  7. Oliver KAHN not KHAN. And how come you mentioned three defenders yet you claim he said two. Maybe you could rephrase that.

  13. With all due respect, we thank God for where you are but I can assure you that money was not the motivation then.....You either wanted to be seen or wanted to play! Please oga don't let money be the motivation for your young child that may have a gift like you because the gift like you, was not just for your pocket but for your country...the world and then your pocket. It is wrong to define another human being future for just mere chicken change which you can give her. You cannot give her the gift of her name on a Nigerian Jersey....Let a child have her own LEGACY it is not for you to judge.
