Collin Benjamin, the determined national coach of Namibia, is setting his sights on creating a unique and memorable experience for football enthusiasts. With less than three weeks remaining before the kick-off, Benjamin expresses his eagerness to lead the Brave Warriors to new heights and leave an indelible mark on the prestigious competition.
“We can create something truly unique. Collectively, as a nation, we must decide what we actually want from our national team.
We formulate goals, but then we have to work towards them,” asserts Collin Benjamin.
The seasoned coach outlines a two-fold objective for Namibia: to showcase attractive and dynamic football on the field and to secure positive results, translating to victories.
His ambitious goal extends to reaching the semi-finals or better at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, a feat that would undoubtedly mark Namibia’s football history.
Collin Benjamin, since assuming the coaching role for the Brave Warriors in July 2022, has showcased promise with a commendable start.
The team secured a convincing 2-0 victory against Lesotho in his debut match.
The subsequent three matches, marked by one win, one draw, and one loss, present a neutral performance that Benjamin aims to elevate when the squad takes the stage in Ivory Coast for AFCON 2023 in mid-January.
The Namibian coach is not merely a strategic choice for the upcoming tournament but holds the aspirations of the nation’s football federation until 2027.
The expectation is for Benjamin to provide adept leadership and effective management for the national team, with an eye on sustainable success.
Namibia, under Benjamin’s guidance, boasts a robust and seasoned team, positioning itself as a potential dark horse in the competition.
As the anticipation builds, football enthusiasts eagerly await Namibia’s performance on the continental stage, curious to witness if the Brave Warriors can indeed become one of the unexpected surprises of AFCON 2023.
In the quest for excellence, Collin Benjamin’s vision becomes a guiding beacon for Namibia, urging the nation to rally behind the team and embark on a journey that has the potential to redefine the country’s football narrative.
The stage is set, and the Brave Warriors are poised to make their mark in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.
