As the Super Eagles prepare for tonight’s AFCON semi-final showdown against Morocco, there’s no better way to get in the mood than revisiting one of the most iconic eras in Nigerian football history.
This documentary from the NFF charts the powerful evolution of Nigerian football, from the trailblazing heroes of 1980 to the all-conquering AFCON 1994 champions. It’s a story of talent, belief, resilience and national pride – and a reminder of the standards Nigeria has always set on the continental stage.
This episode explores how a fearless group of young players grew into Africa’s most feared team, laying the foundations for the modern Super Eagles and inspiring generations that followed. As Nigeria chase another AFCON crown tonight in Rabat, the echoes of that Golden Generation still feel very close.
Sit back, press play, and let this documentary set the tone before kickoff.
