- Flying Eagles head coach, Paul Aigbogun insists the team will give their all to ensure they come out with a win in Wednesday’s Group A clash against hosts Niger at the Africa U -20 Cup of Nations, reports completesports.com.
- Aigbogun’s charges top the Group A table with four points from two games, a win and draw against Burundi and the Amajita of South Africa.
- A draw will be enough for the seven-time champions to seal a spot in the semi-final of the competition and a place at the FIFA U -20 World Cup in Poland coming up in May irrespective of the result in the other group game between Burundi and South Africa.
- Aigbogun is however adamant his team will try to win the game and play for draw.”It’s a normal game that we could not avoid. One thing we know is that Niger is a good team,”
- Aigbogun told reporters at his pre-match press conference at the Seyni Kountche Stadium on Thursday.
- “Against South Africa it was difficult despite playing well but we will work hard against Niger. We will fight to win.”
