KAMPALA, Feb. 9 (Xinhua) -- URA's coach Frank Anyau is confident that the east African side can score at lease four goals on Saturday to advance in the MTN Confederation of African Football (CAF) Champions League.

"Everybody in my team is going to attack. We lost as a team and we are going to aggressively look for goals as a team," said Anyau, ahead of the return leg against Cameroon champions Cotton Sport slated for Saturday in Kampala.

"We will raid them throughout the 90 minutes. We won't stop scoring even when we exceed our target," warned the Ugandan coach.

Anyau noted that "the current attitude of the players is just superb", which have given him the utmost confidence to dispel any queries about URA's chances in the game to be played at the Namboole National Stadium.

The Ugandan representatives in the lucrative CAF Champions League lost 0-3 to Cameroon a fortnight ago and would be facing an uphill task if they are to overturn a 3 goal deficit on Saturday.

Meanwhile, the tactician commented about the confirmed CAF suspension of three key players for beating up a referee in Cameroon, believing it will not affect his team's performance.

"I have very many options. I have two full teams to pick from so there is no worry at all. We have got the feel of the stadium, we will return on Saturday to revenge," Anyau remarked.
