Medeama SC, the Ghanaian football club gearing up for a crucial CAF Champions League encounter against Yanga SC, finds itself in the throes of frustration as coach Evans Adotey expresses dismay over the lack of suitable training facilities in Tanzania.
The team’s plans for optimal preparation have been disrupted as they were denied access to a fitting training ground both on Monday and Tuesday.
This unexpected hurdle has cast uncertainty over Medeama’s readiness for the pivotal match against Yanga SC.
Coach Adotey voiced his concerns at a press conference, stating, “On Monday, we planned to train on a good pitch but we were denied access to the venue.
Even today (Tuesday), which is compulsory training, I was told that there was no place for us to train. For now, the match takes place tomorrow, and so I don’t know what will happen after (the press conference).
I don’t yet know where my team will train or finally prepare for the match,” as reported by ghanasoccernet.
The match, a much-anticipated clash between Medeama and Young Africans, is slated for Wednesday, December 20, 2023, at 1 p.m. GMT.
The team’s inability to secure a suitable training ground has heightened concerns regarding their physical readiness and strategic preparation for the pivotal fixture.
The outcome of the match could significantly impact Medeama’s standing in the CAF Champions League, making the access to proper training facilities a critical factor in their pursuit of success on the continental stage.
