The former captain of the 1985 Golden Eaglets that won the maiden U-17 trophy in China, said that once
they had rested, then they would start to think about the preparation for Tanzania.

“The plan is to have a formidable team at the competition that can match any team. We still have a
whole lot of work to do on the players.

“The lapses we observed at the qualifiers must all be worked on, they must also be ready emotionally,
physiologically and some other situations that we will look into,’’ he said.
