Black Galaxies of Ghana head coach, Didi Dramani has said his side will fight hard to keep a clean sheet against Nigeria.
The Black Galaxies were held to a 0-0 draw by their West African rivals in the first leg of their 2024 African Nations Championship qualifier in Accra on Sunday.
Ghana will travel to Nigeria for the return encounter on December 28, 2024.
The winner of the tie qualifies to compete at next year’s CHAN tournament that will be held in Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania.
“As much as possible, we will try to keep a clean sheet but I want to believe that we will surely score. We will score, we will open up something. I control the energy, the effort, I control the performance (of my boys) but the results, we don’t control it” he said.
The Black Galaxies edged out Nigeria on penalties two years ago to secure a spot in the last edition and are seeking for a second consecutive qualification over their West African rivals.
