CHAN/WAFU: Eagles’ll Win All Matches – Coach

Super Eagles Assistant Coach, Salisu Yusuf, has said that the team hopes to win all its matches in both Championship of African Nations (CHAN) and the West African Football Union (WAFU) tournament.
Yusuf made the remark in an interview with newsmen in Abuja, ahead of the team’s preparations for the championships.
He said that the team would require extra-hard work to edge out their opponents.
“There is need for extra-hard work and training in order to achieve our goal, which is winning all our matches.
“Over 95 per cent of my present team would play in the WAFU Championship,’’ Yusuf said.
The coach, who expressed satisfaction with the players’ form, said that the team could defeat any team in Africa.
Salisu described playing WAFU first before CHAN as an advantage, adding that it would help in blending the team.
Salisu commended the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) for its support to the team so far, and called on Nigerians to expect the best from the CHAN team.
The home-based Super Eagles defeated their Beninoise counterpart 2-0 on Saturday to pick the ticket for the CHAN Cup scheduled for next year in Kenya.
The team would also feature in the WAFU Cup next month in Ghana.
Meanwhile,  the Coach of Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) FC, Akinade Onigbinde has called on the CHAN Super Eagles to improve on their current form to ensure victories in the future.
Onigbinde, who made the call in an interview with newsmen in Abuja while congratulating the team on its qualification for CHAN, said their form was impressive.
“We have a better midfield, defence and attack; in fact, the team is truly a team now.
“I advise the team to improve on their performance and present form for more good results,’’ Onigbinde said.
The coach said that Nigeria’s chances at the CHAN were clear with the team’s current form.
He urged the team to continue to make Nigeria proud, adding that soon the country would take its pride of place in football.
