We’re in group of death with Nigeria, Algeria-Broos

Head coach of the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon Hugo Broos has stated that it will be difficult for all the teams in Group B of the African Russia 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.

Cameroon drew Nigeria, Algeria and Zambia with only the group winners qualifying.

On Friday, 20 teams were drawn in five groups of four with the top teams guaranteed a place at the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia.

Broos told cafonline.com that Nigeria, Algeria and Zambia are all top teams.

"This is the group of death and it's a very difficult group, especially with a team like Algeria, you also have Zambia and Nigeria, three very good teams," Broos said.

"It will be very difficult for each team in the group. We will see what happens on the opening days in October and November."

The Super Eagles will open their qualifying campaign away to Zambia while Cameroon will be guests to Algeria.
