OK, so Nigeria hasn’t played that well in recent years, but we are at the World Cup. We have a great chance to show the world what we can do. We amazed everybody in 1994 in the USA. We did the same in 1998 in France when we beat Spain 3-2. Everyone thought we could win that World Cup. The same will happen this time too. We are the Super Eagles and we have super players. So, OK, we don’t have a Lionel Messi, but we aren’t afraid of Argentina. We’ll be the underdogs in that game. No one thinks we can win, except us. You have to remember this World Cup is in Africa. It is our duty to do well and make all Africans proud of us. I can’t wait to see the players run out on the pitch and hear my national anthem. The roar of the African crowd will give us energy to win. |
