Cranes first choice custodian Dennis Onyango believes the Cranes must ignore the past failures to qualify for the Africa Cup of Nations finals or the World Cup and focus on the mission at hand.
“It was painful to us as players and our fans when we failed to qualify last time. We don’t need to continue lamenting but focus on the current campaign, God will answer our players” said a visibly concerned Onyango.
Onyango has promised to offer his best when granted an opportunity to stand between posts in Luanda on Sunday. There are all signs that Onyango will be Bobby’s first choice in goal and when this happens, the player will fight harder to avoid a humiliation by the Angolans. Last year, the Cranes lost 2-0 to Angola.
He refuted claims that his irregular appearance for his side in South Africa would affect his performance against the hosts.
The team flies out of the country Friday morning.
