Nowadays, it seems that the Nigerian team hardly wins any medals again on the world stage and especially at the Olympics but this was quite different from the way our team performed at the Paralympics. Well, I was just recalling the best peformance Nigeria has had with our football team till date and this was at the Atlanta Olympics of 1996. It was the best Super Eagles team we've had till date and they have their golds to show for it.
History writes that this was the first African football team to win gold and we need to remember what they did.The Super Eagles of 1996 did a wonderful job by beating favourites like Brazil and Argentina to win gold in the USA Male Olympics football competition. It was really exciting in those days and since then, we've only been dreaming of when next our national team would achieve such a feat.
