[We believe in da Streets] Enyeama says Nigeria does not fear Spain

Vincent Enyeama says Nigeria has nothing to fear when it faces Spain in the FIFA Confederations Cup on Sunday with a place in the semifinals on the line.

The Super Eagles can still qualify from Group B if they beat La Roja and end the group with a better goal differential than Uruguay, against whom the African side suffered its first defeat in 20 matches on Thursday.

Spain is undefeated in its last 14 encounters at the international level, but Enyeama insists Nigeria should not be afraid of the reigning world and European champions' all-star side.

"I don't think there's any Nigerian player here who is scared," Enyeama told reporters. "We're so proud of our teams in Nigeria. The teams in Spain are much bigger than the teams in Nigeria, but we're very proud of our league and we're proud of our country.

"We're here to represent our colors, and we'll stake everything for our colors. We respect Spain, they're a great side, but we're not afraid of them."

The Africa Cup of Nations winner also believes that preparation for next year's World Cup is going according to plan despite widespread public demonstrations over poor public services in Brazil throughout the Confederations Cup.

"I think Brazil should be ready in one year's time," Enyeama said. "From what I've seen, the hotels are OK, the food is nice, the pitches are amazing, the organization, logistics for me is perfect.
