CHAN 2016: Tunisia should be wary of Eagles threat - Aggreh



Nigeria’s Prince Aggreh has warned Henryk Kasperczak and
Tunisia that they should be wary of the Super Eagles in
Friday’s meeting at the Stade RĂ©gional Nyamirambo despite
winning the championship once.

The Super Eagles spanked Niger Republic 4-1 in their first
match while the Carthage Eagles were forced to a 2-2 draw
by Guinea.

And though the stylish forward recognises the north
Africans will prove a tough test as they chase their first win
in Rwanda, he feels his side’s team spirit and hunger for
success is enough to strike fear into any opponent.

“"They should be scared of us," Aggreh, who tormented
Niger’s defenders on Monday told Goal.

“We have nothing to panic about. Our match against Tunisia
is like any other game and we will approach it with
maximum concentration and determination.

“Winning the tournament before us makes no difference
because we are here [in Rwanda] for a purpose and they
won’t stop us achieving team.

Aggreh is one of the five Sunshine players in Sunday
Oliseh’s team and he feels that has helped him build his
confidence because of his closeness to them.

“Having them [Ikechukwu Ezenwa, Eze Stephen, Paul Onobi
& Tunde Adeniji] in the starting XI makes me feel good
because we know ourselves very well,” he continued.

“We play for the same team, know ourselves and have been
staying together for over a long time. That has really helped
because we understand ourselves perfectly on the field
which is good for the team.

“Also, coach Oliseh has been helpful too because of his
useful piece of advice all the time, and we can only hope we
bring the trophy back to Nigerians,” he concluded.

A win for Nigeria against Tunisia on Friday will see them
book an early flight to the quarter finals where they face
Zambia, Mali, Zimbabwe or Uganda.
