By Our ReporterTUNISIAN Coach, Hatem Missaoui down played Chisom Chikatara’s last performance and all the transfer speculation surrounding the Abia Warriors player.
“We have a defence that doesn’t concentrate on one player but how the team tries to attack us,” Missaou said at a press conference yesterday.
“Chikatara is a good player but we have a job to do today not to lose against Nigeria and try to pick points because we need to qualify for the quarterfinals.”
“And while Chikatara scored three, Ahmed Akaichi scored two for us against Niger so we will see how they perform against each other,” he added.
The Home-Based Eagles star is the first player to score a hat-trick in the 2016 African Nations Championship (CHAN) in Rwanda and also top scorer with 3 goals.
Nigeria who tops Group C with 3points needs a win to join host Rwanda and Congo DR in the quarter-final.
