Chipolopolo head coach, Wedson Nyirenda has said it’s not going to be easy to have an Algeria’s sculp in their own backyard, when the two sides face off in the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.
The coach was speaking in a pre match reaction of the tie, set for Tuesday in Constantine, Algeria.
“It is not going to be easy, Algeria will be at home. They are a big team and we respect them for that,” said Nyirenda.
Another concern for Nyirenda is fatigue of his players, who immediately after a 3-1 win over Algeria on Saturday started off to Constantine.
“Preparations like in such a manner where we just played a game and started off, in two days time we have to play again, the games are very tricky,” he said.
The Chipolopolo boys with 4 points should win to keep up the pace with Group B leaders, Nigeria on 10 points.
Meanwhile, African Champions, Cameroon were yesterday eliminated out of the race to the Russia World Cup after sharing the spoils with Nigeria 1-1.
