Yobo Says Super Eagles Will Surprise The World

Super Eagles captain, Joseph Yobo says he is happy for Nigeria to be written off as World Cup underdogs.

The former Everton defender said it is a good thing that soccer fans are not tipping the African champions to do well in Brazil.

Nigeria face a tough time in Brazil after being drawn against Argentina, Bosnia and Iran in Group F.

Yobo however hinted that the world would be surprised by the Africans.

“I think when the tournament begins you will see the real Nigerian team.

“We are happy to see people talk about other nations rather than ourselves.”
