Super Eagles’ head coach Gernot Rohr and captain Mikel Obi say the group is fit for delivering on its promise on Saturday against Vatreni of Croatia. The Nigerian side will confront Croatia at the Kaliningrad Stadium in their opening Group D game at the FIFA World Cup, expecting to win for a splendid start. This will be against the backdrop of disappointing opening match losses by fellow African sides Egypt and Morocco on Friday.
Rohr, who earlier in the day had addressed the media before the team’s training session, said he was sure that his team was in shape to get a good result.
“We know the importance of getting a good result. It is important that we set out well, and we have been doing our best to be in good condition, just like I said earlier today.
“What we need to worry about is how to get our tactics right, and I am confident that we have done all that is necessary in this regard,” he added.
