Football : Swaziland confident over away win

Abuja - The Senior National Team of Swaziland,
nicknamed the Sihlangu Semnikati, insists it will go on
the offensive when the referee’s whistle sounds for
kick –off of Tuesday’s 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifier
against the Super Eagles of Nigeria.
Namibian official Jackson Pavaza will be the referee
for the game that will hold at the 40,000 –capacity
Adokiye Amiesiamaka Stadium, Port Harcourt.
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 are hoping to take the Eagles by surprise
and create one of the biggest surprises in international
football, but Eagles Coach Sunday Oliseh has
expressed confidence in his boys to “do the job on
Tuesday and get us into the group stage.”
Both teams finished the opening leg scoreless as the
Sihlangu stifled the Eagles on the artificial turf of the
poorly –lit Somhlolo National Stadium in Lobamba.
Bulunga will depend largely on the speed of team
captain Tony Tsabedze on the counter, as well as
footworks of Siyabonga Mdluli, Mthunzi Mkhontfo,
Mcolisi Lukhele, Felix Badenhorst, Saneliso Dlamini,
Menzi Sithole and Sabelo Ndzinisa.
