"Playing in front of a pro-Mexico crowd in the United States, Nigeria looked like they were going to have a field day against El Tri early on.
In the 11th minute, Emmanuel Emenike beat Rafa Marquez before then forceing Ochoa to make an outstanding save. Seconds later, off a rebound from a corner kick, Ochoa was once again called into action, diving to his left to stop a bullet from Ogenyi Onazi outside the box".

In the last two high profile friendly matches (against Italy and Mexico) the super eagles have played, they've demonstrated that they are a team to reckon with and can compete with the best teams on the planet. True! they have the potentials to achieve this come June in Brazil. But football is not just about fancy, it's about producing the right results (winning). kudos to Stephen Keshi for transforming the national team into what it is now, but there's still work to be done. I believe by now the coaching staff have been able to identify those aspects where the team is lacking. Our prayers is that the coach makes the right selection to make up the squad that will be travelling to Brazil.
