Flying Eagles coach, Manu Garba, has stated that his team is not ready for the Africa Youth Championship (AYC), despite wining their first match at the Super 4 tournament.
The Flying Eagles, who have been preparing for the AYC in Kaduna, beat Enyimba who will be featuring in the CAF Champions League, by 2-0.
“We aren’t ready yet,” Garba told SL10.ng
“We’ve noticed a couple of mistakes that we shall correct. If you noticed, we created a lot of scoring chances that we failed to convert and that means it’s important that we correct that.
“Don’t forget that we shall be going to Gambia to finalise our preparation for the AYC, after which I think we can say the team is fully ready for Africa,” Garba stated.
The Flying Eagles will have their hands full on Monday when they take Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) champions, Kano Pillars, however, Garba believes his side will take each game as it comes.
“For us, we always want to win every game we go into. Playing and wining the Super 6 will boost the morale of the team going into a major tournament like the AYC. But I must say that we take every game as it comes,” Garba stated.
