LAST MATCH OF THE WORLD CUP GROUP STAGES | YOU WOULDN'T WANT TO MISS THIS CONTEST

The world cup tournament has been amazing so far, expectations were reached, we were shocked, and nevertheless the games were top notch.

The battle for the round of 16 is getting tougher. Two groups has been decided already. Uruguay and Russia advanced to the next stage in Group A, while Spain and Portugal qualified in Group B. Since the best in Group A will be facing the second position in Group B and vice versa, Russia will take on Spain in the 16th round while Uruguay will face Portugal.

Now, to the match of the day. Group C and D will be decided in few hours but I'll be focusing on Group D, one match actually.

Nigeria vs Argentina

Argentina needs a victory to advance to the next stage while Nigeria needs a draw at least. Argentina are currently the last on Group D's table. Who would have anticipated this? Well, in football, anything happens.

However, Iceland are still in the race, they need to win Croatia to advance too, although this isn't farfetched but it's possible. A (2 - 0), (3 - 1) win might see them through to the round of 16.

Messi's fate will be decided today, his team hasn't been fantastic, they've shown how incapable they are. They were poor against Iceland and it got worse against Croatia, can they get to their A game against Nigeria?

Nigeria proved beyond reasonable doubt that they can pull this through, there was lot of energy from them against Iceland, can that performance defeat Argentina?

Let's check their head to head.

1994 - Argentina 2 Nigeria 1 (Fifa world cup)
1995 - Argentina 0 Nigeria 0 ( Fifa confederation cup)
2002 - Argentina 1 Nigeria 0 (Fifa world cup)
2010 - Argentina 1 Nigeria 0 (Fifa world cup)
2011 - Argentina 1 Nigeria 4 (International friendlies)
2011 - Argentina 3 Nigeria 1 (International friendlies)
2014 - Argentina 3 Nigeria 2 (Fifa world cup)
2017 - Argentina 1 Nigeria 4 (International friendlies)

Apparently, Nigeria has never won or draw against Argentina in the world cup. The only two wins they've had is in the friendlies. But, records are meant to be broken right?

Those results from Argentina are from the fearless Argentina we know, can this current squad go on with this?

Now, this made me organise a contest.

Contest! Contest!! Contest!!!

Predict the correct score line of Argentina vs Nigeria.

Winner gets 5 SBD from me.

What if there are more than one winner?

It's simply, they share the 5SBD.

But, I have the feeling only one person will get it right.

Rules?

There is no rule.

You can chose to upvote or resteem this post (It's not compulsory) but don't forget to comment your predicted scoreline under this post before the match begins.

I have another offer!

If you can guess the goal scorers correctly, you win 10SBD.

Again if there are more than one winner, they share the price.

For example:

Argentina 2 Nigeria 2
Goal scorers; Messi and Dybala for Argentina, Musa scored both goals for Nigeria.

If you get the score line correctly, you stand the chance to share or take the 5SBD, if you get the goal scorers, 10 SBD is also coming your way.

Now, let's get the comment section busy.
