Super Eagles Assistant Coach, Usman Abdallah has expressed optimism that the ‘ CHAN Eagles’ will defeat Ghana to qualify for the 2022 Africa Nations Championship (CHAN) in Algeria.
The 2022 CHAN initially scheduled for 2022 was postponed by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) to January, 2023.
Abdallah hinged his optimism on the crop of NPFL players in camp, in Abuja, the team has all it takes to conquer the Black Galaxies who would take on Qatar today in a warm match ahead of the first leg qualifier in Cape Coast August 28.
“With the crop of players currently in camp, we have all it takes to qualify for the CHAN in Algeria.
“We have a good set of players from the local league, some of them have played in the main super Eagles, so the exposure is there,” he said.
The return leg is billed for the Moshood Abiola Stadium, Abuja on Sept. 3. The winner of the two-legged encounter qualifies for the 2022 CHAN in Algeria.(NAN)
