If you are a big SU fan, you have been learning about African nations for some time now. Here is a quick review:

Chinonso Obokoh

Nigeria

Baye Moussa Keita

Senegal

Kueth Duany

Sudan

Did I miss anyone?

This clip has particular significance to SU fans now...don't you think?

Might as well open up the U.N.

Here is the Belgian Flag for Ongenaet

The Lithuanian flag for Janulis

The Lebanese flag for Seikaly

And here is one of our favorites for a few guys.

There has been a (seemingly) large influx of African born soccer players in the CNY area.

Don't forget Brazil for Melo, Bosnia for Elvir Ovcina, Austro-Hungary for Joe Schwarzer, Russia for John Barsha and Mars for Billy Celuck.

Yes his parents are Nigerian, but he was born in the USA.

Mars for Billy Celuck.

I've been trying to block out Fab Melo, but in honor of Carmelo and his birthplace:

This is a fun thread! I am glad my client didn't show up so I can read it. It was hilarious when BMK came running out of the tunnel on Friday night to "Circle of Life" from the Lion King and his country's flag waving about. Loved it.
