“There is nothing like pressure, you must have watched the attitude of the players, they have been very free and lively, the coaches and officials are very free with themselves, so I think considering the
cooperation, the team should get a good result against China and the other teams in our group.”
While tipping the team to surpass their previous record at the World Cup, the Flamingoes coach assured that the team will bring smiles to the faces of Nigerians.
We can assure Nigerians that we are prepared, the team spirit is high and are ready for the World Cup; we are ready to play as the team’s spirit is good. The only thing we ask for is goodluck to succeed in Costa Rica.”
Nigeria’s other group opponents are Mexico and Colombia.
