Brazil 2014: Bosnia striker, Dzeko sends warning signal to Eagles

Super Eagles defenders would definitely have a lot of work to do in Brazil when they face World Cup debutants, Bosnia at the mundial if the form of Manchester City’s forward Edin Dzeko is anything to go by.
Dzeko last night brightened Man City’s chance of lifting the EPL shield when he banged in a brace against Everton at Goodison Park with coach Manuel Pellegrini describing him as a world class striker.
Dzeko’s goals saw City running away with a 3-2 win that has now shot them to the top of the EPL log ahead of Liverpool who would tomorrow face Crystal Palace.
City are now effectively two wins away from the title. For Everton, the re­sult ends their UEFA champions league aspiration for next season.
The league leaders looked in for a dif­ficult encounter and fell behind early to a stunning curling effort from England World Cup hopeful Ross Barkley in the 11th minute. Sergio Aguero equalized for City in the 22nd minute. Dzeko was on target in the 43rd and 48th minute to give City a comfortable 3-1 lead. Rom­elu Lukaku pulled one back for Everton in 65th minute, but City held on to win.
