Yobo: Nigeria can beat France

Nigeria defender Joseph Yobo believes the Super Eagles can beat France and reach the World Cup quarter-finals.

Yobo has told FIFA’s official website that having faced Lionel Messi and Argentina in the group stage, even the presence of Karim Benzema isn’t enough to worry him.

“We've just played against the best forward in the world, so we're ready to measure ourselves against anybody,” he said.

“I don't see what we should be afraid of. I believe in this team, and I think we can do it.

“[Argentina are] one of the best teams in the world and it was a huge test for us.”
