As Nigeria approach their final round of group stage fixtures in this year's World Cup, United fan Kelvin Olasupo evaluates his home nation's chances of progressing further in the competition.

Which country are you representing and why?

I’m supporting Nigeria because I’m a Nigerian.

How far do you think your team will go in the tournament - can they reach the final and win?

I think Nigeria can go all the way to the final if their display against Iceland is anything to write about.

Nigeria sit in second place in Group D ahead of their final group match against Argentina.

Which United star do you think will shine brightest during this World Cup?

Romelu Lukaku has been a big hit in the World Cup so far and I can see him being the top scorer.

How would you sum up your feelings about the World Cup using emojis only?

The African nation started off their World Cup campaign with a defeat, but pulled off an impressive win against Iceland.

Have you ever been to Old Trafford?

I visited Old Trafford back in August 2017.

Which player from your national team would you love to see in a United shirt?

I’d love to see Wilfred Ndidi of Leicester in an #MUFC shirt. He is a rock in the midfield.

Wilfred Ndidi of Leicester City has been a key player in Nigeria's midfield during the World Cup.
