Pray for Morocco

Morocco might turn out to be one of the surprises of Russia 2018. I think African teams will do well.

Nigeria vs argentina world cup

Simple Give Nigeria 2 goals handicap It always works

Honestly, group D will be difficult. Iceland looks like an easy prey but they are not, if you have been following their football.

Argentina and Croatia are certainly ,"baba".

teebankz10:
you know how old he is??what if he was born in 2002

Hhahaha true talk Boy started from where him mama land am for this world

Let's not underrate any team. Argentina shouldn't be the team we should be worried about since we've played against them multiple times. Iceland and Crotia should be the focus so that we don't go and lose points easily.

Fabulouski:
Iran no need to play sef. They have failed already

Knw Tok am ooo

iceland are the underdogs. first world cup for them and u know the kind passion them go take play...

Ok , d analysis goes does


Argentina 4. Nigeria 0


Croatia 1. Nigeria 1

Iceland 1. Nigeria 10


I pray that Croatia lost against Argentina and draw against Iceland. OK we shall qualify by 4 point

Rikidony:

We played Argentina in the 1994 world cup.

Ramos go do CR7 dat tin again, I no fit laff, I would hv preferred Nig lost d friendly match against Argentina, dis time around, dey will wanna win by all means n trust me, dat Messi freekick dat almost killed Eyeama will certainly kill whoeva stands in d post dis tym around.

Argentina and Nigeria will qualify from the group.

Maybe na you go dey there this time around.

WarriAproko:
hoping nigeria and calculator ways of qualifying. chest beaters..

grp D is tough but eagles have the capacity to beat arg Croatia Iceland. I can only hope. There is no chest beating in hope.

A minute silence for Morocco pls.

If we win our 1st match then we would scale through the 1st round.

no shaking. that was how people said that nigeria will not make it through . I believe that nigeria will qualify from the group and go onto the semis as long as no injuries hit the squad. even the best of teams have their bad day eg Argentina.

I saw a prediction award of correct prediction in nigeria group, n i predicted a sure argentina team joinin d super eagles n funny enof i include d crotian n iceland but guess what i didnt type my prediction bc itz a startime promo, the people starts commenting there poor network n diz n dat. But i dont nid a startime decoder. Nice one super eagles. But guess what we r going to draw wt them, when nxt we play

WarriAproko:

Lol. Since they always defeat us by just 1 goal margin.

At first glance, two-time World Cup winners Argentina look to have been given a fairly friendly draw. In truth, however, there is quality throughout this group. Croatia may have needed to come through the European playoffs, but they were one of the best sides at Euro 2016. Nigeria have a handful of excellent attacking players and sailed through a tricky qualifying group. And Iceland, as we saw at Euro 2016, can shock anyone. If Argentina aren’t at their best, this could be a fascinating mess.
Argentina
It took for Lionel Messi to score three goals in the last qualifying match for Argentina to make it to the World Cup but now that they’re in the tournament, it’s hard not to look at them as one of the favorites. It’s confounding that a team with so many world class players finds a way to consistently struggle, even with Jorge Sampaoli who was supposed to finally balance the team but could lead the team to only one win out of four games.
But this is still a team with Messi, Mauro Icardi, Sergio Aguero, Angel di Maria, Ever Banega, Javier Pastore, Angel Correa and Gonzalo Higuain, just not in the Final.
It’s do or die for this crop of Argentina players, and anything less than a win will be one more disappointment to add to a history of failures. Losing in three straight tournament Finals in the waning minutes and extra time has to have some lasting psychological effect on the players, but they will have to overcome that to fulfill the potential that everyone knows they have.
Key player: Lionel Messi
The best player of our generation and arguably the best player to ever play the game, and this will probably be his last chance to win the World Cup. It has to be his best performance. Even though Argentina is full of great players, they are entirely dependent on his ability. Whatever success they will have will have to come by his left foot.
Iceland
Before now, Iceland have never made the World Cup. They’re the smallest country ever to qualify for it. They only even made their first European Championship tournament in 2016 and made it all the way to the quarterfinals before going out. They’re a fun team that plays fascinating football, and they proved with a dominating qualifying run in a tricky group that their 2016 run was no fluke. Now they’re ready to take an even bigger step forward as a national team.
Iceland play a tactical brand of football, but where that kind of phrase is usually associated with dire, overly defensive game plans, Iceland’s approach is anything but. They run well-coordinated patterns of movement for both their passing attack and defensive setups that often seem to leave opponents mystified, and they do it with incredible consistency.
They’re not the most outright talented team in the World Cup by a long ways, but they’ve got a lot of underrated players who play way above their level as a unit, and that’s always a good recipe for a surprise result or three in a big tournament.
Key player: Gylfi Sigurðsson
Sigurðsson hasn’t enjoyed the best of seasons with Everton so far — no Everton players have, to be honest — but his lethal skill on set pieces and ability to create magic from open play still leaves him as the most crucial part of Iceland’s squad. He’s their best playmaker by far and the top goalscorer in the squad, and no matter what they do to approach a given match, he’s going to be at the heart of it.
Croatia
In a world where football results were awarded for style, Croatia might just be going into the 2018 World Cup as the reigning European champions. Their 2-1 victory over Spain at Euro 2016 was the performance of the tournament and raised the very real possibility that this generation of players might go further than the great generation of the mid-’90s. Then they ran into Portugal and got smothered.
Qualification for Russia started well, then nosedived. Coach Ante Čačić was sacked following losses to Iceland and Turkey and a draw with Finland, and Zlatko Dalić took over with just one game left, a winner-takes-the-playoffs game against Ukraine. They won that then dispatched Greece to secure their place, though they made short work of Greece. But off-field matters have rather soured the achievement: Thanks to a complex and still-emerging mess of corruption allegations involving players and administrators, support for the side is at a low ebb.
Key player: Luka Modric.
Now 32, this will perhaps be our last chance to enjoy Luka Modric at a major international tournament. Let's hope it goes well, then, because in form he's one of the most delightful midfielders going — a creative presence who makes everybody around him better and occasionally scores beautiful goals for himself, too.
Nigeria
African qualifying had a clear group of death, and Nigeria was in it. Any of their opponents — Zambia, Cameroon or Algeria — would have had a good chance to get out of any other group. But the Super Eagles coasted past all of them, going undefeated and finishing six points clear. At the moment, Nigeria appears to be the clear class of Africa and the continent’s best hope at making a deep run.
John Obi Mikel continues to be the veteran leader of this team, but the rest of the squad has been made over considerably in recent years, and most of the starters in Russia will be 25 or younger. Alex Iwobi and Kelechi Iheanacho have emerged as star players in the attack, joining up with the top performers from the generation slightly older, Ahmed Musa and Victor Moses.
Key player: Alex Iwobi
Mikel and Moses might be the leaders, but Iwobi will be the difference maker. He’s the most creative player in the side and will need to be at his best for Nigeria to make a deep run.

Argentina is being overrated. They struggled to qualify. They are not as fantastic as many of us think, they have their weakness too and it was exposed during the friendly match with Nigeria. It is an open group, no team is a push over. As a matter of fact, Argentina cannot earn 9 points in that group because they are beatable. There is going to be a lot of draws in that group and most likely the qualifier to the next stage may be decided through goal difference.

Nigeria can come out from the group. Nigeria can beat Croatia and Iceland and even beat Argentina. Argentina is not that good without Messi.

Christane:
why argentina lyk nigeria lyk dz na ...why dem no go let us rest ...i hope for d match messi no go play sha.
