Guinea-Bissau forward Carlos Mane, in the pre-match press conference, has revealed why it is important for the team to defeat the Super Eagles of Nigeria in the final match of the group stage at AFCON 2023.
The pre-match press conference held by Guinea Bissau on Sunday, January 21, 2024, showed the squad's mentality ahead of their final game in the group stage of AFCON 2023 in Ivory Coast. Guinea Bissau since the commencement of the competition has failed to pick up key points and suffered huge defeats in the hands of the hosts, Ivory Coast and another group-stage country, Equatorial Guinea.
Carlos Mane, a forward for Guinea Bissau, has revealed that the squad is poised and training so hard to cut the party and excitement of the Super Eagles of Nigeria short at AFCON 2023. It is no surprise that Guinea Bissau has expressed this level of confidence as the country is known to be torn in the flesh of the Super Eagles of Nigeria in a competitive fixture.
Mane said, "We want to play for pride, for our country and family. We want to finish the tournament with point(s) and we want to win tomorrow. I know the Super Eagles coach (Jose Peseiro), we have worked together, he is a very good coach but we are going to give our best tomorrow."
