We hope to explore Nigeria’s weaknesses on
Saturday, says Malawi trainer Saintfiet

The Belgian has stated that it will take a miracle for
the Flames to defeat the more established Super
Eagles in Calabar but they are willing to take their
chances
Malawi technical adviser Tom Saintfiet has said his
team will go into Saturday's 2014 World Cup
qualifier against Nigeria as underdogs.
The Belgian also declared that his team will expect
a miracle to happen in order to beat the African
champions.
Saintfiet spoke to the media at the Nnamdi Azikiwe
Airport, Abuja as his team boarded their Arik Air
flight to Calabar on Thursday afternoon.
The flight was however delayed for almost two
hours due to visibility problems.
"I am very satisfied with my squad,” Saintfiet said.
“The present team is full of young players who are
ready to play in the tactical way we want them to
play. Every team needs a bit of luck. The team is
ready to play and I think we can recover from the
flight in the next 48 hours.
"The match against the Super Eagles is not do or
die affair for us. We have prepared well for this
match and have an equal chance of winning the
game. I believe the pressure is on Nigeria. But we
will try and surprise everybody by playing a great
game against Nigeria on Saturday.
"Nigeria are the champions of Africa. They are a
very strong squad selected by coach Stephen
Keshi. He selected a very strong team comprising
of good players from Europe and local based
players too. It is going to be very difficult for us.
The Nigerian team has a lot of strength and quality
in front of goal and are very good in the air and
they can score from set pieces too.
"Despite this, the Nigerian team also has some
weaknesses and we are going to use that against
them,” Saintfiet disclosed.
