Nigeria BEATS Belgium In Olympic Soccer, Will Play For GOLD On Friday At Midnight On CNBC. Watch It.

I have just finished watching the Nigerian soccer team beat up on Belgium -- the final score of 4 to 1 does NOT tell the whole story. Belgium score the one goal on a free kick from the penalty box at the last minute, and Nigeria missed scoring several EASY goals, in each instance where the only Belgian defenders were the goal keeper and an empty net. The Nigerian strikers just missed sliding the ball into the net after the goal keeper had been beat. Oh, well that's how it goes.

Anyway, if you've got nothing going on on Friday at midnight, do yourself a big favor and make it a point to watch Nigeria play against as yet undetermined team -- most likely Argentina. You'd be thrilled, I promise.

BTW: Nigeria won soccer gold in last Atlanta Olympics, becoming the FIRST African nation to do so.
