When it comes to talent, there is no doubt Nigeria has it, and the talent Nigerian players have is taking them far in football even without good football structures and sponsors like those in European countries. In Africa, Nigeria is supposed to be the center of football if the government were ready to invest and foster better development. I'm well familiar with Nigeria; it is a place where every open space and street is a venue for people to play football. The problem they have is the lack of government support and development in sports, especially in football.
We do not just have talent but players who can manage no matter how hard it is for them, why i said management is that alot of people who knows players that started there journey from the rural environment will understand what they went through building themselves because if there was no determination they would have been won by the hardship that affected them, actually this thing is not only for those who are still pushing to be known but this situation was what some players representing on the national team has sometimes at there early football gone through, so perhaps this is mostly why Nigeria is growing popular because of the defeated poor foundation.
