The Nigerian national team arrived in Brazil early this morning for the 20th FIFA World Cup, which would be the fifth World Cup campaign of the Super Eagles since debuting in 1994.

The Super Eagles are among nine nations to have landed in Brazil, with Belgium also arriving about the same time Nigeria did, while France, Argentina and the United States arrived earlier.

After landing at the Sao Paolo International Airport, the Super Eagles will travel to Campinas where final preparations for the World Cup will begin.

Nigeria begin their campaign against Iran on June 16 before facing World Cup debutants Bosnia-Herzegovina on June 21 and former champions Argentina on June 25.
