Black Princesses Coach Yusif Basigi to use Algeria game as warm up

Published on: 26 September 2017

Head Coach of the female under-20 team, the Black Princesses, Yusif Basigi wants to use the second leg game against Algeria, in the World Cup qualifiers as a preparation for the next hurdle, which could be against Ethiopia or Kenya.

The Black Princesses beat Algeria 5-0 in Algiers, making the return fixture a mere formality as Algeria will need to beat Ghana 6-0 to progress.

Basigi, who is positive going into the game wants to give opportunity to some of the players who couldn’t not feature in Algeria.

“For me I don’t see the match as over, we still have some hurdles to clearand for that matter we need to focus and use that match as a preparatory game ahead of the game against Ethiopia or Kenya,” he said.

“I’m still going all but what I will do is there are some who dint start in the first leg or came in late, I will start or bring them on earlier to see if they can be good replacements for the starting line-up’” he added.

The Black Princesses will host their counterparts from Algeria this weekend at the Cape Coast Stadium.
