Career

society

As a youth player, Ogungbure was with the clubs FC Asaco Cotonou, NEAP Lagos and Nigerdock Lagos.

He gained his first experience in the senior sector with the second team of 1. FC Nürnberg , before joining the professional squad in the second division in the 2000/01 season . Ogungbure made his first professional appearance on matchday 12 of the season when he came on for Armin Störzenhofecker in the 83rd minute of the game against VfL Osnabrück . Overall, Ogungbure played nine second division games in the season. At the end of the season he went to the club in the Bundesliga on.

After only three appearances in the first half of the 2001/02 season , he decided to move to the second division SSV Reutlingen 05 during the winter break . In the summer of 2003 and relegation with the SSV, he moved to the first division relegated Energie Cottbus . After two seasons and the fast descent had he Cottbus leave and joined by lack of offers from the higher leagues the Oberliga side FC Sachsen Leipzig on.

In the 2007/08 season he played again for a second division, this time for Kickers Offenbach . However, his contract was not extended after relegation and he received no further offers. Therefore he was without a club.

In the summer of 2010 he played for six months for the Hessian regional division SG Auheim from the Main-Kinzig district .

In January 2011, he accepted an offer from the Vietnamese V.League 1 club XM The Vissai Ninh Binh .

National team

Ogungbure has already played two internationals for Nigeria .

"The Ogungbure Case"

Ogungbure caused a nationwide sensation when he showed the opposing fans the Hitler salute during the league game against Halleschen FC . He reacted to the racist insults against himself by the Halle fans, which he had to endure throughout the game (not to show sympathy with the neo-Nazis , but as an attempt to publicly identify them as such). The Halle an der Saale public prosecutor's office then officially filed a criminal complaint against Ogungbure for using a mark of an unconstitutional organization, but discontinued the proceedings a little later. Since this campaign, Ogungbure has received nationwide expressions of sympathy, but had to endure racist abuse at the league games, for example in the championship game of the 2006/2007 league season when Sachsen Leipzig again played against Halleschen FC, or in April 2007 as Energie Cottbus II played in the central stadium and their fans held up posters with racist abuse.

Another incident occurred on November 10, 2006 on the sidelines of the league game of FC Sachsen Leipzig at VFC Plauen , which the Plauen team won 1-0. After the final whistle, Adebowale Ogungbure physically attacked his Ukrainian opponent Andrij Zapyschnyi with a punch in the face. The attack is said to have been triggered by Zapychnyi's racist abuse against Ogungbure. Ogungbure was then suspended for four games. The ban was below the minimum penalty of six games because the sports court found it proven that Ogungbure had previously been racially insulted several times. Zapyschnyi had to pay a fine of 300 euros.
