U-17 AFCON: Morocco tough side, but beatable – Eaglets forward, Ogbadibo

Date:

Golden Eaglets forward, Tochukwu Ogbadibo is anticipating a difficult test for the team against Morocco at the Stade Mohamed Hamlaoui, Constantine on Wednesday.

The Atlas Cubs underlined their title credentials by putting up a good showing in the 2-0 defeat of South Africa last weekend.

The North Africans will look to seal a place in the last eight when they battle with the Eaglets who also share the same ambition.

Nduka Ugbade’s side are also in a good mood having won their opening fixture 1-0 against Zambia.

Ogbadibo reckoned that they have what it takes to beat the Moroccans even though it will not be an easy task.

“Morocco is a really tough opponent and we respect them a lot. They are a good side and we saw this from their game against South Africa,” the Jossy striker told a press conference on Tuesday.

“We will definitely step up to do our best and try to create victory because it is important for us to advance to the next round.”

The game will kick-off at 5pm Nigerian time.
