Celtic's Ambrose expecting Nigeria to 'go a long way' in Brazil

Efe Ambrose believes the Nigeria national team is capable of doing very well at the World Cup next year.

The Celtic defender has been a key part of the Super Eagles side which gained qualification to Brazil 2014 recently and is now targeting an extended run at the FIFA tournament next summer.

"I'm happy to be part of this history-making. My target now is to help my country do well at the World Cup," he said.

"We can shine in Brazil because I know we can play a lot better than what we've been doing.

"We have a talented group of players and I expect us to go a long way next year."
