Super Sand Eagles coach, Audu Adamu Ejo, is not afraid of meeting any team in Seychelles when the African Beach Soccer Championship commences.
Nigeria will face the hosts in the opening match at the Roche Caiman Sports Complex, Victoria on Tuesday.
And Ejo is fully ready for the clash and subsequent ones.
“We have prepared very well for this championship, with the support of the Nigeria Football Federation,” he told thenff.com.

“The Power Horse invitational tournament in Durban early March was a good competition for us; it helped us to identify weak points and our areas of strength.
“We have played all the teams that are here at one time or the other, so none is strange to us. We are fit and confident, and we believe we can go all the way.”
The Eagles will play Egypt and Cote d’Ivoire in their other Group A games.
