HEAD coach of the National Team of Swaziland, Harries Bulunga has affirmed that his side nicknamed Si­hlangu Somnikati, will leave nothing to chance in their match against the Super Eagles of Nigeria in Port-Har­court, stressing that his side will shock Eagles to gain a place in the final qual­ification round for Russia 2018.
On arrival in Port Harcourt on Sun­day morning, Sihlangu’s Coach, Har­ries Bulunga, reiterated the position he held after the first leg in Lobamba on Friday. “We held our own very well in the first leg and we will go for broke on Tuesday.”
The Sihlangu were hoping to take the Eagles by surprise and create one of the biggest surprises in international football, but Eagles Coach, Sunday Oliseh expressed confidence in his boys to “do the job tomorrow and get Nigeria into the group stage.”
He insisted it will go on the of­fensive when the referee’s whistle sounds for kick –off of Tuesday’s 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifier.
Namibian official, Jackson Pavaza would be the referee for the game that will hold at the 40,000 –capacity Adokiye Amiesiamaka Stadium, Port Harcourt.
Both teams finished the open­ing leg scoreless as the Sihlangu stifled the Eagles on artificial turf. Bulunga will depend largely on the speed of team captain Tony Tsabedze on the counter, as well as foot works of Siyabonga Md­luli, Mthunzi Mkhontfo, Mcolisi Lukhele, Felix Badenhorst, Saneli­so Dlamini, Menzi Sithole and Sa­belo Ndzinisa.
