Cape Verde coach, Bubista has hailed his team following their qualification to the knockout stages of the TotalEnergies Caf Africa Cup of Nations Côte d’Ivoire 2024.
They defeated Mozambique 3-0 on Friday afternoon at the stade Félix Houphouët Boigny in Abidjan to book the qualification. Bubista explained how proud he is of his boys following their big win.
“I am so proud of my players. They applied the instructions perfectly, what makes me even more proud is their behaviour on the pitch. When one looses the ball, another recovers it. I liked seeing this solidarity.
“My players wanted more even after the third goal, they still wanted to score. It’s this competitive spirit that I like,” Bubista said with excitement.
The Blue Sharks become the first country to progress to the knockout stage after two games in the group stage.
“We didn’t want to go into calculations. It’s a victory that does us a lot of good, especially for our confidence,” Bubista added.
Cape Verde will play their last group game against Cape Verde on Monday, 22 January.
