Maikaba sure of victory over Guinea Bissau


By Taofeek Babalola

Flying Eagles assistant coach Abdu Maikaba is confident of Flying Eagles' victory over Guinea Bissau in the first leg of a 2019 Africa U20 Cup of Nations second round qualifying fixture on Saturday, Sportinglens.blogspot.com reports. 
The Akwa United manager said that the team had the best preparation and they are in high spirit for the game.

Nigeria U20 boys had a two–match tour of Egypt in March and played several warm up matches against the local teams before they traveled to Guinea Bissau for the match.

“We have high expectations in the game and by the current form exhibited by the team in recent preparatory games we should go there and pick maximum points,” Maikaba said to Sportinglens.blogspot.com.

The match will take place at the September 24 Stadium in Bissau, starting from 4pm Guinea Bissau time (5pm in Nigeria).

The Nigeria team contingent which include 20 players and team officials led by Coach Paul Aigbogun made the trip.
