"I am disappointed with the result, considering the effort we put in and the dangerous situations we created. We were unable to score the second goal, which would probably have killed the match. Seychelles managed to equalise from a set piece. We expected a tough match and now we have to start all over again. Both teams played to win. Nothing is lost yet. Everything is possible. We will have a few days to recover. Now we have to prepare for the match against Madagascar. We will have the opportunity to see them in action on Saturday against Seychelles. But what saddens me the most is that we were unable to deliver this victory to the Mauritian fans." It will certainly be difficult for the team, but we have not yet seen the Malagasy team play. We will have the chance to see them play against Seychelles on Saturday. Our chances are still intact. With a win, we would be more relaxed. But a draw... we did not expect to drop two points. But sometimes football is like that. There are things we cannot control. Now we have to stay focused and optimistic. We believe in our chances and will keep working hard".

“I think the team is growing and it’s fantastic to see this team playing, knowing how to control the moments of the game. Of course we weren’t perfect, but we were fantastic in our approach to the game. From what we saw from the Ugandan team, we were able to play our game”. “The team conceded a goal from a set piece, it happens. That’s why I say football is beautiful, there are mistakes. The good thing about it all was that we were able to turn it around, and the team reacted, didn’t waver, always believed. They scored the second goal, controlled the game in their transition, in the ball circulation, with a lot of confidence”. “We were lucky, it was also our merit to score the first goal. I asked the players at half-time to keep their foot on the gas. We’re in first place, it was a brilliant victory, we could have done a lot more in the second half, but that doesn’t take away from what we did. I think the Mozambican people should be proud of our performance.”

Mauricio's likely starting line-up is set to be: Jean-Louis; Antoine, Collard, Rose, Mootoo; Langue; Aristide, Caliste, Botlar; Robillard, Legrand. Mauricio's team will feature a standout player from West Ham.

Mozambique's likely line-up should be formed by: Muendane; Maziuana, Cumbane, Pedro, Cherene; Abdala, Machava; Sumbane, Domingos, Francisco; Alfandega. Mozambique is making important changes.

West Ham United youth talent Gabriel Caliste is expected to be included in the Mauritian defence again for Saturday's clash. However, defender Jordan Francois is a doubt after picking up an injury late in the opening game and could miss the match.

Mozambique coach Chiquinho Conde is counting on the Portuguese duo Guebuza and captain Keyns Abdala to start in the win over South Africa. Despite this, international player Edson Mucuana could be in contention. Midfielder Alcidio Raice is competing for the starting spot with Fernando Domingos, who could start in this COSAFA Cup clash.
