Highly respected CAF/FIFA Instructor, Adegboye Onigbinde has stated that a prepared Super Eagles have all it takes to slug it out with their 2014 FIFA World Cup Group F rivals Argentina, Iran and Bosnia Herzegovina and qualify for the next round.
FIFA held the draws for next year's World Cup on Friday night in Brazil and one of the highlights of the draws was pitching Nigeria's senior national team against that of the South American giants and twice winners of the World Cup, Argentina, Asian powerhouse Iran and European debutants Bosnia.
Onigbinde who led the Eagles at the Japan/Korea 2002 World Cup finals where they played against Argentina, England and Sweden told Goal that Nigeria should look beyond qualifying for the second round.
Onigbinde told Goal:
"There is no short cut to success. I don't believe in saying that a particular country is stronger or another is weaker. With adequate preparation the Eagles can face any country,”
