''I think this is perhaps the toughest team in the World Cup, all the teams are very respectable, and what else to say about Messi, who can decide on any match,'' Suker told the official website of Croatian Federation.
The former Arsenal striker added : ''Nigeria at the opening of the group is unknown to us now, but we know that they were undefeated in the qualifying group, which means they are very good.
''With Iceland we have some experience and I'm glad we did, given the breakdown of our last meeting in Reykjavik''.
