NFF board member and technical Committee Chairman, Barrister Chris Green said the tape would enable the coaches have sufficient knowledge of their opponents.
“The task at hand is to prepare the players, devise a winning strategy and at the same time make the necessary corrections before traveling to Zimbabwe next week,” he said
