The Beninese selection is in Maputo. The Cheetahs arrived on Thursday evening in the Mozambican capital. This is as part of the sixth day of the CAN 2023 qualifiers. Having left Cotonou in the morning, the delegation landed at Maputo airport around 5 p.m.

The group of Cheetahs accompanied by officials is then taken to Afrin Prestige hotel in Maputo after having undergone the usual formalities. During the day of Friday September 8, the players of the national coach, Gernot Rohr, will carry out the traditional reconnaissance of the pitch of the Estadio Nacional Do Zimpeto.

This session scheduled for 1 p.m. (GMT), will allow the Beninese team to get their bearings before the day of the match. As a reminder, the match is scheduled for September 9, 2023 at the Estadio Nacional do Zimpeto in Maputo at 3 p.m. GMT.

Held in check by Senegal (1-1) during the previous day, the Cheetahs must snatch victory against the Mambas to validate their passport for the trip to Ivorian soil.

Second in the standings after its logical victory against Rwanda (2-0) last June, the Mozambican selection only needs a draw to be one of those called to this African mass.
