WATCH: "This is Naija: A Nigerian Football Story” Nike 2018 World Cup Film

Nike yesterday released a short documentary about the country Nigeria and the Nigerian national football team. Dubbed “This is Naija: A Nigerian Football Story”, the Nike Nigeria 2018 World Cup film explores Nigeria’s unbridled, optimistic and confident approach to football, and to life, that sets it apart.

This is Naija: A Nigerian Football Story

From the streets, to the clubs, to the markets, to the pitch, from the energy and chaos of Lagos to the wooded savannas of Abeokuta, football is not only the rhythm, but the pulse of Nigerian culture. The film features conversations with Segun Odegbami, a star of the 1980 Nigerian Africa Cup team, and with current Super Eagle players like Odion Ighalo and Wilfred Ndidi, and taps into the unbreakable confidence of a team, and a country, ready to rule football for years to come.

The Nigeria Nike 2018 World Cup documentary has been directed by Andrew Dosunmu, a Nigerian photographer and filmmaker, known for his work in documentaries, music videos and feature films. Notably in 2006 he created the documentary “The African Game,” a compelling on-the-ground depiction of Africa’s passion for football and the emerging players from a continent in love with the game. He is also a long-time fan of the Super Eagles.
