Nigeria vs. Korea Republic has Nigeria on the spotlight. Lars Lagerback is the first Scandinavian and the 23rd expatriate coach of Nigeria since Englishman John Finch in 1949, to handle the Super Eagles. He was considered to be a long-shot to get the post ahead of former England bosses, Sven Goran-Eriksson and Glenn Hoddle, the Swede gave an impressive interview to be picked ahead of a strong field of candidates last February.

Sani Lulu, President of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), hailed Lagerback as Nigeria’s ‘Special One,’ and declared that the bearing of the coach and sure footedness will pass on the right mentality and new spirit on the players. As stated in an exclusive interview with FIFA. Coach Lagerback gave his impressions, thoughts and expectations regarding his first adventure in Africa.

The website of FIFA sends its congratulations for the appointment as the coach of Nigeria. And asked about working with the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF)?

Lars Lagerback said he is very thankful and impressed with the hospitality that he has received. It is a fantastic time with some kind words and sometimes tough words. The Nigeria Football Federation has done their homework and planned for friendly games and ensured that the team is busy and it will help the coach make good assessment of the players. Lars thinks he can do something and make more time for preparations.

Korea Republic had a hard time from Korea DPR, who held their arch rivals to a triple tie before a slim loss in the fourth game. But it did not prevent the South Korea from reaching South Africa 2010. Determined stalemates in Saudi Arabia during the last game make them earn the point that they needed to continue. Once the Taeguk Warriors’ were up front, at present Ahn Jung-Hwan and Lee Dong-Gook are waiting for the chance to take part in probably their last FIFA World Cup™. The two strikers work in tandem with each other during the qualifying for Germany 2006, but four years onward, only coach Huh Jung-Moo knows if the duo or one of them will make it to South Africa. Ahn and Lee have a lot of things in common. They immediately took the stage on their first appearance in the K-League in 1998, with Pohang as a starlet Lee got the Rookie of the Year award and Ahn got the Most Valuable Player the following season with Busan. Lee shone on the world stage with an impressive appearance in 1998 at France, Ahn made it to Perugia in 2000 with the Italian Serie A. Korea is out to prove something, so don’t fail to see the World Cup 2010 Nigeria vs. Korea Republic.
