I would actually take that group. We can for sure beat Russia and Costa Rica. Spain would be a tough task.

Re: My gut instincts tell me our group will look like this
Spain, Germany, England and Belgium were the only European teams to qualify without losing any matches. Belgium and Spain drew one game each, England drew two, while Germany had a 100% win record.TheHitman47 wrote:I would actually take that group. We can for sure beat Russia and Costa Rica.

Along with Brazil, these are the in-form teams. It is just a shame that Spain is not seeded, they should be.
Re: My gut instincts tell me our group will look like this
Well Nigeria didn't lose a game either, at least so far. It is a shame that we are not seeded, a damn shame if you ask me...Ayo Akinfe wrote:Spain, Germany, England and Belgium were the only European teams to qualify without losing any matches.

Nigeria is ranked 44th on the world. We are among the lowest ranked teams in the tournament.

Re: My gut instincts tell me our group will look like this
We will only really have an uphill task if Spain us in our group as the second seed. Imagine getting Spain as the second seed and then Brazil or Germany as the first seed.

Nigeria is ranked 44th on the world. We are among the lowest ranked teams in the tournament.
We will be ahead of Japan, Panama, South Korea, Saudi Arabia, in the FIFA ranking.
Should Australia, Greece, Morocco, Burkina Faso, Ivory Coast, Cape Verde, Honduras, South Africa or New Zealand qualify, we will also be ahead of them.
Buhari, whose two terms thankfully ground to a constitutional halt in May. (One thing both democracies have going for them is that their leaders, however bad, have only two terms to swing the wrecking ball.) Under Buhari, growth per head also plunged to 0. An economic agenda drawn from the dusty pages of a 1970s protectionist handbook failed to do the trick. Despite Buhari’s promise to tame terrorism and criminality, violence flourished. Despite his reputation for probity, corruption swirled. FT

For me, Spain is the key to this World Cup. Whichever group they are will be the group of death!
