Ahead of the clash against Nigeria, the U-20 team of Uganda Coach has stated that his team will focus on their tactical strength rather than the Nigerian team, Nigeriasoccernet.com reports.

Coach Jackson Mayanja is not allowing himself carried away with their opponents, Nigeria in their Thursday's clash in the U-20 African Cup of Nations quarter final.

“I don’t need to know so much about Nigeria even if you go out and look around every player but football is about what you think in the tactical part of it so we’re trying to put ourselves in a very good tactical position.

“Nigeria is a good team. It’s going to be a very hard game but I think as I said, the achievement we need is tomorrow, that’s what we want to achieve.

“I don’t want to talk about Nigeria. The game is to be played on the pitch tomorrow”, he said.

The two nations knock horns for a place in the semi finals and a world cup qualification berth at the Suez Canal Authority Stadium in Ismailia.
