The 2010 FIFA World Cup Organizing Committee South Africa (OC) would like to welcome Nigeria’s Super Eagles who arrived in the country on 2nd June for the 2010 FIFA World Cup.
The organizers think it to be a matter of great pleasure and proud for South Africa that they are welcoming Nigeria in their country. “First of all, I feel very privileged to be here and to be part of
this World Cup; the first World Cup in Africa. We are looking forward to what we hope will be a good tournament. The few weeks have been wonderful for me – the players attitudes have been great. We have had great preparations,” said Nigeria’s coach, Lars Lagerback.Though Nigeria is in a very tough group to compete for, they are very much optimistic about the tournament and they are really happy and pleased with the welcome of South Africa.Nigeria will open their campaign in Johannesburg against Argentina on 12 June before playing Greece in Mangaung/ Bloemfontein on 17 June. They will then finish off their Group Matches against Korea Republic in Durban on 22 June.
