Upon arriving in Algeria, the coach of the South Africa U17 team Duncan Crowie said they are in Algeria to upstage Nigeria’s Golden Eaglets and others in their group.
The Amajimbos who have a Nigeria-origin player Dokunmu in their team will play Morocco in their opening group match before facing the 5-time world Champion Nigeria in the second match.
Duncan said they are in Algeria for two objectives to qualify for the semi-final to reach the World Cup and to win the title.
” We are looking forward to the next two weeks here or stay as long as we can, possibly till the last day of the tournament, so we are ready for Nigeria and others.
“Like everyone else in this competition, we want to go as far as we can. Two objectives of course, the first one is reaching the semi-finals which will allow us to qualify for the World Cup and to go all the way [to the final]”, he said.
