"I am really delighted at the level of organisation and the high standards of football at CHAN 2016 as they have improved tremendously since the last edition in 2014.

Teams have been in high spirits and we have seen beautiful football being played with urgency making the tournament more interesting and unpredictable”

"The level of attendance has also been very encouraging as most matches have seen fully packed stadiums and that is why football becomes even better and more enjoyable” Milla told supersport.com

On who he thought would win the competition, Milla was lost for words as he said with the level of competition seen in the 2016 tournament it would be difficult to predict the winner
