WC2014 Iran 0 – 0 NigeriaMillions Left Scarred As Disaster LoomsOne of the great things about this World Cup is that it almost makes you forget how turgid some of the so-called football we’re regularly served up actually is. Sadly this match jump cut us back to horrible Monday nights in November when someone on Sky is trying to convince you that Coventry v Norwich has any kind of attraction. Yes it really was that disasterous.
It’s really no surprise given Iran have been trawling through the dregs that Europe has to offer to see if anyone has any persian connections and Nigeria have been relying on the same iconic figures who have been propping up their side for the best part of a decade. However, bad as it was, neither of these sides were as bad as the Irish were in Euro 2012. |
