| Beating Nigeria is never easy, but getting results in two matches straight is one of the toughest assignments in world football. But the debutants from Angola managed to do just that, getting a win and a draw against the African giants and going through to the world cup based on that head-to-head result. All this despite coming close to bowing out, only progressing past Chad on away goals in the first round. Their inspirational captain "Akwa" lead from the front, scoring five times during their world cup campaign to lead their goal scoring record. |
