Argentine legend slams Nigeria


Former Argentina midfielder Juan Sebastien Veron has said he is not happy with the Russia 2018 World Cup draw pitting Nigeria against his country in Group D.

Veron, who helped Argentina beat the Super Eagles 1-0 in their group match at the Korea/Japan 2002 World Cup, labelled Nigerian an “unpredictable” team.

Nigeria defeated Argentina 4-2 in a friendly game in Krasnodar, Russia, last month but Veron said the result would not affect the South American nation when both teams play at the World Cup.

“Nigeria is unpredictable. They always come to us in the group. African players are actually unstable and depend on what they have a day before and how they feel ahead of the game,” OwngoalNigeria.com quoted the former Manchester United midfielder as telling Dnevno.

“Croatia is not bad, it has players in strong clubs in Europe. They should not be underestimated. We are stronger than them, but we should be careful.”

Wabbish we'll beat em back to back

Nigeria need to stop giving away silly free kicks in the wrong area of the pitch and defend corners better. Then we will have a chance in this world cup

Nigeria played Argentina 4 times in the world cup. Argentina scored 7 goals while Nigeria sored 3. Nigeria's 3 goals are all from open play while Argentina has only scored one goal from open play against us. so that tells me if we defend set pieces better and prevent giving away free kicks in the wrong areas of the pitch then we will be ok.

Of Argentina's 6 goals from set pieces 3 are from avoidable free kicks while 3 are from corner kicks that could have been defended better. So when people say Africans are indiscipline this is what they mean.

In this 2018 world cup, I know the team is young but we must learn not to give away cheap goals. Teams will not outplay us by a great deal because of our genes and energy which is while black people lead in Athletics and boxing. But we must learn to be disciplined and organised if we want to go far.
