The Super Eagles which is the National Team of Nigeria has played but a few friendly matches in preparation for the world cup which starts on the 14th of June. They'll be battling it out with Croatia two days later, their first match.
They played 4 matches already this year and won 1 against Poland, drawn 1 against DR Congo and lost 2 against Serbia and England, just one more game to play against Croatia.
We all know how good you are is determined by the kind of teams you're playing against, we'll all things being equal. This Nigeria team seems to be playing fine but couldn't shoot down their opponents.
I still remember in preparation for the world cup few years back, Nigeria lost almost all their friendly matches and almost got to the second round, I doubt it's the same scenario.
Well, let's just keep our fingers crossed, but for me, I don't see them past the group stage where the only minnow is Iceland. I'm not a prophet of doom, just expressing my fears anyways.
Never say never in football, there's no winner until the 90 minutes, so anything can happen
Well, I'm wishing my darling Super Eagles, a wonderful journey in FIFA WORLD CUP RUSSIA.
