Chaabani also noted the presence of four Brazilian players in the Angolan squad, as well as a Brazilian coach, which gives the team a technical and fluid style of play.

Concerning the preparations for his team, the coach insisted on the importance of regaining good physical and mental shape for his players. He clarified that the selection of the starting lineup will be based on performances in training and in previous matches:
“Those who stand out during the last meetings will have their place in the eleven. We also need to manage fatigue to avoid injuries.”
The match between Berkane and Lunda Sol will take place on Wednesday evening at the Berkane Municipal Stadium, from 8:00 p.m. (GMT+1), as part of the second day of the group stage of the CAF Confederation Cup.
