Flying Eagles skipper Abduljaleel Ajagun is very upbeat that the Junior Pharaohs of Egypt must fall in today’s African Youth Championship (AYC) semi final match in Algeria.
Ajagun who bagged the CAF man of the match against Congo DR on Saturday said their victory over Congo DR showed that they are the best team of the tournament.
“Egypt will not be a problem to us. We have already beaten them at their home and we are going to beat them again on Tuesday. Though we respect the Egyptians, but we have the players to beat them again. Our victory over Congo Dr showed that we’re the best team of the tournament”.
Ajagun has been delightful in his appearances for the Flying Eagles and many here refer to him as a future Super Eagles player because of his outstanding performance. “We may not have started very well at the beginning against Mali. I am happy that we have qualified for the World Cup in Turkey. Our target is to defend our trophy and I am happy that all the players are in top shape. Without being boastful, I know that we’ll beat Egypt tomorrow”, he said confidently.
