Iceland Captain Gunnarsson : We Have Nothing To Lose, Nigeria Have Strong Players
Published: December 01, 2017
Cardiff City midfielder Aron Einar Gunnarsson has admitted that Iceland are in a difficult group with Argentina, Nigeria and Croatia following the World Cup draw that was held in Moscow on Friday evening.
The Super Eagles do battle with Iceland at the Volgograd Arena, Volgograd on June 22, 2018.
''This is not the easiest group," said Aaron Einar, the captain of the Icelandic national team, to vísir.is.
"It has always been a dream to meet these real nations that we have never had the opportunity to play with.
''This will be an experience, but we have nothing to lose. It will be extremely difficult, great teams and it will be difficult to get out of the group.
''So it's Argentina with Messi and I do not know who in the attack. Nigeria is not the best organized team but with strong individuals. We need a lot to beat them. This is a dead end, but we have faith in us..''
