One of the funniest things about the 1993 Under 17 World Cup for me was the commentator in Nigeria's first game. The NTA couldn't hook up with their team in Japan, so they linked up with the Ghanaian TV's crew for that first game (only the first game). The GTV commentator could not believe that the Nigerian fans were singing, "All we are saying, give us more goals" when Nigeria was leading by 6 goals to nil. We eventually beat Canada by 8 goals to nil and he was laughing all through.


Karibe Pascal Ojigwe also played for Nigeria at the 2002 African Nations Cup in Mali.

Yes, that's his middle name and some European commentators used it when they couldn't pronounce his first name.
