AFCON 2017 QUALIFIER :Eagles Can Win in Alexandria

AFCON 2017 QUALIFIER:Eagles Can Win in Alexandria-Siasia


Super Eagles’ Interim Coach Samson Siasia on
Friday in Kaduna said his team would now be
aiming to beat the Pharaohs of Egypt when
both teams meet on Tuesday.
Siasia, who said this during a post-match
briefing at the Ahmadu Bello Stadium, following
his team’s 1-1 draw with the Pharaohs, said
his team could win the return leg match.
The return leg match of the 2017 Africa Cup of
Nations (AFCON) Qualifying Group G fixture
holds in Alexandria on Tuesday.
Etebo Oghenekaro had on Friday put the
Eagles ahead in the 60th minute before
Mohamed Salah beat the offside trap to
equalise for the Pharaohs in the 90th minute.
The Eagles handler, however, said the team’s
technical crew would correct the lapses
noticed in the match in Kaduna before the
reverse fixture in Alexandria on Tuesday.
He said the Eagles played well but the
technical crew needed to make some
corrections before their next match in Egypt.
“We will try to see what went wrong and do a
proper check before playing our next match so
that we can win in Egypt.
