Match of the Day 30.06.2014

 FRANCE – NIGERIA

WORLD CUP 2014

The 5th game of the Finals will be held today starting at 19:00 GMT. France‘s Benzema will meet Nigeria‘s Obi Mikel in a game that will be played at Estadio Nacional de Brasil.

France is free but perhaps one of the teams that have impressed this World Cup with extremely good benefits. “Gallic roosters” won fairly easy group E which also included Switzerland, Honduras and Ecuador, the latter being the only national who managed to finish the game without losing, 0-0, ending the game. Against South Americans draw was enough to be insured but first in the group, which is probably why boys have forced Didier Deschamps. The French have a formidable offensive force in the last 5 games managed to score no less than 17 goals. Mamadou Sakho is the only player uncertain favorites today, he having but a very good chance of being completely rebuilt until the start of the match.

On the other side, Nigeria was ranked on the second place in Group F which also included Argentina, Iran and Bosnia. National Keschi coached was among the lucky ones who got to this stage getting only 4 points in the first three games. The only victory of “super eagles” was against Bosnia, in a match that Dzeko scored a goal perfectly valid, but mistakenly canceled. Nigeria is one of the few teams in this tournament that had two games with more than 3 table changes. African coach will have a problem in the batch composition, Babatunde Moses and Oboabona being injured and uncertain, the last being more likely to recover fully until game time.
