“This tournament is a bit tricky but this is the game we had to get a result because I also rested my key players because I trust every player,” Mayanja was quoted by CAFonline.
“Since that, we have qualified, now we’re planning for the next one so that we can qualify for the next stage.”
While Jackson Mayanja was fulfilling his post-match media duties the drawing of lots was taking place in Cairo but the former El Masry man wasn’t too concerned about the draw.
“There’s nothing much I can say about the drawing of lots. I’m not a coach who has pressure,” he said.
“This is what I was looking at whether I am first or second but I have qualified that is the most important.
“My goal here in this tournament is to take this team to the World Cup.
“That’s why I give a chance to every player of mine to express himself, to express talent.”
