Rwanda-Carlos Alos Ferrer: “Not to qualify for the CAN would be a failure”
Carlos Alos Ferrer coach of Rwanda
“Monnet Paquet was supposed to come but he is injured”
What explains the absence of Kevin Monet-Paquet ?
Carlos Alos Ferrer: I had him on the phone three times. He agreed to come and play but unfortunately he was seriously injured. He is recovering little by little but he is not fit for competition.
Other countries are currently looking for dual nationals to strengthen themselves, what about Rwanda.
Carlos Alos Ferrer: We are thinking about it but it is currently difficult for the June matches. The administrative procedures do not allow us to have these players but in September, it is possible. We will have friendly matches before September to test a lot of players.
What is your goal with the Amavubi?
Carlos Alos Ferrer: The only CAN that Rwanda played was in 2004. I come to qualify this beautiful country once again for the CAN but also for the CHAN. We will do everything to score points at home and do well away from home.
We are in the same group as Senegal, champion of Africa, Mozambique and Benin. We want to qualify for CAN 2023 if we don’t succeed it’s a failure. The match against Senegal is a difficult match. It’s a team with professionals who don’t give up. They are qualified for the next World Cup because they are among the best in Africa. But in front of our spectators, nothing is impossible. Let’s be united with our team.
