We don't fear anyone - Senegal U20 coach

Senegal under-20 coach Joseph Koto believes Saturday's win over Ghana puts his side in pole position to reach the 2017 Under-20 Africa Cup of Nations.

The coach is in confident mood after watching his team record a 3-1 victory in the final round first leg encounter at the Demba Diop Stadium, Dakar.

"It's a good result but nothing is done in the direction of qualification," Koto told Cafonline.com.

"We will start the second leg as if it was 0-0 in the first leg.

"It is a welcome serenity for what the players showed throughout the game.

"They did not panic despite the quality of the opponent, [who are] known for [their] strength in youth football.

"We will go to Ghana and look for a positive result. With the team we have, we fear no one."

Ghana host the second encounter in a fortnight, with the winner joining six other teams, together with host Zambia, for the final championship next year.
