Beating Iran, Key For Eagles – Amadu

Musa Amadu has
identified Nigeria’s World Cup opener against Iran as a crucial game that will go a long way to deciding how well the Super Eagles will fare at the tournament.
In a chat with journalists earlier in the week, the NFF general-secretary stated that winning the opening game against Iran, who many see as the weakest team in Group F, would put Nigeria in pole position to advance to the next round.
He further identified Stephen Keshi’s tactical capability as an advantage that would count in favour of the African champions in the competition.
“If we go there and beat Iran, we will qualify and go as far as we can go. Let us work together and I believe we have a very competent technical crew. I don’t have any doubt about it,” Amadu said.
“Keshi has played at the highest level and has seen it all. I am quite confident that we have sufficient materials both from the technical crew and the players to do the nation proud.”
