TUNISIA 94: Super Eagles AFCON Championship Run

Unarguably the best Eagles squad in the nation’s footballing history. The Clemens Westerhoff-tutored side beat Zambia 2-1 to clinch the AFCON title — this was after their first triumph in 1980. . In April 1994, the Super Eagles of Nigeria was ranked 5th in the FIFA world ranking, making Nigeria became the only African team to ever reach that level in the FIFA Ranking. Two months later, the legendary ‘94 squad also made Nigeria proud in the World Cup; beating the likes of Bulgaria, and Greece but lose out to Argentina and eventually eliminated by Italy in the Round of 16.
