We Won’t Focus On Messi – Yobo

Fenerbahce defender Joseph Yobo has
stressed that Nigeria will not focus on
stopping Barcelona superstar Lionel
Messi when they square off with
Argentina on Wednesday afternoon.

The Super Eagles skipper has pointed out
that there are 10 other players that will be
on parade at the Estádio José Pinheiro
Borba.

“Messi is a legend. Unbelievable. But it is
not just Messi. The whole team is good.
But we know he can produce what he did
against Iran, which was a difficult game,”
Joseph Yobo said.

Lazio midfielder Eddy Onazi added :
“Messi is a normal human being. He is a
football player. We have to create our
strategy.”

No matter the outcome of the game with
Argentina, Nigeria will advance to the last
16 of the World Cup if Iran fails to beat
Bosnia on Wednesday.
