Nigeria will face world cup debutant in Group D on Friday at the Volgograd Arena in their second ever game in the competition, after losing to Croatia 2-0 in the first game.

Ahead of the clash Iceland assistant coach Helgi Kolviðsson have confessed that the game against Nigeria will be a tough one but his team is capable of taking all the three points against them.

Iceland upset the two-time winners of the world cup Argentina in the first match of Group D fixture at the Spartak Stadium.

“We can win everyone. It’s just that way. We always believe in ourselves no matter who the opponent is. We are not going to underestimate Nigeria,” Kolviðsson stated in an interview with Visir.is.

“We know their team is extremely strong. They will also want to win as well so it will be a tricky game. It will be like a World Cup final.”

Iceland got a first hand of what to expect against the Super Eagles in their 2-2 draw against Ghana prior to the competition.

“In the friendly game against Ghana we saw a lot of things similar to Nigeria. What we know is that the players are extremely quick and good at counter attacks,” he added. ” It could therefore be much more dangerous if we lose the ball against them. The types of players, they go a lot on one on one and sometimes it's hard to figure them out.”
