Senegal U-20 head coach, Serigne Saliou Dia says his team is battle ready for the quarter-final fixture against Nigeria.
The holders will be up against Nigeria at the Suez Canal Stadium, Ismailia on Monday.
The winner will not only secure a place in the semi-final but also qualify for the 2025 Africa U-20 Cup of Nations in Chile.
Senegal scrapped through the group stage with one win, one draw and one defeat from three games.
Dia, however, said his players have found their souls and are ready for battle against Nigeria.
“This is a clash of football DNA,” Dia told the Confederation of African Football, CAF, official website.
“Two teams built on intensity, pride, and direct play. But this time, we want to write our own version of the story.”
