”We are vigorously preparing for our next match against Djibouti. We don’t know much about our opponent but with preparation we can face any side, so we not living any chances but we are going all out,” he told Oman FM

“Playing the away game first is certainly an advantage but it goes down to how you prepare and we still have to prepare over ourselves regardless of whether they are an average or good side,” he added.
