Nigeria’s ex-international, Joseph Yobo, has said that he believes the current squad of the Super Eagles will excel in the forthcoming FIFA World Cup in Russia.
Yobo told the News Agency of Nigeria in an interview in Lagos on Thursday that the team should not be intimidated by others in their group — Croatia, Argentina, and Iceland.
He spoke with NAN on the sidelines of a media parley organised by Multichoice Nigeria to unfold its plans to bring the world soccer fiesta to the homes of Nigerians.
The former Super Eagles Captain commended the effort of the Coach, Gernot Rohr, in bringing together gifted players to fight for jerseys ahead of the Mundial.
Yobo said he was of the opinion that the challenge in the goalkeeping aspect would be overcome and the team would do the nation proud in Russia.
He commended DStv for yet again bringing their quality to bear as they prepare to showcase the greatest football fiesta to Nigerians.
“It feels good to see that they want everybody to be a part of the football show by bringing it to their homes.
“The reduced tariffs would afford their customers to enjoy and be a part of history, and I believe the current squad of the Super Eagles would excel in Russia,” Yobo said.
