Ahmed Musa insists Nigeria will be taking Iran seriously, despite their pre-tournament status as Group F also-rans. The sides begin their FIFA World Cup campaigns against each other in Curitiba on Monday.
Argentina are expected to comfortably top the pool, with Nigeria and Bosnia-Herzegovina evenly matched in many commentator's eyes. Despite Iran's status as rank outsiders to progress, Carlos Quieroz led his side through an impressive qualification campaign, conceding just twice in the final phase to top AFC Group A.
