The Legacy

Adegboye Onigbinde took charge of Nigeria for the 2002 World Cup after the departure of Shaibu Amodu. Expectations were high, yet the team exited in the group stage after failing to register a win against Argentina, Sweden, or England. Nike provided the gear for a squad that included Jay-Jay Okocha, Nwankwo Kanu, Taribo West, and Celestine Babayaro. Despite the attacking talent available, the side struggled to find rhythm in a difficult group. This home shirt captures the final tournament appearance for several members of that experienced group of international players.
