Can Flying Eagles Coach Extract Maximum 3 Points Against Kenya?

Flying Eagles coach Aliyu Zubairu, who is yet to prove doubters wrong about his tactical sagacity and acumen, intends to shoot for all 3 points in his team's denouement group stage encounter against Kenya in this U-20 Afcon tournament.

The team currently occupy second in the standings after they drew 0-0 with group leaders Morocco in their second group game Sunday night following a wafer thin 1:0 victory against Tunisia in their curtain raiser.

Kenya are bottom of the standings after they lost 3-2 to Morocco and 3-1 to Tunisia.

“We will approach the game against Kenya with all sense of positivity,” said the Flying Eagles coach.

“We will play with all the concentration to get the three points," he mentioned .

A body of Flying Eagles fans have accused the team of playing boring kick-and-follow football that is bereft of modern tactical injection.

I think we should give this team a chance to grow into the tournament. In my observation, they play functional football that has its strength in the team's physicality and athletism.

This approach, with a high level of togetherness and concentration, should help clinch them one of the world cup tickets on offer.

The Flying Eagles will tackle the Rising Stars of Kenya Wednesday. Kick-off time is 4 pm Nigerian time.
