Golden Eaglets head coach Manu
Garba believes his team will qualify
for the semi-finals of the on-going
Fifa Under-17 World Cup ahead of
his side’s last-eight match against
Uruguay on Saturday.
After seeing his youthful side beat Iran 4-1 in the
round of 16 on Tuesday, Garba said: “Uruguay, like
the other South American teams, play with the
same style as our team and are a good side, but I
am confident our team will be one of the last four
teams in the tournament.
“But our big victory does not mean our team did
not commit mistakes.
We have to work on these
mistakes because the competition is getting
tougher and stronger.
“We are an attacking team. We have scored 18
goals in four matches and I don’t remember a
match, friendly or official, we played and failed to
score goals.
But we also have to pay attention to
our defence because there appeared some
mistakes, which we cannot afford in the quarter-
final.”
