Iwobi confident Eagles will improve

By Taofeek Babalola

Super Eagles forward Alex Iwobi has assured Nigerians that the team will do well at the World Cup in Russia despite their 2-1 defeat to England in Saturday’s international friendly game at the Wembley Stadium, Sportinglens.blogspot.com reports.   

England capitalised on an error-strewn first-half performance by Nigeria as Gary Cahill and captain Harry Kane put them ahead before Alex Iwobi pulled one back for the Super Eagles.

The Arsenal star became the first Nigerian to score against England in a senior international football match.

Iwobi insists there were positives in the match but not the result they wanted.


“Love to all the Naija supporters that came out to Wembley today and to all the Nigerian’s supporting around the world. Not the result we wanted but we push forward to Russia,” Iwobi twitted after the game.
