Mpumalanga Black Aces and Ugandan national team goalkeeper Denis Onyango said his team will not get carried away by their great 3-0 win against Angola in the Afcon qualifier in Kampala on Saturday.
The Cranes began their journey to the 2012 Equatorial Guinea and Gabon showpiece when they beat the Black Antelopes at home to take an early lead in Group 10 that also features Kenya and Guinea-Bissau.
Speaking to KickOff.com after landing back in South Africa on Sunday, Onyango said it was important for Uganda to win all their home games in order increase their chances of qualifying for the Afcon finals.
"It is still early to rate our chances as there is still a long way to go. It was a great result but we still have to play Angola away, Guinea-Bissau who won yesterday, and a tough game against our neighbours, Kenya.
"Our aim is to win all our home games and at least two away to keep our chances high. We are highly motivated this time to do well in the tournament and there are lot of expectations and pressure from within Uganda," he adds.
