Nothing is going well with the Burkinabè. The Stallions selection will be deprived of important players. Indeed, 6 executives of the squad should miss this shock against the Lions of Teranga. And this is due to injuries.
These include, among others, captain Bertrand Traoré, Hervé Koffi, Dango Ouattara, Mohamed Konaté, Gustavo Sangaré and Abdoul Kader Ouattara. The absence of these players will upset the tactical systems of Brama Traoré, who had already placed his pawns before flying to Mali. Concerning Bertrand Traoré, Ajax Amsterdam player, he took hits during the championship match on Sunday and would not be 100%.
This is a big dose of worry for the technical staff of the Burkinabè team who had to readjust their selection for the 5th and 6th days of the Can Maroc 2025 qualifiers due to the unavailability of six key players
This news was made official by the Burkinabè Football Federation this Monday, November 11, 2024, leading to changes in the composition of the team to compensate for these absences.
The technical staff quickly communicated the complete list of substitutes, thus guaranteeing the continuity of preparations for these two matches. The Stallions of Burkina Faso are fighting with the Senegal Team. The two opponents are each 10 points at the top of Group L. Although already qualified, it is necessary to determine the leader of the group. This is what the duel between the two teams on November 14 will be used for. But the Burkinabè already seem handicapped by the multiplication of injuries within its squad.
It should be remembered that the previous duel between these teams ended in a draw. But the Burkinabè have done well without all those aforementioned names. These are therefore major cases of absence, but not insurmountable for the Stallions of Brama Traoré.
