Celestine Babayaro thrilled football fans with his unique defensive style of play, he made playing s an opposing attacker so hard. the way he links up with the midfield and joing the attack line was always a delight to watch. at the Atlanta '96 olympics, Cele showed what he was made of by scoring a world class goal against argentina, recall the match comentator describing the goal as a"textbook header". watch the video again here courtesy of youtube.
It was reported sometime again ago that celestine had filed for bankruptcy and ever since he has maintained a low profile even after trying to resurrect his career with the MLS side LA Galaxy, the time also had David beckham in their fold at that same time. Celestine popularised the backflip mode of celebration and this endeared him to all his fans. Such a great talent.
