Russia 2018 | Micho Warns His Boys Against Complacence, Togo Arrives:

Uganda Cranes coach, Milutin ‘Micho‘ Sredojevic has appreciated the great display from the team in the 1-0 away victory to Togo in the first leg of 2018 FIFA World Cup second round qualifier.

The coach has however quickly called upon the players not to get carried away by the slim first leg result but rather consolidate on the away performance and finish the job on home turf.

It was a great performance away from home. I commend the spirit of the players and every other person whose work cannot be under-looked. I however challenge the players to finish the job on Sunday during the return leg as we look towards the up-coming group stage level.

Both teams (Uganda and Togo) arrived in Uganda on Thursday with the Cranes the first to arrive at 2:30 PM via a chartered flight by President Yoweri Museveni Kaguta and Togo coming later at 11 PM aboard Ethiopian Airlines.

Uganda won the first leg at the Stade De Kegue 1-0 courtesy of Farouk Miya’s diverted 40^th minute free-kick.

The Winner between both sides will advance to the group stage ranking.

Meanwhile, police through senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Muzafaru Ziraba Muzaale, has assured the football fans of maximum security during the return leg of the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifier between Uganda and Togo at Nelson Mandela National stadium, Namboole.

Ziraba Muzaale who was addressing the media at the FUFA weekly press conference in Mengo on Friday at FUFA house said,

“I assure the football fans that we have organized enough security personnel to handle the crowds that are expected to grace the match. I urge fans to first ensure early access to the stadium. Do not carry shape objects to the stadium. Do not carry political placards nor use the match as a political campaign plat-form”.
