2014 World Cup: Bosnia coach also writes off Super Eagles

Now what exactly is happening? Are we that bad? No we are not bad. Bosnia coach, Safet Susic just like Argentina’s Alejandro Sabella has asked Nigeria and Iran, to forget qualifying for the second round of the 2014 World Cup which kicks off on June 12 in Brazil. He stated that Argentina and Bosnia-Hezergovina will pick the two Group F tickets after the first round matches.
He wrote on a sports website,
“We will continue attacking like we always do, I think our chances are very realistic, because at this moment, both Nigeria and Iran are not better teams than us. I fully expect that we pass into the second round. It would be unfair to the game and above all to the fans if we were to constrain such talents. After all, we are playing to score more goals than our opponents and so far it has paid off. Argentina is by far the best team in our group and they should finish first. Our target is to join them in the next round.”
Nigeria can shock the world. Yes we can and will!!!
