No freebies in this group.
Morocco and Iran are not anything close to the level of the Europeans. Not even remotely
Morocco is better than you give them credit.

But I am not worried. :D
Modric is playing terrible this season. If he carries this form to the World Cup Nigeria should be safe.

We are in an extremely tough group.

It will be tough beating Argentina again - they will be very well prepared for us.
Croatia is an extremely good team, with Luka Modric (Real Madrid), Ivan Rakatic (Barcelona) and Ivan Perecic (Inter Milan) in the middle. Nikola Kalinic (AC Milan) and Mario Madzukic (Juventus) up front. Superb players, all.
Iceland is a very tough team also, as evidenced by their performance in this past Euros.

Nigeria is in for a very rough ride!

I give them a lot of credit, they're organized. Just that Spain and Portugal are another level ceteris paribus.

My brother I tire.. This is like 4th or 5th group meeting. Starting to lose count.. :oops: :oops: :oops:
Interestingly, I feel like Argentina might be game SE has the best chance of winning just based on how they play (more open soccer). Iceland will be more of a cagey affair.
Croatia - somewhere in between Argies & Iceland.

5th in 6 world cups.

That first game will be incredibly crucial. Lose it and it's curtains.

Nigeria qualified unbeaten out of a group with 3 recent African champions, then beats Argentina in a friendly recently....everyone in this group is in for a rough ride...If I wasnt Nigerian, I would not want to meet this team in my group

We can expect the Argies to use the same formula against us that has always worked in the past. Go and re-watch our previous encounters.
Here is hoping we address our past weaknesses for a different outcome this time around.

You be O.G. for here, now! You supposed to know that Croatia na serious balling nation. Iceland sef can turn out to be Denmark. They are physically bigger than our boys nd can damage us with headers. Our defense and keeper need to bring their A game at defending high balls. Our group na Group of Death o.
