Head Coach of Nigeria\u2019s Super Eagles, Gernot Rohr has revealed that all of Africa\u2019s five representatives slated to participate at the Russia 2018 World Cup made it to the quarterfinals of the competition in a vision that came to him while he slept.<\/p>\n
The German tactician ensured that Nigeria sealed their ticket to the global showpiece ahead of all others on the continent and will be hoping to guide them out of a difficult Group D which also has Iceland, Croatia and Argentina.<\/p>\n
Nigeria will come up against Argentina a record fifth time in the group stages but Rohr remains adamant that his charges have what it takes to navigate the challenge of the first stage.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe first target will be for us to get out of the group.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe second step, we will see,\u00a0let’s\u00a0work to come out of the group because it’s a very difficult group.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere is Argentina, Croatia and Iceland so it’s difficult.<\/p>\n
\u201cI had a dream that the five African teams are all in the quarterfinals.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is a period of visions so let’s hope that it will arrive,\u201d he told Kwese Sports as he departed the Accra International Conference following the CAF awards.<\/p>\n
