Nigeria: "The Super Eagles are ready," announced coach

"First of all, I feel very lucky to be here and be part of this World Cup, first held in Africa," said Lagerbäk to FIFA.com, speaking of the selection of Nigeria and its possibilities for the World Cup in South Africa.

"We are excited about what we hope is an excellent event. These weeks have been wonderful for me. The attitude of the players has been fantastic, and are encouraged. We have prepared thoroughly," added the coach of the African team.

Finally, Lagerbäk was concerned with the difficult group that has touched them, but has confidence in his players and is optimistic: "We have had a very difficult group, rivals are of high quality, and I know everyone wants win. But the Super Eagles are ready to be measured at the global elite. We know that much is expected of us, especially our fans. If we employ a hundred percent, we can beat any team. But now, I'm very happy " .
