Flying Eagles head coach Ladan Bosso is confident that his team will secure maximum points against Italy in Wednesday's Group D clash at the 2023 FIFA U-20 World Cup.

Bosso said that his players are "fitter" than the Italians who are first in the group on goal difference.

“We watched the Italy vs Brazil match. Tactically, Brazil was the better team and also the fitter team because, in the second half, Italy lost gas (and conceded two late goals),” Bosso told a press conference on Tuesday.

“We’re fitter than both of them.”

He acknowledged that his team's victory against the Dominican Republic was a good way to start their campaign while urging them to produce a better showing against Italy.

"We got the three points, that’s most important,” he said.

“Now we hope to put up a better performance against Italy.”
