Nigeria were plainly disappointing in World Cup play. Now their president has stepped in to stop all play for the next two years. Ballsy move!
Goodluck Jonathan, the apparently ill-named president of Nigeria, has suspended his country’s national soccer team from international competition for two years after its poor performance in the World Cup in June.
They haven’t won a World Cup match since 1998, and President Jonathan has had enough. Investigations will be held!
This one is for all the marbles. If Korea win, they go through. If Argentina win, and Korea tie, Korea go through. We’re pro Korea here (that’s South Korea, obviously) — be the Reds! There are a couple other situations where Korea can advance to the knockout stages, but it’s all academic. They need to win against the Super Turkeys…I mean Eagles.
In the other match, Argentina promise to turn on the style, and probably rest some of their players against a Greek side that hasn’t looked strong enough to move beyond the group, let alone beat what may very well be the tournament’s eventual winners.
All the fun after the bump!
