John Obi Mikel is hoping to qualify for the World Cup in
Russia, as he aims for a win against Cameroon.
Super Eagles are top of the qualifying group, as they are
unbeaten in two matches played so far.
John Obi Mikel insists the Super Eagles are focused on the
match against Cameroon, as it is a step towards qualification.
“There is always a motivation going to the World Cup. World
Cup is the best tournament in the world and everyone wants to be there,” he
told media.
“I think for most of the players here, it’s going to be
their World Cup and we are ready to make sure that Nigeria qualify.
“I know the players know what is at stake in the game on
Friday and also the return leg. We started this race in Zambia and the players
know the task ahead.”
He added: “ We want to go to the World Cup; it’s as simple
as that. And there are no easy ways of doing that; we have to win the games.
“We have to make sure that we are undeterred, focused and
play well. A win is a win if we can get a win on Friday, it doesn’t matter how
we play.”
