Nigeria Coach Set To Ring Tactical Changes Against Morocco in U-20 Afcon

Flying Eagles coach Aliyu Zubairu is expected to review his starting eleven for tonight’s titanic U-20 Afcon Group B clash against deadly Morocco.

“Possibly, there might be one or two changes in the lineup,” hinted Zubairu, in what is anticipated to be a tactical measure.

He appears to demand a more creative, cohesive and communicative hue from his lads in this hugely anticipated encounter.

“Definitely, there is going to be much improvement in our game considering the fact that the last match was the first match of the tournament and tension of the unforeseen will always be there.” Said Coach Aliyu.

Morocco - whose senior national team performed wonders in the 2022 Qatar World Cup - are firm favourites to lift this U-20 Afcon with young, vibrant and exciting players in their ranks. The Moroccan Football Association in recent times have invested heavily in their national teams across age and gender.

The NFF can perhaps learn a thing or two from their Moroccan counterparts.

A positive outcome from the Flying Eagles will be a monumental boost to Nigeria's credentials in this tournament.

Fans of both teams are eagerly looking forward to this duel.

Kick-off tonight for the Flying Eagles clash against Morocco is 7 pm Nigerian time.
