SUPER EAGLES SOAR TO RUSSIA
Against a fantastic team from Zambia on Saturday evening, Super Eagles of Nigeria beat Zambia by a solitary goal to qualify for the World Cup in Russia in 2018.
Eagles become the first African team to book a place on the world stage next summer, with a game to spare. This is the sixth time Nigeria would be qualifying for a World Cup final.
In a group packed with quality African opposition – Cameroon, Algeria, Zambia – Nigeria emerged top with 13 points.
Congratulations to Coach Gerneot Rohr, his able assistants and technical crew.
Can Nigeria get it right this time by avoiding the politics that surround global tournaments?
Can NFF allow the Coaching crew and not interfere with player selection?
Would the FF agree monetary terms beforehand with the players to avoid the fiasco in Brazil in 2014?
Does this team have the talent to finally deliver for Africa and surprise the world?
What are your views?
What can stop Nigeria from delivering next year in Russia?
Do we have enough quality across defence, midfield and attack to make an impact?
Congratulations to Super Eagles and congratulations Nigeria, well deserved.
