Rwanda Coach plot Ghana Defeat

Rwanda Under-20 head coach Obradovic Tomislav has urged the Junior Wasps to put pressure on the Black satellites in Saturday's African Youth Championship group A tie at the Amahoro stadium.

The Croat said that they will handle Ghana match with the same respect and play the same football as they did against Mali and Cameroon.

"We still have chances of reaching the semi final stage of this championship and first we must beat Ghana.

"I am confident that my boys will play an extraordinary game against the Black Satellites but we need to be focused if we are to win this game," admitted Tomislav.

"A win and a draw in the two matches we've played is a sign of the good things to come. The team played well and I'm happy with the performance and results.

"We're not there yet but I know at the end of the day, we shall qualify for the semi-final stage," he added.

Rwanda need to win against Ghana to be assured of a place not only in the semifinal but at the World Youth Championship set for Egypt.
