The friendly match serves as a preparatory ground for the satellites to qualify to the African Championships to be played in Zambia next year.

In an interview with Sportscrusader.com Mr Diara said, “we are expecting massive support ahead of Friday’s game, we have made it a major priority to give equal attention to all national teams so that we can win more honours for the country”.

The Young Indomitable Lions have already arrived in the country and will spend some few days in Ghana on a training tour.
