ABIDJAN- Before welcoming Ethiopia last Saturday, October 12, 2024 for the third day of qualifying for CAN 2025, national coach Michel Dussuyer addressed the media for the traditional pre-match press conference.
Returning to Syli’s bench after almost ten years since his departure, the French technician measures the size of the task that awaits the Guineans this Saturday. It’s simple, to continue feeding the hope of going to CAN 2025, we need to stock up on 6 points during this international break. And Michel Dussuyer and his group are well aware of this.
“I don’t consider myself a savior far from it, I consider myself someone who is connected to this national team, to Guinea. The whole group is doing well and feeling good. I really want to take on this challenge which is close to my heart and it is very encouraging for me. It’s true that things were a little different at the beginning, but being back with the team like this gives me a lot of energy. Our destiny is still in our hands. We just have to focus on success. We are under pressure, because there is a victory to be won “He announced at a press conference.
For his part, the Ethiopian coach believes that his team will take at least 4 points in this double clash against Syli. For him, although he respects the Guineans, he will achieve the goal of winning to stay in the qualification race.
