The Super Eagles take to the pitch against the Fiery Ones on Saturday to commence their 6th World Cup crusade
Having expressed on past events that his group are not prepared for the 2018 Fifa World Cup, Gernot Rohr is certain that Nigeria will influence it in time for their opening Group D to conflict against Croatia.
The Super Eagles head into the worldwide masterpiece in unsuitable form, with the record of their last three friendlies perusing two misfortunes and a draw.
Be that as it may, the German strategist pivots his expectation on the capacity of his group ‘to adapt to present circumstances together’, and is sure of the three-time African champions giving Zlatko Dalic’s men an intense test at the Kaliningrad Arena on Saturday.
“We will take it one match at a time. I love this group because we know how to rise to the occasion together. Nigeria will be ready for Croatia,” Rohr told NFF website.
Fittingly, Nigeria are the lowest ranked team in Group D, made up of Argentina [fifth], Saturday opposition Croatia [20th] and Iceland [22nd].
