Bore draw does nothing for Iran or Nigeria

Bore draw does nothing for Iran or Nigeria
17.06.2014 20:00
Iran and Nigeria were responsible for the first bad game of the 2014 World Cup as they played out a 0-0 draw in Curitiba and were booed by supporters in the stands.

The stats on the night said it all as neither side created many clear-cut openings, with less than 10 chances on goal making for grim viewing.Nigeria dominated in terms of possession but failed to break down a well-organised Iran defence and it was Iran who created the best chance, Vincent Enyeama doing well to beat away Reza Ghoochannejad’s point blank header.Peter Odemwingie and Shola Ameobi provided some spark coming off the bench in the second half but failed to inspire the victory that Nigeria hoped for.The result will do neither side any favours with Argentina and Bosnia-Herzegovina to come.(uk.eurosport.yahoo.com)Bakudaily.az
