Nigeria Vs Mali - U20 Nations Cup (0 - 1) Live by billante(m): 7:51am On Mar 17, 2013 |
Nigeria comes into the 12 th Orange CAF U-20 African Championship that starts in Algeria this weekend as title holders but to their coach John Sam Obuh says that doesn’t count for anything going into this tournament. “ For a start this is a different team from two years ago and while that’s sounds nice to be called defending champions, you cannot expect that to simply win you the next tournament, so we are well prepared and ready to engage side in the competition” Speaking to Cafonline.com ahead of his team’s opening match against fellow West Africans, Mali on Sunday in Oran, Obuh believes there are no small teams in the competition and every side has potential to do well so he has prepared his charges with this in mind, “ We respct every team here and for our first game, we expect a tough match against Mali who always have strong teams especially at youth level. Mali is always there or thereabout in such competitions and we have to play well to win but l am confident of my team and having done as much as a coach can, all that is left is for the good fortune from God that you always need to do well in football” Like other coaches in the tournament, Obuh made no secret that the target for his side is a semi-final place, which gives Nigeria an automatic qualification for FIFA U-20 World Cup later on this year. “ We will take it one game at a time as we aim to make semis and from there on we will look to retain the Cup but securing a World Cup place is the top priority. It is almost like an added bonus to reach semis and this is motivation enough for the boys. They want to go and play in the World Cup like the 2011 side and l tell them they too have an opportunity to be part of history by reaching Turkey where the U-20 World Cup will take place.” Nigeria vs Mali will kick off at 17h30 local time in Oran- Algeria and will be followed in the same stadium by DR Congo vs Gabon kick off 20h30 http://www.cafonline.com/competition/can-u-20_2011/news/16495-being-defending-champions-wont-count-for-anything-nigerian-coach-john-obuh.html 1 Like |

Not really keen on the competition. Hardly any U20 amongst these guys. Unlike the current U17 team which is largely REAL U17 1 Like |
