The coach of the Benin Squirrels, Gernot Rohr, will release the list of selected players for the match against Mozambique, scheduled for the 6th round of the CAN 2023 qualifiers, on Thursday, August 31st.
Like other African countries, Benin will return to the football pitches in September as part of the qualifiers for the CAN 2023 (postponed to 2024) in Ivory Coast. The Squirrels will face Mozambique in Maputo for the sixth round of qualifying matches. The Benin team will travel to face the Mambas on September 9th at the National Stadium in Maputo.
In preparation for this crucial match for the Beninese team, Gernot Rohr, the coach of the Squirrels, will hold a press conference on Thursday, August 31st. During this press conference, he is expected to unveil the list of players selected for this match. The Franco-German technician will have the opportunity to explain his choices for the upcoming game.
Misery for the losers… Held to a draw by Senegal (1-1) in the previous round, the Squirrels must secure a victory against the Mambas to secure their ticket for the journey to Ivory Coast.
Ranked second after their convincing victory over Rwanda (2-0) last June, the Mozambican team only needs a draw to be part of the African tournament. As a reminder, the match is scheduled for September 9, 2023, at the Estadio Nacional do Zimpeto in Maputo at 3:00 PM GMT.
