How To Lose A Match in 99 Goals

Fireballs, lion heads, and voodoo, these were the special ingredients chosen to make the greatest loss in our sporting history… allegedly. Once upon a time, a football match between India and Nigeria ended in a 99 - 0 loss for the Nigerian Green Eagles. On this episode, host Deji Osikoya takes us through a play-by-play of the mythical match. Joined by third generation Indian-Nigerian Hamisha Daryani Ahuja, director and producer of acclaimed cross-cultural Netflix features, ‘Namaste Wahala’ and ‘Postcards’, the two dig into how colonialism, commerce, and cinema have shaped our national friendship.
