![-]( "onyialex") onyialex at 22-08-2008 11:25 AM (15 years ago)  (m) Please,
I would like to make some correction to the write-up.
First, Nigeria played against Argentina in the finals of Atlanta '96 and not Brazil.
After the first round matches; Nigeria played against Mexico in one of the quarter-final mathes before engaging Brazil in one of the semi-final matches before trashing Argentina 2-1 in the final to lift the GOLD.
Secondly, this happened 12years ago and not 10years as the write-up suggests.
Please, whosoever that is posting anything should verify his or her story before posting because accuracy of information matters a lot.
Meanwhile, it would be highly appreciated for everyone to bear in mind that the game of football at this stage of a competition is always unpredictable. As a Nigeria, being patriotic, I would want Nigeria to repeat history but I know that "IT IS NEVER OVER UNTIL IT IS OVER" after 90minutes (120minutes - in case of extra-time) when the Referee blows the whistle.
Thank you. | Posted: at 22-08-2008 11:25 AM (15 years ago) | Newbie | |

Again, do not forget that in Atlanta '96 nobody expexted nigeria to beat Brazil having suffered a defeat in the hands of Brazil during the first round games of that year. So, I advise that you keep your views to yourself. Thank you and God Bless U. | Posted: at 22-08-2008 11:31 AM (15 years ago) | Newbie | |

Nigeria should stop celebrating a victory for a long time to the extent that it robs us of other victories we are suppose to win cheaply let us remember a victory won today becomes a history tommorow. | Posted: at 22-08-2008 11:45 AM (15 years ago) | Newbie | |

My little contribution is that we should all pray for our country because Argentina will also like to take home the gold Medal. We pray that our wish be granted to us through Jesus Christ Our Lord Amen! | Posted: at 22-08-2008 04:06 PM (15 years ago) | Newbie | |
