While Nigeria’s are eagerly awaiting Tuesday evening’s clash between the Super Eagles and Serbia, their opponents have been heaping praise on the Eagles ahead of the clash.
Anderlecht player, Ivan Obradovic said it would not be easy against a Nigerian team that beat Argentina in November 2017.
He said, “In November, the Nigerians beat Argentina. They are a physically dominant team with a lot of talented players and it will not be easy.
“It is clear that this will be another good test and opportunity to see at what level we are.
“Of course, we will use the opportunity to work on some things. I have no dilemma that these two matches are good tests.’’
PAOK striker Aleksandar Prijovi said the Eagles deserve respect on account of the physical strength of the players in the squad.
He said, “Nigeria is a national team that deserves a respect, its players are physically strong and the next match will definitely be a good test for us. We will do everything to win, we will give the maximum to score better than in the previous match.
“The outcome of such matches is not primary, because it is important to correct some things. It is important for us to win.”
