Malu Mpasinkatu, regarded as Italy’s number one pundit on African Football matters, has tipped an African team to progress to the second round of Brazil 2014 World Cup.

“The more balanced group is that of Ghana which has Germany, Portugal and USA.

“But Ghana has always done well at the World Cup, even if Germany and Portugal are the favorite teams.

“Regarding the Ivory Coast also has its possibilities.

“While it has become customary for Nigeria to do well. As in USA 1994, comes with a young team and well assembled,”Malu Mpasinkatu told Tuttomercatoweb.com.

Nigeria has never met Bosnia Herzegovina at the World Cup same as Iran but locked horns with Argentina on several occasions.

The Super Eagles defeated Iran 1 - 0 in Hong Kong  five months before France 1998.
