Tanzanian coach Emmanuel Amuneke says his outfit will give their best in the upcoming 2019 Africa Cup of Nations to be staged in Egypt.
The former Nigeria assistant coach guided the Taifa Stars to their first Nations Cup in 39 years and have placed 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,” said 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," he added.
Tanzania begin their campaign on Sunday against Senegal.
