The Home Eagles who are featuring in the Championship for the first time had a disappointing 2-1 defeat in the hands of Mali last Saturday and will be up against Mozambique in their next game tomorrow and Siasia who once played for the Super Eagles believes they can still make it despite the defeat.

“Well, I don’t want to judge them with the first game yet but with the result they recorded on Saturday, I want to believe they can do better in their second game which is against Mozambique but they need to be focused and learn from their previous game in the CHAN”, says the soccer tactician.

“They are new to the championship but I believe they can learn from that game and even do better in the subsequent games, Mozambique did not do well in their first game as well because they lost 3-1 to South Africa so I don’t expect these boys to lose again.

Samson Siasia is right because they stepped up their performance against Mozambique yesterday so the game against South Africa is now a must win.
