World football governing body, FIFA, has showered encomiums to the wonder goal scored by former Nigerian skipper Sunday Oliseh against Spain at the France 1998 World Cup.
Recalling Oliseh’s strike, FIFA wrote on their verified Twitter handle and accompanied it with a short video clip of the goal saying: “Sunday Oliseh scored an unforgettable sizzler of a goal for Nigeria Super Eagles On This Day to stun Spain at the 1998 World Cup”.
It will be recalled that Oliseh’s wonder strike against Spain secured Nigeria’s win as goalkeeper Andoni Zubizaretta was dumbfounded by the shot.
