Four goal hero and
Super Eagles forward, Chisom Chikatara has said the Syli Nationale of
Guinea will not halt Eagles dream for quarterfinals berth at the ongoing
African Nations Championship (CHAN) in Rwanda. Eagles will clash with
their West African opposite, Guinea in tomorrow's last group game at the
Stade Umuganda Rubavu, Gisenyi.
The Eagles lead the
pack in Group C on four points, two points ahead of Guinea and Tunisia.
The outcome of the group's matches will determine qualifiers for the
last eight. Chikatara said though Eagles do not see the clash against
Guinea as a must win they will fight hard to finish the group campaign
on high. "Guinea cannot stop us from booking our safe passage to the
quarter-finals of the championship on Tuesday.
"Though we do not
see the match as a must win, we have however told ourselves we must
finish on high the group race. "Understandably, Guinea will come out
tough aimed at chalking the points that will see them progress to the
last eight but we will not allow them the luxury.
"We have already
steeled ourselves for whatever banter Guinea will come up with same way
we handled the Nigeriens and Tunisians. "Tunisians were the toughest so
far in the championship but we ended the clash with our shoulders held
high.
