Super Eagles arrive Brazil
The African champions touched down for the World Cup as scheduled in Sao Paulo on Tuesday night from their pre-tournament camp in the United States.
A year ago, Nigeria arrived three days late for the Confederations Cup in Brazil and in disarray after a player strike over bonuses caused delays and threatened to throw the World Cup warm-up tournament into chaos reports Super sport.
Late Tuesday, the Nigerians were transferring through Brazil’s huge commercial hub to their World Cup base in the city of Campinas, around 100km north of Sao Paulo.
The 2013 African Cup of Nations winners will play Iran in their opening game in Group F in Curitiba on Monday.
