After holding out their illustrious opponents to a 0-0 first half, the Super Eagles’ defence was eventually breached as they went on to lose 1-0. Germany’s goal was scored by Andreas Moller in the 58th minute.

From 1994 to 1998, the Nigeria squadron demonstrated confidence, spirit, and technical skills that earned respect not only for Nigeria but all black nations worldwide.
I watched the match back then. Memories
That pass from Kanu to finidi at 5.10 was insane. Ajax telepathic connection
Simply pure class
He didn't make that pass to Finidi
@@optimusprime5794 he made it to space abi?
Sad that injuries to Ike Shorunmu and Oliver Kahn kept them out of the tournament. They were very good in this match. We ended up taking Peter Rufai and Germany took Andreas Kopke.
On Wednesday 22 April 1998, Nigeria and Germany played together in a friendly match. The Nigerian football goalie was Ike Shorunmu who kept a clean sheet in the first half then in the second half at 46 minutes, he was substituted, and replaced by Nigeria's second-choice (William Okpara) only for him (Okpara) to concede a goal from the Peter Moller at 58 minutes. When Moller scored, Okpara (Nigeria) touched the ball a bit with his (Okpara's) hand, but to no avail, the ball still entered the net, and that's how it became a 1-0 victory for Germany.
Sounds like the goal is Okpara's fault, which it is not.
@@squaner1 When Nigeria conceded a 1-0 victory from Germany, it wasn't Okpara's fault. Peter Moller scored the goal at a high speed, so that was why William Okpara (Nigeria) conceded the goal, though he touched the ball a bit, and that was how it became a 1-0 victory for Germany.
How d f you come up with the name Peter? His name is Andreas Moller
@@NedNero1759I don't know for the guy😂😂, his name is Andrew muller not peter muller
Icke Häßler!
Was 7 years Old, and a big football and arsenal fan,when I saw this game live on nta
كنت صغيره في تلك مباراة
I remember watching this match like yesterday. Truth be told we were outplayed by the German team let's be honest here. We played without a recognized striker in that friendly match too. Okocha was doing an exhibition show in that match. The truth is that all the friendly we played we lost in all of them by a lone goal. We lost to England to a lone goal and lost to the USA after the world cup 94 by a lone goal too.
The difference with that team & now is that we don't have that kinda talent in the current team now. Victor Oshimen wasn't used properly in the last AFCON by our incompetent coach that rode his luck to the finals. We didn't have a midfield either which was shocking. Used Alex Owobi as a defensive midfielder that didn't suit his style or strength either.
On November 16 1994, Nigeria 🇳🇬 lost to England 🏴 1-0 with a goal header from David Platt (England) The English national football team didn't qualify for that year's world cup finals in America. On April 22 1998, Nigeria 🇳🇬 lost to Germany 🇩🇪 1-0. On May 29 1998, Nigeria lost to Yugoslavia 3-0 and within a week Nigeria lost to the Netherlands 5-1 (June 5 1998)
Such a shame that Shorunmu got injured just before the tournament. Always thought Rufai cost us iń the tournament
Yes Shorunmu got injured and broke his arm before the tournament, but it wasn't at the national football team, that he broke his arm. It was while he was playing for his club that he broke his arm.
I was about to ask why Shorunmu didn't play in the World Cup
@@squaner1 Ike Shorunmu didn't play in France 98, because he'd broken his arm.
Rufai Had a Stinker in France 98 Costs Us The Game Against Denmark
@@princeobi-ne1ht What was the sticker?
Once we had a team,
Quality players in all departments.
See quality everywhere
Days of glory even with losses
That is football for you.
And look at the caliber of keepers we had... Ike shorunmu started and Ndubuisi Egbo came in and kept a clean slate!
There was also Peter side Idah and Abiodun Baruwa by the sides.
There was no Ndubuisi Egbo in that game, it was Willy Okpara who back then was based in SA
@@kennethuroh696 In this friendly match between Nigeria and Germany 🇩🇪 which took place on April 22 1998, Nigeria 🇳🇬lost to Germany 1-0. First, the Nigerian football goalie was Ike Shorunmu. He kept a clean sheet in the first half then in, the second half at 46 minutes, it was William Okpara who was Nigeria's second-choice that went to the goal-post. About twelve minutes later, Germany received a goal from Peter Moller at 58 minutes. When Moller (Germany) scored the goal, William Okpara (Nigeria) touched the ball a bit with his (Okpara's) hand, but the ball still went into the net, and it became a 1-0 victory for Germany 🇩🇪.
When you watch this match you'll pity the current Super Eagles because we don't have a coach.
It's not about this... We lack good players
You are watching only highlight, some us that were old enough to understand football complained about this performance, Germany were just wasteful on the day.
We don't have a coach and we don't have these kind of players anymore.
We have players who can make us just like the good old days but we need coach that has eyes & brain to put them together
This "failed" German team in WC and Euro is even more impressive than German team 2023.
Na wa o....lol! How we went from these Super Eagles to the current Subpar Eagles....SMH
😂🤷🏾♂️🇳🇬🙄🇳🇬🤦🏾♂️🤣
I agree with you on that one. What happened to Nigeria like in every aspect and sector of life. At one point the Naira was stronger than the dollar. 2 to 1.
Our current super eagles with the exception of Osimhen, don't have the passion like their predecessors.. These men gave it their all whenever they are on Green White Green
Nigeria does not have a team for now until they change their mindset of oversea born and include home base
@@usmanjohn3267 Exactly
I beg To Disagree Nigeria Has a Team, But Coach is letting us Down
@@princeobi-ne1ht Thank God he has resigned today because he knows he wouldn't have last. So many coaches are interested in super eagles because we have players like you said
Please can you upload the full match? Or where can I watch the full match? Thanks
I can't upload the full match, sorry. I bought the DVD years ago but there are sites that still deal in old matches like this. You can check these:

@@ikponmwosaosaghae1861 because it's like putting up someone else's wares on the internet for free. I do see how my initial language could've prompted the question though.
@@kayvaldo I see.
The Nigerian football team btw 1990 and 1998 are the greatest in the history of our football. Though my hopes rose when Mikel Obi and Ogbuke Sunday came around. I stopped watching Nigerian football matches after that.
Nigeria 🇳🇬 did not play in Italia 90. If you're talking about the best times in the national football team of the country then, you should say between 1994 and 2002.
When it was real football
What’s the abbreviation for the teams
I'm not sure what you mean but @1:06 the abbreviations are visible as GER & NGR
if now germany plays any african team, we can't tell who is who
🤣
Wo haben die gespielt ? In Bremen?
In Köln
🎉
I don't remember this game because NFA at that time, were too useless to show it.
It was show on national TV, NTA 2,10 back then, I was only 10year, but football was more of a culture around me back den, the passion was strong
We also played Holland for friendly, we lost 1.0,I remember those games before world Cup,

Schrecklich, so breit. Das ist völlig verzerrt.
You can't catch super Eagles on a counter neither can you against a mouriho team.
If your game plan is counter attack, then you lost

Since 2002, the Nigerian football team have been going down.
