Former Super Eagles coach, Adegboye Onigbinde, has disclosed that early preparations if the only key to unlocking Nigeria's qualification to the 2018 FIFA world cup in Russia.
Nigeria was on Friday drawn in Group B, along with the best team on the continent at the moment, Algeria, the 2012 winner of the African Cup of Nations, Zambia and a four-time Afcon winner,
Cameroon, and the former CAF and FIFA instructor said he's not disturbed with all those names but equiped we will be when the qualifiers begin in October.
Nigeria currently has no substantial coach, after the short spell of Salisu Yusuf in charge of the nation's senior national team in May.
"I have never bordered myself with the group or who are there in the group but I concentrate on getting my team prepared for the championship"
"I do not believe in the catchword or singsong ‘Group of Death or Life’ it means absolutely nothing."
"France came to the World Cup in 2002 as champions but lost its first match to relatively unknown side, Senegal."
"Football is not mathematics and I do not believe in records or statistics as well as spying of opponents."
"My interest and concentration has always been to build a solid team for the championship."
"Our chances will squarely depend on how we prepare our team for the qualifying race and it rest on the technical men.
"Nigeria can win the World Cup if everything is properly done but sadly we are still joking with our football," said the former Caf and Fifa instructor to supersport.
