Algerians have not taken kindly to a tweet by the Nigeria Football Federation published via their official account, in which they insulted the Desert Foxes, two days before both countries face off in a World Cup qualifier. <br /><br />The authoritative website Le Buteur took an exception to the message broadcasted to millions of Nigerians, calling it provocative. <br /><br />&ldquo;A Super Eagle and a Desert Fox do not operate at the same level. While an Eagle soars in the air, a fox scavenges on the ground, &rdquo; the Nigeria Football Federation stated. <br /><br />&ldquo;Our darling Super Eagles will soar and dominate on Saturday in Uyo. Wear Green and White on matchday. &rdquo;<br /><br />Les Fennecs (Desert Foxes) is the national animal of Algeria and mostly live in the Sahara desert. <br /><br />Igho Kingsley <br />
