I have the experience to play against Nigeria, boasts Libya’s Adel Amrouche

Libya coach Adel Amrouche says he has ‘experience to play’ against Nigeria ahead of next month’s two-legged 2019 Africa Cup of Nations qualification clash.

The Mediterranean Knights held South Africa to a 0-0 draw in Saturday’s encounter in Durban as they stayed put on the top of Group E after garnering four points from two games.

With the Super Eagles’ next up, the tactician is unmoved about the pedigree of the three-time African champions as he is confident that his side will silence Gernot Rohr’s side in October.

“Believe me I prefer to play Nigeria than South Africa because I have the experience to play against them,” Amroache told media.  

“South Africa is a fantastic team and have fantastic players and it’s not easy to play against them.

“For me, I’m ready for Nigeria; if they want we can play both games in Nigeria; they believe in juju and we believe in God.”
