The Nigerians scored nine goals and allowed four during the final round.

Betting Analysis:

Nigeria is playing in Group B with Argentina, South Korea, and Greece. Based on the odds, Nigeria is the second best team entering the group, so a spot in the Round of 16 is very possible. Since qualifying, Nigeria has went 2-0-2 with wins over the Congo and North Korea. Should Nigeria reach the tournament format, it will take a great effort to win it all, but any team can beat another team in a one-game situation.
