While play on the pitch is where it counts, on paper the Greeks are facing a more daunting task in their Group B future having to look forward to playing group favorite Argentina. The two sides are expected to throw caution to the wind on Thursday while seeking three points.
Greece and Nigeria have met on the pitch twice in their histories, each coming away with 2-0 wins, and the most notable at 1994 FIFA World Cup USA.
If Greece set out to win it 1-0, they can forget it. Vincent Enyeama, the best keeper at the tournament so far, will turn out to be a wall they can’t break down. They’ll need to be at their very best or they’ll be going home, because this keeper will frustrate them, and fresh Nigerian legs will do the rest. It’ll be 2-0 to Nigeria. But both teams need a very good, morale-boosting performance, or they’ll be going home.
