World Cup 2014: Godfrey Oboabona gives Nigeria boost





Nigeria defender Godfrey Oboabona says he is ready to return to training after an ankle injury. 

The 23-year-old missed the victory over Bosnia-Hercegovina after being taken off on a stretcher in his side's World Cup opening game draw against Iran.

"I am ready to resume training and the medics have given me a clean bill," said Oboabona, 23.

Oboabona could face Argentina and replace Joseph Yobo, who needs one more game to reach the 100-cap milestone.

"It's good news that I will reach that milestone but what is uppermost in my mind is for the team to win and for us to advance to the next stage," said 33-year-old Yobo. "The rest will be a bonus,"
