Moraene acknowledged the fact that the Super Eagles are a quality opposition but insisted they will put up a good fight against the hosts.
“It’s going to be a tactical game because we are playing against a big team, Nigeria, one of the best in Africa, ” he told reporters .
“This is not our first time playing against Nigeria we are going to expect a lot from Nigeria because they are going to bring the game to us to get the three points but we are not going to respect them we are going to bring the game to them too. READ ALSO:
