Flying Eagles head coach, Aliyu Zubairu is optimistic his side will beat Ghana’s Black Satellites in the final of the WAFU B U-20 Championship.
The defending champions will look to successfully defend their title when they take on the Ghanaians at the Stade Kegue, Lome on on Thursday.
The encounter will kick-off at 8pm Nigeria time.
Zubairu said his side will exploit the weakness of their opponent.
“Ghana are a good team, but they’re not fast. They don’t play with high intensity,” Zubairu said in his pre-match press conference.
“We’re also aware of the rivalry with Ghana at any level.
“We have grown in this tournament, we have improved with each match.”
Nigeria and Ghana have already qualified for the Africa U-20 Cup of Nations.
