Following criticism from various people in regards to Uganda Cranes performance under Sebastien Desabre in recent months, the French man has reacted.
Desabre who took over the Cranes top job in December has picked one win in 9 games but only three have been competitive matches.
“People have not seen the matches and only interpret the results,” Desabre started in a long post on his official Facebook Page. “It is normal, it is the meditative world of football,” he adds before he offers what he and the technical staff think about the matches so far.
Uganda’s previous game was a 2-1 loss to Niger that was stained refereeing controversy and the Frenchman dismisses the manner in which the team conceded.
The former Ismaily coach who has previously worked with clubs in Morocco and Ivory Coast among others also offers hope to Ugandans that the team will be ready for Afcon 2019 qualifiers against Tanzania and Lesotho.
Desabre’s critics including his predecessor Mulitin ‘Micho’ Sredojevic have pointed at lack of an entertaining playing style as promised but also failure to pick results.
Desabre differs by asserting “we must win but also give style to the team so that we are competitive against the best nation and hope to win a title soon. Everyone is working hard for that.”
Desabre has the backing of the players as revealed by team captain Denis Onyango in an interview.
