Russia 2018: Nigeria's Qualification To The Next Round In The Hands Of Croatia by HisSexcellency(m): 8:00am On Jun 24, 2018
After a 2:0 lose to Croatia in their first game and a win over Iceland, Nigeria's chance of qualification to the next round is now not only in their hands but that of Croatia as well.

Croatia has secured top spot in the group with 6points and 5goals. Meaning that the outcome of Tuesday's match has no impact on their position.

Having already qualified, Croatia may decide to rest it's top players in preparation for knockout round while giving other players playing chance. This means that Iceland with 1point already and needs to win this match in other to qualify may have a fighting chance. Iceland securing a win over Croatia will see them with 4points.
This may cause an upset with respect to the outcome of Nigeria/argentina game.

I wish they had drawn Croatia, now see how they find themselves in this tight corner.
Mek Naija win their game 1st, even if na 1 goal &Iceland shouldn't win Croatia with more than 2goals.
But if Croatia/X, that means Iceland is a Goner.
