FIFA VP Tips Eagles To Fly High In Brazil


President of the Confederation of Central
American and Caribbeans Football
Associations (CONCACAF), Mr Jeffrey Webb,
on Wednesday expressed belief that the
Super Eagles of Nigeria will dazzle the world
at the 20th FIFA World Cup finals in Brazil this
summer.
Captivated and truly bowled over by the
confidence, audacious skills and firmness of
the Eagles in the friendly against Mexico at
the Georgian Dome, Atlanta, USA, Webb, a
FIFA Vice President, left his suite and
searched out the FA President of the African
champions in the Nigerian suite.
“I am very much impressed by the skills and
confidence of your players. They will
definitely do well at the World Cup.
“I was in Johannesburg when you won the
Africa Cup of Nations last year and I can see
that the team has even improved
tremendously, going by the way they are
standing up to a top team like Mexico,” Webb
said.
Webb, from Cayman Islands, who was last
year tipped by incumbent FIFA President
Sepp Blatter to succeed him as world
football’s supremo.
