Ex USA Youth - Teamer, William John: Eagles Will Show Their True Colours In Brazil
Former USA youth - teamer and AZAL midfielder, William Oluremi John, was on the podium when Nigeria clashed with United States on Saturday.<br /><br />The Super Eagles will head to Brazil without a win in their five exhibition matches, following the 2 - 1 loss to Team USA at EverBank Field (Jacksonville, Florida).<br /><br />Buoyed by a partisan crowd, Sunderland striker Jozy Altidore scored either side of the half before Victor Moses converted a late penalty to give the States a narrow win.<br /><br />“I think to be honest, Nigeria still showed some promise. There is nothing to be worried about losing a friendly before the World Cup.<br /><br />“It would be nice for us to go to Brazil with a win but I think once the team is there, once the world cup is starting, we’ll show the true colors of Nigeria.<br /><br />“So I was happy to check out the game. I am sure the best is yet to come from the boys, ” William Oluremei John said to <b>allnigeriasoccer.com</b>.<br /><br />It is worthy of mention that the African champions are adequately prepared for the mundial in terms of the opposition they faced in their tune - up matches, with four of their test games against the top ranked 20 teams in the world (Italy, Greece, USA and Mexico).<br /><br />Nigeria are pitted in a friendly group at the World Cup, having been drawn alongside Argentina, Bosnia and Iran.<br />
