

Great refreshing memories and content.
I was in Lagos as a primary 2 pupil when I watched the tournament during the holidays in August 1985.🎉🕘⚽🇳🇬💚
This was when i started watching football.
Is anyone here In 2020?
Great memories. Watched this on television. Was very proud of these boys!
Nigeria finished the final against Germany with 10 players after one of the defensive midfielder was red carded by the central referee. .the sports ministry should reward these guys with cash after decades of a glorious history.
Duere was his name. The refereeing in that final was so biased, only God helped us.
Was even crying watching these thanks for the video

These Nigerian players have already been playing for the main Pro Nigerian Team, haven't they?
They weren't. They were selected from high school and teenage clubs around the country.
That's why they were not known
