After beating Tanzania in the second leg of the U-23 African Nations Cup qualifier, Coach of the Nigeria U-23 side, Salisu Yusuf has said that the team will get better.

 

The Olympic Eagles as they are called had a one all draw in the first leg in Dar es Salaam, but got the needed victory following a two nil win on Sunday.

 

The Coach of the side said after the match that the team is a work in progress and will continue to develop.

 

"It has not been easy putting the team together. The players are good but they lacked match fitness. We had to build them to a good level. I believe the team will continue to develop. There is progress in the team."

 

On the match, Salisu disclosed that the game was not easy as it appears as his boys had to fade off the unfavourable weather and get better as the game progressed.

 

"The first half wasn't easy because of the weather. They were very compact and often hit us on the counter. Our build up was slow and we found it difficult penetrating. We had to step up our circulation and the ball moved well."

 

According to the gaffer who is also the CHAN Eagles Coach, the team's cohesiveness is not absolute, but the win was more important.

 

"It's all about team building. There was no connection at a stage. How many days did we converge? It is not easy building the team. We won the game and that's most important.

He further stated that other players will join the team in the future as there will be additions to make the group better.

Nigeria play Guinea in the next round of the AFCON qualifiers.
