The Sand Lions are currently in Guinea where they will play the first leg of the CAN 2024 Egypt qualifiers on Sunday at 4pm, and during a press conference, coach Ngalla Sylla and captain Al Seyni Ndiaye announced the team colours.
Guinea vs Senegal is the most anticipated derby between the two neighbouring countries in the football world. Today, the same passion it arouses on the lawn is likely to be transferred to the Camayenne beach in Conakry. This will be the first time that the two will participate in a beach soccer match.
Arsene N’Diaye and his teammates, who have been on the road since Friday evening, had their temperatures taken and for the captain, talking about disappointment with the game was not on the agenda. “As we always say, in Africa, there are no small teams. Admittedly, this will be the first time that Guinea will participate, but it is a team with many personalities. We cannot imagine losing this game, we are here to win. We will play with great determination and resolve and will not underestimate our opponents. We respect Guinea,” he declared to the press yesterday.
Head coach Ngala Sylla, who returned to the Senegal pitch, called for fair competition in the match. “We want to see a fair match where the best side wins. Senegal is really the best country in African beach soccer, but we are in a transition phase. Hopefully tomorrow’s match will keep us on the right path. This is a new group I am preparing. We can’t say too much about the opponent because he is an unknown. What we do know is that the players of Guinea and Senegal are almost identical in terms of technique and tactics.”
The game will start at 4 pm.
