Super Eagles handler, Stephen Keshi, has said that theteam would face a dangerous opposition in Chad in its 2017 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier in Kaduna.
The football gaffer, who said that he was keen on restarting on a winning note, admitted that he was yet to get recent clips of the Chadians, even though he was in possession of some old clips and could also rely on the knowledge he had of some individual Chad players during his stint as coach of Mali’s national team.
He said, “The current Chad squad we don’t know and that is why they are very dangerous. They know us, we don’t know them but we will try and make things difficult (for them). I have gotten one or two (clips) but they are old ones where they used mostly home-based players.
“The people coming on Saturday are mostly foreign-based professionals, who ply their trade in France, Belgium, Morocco, Algeria; I don’t have that. It will be good to see the most recent one where they beat Guinea like three-four days ago.
“If I can see something like that, it will be very good but individually I know some of them when I was Mali coach” .
The Super Eagles will slug it out with the Chaddians on Saturday, June 13, 2015 in the Group G 2017 African Cup of Nations qualifing series where they are also drawn with Egypt and Tanzania
