NOT A LAUGHING MATTER – Siasia
Dream Team VI manager, Samson Siasia, wants to take a healthy advantage to the second leg of the All Africa Games qualifier against Zambia. The Nigeria Under 23s will
confront their Zambian counterparts on Sunday in Abuja, and Siasia knows his squad will have a foot in Congo-Brazzaville, where the 11th All-Africa Games is scheduled to take place if they thrash their opponents.
“My boys are ready for the Zambians. Our focus is on doing the job here in Abuja on Sunday so that we can then put our feet down in the return leg. Our match against Lobi Stars on Saturday helped a lot. We have been able to notice a few places that we need to continue to work on.
“Our first target is the All-Africa Games, and then we start the qualification series for the CAF U-23 Championship where the qualifiers for the Olympic Games would emerge, “ said Siasia.
Zambia qualified for this lat round of the AAG qualifiers without kicking a ball after Madagascar withdrew from the football event of the tournament.
