They will also record all statistics around the competition.<\/p>\n<p>The TSG is also involved in selecting the Player of the Match for each game, as well as the top 11 players and substitutes for a Team of the Tournament. They also choose the Player of the Tournament and Golden Glove winner among the goalkeepers.<\/p>\n<p>After this year\u2019s Cosafa Cup concludes, the TSG will be expected to compile and present a comprehensive report to Cosafa\u2019s leadership, wherein various recommendations and vital information will be shared on how the regional body can improve the quality and calibre of the competition, and also on how latest football trends can be adopted by the body.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m truly honoured and humbled to have been chosen to serve on this very important Cosafa group. During my time with the Brave Warriors, I won the Cosafa Cup and also won the Plate competition of Cosafa, and with all the experience gained while coaching at the highest level in the region and on the continent, it will be another opportunity for me to share my experience and also learn more from my colleagues in the group. I am very excited. I can\u2019t wait to assist where needed,\u201d said Mannetti.<\/p>\n<p>The retired Brave Warriors legendary midfield kingpin added it will be a huge opportunity for him to exchange notes with top football personalities such as Fish and renowned former Mamelodi Sundowns assistant coach Cavin Johnson, who was until recently assistant to Pitso Mosimane at Egyptian giants Al Ahly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThose are some of the people who will make up this year\u2019s Cosafa TSG and it will be great to learn and share with them. They (Fish and Johnson) have served football at the highest level, so this is a huge chance for me and Namibia to exchange with them on this group.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/namibia\">Namibia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Namibia.
