Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel was pleased that the Nigeria U23 National Team won the country&rsquo;s only medal at the Olympic Games after beating Honduras 3-2 in Saturday&rsquo;s bronze medal match.<br /><br />Because of a flight hitch, the Nigeria squad arrived in Brazil barely seven hours to their opening game versus Japan but still topped Group B of the competition, then defeated Denmark in the quarterfinals before losing 2-0 to Germany in the last four.<br /><br />&ldquo;We were disappointed in that game we lost. And I like to always win. We were disappointed because we had the dream of playing the gold match,&rdquo; said Mikel to reporters. <br /><br />&ldquo;But we are very proud of the team that played very well . We have a fantastic coach . <br /><br />&ldquo;Very proud of the entire team, which has a great future. It is an honor to win this bronze, is like a gold for us.&rdquo;<br /><br />Apart from captaining Team Nigeria, Mikel was Nigeria&rsquo;s most popular athlete at the Olympic Games, and has been labeled the Usain Bolt of Nigeria by the Brazilian press, including <i>TV Globo</i>. <br />
