I can see Okala and Dominic Ezeani

1973 ke- in a country where we do not keep records - Thank God for Nigeria hosting Afcon in 1980- otherwise the case of Odegbami CCC Muda Felix and co would have been like above - see picture and only able to name 1 or 2.

anyone that names more than 6 will be doing so merely from memory and guess work.

kid born 10 years will name the England 1966 winning team by heart- first 11

I could p[ossibly name more than half of them but the photo that I see is only from left to Okala and that is it. Can you reduce the size so that we can see most of them?

I see Ewerem Oji,
Albert Okorojo
Segun Alakija
Uwem Albert
Sam Amafori
David Okotie
Samuel Nbanaga
Danladi Alli
Edward Ifikoje
Baba ulo Musa
&
Sikiru Ariyo

Ok guys. I made up the names

I am going to refrain because I have seen this photo and the names on WhatsApp, otherwise it's the 3 Rangers greats that I recognize (Okala, Ezeani and Achebe).

Wasnt Peter Anieke part of the 1973 Team?
Have to be honest dont recognise most of them either

Did they use actual soccer boots back then? What about shin guards?

Shin guard was not compulsory until around 89. At least in Nigerian, it was in 1990 I started using shin guards because it became compulsory. Even the FISU games I attended in 87 I played without shin guards..... It was the advent of aids that made it compulsory

As for boots, shattap dia.... They have been using boots since the 60s

I remember CCC used to be without shin guards, and his socks will be down to his ankles. Strong Man!
