As the countdown to the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) continues, the head coach of Uganda, Paul Put, has spoken highly of the Super Eagles of Nigeria, describing them as one of the most dangerous teams in Africa.
Uganda will face Nigeria, Tunisia, and Tanzania in Group C, with their final group match against the three-time African champions taking place at the Fez Stadium.
Speaking to CAF’s official website, the Belgian tactician said Nigeria is a football powerhouse filled with top-quality players and European experience.
“Nigeria is a perennial powerhouse. There are threats everywhere from their squad with top talent and European experience,” Put said.
He also praised Tunisia for being a very organised side and described Tanzania as a team full of energy and familiarity.
However, the Uganda coach made it clear that his team will respect every opponent but will not play with fear.
“We will respect all of them, but we are not intimidated. We will give a good account of ourselves,” he added confidently.
