Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel is looking to win an Olympic bronze medal for his nation Nigeria.
The Super Eagles U23 team, captained by Mikel, lost their semi-final clash 2-0 to Germany this week and will now take part in the Bronze medal match this weekend.
Nigeria face fellow semi-finalists Honduras for the third-place finish in Belo Horizonte on Saturday and Mikel is desperate to bring some pride and joy back to the African nation.
