Nigeria v Argentina World Cup Preview
Despite finishing in fourth place during their World Cup qualifying campaign, Maradona and his talented squad will go into the World Cup with one goal only and that will be to raise that golden trophy on the 11th of July. It will help having World Player of the Year Lionel Messi as well as players like Diego Milito and Gonzalo Higuain to lead the charge. While bookmakers have not placed Argentina as the favourites of this tournament, no one in their right mind would bet against them to be the last team standing.
Despite being far removed from being Africa's lone World Cup challenger, the Super Eagles enter the tournament after a 8 year hiatus with something to prove. Coach Shaiby Amodu will hope young stars such as Obafemi Martins and Jon Mikel Obi as well as veterans such as Kanu will be able to make it past the group stage backed by playing near home soil. Nearly all of Nigeria's players are playing their football in Europe and the experience and training this will bring should prove to elevate them to provide a couple of surprises.
