National
U-23 team coach, Samson Siasia, has said he is sure of victory in the second
leg of the 2015 Africa U-23 Championship qualifying fixture against Congo in
Pointe Noire on Sunday.
Nigeria
hold a slim 2-1 win from the first leg of the match played in Port Harcourt a
fortnight ago. But the coach who spoke before the team’s departure for Congo on
Thursday expressed utmost confidence in his players’ ability to grab the three
points at stake adding that he loves to play big games.
“I love big games, and I’m not shy to say so.
This is with every sense of modesty. Pointe Noire is another tough session, but
I look forward to it,” Siasia told the Nigeria Football Federation’s official
website.
“It
will not be easy; nothing good in life comes easy. But we will give it our very
best shot and return from Pointe Noire with victory.”
The
former Nigeria international has played against tough teams in his previous
spells with the team. Hence the Congo match would not be really a new one to
him.
