BREAKING: Why Super Eagles May Defeat Us – Iceland Coach

The coach for the Iceland national team, Heimler Hadgrimsson has expressed a tendency that the Nigeria’s Super Eagles may have an edge over them in the match later today.

Nigeria would be slugging it out with Iceland by 4pm as that may be their winning match if they will ever leave the group stage at the World Cup tournament.

Hadgrimsson said the predicted weather condition is suitable for the Nigerian team but not for his boys.

The outside air temperature in Volgograd is expected to rise above 30 degrees celsius.

“We expect victory, but the heat in Volgorad is for Nigeria to enjoy. Of course, it’s easier for them in such conditions than us. However, we’re taking the weather into cognisance as we make a plan for the game,” Hadgrimsson told journalists at their team base camp in Russia.

“The pitch of Volgograd is very good. It’s absolutely dry for obvious reasons, because it’s hot. As soon as it is rains, it will feel better. In general, the conditions are excellent for the game.

“The strength of Nigeria is the players’ good physicality. They are good athletes, and run very well. They also have good counter-attacks. If you look at their matches, you can see how they grew tactically. It’s a team learning fast and improving from training. Their players are playing at the highest level, and of great individual talents”, he also said.
