“It will be a very tough match, but we have everything to play for, and they [Cameroon] have everything to lose," Cheche told Mozzart Sports.
Reflecting on the narrow defeat, the former Police coach said: "We are going all out, and you could see in the second half how they performed“

"Psychologically, we have to instill a lot of mental toughness, a lot of fighting spirit. They already have it, but we have to enhance our speed, utilise our strengths, and try to score an early goal to bring us back into the game.”
The Junior Starlets must beat Cameroon by a two-goal margin to book a slot for the Morocco show in a bid to repeat their heroics and return to the World Cup which they graced last year.
The defeat against Cameroon was Junior Starlets' first in nine matches, and the side must regroup and put their act together to realise their dream.

"For most of the players, they've never been in a situation where we are trailing. Some of them were surprised, under a lot of pressure,” Cheche highlighted.
“So, going into the second leg, we have a lot to do, a lot of things to change, and also things to encourage them with.”
The Starlets have enough arsenals to silence Cameroon at their backyard.
