No. 19 Nigeria

FIFA Ranking- 20

Group B

The Super Eagles did not lose during qualifying in Africa, but still did not turn too many heads with ill timed draws, and listless performances. They bring a team with some big names notably John Obi Mikel, who will try and be like Obi Wan and guide his team through the group stage. The eagles also have some attacking options with one of the most celebrated African soccer players in Nwankwo Kanu and also Obafemi Martins. They have a solid starting 11 and an above average bench, which could be key for them if they are to advance out of their group. It all depends which team shows up, the Super Eagles or as they are sometimes know the Super Chickens only time will tell.
