Nigerian team of 94 was in the top 5 world ranking, very sick team

I am supremely impressed by Iroha, he’s not praised enough.

Zambian's could only do much...i really wanted a win for Zambia. Having lost the best team in that horrendous Air crush and assembling a makeshift side at the same time reaching the finals was great... KING BWALYA & THE LIKES OF THE LATE CHABALA, MUTALE ETC MADE ME LOVE SOCCER.

The greatest Nigerian team EVER. Rashidi Yekini, THE BULL and gentle giant okechukwu. i do hope we return to this sort of form one day. we'll be super powers. LOVE YOU NIGERIA!!!!!

i cried for this game when lost from italy in world cup i still can't pass it love and respect from egypt

Nigeria's greatest football team of all-time.

History will never forget steven keshi won it as a captain in tunissia 1994 and as a coach in 2013 in south africa..Rip big boss,not also forgeting nigeria highest goal scorer of all tume Rashidi yekini rip in eagles gagling striker,uche okafor who form a formidable defence with gentle giant uche unkechukwu Rip in uche okafor.

zambia was the best in this tournament despite losing the finals after an early lead. zambia, we are still waiting for you guys ...

This is the best team Nigeria has ever had, I wish there will be another team like this.

Maybe for your generation. It is truly a great team. But the generation that watched the Green Eagles of the late 70s and early 80s would contest your claim. The team of Christian Chukwu, Segun Odegbami, Emmanuel Okala, Best Ogedegbe, Mudashiru Lawal, Felix Owolabi, Kunle Awesu, Adokie Amaesimaka, Aloysius Atuegbu, Henry Nwosu and others. It is just that globalisation through ICT is creating more exposures for new generations. But if you watched their matches, you would appreciates what I said.

i watched this and was almost crying .this was the t eam of the century.a team that dazzled everyone they met.lets hope vogts can do the same in ghana next year if he survives till then

I always say that Nigeria had Eleven coaches on the pitch. Looking at those of them who have gone into coaching, they are all doing well

Respect to Zambia n Nigeria from Egypt

rest in peace uche okafor and Rashidi yekini

All Glory be to my GOD forever and ever In JESUS CHRIST name Amen.

فريق نيجيريا94كان فريق رهيب وكان يستحق الفوز بكأس العالم لولاقلةالخبرةوالغرور

Yekini, may God grant you eternal rest for bringing joy And happiness to Nigerians

clean penalty not given wow, we still got the cup!

Wow!!! I was in high school in Kenya .. MEMORIES ... AMAZING .... I have followed The super eagles ever since .... Those names AMOKACHI ... AMUNIKE .. Then I read the novel THE CONCUBINE , And I fell in love with the country ... Then came NOLLYWOOD ... , Sorry I digress ... but my introduction to NAIJA , was tunisia 94 ... where Amokachi met his wife . , Started reading about NIGERIAN HISTORY , NMAMDI AZIKIWE , BIAFRA WAR , AMAZING COUNTRY

this team was one of the best if not the best team Nigeria ever produce

WHat a wonderful team. I miss Rasheedi Yekini. You are one of the greats bro.

As a Nigerian, I have to grudgingly think the 82-84 Cameroun team was the best Africa has ever had. Followed by Nigeria in the mid-1990s

Right bro the Cameroon team dominate the African football from 82 to 90 and then the Nigeria took over the lead in 94

wow i was too young to remember this match. i miss but these are my favorite players. i like the current ones but i like these old crew better

this wort we need now for joy to come back to Nigeria football spirit again.

we will have a team like this one day again OH God,..AMEN.

they would never be forgotten when I saw this it made me sad cus I remember how I used to love watching my Nigeria team play

This is real football with love not what our boys playing now

rip Uche Okafor and Rasheed Yekini u were a a very great player we miss you

Imagine if soko, changwe, chomba, makinka, Mwitwa, Mutale, chansa, chabala, mwila, chikwalakwala, masuwa, kangwa, simambe, mumba, watiyakeni, banda, mwanza and eston mulenga didn't perish in the Gabon air disaster......the strongest team Zambia will ever assemble.

Waoh this is wonderful

Come on,how can you honestly say that.The Zambians did well, especially considering the circumstances. However, the 1994 Super Eagles were by far the best team in the tournament and one of the finest teams in the world.

Vive le Nigeria ! Alala... quelle belle époque quand même... ^_^

Most of the players from Nkana Red Devils perished in that fatal air crash. Zambia played, but could not contain the like of Amunike, Amokachie and Okocha

siasia was the best striker we ever had was never appreciated

omg that amuneke penalty was very vivid!! lol

this is probably the best nigerian team ever and the 2nd best African team after Cameron 90

I Remember we used to play soccer using Bottle tops as Players in the 1990's.We used names like Rashidi Yekini,Amokache etc...

6 April 1994- Rwanda,remember!

@dkll99 Boy! How right can you be ? Your prediction came true.. I'm an African America of Nigerian Ancestry... Your Great team and great country has comw along way after the plane crash that took a whole generation of talented players..It aint easy rebuilding, but y'all did it...

Very nonsense highlights. I just wasted my data

this team was the best african team. That is why they were ranked #5 in the world during this time, but in the 1996 olympics, they were even better by beating Argentina(excluding Maradona) and brazil which were the defending world cup champions at that time. In fact, Nigeria would have made it to the quarter-finals of the 1994 world cup if not for Italy, which were the second best team in the tournament

Nigeria's version of the golden generation

the clearest penalty kick ever!!

Remains the best

Dream Team of Nigeria 1994.

the best nigerian team ever

Is Incredible See Pele In African But Not Is Imposible.

This great Super eagles team could have won the world cup if they held their nerve and concentration against Italy.

01:10 Ball possession, Nigeria 40% Zambia 40%. So the ball was rolling alone 20% of the time.LOL

Will the Nigerian Soccer Team Or The Soccer Federation Ever Produce Dedicated and Determined Bunch of Players Like these Lot Again ? I remember my Nigerian Dad shouting and jumping Like He Won The Lottery In 1994 At the Final Whistle...Great Scenes though!!!

I think this was the best team Nigeria has provided so far,on like the one's we have now, Ipray we should have such team again, and victory and success should come theur way, insha ALLAH{Amen}.

I think this video just shows the nigerian part of the game.

Hungary 1954 was best team never to win world cup. Love Nigeria though!! if only oliseh hadn't given that ball to baggio in the last minute. Zambia forever!!

Okocha was not supporting players in the pitch...okocha was just dreambleing in the pictch ..

Who noticed, there was Pelé watching

i love this trophy y did they changed it ?it looks better than the current i guess....

Zambia played a good game and I agree with dkII99....tht this clip is biased..!!! Zambia for life..!!! Can someone post a balanced clip..!!

Where nigeria at now? wk 2010 was bad... they gotta reach back there level !

What kind of highlight starts after the goals?? Mtcheeeew!!

Nike made those jerseys.

nigeria was really good at that time. that team was scary.

I think holland 1974 has something to say about that.

How can one get this nigerian jersey?

@nsomba Such a stupid stunt, and I'm Nigerian. Just hearing this for the first time. But you laugh now at least. Zambia are champions!!! Katongo and his men are KINGS!!!

It was a penalty at 02:32

*why

. He also said the Zambians looked like orphans sitting in their dressing room. He was bullying Dennis Lota on live TV .Now that’s a typical ignorant African man Expecting other Africans to display his personal inferiority complex towards players who play in Europe and the Zambians shamed him (amokachi ) by not showing any fear or admiration.

rubbish......learn to give both sides the credit Nigeria was a better team on that day but Zambia played their hearts out.......viva Zambia

Nasty referee. They show their prejudice lily-livered and mar the principle of disciplined officiation. It was a grade A rough play by grabbing Emmanuel Amunike's jersey and forcibly bringing him down in the box.

None of the goals were shown in this video - *terrible highlights*

Poor highlights.

How the fuck did Nigeria not get pen? unbelievably awful refereeing

What a stupid highlight without the goals
