The goalkeepers made the promise in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Thursday at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA), Lagos, before their departure.
They said that the team had prepared well for victory in the first leg of their preliminaries encounter in the Burundian capital.
“We are doing well in the league table; we are in the first position and this has given us the much needed confidence to go to Burundi and win,’’ Vanzekin said.
“Ours is to go and come back victorious because I believe we will beat them,’’ Agbim said.
The Team Media Manager, Timi Ebikagboro, said that the team would not underrate their opponents.
“We will give Nigerians the best and that is an away victory,’’ Ebikagboro said.
NAN reports that the team arrived at the airport at about 7.30 p.m. on Thursday a luxury bus and left aboard a Kenya Airways flight.
Other teams for the championship are the Egypt’s Petrojet FC, FC Amal of Sudan, Baraka FC of Guinea, Central Parade of Sierra Leone and Lengthens of Zimbabwe.
