“A win in a tournament opener is very important. It sets the mood for the players and fans especially when you are playing at home.“We are hoping to build on the win going forward, although every match is unique in it’s own way,” Put offered.
“We are out to redeem ourselves after failing to qualify for Chan 2018, even after the playoff against Rwanda.“We therefore must start off well. South Sudan players are very tall, and quite rough, so we have to be careful to avoid being lost in our game,” said the former Ethiopia skipper.
