Nigeria Football Federation Secretary General Mohammed Sanusi has made it clear that they are expecting a tough game against Italy and Brazil, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

Sanusi who was in attendance when the Flying Eagles defeated the Dominican Republic 2-1 said after the game that they do expect a high-margin victory against the debutant but it was never meant to be.

"We are happy with the three points even though we wanted the boys to win by a bigger margin. goal advantage matters in a competition like this.

“The next two games will be much tougher and I expect the Flying Eagles to show tougher things as well", he said.

The Flying Eagles will confront Italy in the second group match on Wednesday in Mendoza.
