Nigerian Football Legend, Jay Jay Okocha Listed As One Of World Cup’s 100 Footballers of All Time!
Nigeria football legend Jay Jay Okocha has been listed
among one of the world cup's 100 footballers of all
time! The list compiled by The Guardian Sports was
released today, and our very own Jay Jay is 78. The
Guardian Sports wrote on their website...
"World Cups 1994, 1998, 2002
Appearances 9 Goals 0
So good they named him twice, Jay-Jay Okocha was a
wonderfully original footballer, capable of taking the
breath away with the kind of improvisational skill that
was beyond the majority of players; at times, he
seemed to be inventing new tricks as he went along.
Despite his undoubted quality, he perhaps lacked a
crucial level of the consistency or decisiveness that
might have elevated him to the top, although he did
help Nigeria reach the second round twice. Jacob
