2019 AFCON qualifiers: Libya accuses Super Eagles of using ‘juju’
Coach of the Libyan national team, Adel Amrouche, is confident his team will be well prepared to face the Super Eagles, when both sides clash in a 2019 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier next month in Nigeria.
Amrouche’s side currently lead Group E with four points from two games, following a 0-0 draw with South Africa at the Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban on Saturday.
Libya had defeated Seychelles 5-1 in their opening group game 14 months ago.
“When we’re back home we’ll find a DVD and see what happened. I brought something new, it’s not easy.
“Believe me, I would rather play Nigeria than Bafana, because I have experince playing against Nigeria and for me Bafana have fantastic players and its not easy playing South Africa.
“For me, I’m ready for Nigeria. If they want to play the two games in Nigeria it’s ok. If they (Nigeria) believe on juju too much or God, but its not easy to play South Africa. I stayed long night thinking of how to stop Percy Tau, Keagan Dolly, Vilakazi and Vincent Pule and those that did not play today,” Amrouche revealed in his post match interview after the game against Bafana Bafana on Saturday.
