I remember watching that game and it was a game Nigeria totally dominated.In the 2nd half we had like 23 corners and 0 for Togo.JJ Okocha played in that game,Duke Udi & Wilson Oruma also played that game.I think that game spelt the end of Emmanuel Babayaro because he was at fault for some of the goals.We scored first but they went ahead and scored 3 goals in the last 15 mins.The game was played in Nigeria.it definately was a shocking loss.People thought we were gonna flop so bad because when the Dream team played 3SC of Ibadan they outclassed our dream team.Dream team won that game 2-0 but great saves by Dosu helped him get into the team.

People thought that we were going to be dumped out of Atlanta 1996 because the loss happened shortly before he start of the competition.

6 or 7 years ago would make it it 1997 or 1998. We never played Togo. Check your Calendar, we did not. And you can take it to the bank. However, in 1996 the under 23 team that won the Olypics played their last friendly match before leaving for the US and they lost 2-3 to Togo. Bonfre Jo did not want them to play because several players including Amunike had a flu.

The Atlanta Olympics-bound U-23 team (with the full complement of West, Okechukwu, Babayaro, Kanu, Dosu, Babangida, Amokachi, etc) lost to Togo 1-3 in Lagos in the final warm-up friendly before the 1996 Olympics Games.

The super eagles (Green Eagles) also lost to Togo in the 80s , this was when Chief Onigbinde was first in charge , I believe the coach of Togo was at that time a fomer coach of Julius Burger of Lagos

From what i remember SE beat Togo 9-1 in Lagos and by a wide margin in Lome. This was during the 80s. I cant recall any SE team losing to Togo in the 80s and 90s. Apart from the friendly match which was not SE, it was our olympic team.

Togo beat us 5-2 in the early-mid 80s in the inaugural WAFU Nations Cup held in Ivory Coast I think. It was during one of those numerous 're-building' periods.

Gotti i remember watching that game and West ,Uche,Kanu,Dosu and Amokachie never played that game.Emmanuel Babayaro was the goal keeper in that game(vs Togo).Joseph Dosu never made the U-23 team until they played 3SC in a friendly before heading to Atlanta.Joseph Dosu's peformance against 3SC granted him the U-23 shirt as the 2nd choice goalie.

Togo beat Nigeria 5-2 in the mid-eighties
that game was a WAFU cup match i think
Wilfred Agbonavbare was in goal and that was the match that changed his name to Agbonivbasket

I hope you don't think Togo and Benin si the same country. More importantly I hope CCC does not think so.
