Rizespor Defender, Godfrey Oboabona Does Not Want History To Repeat Itself Against Iran

Nigeria&rsquo;s opening games at the last four editions of the World Cup have been more like a mix bag, winning matches against Bulgaria and Spain while suffering defeats to Argentina on two different occasions.<br /><br />In the same vein, the Super Eagles have not tasted victory in their last eight games at the mundial, since that 1 - 0 win over Bulgaria at the Parc des Princes, Paris on June 19, 1998 thanks to a goal from the <i>Prince of Monaco</i>, Victor Ikpeba.<br /><br />Two 1 -&nbsp; 0 defeats to Argentina at South Korea/ Japan 2002 and South Africa 2010 contributed to Nigeria exiting the tournament in the first round. <br /><br />Rizespor defender, Godfrey Oboabona, does not want history to repeat itself when the Super Eagles clash with Iran on Monday, June 16.<br /><br />&ldquo;I am looking forward to a good game against Iran and I am sure of victory by God&rsquo;s grace. <br /><br />&ldquo;Back in camp, we have been watching clips of the opponents, &rdquo; says Godfrey Oboabona to <b>allnigeriasoccer.com</b>.<br /><br />In their first and only meeting with an Asian opponent at the World Cup, Nigeria drew 2 - 2 with South Korea on June 22, 2010 in Durban.<br /><br />
