Speaking on the Black Galaxies chances ahead of the tournament, Coach Karim Zito said,
“Currently there are no minnows in Africa football.” The names don’t work again. “The face is changing gradually, but on paper, i will take Ghana and Morocco,” he stated.
Coach Zito however admitted he will be expecting tougher competition from Sudan,holders Morocco and Madagascar,but he is confident in his boys and technical team, “It’s not easy when we face Sudan, but for now, Morocco becoming the best four in the world can motivate them.” Looking at Ghana, the match they played against Egypt, looking at the performance they put up. I trust we have a good team, a technical team, who can take us to good places. “For me, i know we will qualify with Morocco,” he added.
