So this week you can fix a friendly match. May 04 we start.
Brana promised to send me his interview tomorrow, so Nigeria shortly coming.
Inteview with Braña the NT Coach of Nigeria:
1. Can you tell us something about you in the real life? As I see an experienced coach can lead the Nigerian NT. So many seasons ago you were NT Coach at your home team at the U21 and at Seniors too. You was the World Champion with the Spanish U21 one time. Why you choosed Nigeria what was your main reason?
Braña: Hello, my name is Braña, I am 50 years old, I really like soccer, movies and series, video games and social networks. And I really like the sea. I chose Nigeria because I see a lot of potential in this country. I think it can become a reference country in Africa.
2. Can you speak something about your country, where you leave in Spain, what can a foreginer can't know something special, or somthing secret?
Braña: I live in Donosti, a city in the north of Spain. My country is very beautiful and we like hospitality. Here we have the best climate in the world and the best gastronomy. He who comes to Spain repeats. I recommend you visit the north, the east and Andalusia. Spain is a European country but it lives both day and night. We really like to enjoy life and we are very familiar and very good friends with our friends. As a Latin country par excellence, we like warmth and closeness.
3. Really hard to win at Nigeria without votes, but I would ask it would be a long term work here or a short term?
Braña: My idea is to work more seasons in Nigeria. I think it has a lot of future. Everything will depend on what the votes say.
4. How you feel Nigeria in the future? Nigeria have in a big crisis. If I see a calculated squad. I see so many players who U26 play at bot teams haven't chance to train. Only maybe 6 players can have chance become to reach higher level. Did you scouted the younger player from the U21 generation, who can be world class level? Could you tell me some names? I know the one of them the virtual Okocha (Balarabe Okocha)
Braña: Nigeria is a country that needs native managers to develop its national team, because the current base of the senior team are players who play in clubs outside Nigeria. The starting team has a good level but currently has shortcomings that should be resolved in the future. Everything happens because Nigerian managers bet on their youth teams and train them or sell the best youth players to be trained outside the country.
At the moment I have not been able to keep track of the Nigerian U21 but it is a job that I have pending because those players are the basis of the senior team.
5. What is your plan in the African Cup how you feel your chances?
Braña: In theory, Nigeria is the weakest team in Africa, but I prefer to go game by game and trust the best selection of players in each game according to their skills and other indicators. I have confidence in my players. Maybe we will surprise in this cup. Hopefully.
6. What is Nigeria strong point and weak point?
Braña: Their strong point: the players. His weak point: tactics.
7. Could you tell me something about your rival teams and managers, what do you expext from them about tactics for example?
Braña: At the moment I can't tell you much about my rivals. I think the cards are still on the table and face down and they are still freshly dealt.
8. Who can be your biggest opponent or the manager you fear?
Braña: Well, I fear all rivals. We have great respect for each and every African country that plays in this cup. The theory says that Senegal is the strongest country but I want to see it with facts.
9. If you need to bet, who will get the gold, silver and the bronze medal in the African Cup?
Braña; If I have to bet and without still having enough elements:
Gold: Senegal.
Silver: Misr
Bronze: Kenya.
10. If you need to lead a country in the future which country would be attractive for you?
Braña: Kenya.
11. Who is your favourite african player and team in the real life?
Braña: Sadio Mané & Nigeria
12. Did you follow the last African Cup in the real life in 2024? What is your opinion about that, if you saw it?
Braña: I couldn't follow the last African Cup in real life.
ANALYSES
Nigeria
As Nigeria had a fantastic football generation in IRL, we can say, we wait for this in the sokker. Nigeria in crysis. There have youth scools, but my experience maybe the home managers maybe don't work with the best yout coaches. When I looked for so many Nigerian youthes and wanted to train, I really rarely find enough good... Big problem only 6-7 players get training between the 23-27 age players, if I see the calculated squad and so many players about middle ages players at bot teams. I can say and hope the things changes. Nigeria had a really big problem to get score, they didn't get a score in the WCQ. Their supporters in the sokker can dream they can reach better and narrow matches in the AFCON. Their home manager banned, now Braña won the election and he will lead this team in the African Cup. Lower you can check Braña NT history. He is an experienced NT Coach, who won a World Cup with U21 Spain one time.

Well, I don't know Tunis will to send me an interview or no, but I will make an analyse about them.
Senegal coming now, but I won't speak with myself, so I take only an analyse without report.
Senegal coming now, but I won't speak with myself, so I take only an analyse without report.
Senegal coming!
It wasn't an easy group if we see it first. But if we see Senegal second match were against Hungary and Bosna was without NT Coaches it is easier maybe. Senegal mostly played a risky tactic, with 4 defenders, but sometimes they palyed with 5 defenders. They didn't got a big defeats, every match were opened against higher rated teams. Maybe except their last match, were at 1-1, they got a red card with a penalty, after then they crashed...
