'Super Eagles need to believe' - Peterside Idah urges Nigeria to break Argentina jinx

Former Nigeria international Peterside Idah says the Super Eagles need to believe in themselves as they aim to upstage Argentina to progress through to the next stage of the World Cup.

The African giants are second in Group D, with three points after two matches, but require to snatch at least a point against the two-time world champions to stand a chance of advancing to the last 16.

Having lost all previous four meetings with the South American giants at the quadrennial tourney, the former goalkeeper feels Gernot Rohr’s men have what it takes to break the jinx against the Argentine side.
