Days before the 2018 FIFA World Cup commences, Super Eagles head coach, Gernot Rohr, says his team is not ready for the mundial.

The Super Eagles lost their final warm-up game against the Czech Republic on Wednesday.

Reacting to the defeat, Rohr said the 0-1 loss does not really matter but, however, expressed sadness over the result.

He said: “We’ve 9 days to be ready for our 1st match vs Croatia, as at today we are not ready. I am not sad because of this result, the result that matters will be in Russia.”
