Our Spain-like game will prevail against Nigeria: Ethiopia Coach
Ethiopia's coach believes that his players' passing game will
give them the upper hand in their confrontation with African Champions
Nigeria in the World Cup playoffs.
"I
feel confident that our passing game will make the difference when we
play the Nigerians. It will be tough, but our great passing game, which
is like that of the world champions Spain, will give us the needed
victory," Sewnet Bishaw told the Ethiopian Herald.
The Ethiopians
made a splash in 2013 after reaching the African Cup of Nations finals
for the first time since 1982. They have now reached the playoffs of the
World Cup 2014.
Ethiopia are trying to emulate the Barcelona and Spain short passing style to keep control of the game's rhythm.
"We
can do what Spain did against the Nigerians. We showed glimpses of that
when we met them at the Africa Cup of Nations," Bishaw added.
Ethiopia will host the Nigerian Super Eagles on Sunday at 13:00GMT.
"I
feel confident that our passing game will make the difference when we
play the Nigerians. It will be tough, but our great passing game, which
is like that of the world champions Spain, will give us the needed
victory," Sewnet Bishaw told the Ethiopian Herald.
