Nigeria To Play Greece And USA In World Cup Warm-Up Event

Nigeria will play friendly internationals against Greece and the United States in June as part of their warm-up for this year's World Cup.

The Super Eagles face Iran in Group F before taking on Bosnia-Herzegovina, and will finish against Argentina in a bid to reach the last 16, as they did in both 1994 and 1998. The West Africans will hope to avoid falling at the first hurdle - a fate they suffered in both 2002 and 2010.

Despite losing both their opening group games in South Africa, the Super Eagles could still have reached the last 16 had they beaten South Korea in their final game, but were held to a 2-2 draw to finish bottom of the pool.

Their best outings at the tournament were in 1994 and 1998 when they reached the knockout round of 16.
