The first match against the Netherlands is not easy, but in my opinion, they have all the necessary skills to go all the way,&#8221; said David Trezeguet, former French international.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The unprecedented fact is that the World Cup trophy is there but it is coming to Senegal to be reunited with the African trophy. This is an unprecedented fact and I know that Senegal deserves it,&#8221; said Matar B\u00e2, Senegal&#8217;s minister of sports.<\/p>\n<p>The Lions of Teranga, the defending African champion, are one of the five African nations competing at this year\u2019s world cup. Sadio Man\u00e9 and his teammates share group A with the host country, Qatar, the Netherlands and Ecuador.<\/p>\n<p>Last February, Senegal won the very first African Cup of Nations(AFCON) in its history. The much-coveted trophy will be put back into play next June with the start of the qualifiers for the next AFCON which will take place in Cote d&#8217;Ivoire.<\/p>\n<p>The African champions will be the ones to kick off the competition against the Netherlands on November 21. If this adversary stands as a tough opponent, Ecuador and the country hosting the competition Qatar also in their group, stand as less insurmountable teams.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/mozambique\">Mozambique<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mozambique.
