Rwanda coach, fans celebrate draw with Eagles

Rwanda coach, Serbian Milutin ‘Micho’ Sredrojevic, was full of joy and excitement after the Amavubi Stars held the Super Eagles to a goalless draw at the Stade Regionale in Kigali on Wednesday.

Sredrojevic, who was full of respect for the Eagles, said after the game that he still holds Nigeria in high esteem but was slightly surprised that the array of stars paraded by Nigeria could not get the three points at stake from his team.

Rwandan fans and journalists were also full of praises for their team, with one of them describing the Nigerian side as a sleeping giant when he poked a question at Eagles boss, Stephen Keshi. Keshi, however, promised to wake his ‘giants’ from sleep in subsequent games.
