Emmanuel Amuneke has restated his confidence in Tanzania’s chances at the 2019 AFCON, 39 years since they last appeared in the final tournament.
The Taifa Stars are drawn in a tough first round group with Algeria, Senegal and Kenya.
They lost 1-0 to hosts Egypt, before they held Zimbabwe to a 1-1 draw in warm-up games leading up to their return to the biggest stage of African football.
“We will give it our best shot,” promised Amuneke.
“It will be an interesting and open tournament.
“We have had a very good preparation, which ended with our last friendly against Zimbabwe.
“We used this match to test other players in the squad. It was a good game against Zimbabwe.”
Tanzania begin their campaign on Sunday against Senegal.
