FIFA 2018 World Cup qualifiers: Togo Vs Uganda (First Leg in Lome)
Uganda Cranes head coach, Milutin ‘Micho’ Sredojevic has clearly outlined the need for progress to the FIFA 2018 world cup qualification groups ahead of the first leg with Togo come November 2015.
In an exclusive interview with Kawowo Sports, Micho hints of revenge spiced up with action; “People will speak of revenge against Togo but nobody has ever revenged by words we need actions to put in practice what our intentions and dreams are.”
Uganda drew Togo as their second round opponent with the winner over the two legs making it to the group stages which Micho believes has been the norm for Uganda in many world cup campaigns.
“It could be worst it could be better. Anyhow there is too much at stake as we have made our supporters used to be in group stages therefore our ultimate target is to go to the group stages.”
The Serbian born tactician believes making the group stages is a dream achievable more so when the Cranes plan for a build up game against a side with similar French influence as Togo before the November leg.
“We need to use time until November to develop our game trough away match against Comoros to use October Fifa days appropriately by playing friendly match against team with similar French influence like Togo and be ready for November back to back qualifiers.”
The Cranes have a cross section of matches lined up in the AFCON 2017, CHAN 2016 qualifiers and the upcoming CECAFA senior challenge cup.
Micho rallies for support from all angles as regards Cranes positive performance home and away. “With support of all stakeholders we can go all the way in all competitions lifting our football where our supporters dream to be amongst the best in Africa,” Micho believes.
