And
Burkina Faso coach Paul Put has played down his side’s chances in
Sunday’s crunch final saying the Burkinabes were happy enough to be just
in the final.
Meanwhile,
injured star player Alain Traore has returned to the squad to render
support to the team as they play their biggest game in the country’s
history.
Addressing
a pre-match conference here in Johannesburg, Keshi said the technical
bench will wait till Sunday morning to be certain about the availability
of the duo that has between themselves accounted for six of the Super
Eagles’ 10 goals at the tournament so far.
“We will wait until tomorrow morning to determine the availability of the two players,” said Keshi.
And Put said his team would do everything to win the trophy.
“Of
course, we will do everything but for us being in the final is already a
victory but we will do everything to bring a smile on the faces of many
Burkina people,” said Put who has struck a modest tone throughout his
side’s extra ordinary run at the finals.
Both teams had a feel of the pitch to acquaint themselves with the turf a thing that Burkina Faso never experienced at Mbombela.The match kicks off at 20:30 hours
