BURUNDI coach Adel Amrouche admits he is apprehensive ahead of Sunday’s 2012 Africa Nations Cup return leg qualifier against Rwanda.
The Swallows have not beaten Amavubi in the last decade and Adel admits that they need a combination of good football and luck to break the jinx.
“This is going to be a difficult game and we will treat it that way,” he said.
“Rwanda has a very good side and with so many professionals back in the team, our task has been made more difficult.”
Adel’s woes were recently compounded by the withdrawal of Amissi Tambwe (Vital’O) and LLB Academic duo of Junior Abdoulazak and Christophe Ndayishimiye.
In the first leg, Burundi lost 3-1 in Kigali.
Players in camp:
Goal Keeper: Vladimir Niyonkuru, Saeedi Nduwimana, Athanasius Nyabenda, Emery Nimubona.
