Come on you Super Eagles! Everyone has booked France's place in the next round already it seems. Let's upset that apple cart.

I have just had an email from Nigerian bookmaker Nwilliam Hillwingie and I have been told I have £3m in betting cash to spend with them

Tempted to put the whole lot on a 4-4 draw

I'm really liking the way that Nigeria are playing - expansive, attacking football. They could easily win this.

They could, but the defence is still a worry for me.

How is Evra allowed to get away with that? The ref saw him holding the attacker and had a word with him. Surely that's a pen?

So frustrating. Pretty much boss the game for 75 minutes then let France back into it and gift them a goal.
