John Obi Mikel in action against Iran A much touted Nigerian Super Eagles squad played to a 0 - 0 boring draw with an unheralded Iran Team that most pundits thought the Super Eagles should have easily beaten. The Super Eagles players were not very coordinated and were out of sync with each other. It was obvious some of the players did not put in the right effort to pressure the Iranians.

The Super Eagles have been touted by most fans and pundits as one of the two teams that should make it out of Group G, which is a relatively easy group whose only serious squad is Argentina, but with the way the Super Eagles played against the Iranians that now looks to be a tall order but again this is just the first Game.
The Nigerians will next play the Bosnia and Herzegovina team who played Argentina very hard and seem to be on a mission to bring attention to the plight of their country which was inundated with major flooding recently.
If Nigeria is to make it out of the group stages at this point they will have to beat the Bosnian Team outrightly and hope that either the Iranian or Bosnian team lose their next two games.
