The president then advised Micho on which tactics to use if they are to win the game:

Museveni to MICHO: Our boys need to position well during corner kicks because in the games against Ethiopia and Ghana, we got two goals from such set pieces. Also, don’t panic.Don’t play under any pressure. Ugandans are proud of you. Qualify and be part of history.
