I was still in primary school in Kenya but I remember we had the names of all the Nigerian players by heart. They we representing the African continent. I also still recall Sunday Olise's goal at the world cup. Thank you super eagles, you made our childhood what it was.
I remember, i was 12 yrs old still in nigeria when we won the Olympics. it was very late in the night, and we had no T.V. We listened to the brazil vs Nigeria Game on the radio. I remembered my father pacing back and forth the living room. When brazil was up 3:1, it was so sad. And then it was 3:2.. and before you know it, Kanu did what no nigerian has ever done, equalizer the game with brazil. That moment was a defining moment in my life, i saw my father so happy!, the noise that came up, you can hear it, flow through the night skies. Like an earthquake! i swear.. The whole nation was happy, you can see people in the streets hugging one another, no ibo, hausa, yoruba... it was just one Nigeria. No politics no religion but pure joy spread through the nation. And then, the unbelievable game winning goal came..sigh. This game was, against Brazil showed me Nigeria is filled with people with good heart. Yes, we still have greed but i will tell you.. we have football!
Tears in my eyes, reading your soulful, enchanting and valuable account from your family on Nigeria's Olympic Football 4-3 golden-goal win over Brazil in Atlanta 1996, ngussie84. I pray GOD's favour, mercies and love on Nigeria and all Nigerian People, always.
You guys deserved it , that team was so good , all the players on every position were just legends. And yes politics are there to hold people down while they make more money .
Believe me: I'm Brazilian but I'm a big fan of this Nigerian team. It's 2023 and I'm still playing Winning Eleven 2000 and it's one of my favorite teams. Babangida, Okocha and Kanu destroy with opponents! I already made a team with only African players in the master league: Kanu, Babangida, Okocha, Oliseh, Mboma, Masinga, Weah, Slimani etc. Olimpiada more than deserved, because it is not easy to beat Brazil and Argentina in the same competition.
I will never forget those games....celebration were evry where in Somalia even though we had civil war, but Nigeria made us forget. Nigeria thought Brazil & Argentin a lesson. LOVE FROM Somalia.
I love how everyone in the comments, from different parts of Africa are telling their story about these matches. Big love to everyone, Football is a beautiful game and I hope the world becomes a better place.
Indeed! Not just Africa but the Middle East, North and South America even parts of Europe. The Nigerian Super Eagles of the 90's were high achievers and brought joy and unity to so many people across the world.
What a nice souvenirs!! I remember everyone in Tunisia were celebrating every win Nigeria made. Nigerian Team and especially that generation from 1994 to 1998 was the best ever!!!
Mohamed Ben Mehressi same here in Egypt, I was nine years old and I remember my father and all my family are jumping on the air from happiness and dancing and laugh with the Nigerian players once they score a goal! 😁❤️
We can get to this point again that is if we look out of the street of best Nigeria player on each street of each state and pick out one best player each from different regions I believe with the training and all we will get there again
Brings tears to my eyes. Such an incredible Nigerian team. I was a young boy in Kenya then and it felt like we had won the World Cup. No African football team has brought joy to Africa like that Nigerian Olympic mens football team
When I was watching this match I was crying, because I remembered our heroes past, when Nigerians are united, no tribalism, no nepotism, no corruption, no bribery, where love and unity with peace reign, bound with freedom in one nation; their is nothing like killings, we love ourselves whether you are from the south or north,nor the west, no book haram, we managed and enjoyed our resources; my tears could not allow me to write so I will stop here for me to continue to cry; Nigeria unite. I Love Nigeria that Giants of Africa.
Time flies.this game brings tears to my eyes.what a game it was for all Africans. I was in my country Ethiopia we all went out to the street to celebrate I wanna be teenager again
That was my best moments in the history of the African football. I was the happiest guy in the world after they missed to win the 1994 world cup. Yes, got hurt after that game against Italy. Always been a great nation of football. Love from Senegal.
I was about 5 when this game happened. I remember my dad and my uncles watching it the Nigeria Vs Brazil game and how much joy there was in the air, I didn’t understand the significance of Nigeria beating Brazil and then Argentina right after. It was beautiful to see looking back on it now as an adult. I literally have tears in my eyes as I write this. I’m not an emotional person at all but this brought out my emotions because it shows the potential that Nigeria has. If we invested more in ourselves, imagine what we could accomplish? From football to academics, politics to business and so on. We have great people in this country and this Nigerian team is just a small sample fo the rest of us. One day we will reach our potential. Now let me wipe these tears of my eyes before I get caught being soft 😂.
I had just finished my WAEC exam at the time. There was no light in my neighbourhood, and very few homes had portable power generators. Our entire compound watched the match on a black and white TV powered by a car battery, set up by our electrician neighbour. I had a front seat position. I will never forget the jubilation that ripped through the air that night. It was a perfect moment of unity and love among Nigerians. Everyone who gave up and went to bed when the score line was against us, got out of bed. And celebrations lit up the sky like daytime. It was beautiful!
Kanu is just one of those players you can't help but love. Such a star and down right amazing guy he did more than lead us to victory, he scored very crucial goals as well. A true LEGEND indeed!!!
I am From Ethiopia I watched that game in Addis Ababa City!! The City was shaken that night our first African team Winn Olympic Cup!! I love Nigerian National Football Team!!
I still remember when it was midnight in Cairo and You hear a big explosion it's Nigeria scoring a new goal. You should mention that Nwankwo signed to Inter Milan few days after the tournament and the medical test revealed he has a big problem in his heart and doctors in Inter were wondering how come he still a live.
Proud to be an African , every time I watch this video I feel like WOW that was incredible and I remember that team , every name every star and I miss these football days .. with all love from egypt
I agree! I am not a soccer fan but I follow the wc and olympics (Now at adult age) This is the greatest upset I have heard of ever! Even bigger then the Australian skating gold!
I can't forget this big game. As we were watching the match, Nepa took out light and I Remembered me crying with mixed feeling of us loosing and somehow happy because I won't see Brazil celebrating. Few minutes later the whole street screamed out loud and instantly I knew a comeback was happening as no Internet then . With luck that day Nepa brought light and it was 3-3, shortly nigeria scored the golden goal and the ultimate celebration started with people chanting our players name and music kicking off. This is a priceless memory .Nigeria was one of the happiest nation back then,where football always bring all together regardless of ethnicity, religion ,politics or rivalry .
Brother am from Somalia and this makes me cry a whole day. However we are isolated from all sorts of governance and law and order, such events makes us to silence the guns and hug each other with solidarity and panAfricanism. Congratulations big nigeria. You made my day on the eventful day.
The Brazil game remains in the heart of every Nigerian till today! I remember when we were trailing 3-1. We had a penalty and Okocha was going to take it. My dad said he was going to miss and he missed. The only time I had so much hate in my heart for my dad 😃. But with Papillo majestically equalising and scoring the winner, all was forgiven! Most people will not remember that Okocha missed a penalty in the Brazil match because it is not on any highlights. But I was 11 years old and still remember it thanks to my dad's (unwelcomed) prediction during the match
The greatest win! Period. Let’s argue in the next life! The greatest trophy ever won ! It was dynamic! Liberia celebrated that entire night even tough we were going through a brutal civil war in Liberia ! Currently residing in Trenton, New Jersey!!!
Alexandre Sarmento the irony is that many of your Brazilian people are of direct Nigerian heritage. Carnival, candoble, athletisicism. I love Brazilian people as well.
Yeah I know...Brazil's people is a blend of whole world but mainly from Africa, and It exert a great influency on culinary, arts, literature, and popular language. At the time when Brazil Was monarchy our country was the 3rd most powerful economy in the world with a giant army force in the sea, and the brilliant mind from that time were a african descendent called André Reboucas
It was really amazing journey how Nigeria won Gold, How they put every tough opponents out, sometimes it's really doesn't matter from which country, under what political scenario you are playing, the thing only matters is your Country, the determination you put to get your Country flag rise high, and moment you give to all Countrymen to unite together to cheer your Country. I am watching from India and hoping one day our team would get their and make believe that Cricket is not only game to be played and cheered for.
This was definitely the Golden team of Nigeria. I remember the Brazil game watching very early in the morning. I was 4yrs of age and I could remember my aunt and other siblings so jubilant after the Golden goal. There was even a song composed after the match. Lovely moments in the country's history. So sad our country can reproduce such players anymore.
the worst thing about that offside trap was the fact the ball would have gone straight to a argentina player if he just stayed in his position and he was the one that played the player on aswell lol
i still remember those matches like it were yesterday, i was 15 and my father accepted to let us watch the matches and stay wake up till 6 AM in Egypt time,, we was so so so proud about Africans matches on WC 90 , 94 and finally won the gold in Olympics, love you Africa.
It is really a great memory, all syrians were cheering Nigeria same as it is our team. We were super happy with their wins and the way they played with all big names especially Kanu and Okosha ❤ from 🇸🇾
We are African, even if not, he/she might just be surprised and might even admire the victory more than we do. Let's know we borrowed English and not everyone speaks it and they are not good at it. They have to write it the way they understand it.
All best 3 South American teams that time, Mexico, Brazil and Argentina knocked out by Nigeria. Now you understand the rivalry when Nigeria plays South American teams these days.
The dream team of the Nigerian football. I still know almost all players though I'm from Romania. I love African football - pure talent, pure joy, pure lions !! 😎👍
Arguably, the Greatest moments of international Soccer . How one African nation took down all the greatest countries of soccer! That team deserves a Documentary film.
This victory was celebrated in Ethiopia as if our own team had won the gold. What a generation Nigeria had !

I cried and go to sleep I was 10 years then in next day I see my family smiling then I know Nigeria win the game, love to Nigeria from saudi Arabia
On that day, half of me was in my mom, and half in my dad
You guys deserved it , that team was so good , all the players on every position were just legends. And yes politics are there to hold people down while they make more money .

Thank you Nigeria! This Ethiopian is extremely proud of your achievement!
Brings tears to my eyes. Such an incredible Nigerian team. I was a young boy in Kenya then and it felt like we had won the World Cup. No African football team has brought joy to Africa like that Nigerian Olympic mens football team
As a Tunisian, I believe Nigerian football national Teams were always the best who represented Africa
Always my bro ❤️
When I was watching this match I was crying, because I remembered our heroes past, when Nigerians are united, no tribalism, no nepotism, no corruption, no bribery, where love and unity with peace reign, bound with freedom in one nation; their is nothing like killings, we love ourselves whether you are from the south or north,nor the west, no book haram, we managed and enjoyed our resources; my tears could not allow me to write so I will stop here for me to continue to cry; Nigeria unite.

It was a win for Africa.

Nice to see Nigeria do well especially against Brazil and Argentina
Ethan Colley weren’t easy to accept it but were al happy for Nigerian team
I am brazilian and I reckon that kanu busted brazil! This Nigeria generation has taught how to play a beautiful football
Alexandre Sarmento the irony is that many of your Brazilian people are of direct Nigerian heritage. Carnival, candoble, athletisicism. I love Brazilian people as well.
Yeah I know...Brazil's people is a blend of whole world but mainly from Africa, and It exert a great influency on culinary, arts, literature, and popular language. At the time when Brazil Was monarchy our country was the 3rd most powerful economy in the world with a giant army force in the sea, and the brilliant mind from that time were a african descendent called André Reboucas
Don't forget that Ronaldinho himself said that many skills under his arsenal were learned from Jay-Jay Okocha while at PSG...
Lolzzz
This makes me proud to be Nigerian 🇳🇬
I was a kid in a small town in Morocco when Nigeria made it❤️
I miss Okocha
Yeah. He was an absolute legend.
Real magician, he isn't as boring as players now
I miss taribo west's hair
One of the greatest football player
All african missing him
Nostalgia 😪
It was really amazing journey how Nigeria won Gold, How they put every tough opponents out, sometimes it's really doesn't matter from which country, under what political scenario you are playing, the thing only matters is your Country, the determination you put to get your Country flag rise high, and moment you give to all Countrymen to unite together to cheer your Country. I am watching from India and hoping one day our team would get their and make believe that Cricket is not only game to be played and cheered for.
The technical ability of Kanu is a joy to watch still 🙌
All these are among the greatest come back in football history the best team in Nigeria and Africa so far
Those days when if you first score against Nigeria you get ready for Nigeria to defeat you
Still crying from this video. These were our real heroes 🇳🇬
This was definitely the Golden team of Nigeria. I remember the Brazil game watching very early in the morning. I was 4yrs of age and I could remember my aunt and other siblings so jubilant after the Golden goal. There was even a song composed after the match. Lovely moments in the country's history. So sad our country can reproduce such players anymore.
the worst thing about that offside trap was the fact the ball would have gone straight to a argentina player if he just stayed in his position and he was the one that played the player on aswell lol
Over smart
Imagine playing an offside trap in the last minutes of the game where if you fail you would lose gold.
Brazil - Nigeria, that could have easily been the final of the WC two years earlier.
Could be one of the 98 WC quarterfinals, but Nigeria lose to Denmark
The Golden generation. Am Kenyan but this was my best African line up. I have never forgotten
i still remember those matches like it were yesterday, i was 15 and my father accepted to let us watch the matches and stay wake up till 6 AM in Egypt time,, we was so so so proud about Africans matches on WC 90 , 94 and finally won the gold in Olympics, love you Africa.
It is really a great memory, all syrians were cheering Nigeria same as it is our team.
We were super happy with their wins and the way they played with all big names especially Kanu and Okosha ❤ from 🇸🇾
This happens only one time in the history, african country beats brazil to qualify to the final, and beat argentina in the final.
You are a big fool
so why cant the terrorist do a repeat
We are African, even if not, he/she might just be surprised and might even admire the victory more than we do. Let's know we borrowed English and not everyone speaks it and they are not good at it. They have to write it the way they understand it.

Well deserved gold medal 🏅
my mom was literally 7 months pregnant with me and almost fell rejoicing for the match.. thank God tho.. lol.. i was a tough baby
Haha🤣🤣🤣
I was 9 months pregnant with my son. He came a week later NG 💚
Same with me, my mum was eight months pregnant with me.
I was 7 and remembered that horrible offside trap and cheering for Nigera! They had such a fun, and talented, generation!
All best 3 South American teams that time, Mexico, Brazil and Argentina knocked out by Nigeria. Now you understand the rivalry when Nigeria plays South American teams these days.
so true
Mexico is not South America...
Mexico is from North America, and I have never seen any rivalry.
@@Teast92278 mexico is not a rival .. they are learners
North America ;)
I still have goose pimples watching this after 22 years! O Nigeria! Take me back to the glory days!
The day Nigeria showed the world what we can do when we are united and not distracted by the noise.
This was an African victory. Impeccable comebacks.
It was great indeed,I miss the playing days of KANU and okocha.
That Babayaro's goal celebration remains iconic😢
Remembering the joy of this day as a kid brought tears to my eyes.
I do remember, imagine Brazil with Bebeto, Roberto Carlos, Rivaldo and the phenomena Ronaldo de Lima beaten.
Nigeria team was superb.
The day every African was cheering for 🇳🇬!
Nigeria🇳🇬 we are
Together we stand
United we reign
Ifeanyi Draxlar Victory story story ....u think say hausa dey hear that one...we ain't bro
Nigeria made the whole Africa proud❤
it warms my heart to know that an African nation were once crowned champions in a world football competition
Feeling nostalgic for a time I wasn't born in.
It was an honour to witness this heroic Nigerian team live back in the day!
as a argentinien myself, I think that was well diserved, Nigeria made the world proudy.
Papillo... you have made us proud.
Who remembers the song that was made "When Nigeria beat Brazil, when Nigeria beat Brazil ooo, Bebeto come dey cry, When Nigeria beat Brazil"
I do remember very very well
Just wish naija will be the way it was before,peaceful and lovable one nigeria
@@fitfactorynigeria445 My brother no be lie. It wasn't all great back then but it was so lovable. Now it's just a disaster. Only God can help us

Stunning victories from the underdog team . Simply magnificent. Argentine 🇦🇷 supporter .

I loved this team, from Nigeria to the World, haven't seen any other like this. Jay, Kanu you made Africa proud.
Brilliant video quality, brilliant story, memorable run!

That last Kanu goal vs Brazil! wow! To think Arsenal was blessed with Bergkamp, Kanu and Henry at the same time, kings of 1st touch
I'm so proud to be a Nigerian ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Arguably, the Greatest moments of international Soccer . How one African nation took down all the greatest countries of soccer! That team deserves a Documentary film.
Well said
Kanu always a legend and hero, up Nigeria
I remember the semi-final, I was awakened by the screaming. It was late at night and the whole street was wild with celebration. Proudly Nigerian
I was 16 yrs
😢 Never forget Nigeria 1994_ 1996.sweet times.
