Big Size aka Moses Sali has wished the Uganda Cranes the best of luck in today’s game as they take on Togo in the return leg of the 2015 AFCON qualifiers on match day four. The Cranes ambassador, Bebe Cool passed on his wishes to the team over phone through the Cranes Media consultant, Katende Malibu.
Bebe Cool also talked to the team captain Geoffrey Masa who will be holding the armband on behalf of Andrew Mwesigwa who will not feature in today’s clash.
“I believe in the boys. Let them treat this match like a cup final and give in 100%. They need to keep away from the pressure and concentrate on the game for 90 minutes,” reads a statement on the federation’s website.
Surely the Cranes who have never won a game against Togo will need luck to pick a point from the Sparrow Hawks today at the Stade De Kugue stadium. Uganda has lost 3 games and drawn two in their 5 ties that they have played against Togo.
