Most of us must have heard of Nigeria and India match that ended 99-1, though the story still remains a topic of debate, others said is just a fallacy. The match between Nigeria and India was a match to be reckoned with. The stories told by elders was that, at the time of play Nigerians played all through the first half without conceding a goal. During the time of play, Nigerians were not able to kick the ball due to the fact that the ball kept turning into a lion which hindered most of the players from performing excellently, though it was a mystery. The Indian's scored all through the first half, until a decision was made that if Nigerians were able to score a goal, then they would become victorious.
The super eagles played so hard, until the second half, when Samuel Okwaraji eventually scored a winning goal and then lost his life during the process. The match finally ended 99-1. Later on, it was gathered that the Indians were using magical means to soar high.
The event got people talking and it was reported that the Indians were banned from participating in FIFA matches
