“We have been able to sustain the same mood we had in camp before going for the WAFU B U20 Championship in Niamey, which we won," the coach said.
Bosso continued, "Since then, we have played a series of matches and scored plenty of goals, and that is immense for a winning mentality to stay within a team."
“However, we are not going to underrate any of our opponents. Defeating Zambia in Abuja was good for confidence but we know championship mood would be tougher," Bosso continued.
