National U23 Eagles assistant coach Fatai Amoo is confident the Dream Team XI will defeat Congo in their Rio 2016 Olympics qualifiers on July 19.
Amoo tells Completesportsnigeria.com on Wednesday that the players invited by chief coach, Samson Siasia, are raring to go and more importantly, are injury-free.
"The camp is bubbling. The players understand the enormous task ahead and are proving in our trainings that selection for the game will be a bit hard.
"The players are injury-free and I'm very happy about that. Congo will not be easy of course, but the players are in good shape and we are ready for the game even if it's now," Amoo states.
Meanwhile team's media officer, Timi Ebikagboro adds that the team will be trimmed next week when some players will be decamped.
Congo will be led on the dugout by wily coach, Claude Leroy who has tremendous knowledge of African football.
The game will be played at the Liberation Stadium, Port Harcourt.
