Togo’s coach, Didier Six, acknowledged the strength of the Ivory Coast team during a press conference and highlighted the pressure on them as one of the tournament favorites. He specifically mentioned Didier Drogba, suggesting that it might be his last African Cup of Nations (CAN) appearance, making him even more motivated.
Despite acknowledging the quality of the Ivory Coast team, Six emphasized that Togo would not back down. He expressed confidence in his team’s abilities and stated that they would not approach the match as resigned victims. Togo aims to reach the quarter-finals, a feat they have never achieved in the history of the CAN.
Six also praised Emmanuel Adebayor, highlighting the confidence and positive impact the striker brings to the team. Adebayor’s presence is seen as crucial, and the coach emphasized his importance as Togo looks to make a mark in the tournament.
Emmanuel Adebayor Sheyi will be one of the attractions during this CAN 2013.
Even if Togo is not the favorite, the presence of Emmanuel Adebayor draws everyone’s attention to Didier Six’s training.
This is evidenced by the large presence of the international press at each Eperviers training session.
They are still there, the image hunters to follow every gesture and step of the Tottenham player.
