According to coach Gernot Rohr, players of the Nigeria national team are prohibited from traveling to Russia for women during the 2018 World Cup. The 64-year-old coach does not feel that there is any serious problem if students meet their wives and girlfriends after each match; however, interacting with local women is another story.
No, no, definitely not. Only captain Mikel has a Russian girlfriend outside the ban.
We are participating in a big tournament, so discipline is a top priority, said Mr. Gernot Rohr.
The content of the "Green Bangs" is like that, the "Three Lions" are not allowed to cross that limit. Professor Anthony Glees at the University of Buckingham believes that England should warn players to be careful with beautiful Russian girls. He was concerned that the players could fall into the "sweet trap" and distract themselves from playing.
I think England dont have much hope to win this World Cup. However, there are still many potential plots to deceive us, such as using women's beauty, for example.
The beautiful Russian girls are ready to do that. Everyone should be careful, then it's better," said Mr. Anthony Glees.
Without the advice of the 69-year-old professor, Coach Gareth Southgate was even more determined in not allowing his students to meet their girlfriends and wives after matches or after practice. According to this strategist, "those things" can cause players to lose focus and lose strength.
Nigieria had their first match in Group D, a forgettable 0-2 against Croatia. Meanwhile, England are waiting for the opening day of Group G with the match against Cambodia on June 19.
