Alex Iwobi And Co Pose In Nigeria Strip For Photoshoot After Touching Down In Russia For World Cup

Nigeria undeniably have the best jersey at the 2018 World Cup.

Alex Iwobi has taken part in a photoshoot after touching down in Russia this week ahead of the World Cup. The Arsenal star posed for several bright snaps in the national side’s kit ahead of the World Cup and he was joined by his team-mates Chidozie Awaziem, Odion Ighalo, and skipper John Obi-Mikel. Nigeria arrived in Russia on Monday night, dazzling in green and white ensembles complete with hats and shoes.

Iwobi was naturally adept in front of the camera while Mikel kissed a ball, while Awaziem and Ighalo took a more serious approach with their poses. The Super Eagles’ base camp is in Essentuki, southern Russia, and they will take on Croatia in the opening game on Saturday, June 16. After Croatia, the Nigerians continue group play against Iceland on June 22 and Argentina on June 26. While a few teams are putting final touches to their preparations for the World Cup holding in Russia, most of the teams are already in the country. The competition holds between June 14 and July 15.
