“We have done the needful; we train as expected of every hardworking team to blend for good results.

“The team is up and doing and I am confident that they are in form and on top of their game to play matches satisfactorily in CHAN,” Yusuf said.

The coach noted that his players had always worked as a team, which had resulted in successful outings in both the qualifications and preparations.

According to him, “we have left no stone unturned because we want to have the best in the tournament.”

Yusuf, who expressed optimism in the ability of his team to lift the trophy, restated that they were ready for CHAN.
