Guinea coach Lappe Bangoura is expecting better ahead of the country’s double-header against Libya.
Guinea have beaten Cameroon and Côte d’Ivoire in the last six months and look forward to continuing with the same form in a bid qualify for the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
After losing 2-0 in Tunisia and then going down 2-1 in Conakry to Congo DR, Guinea are one of the sides with much to do and will be hoping to get back into contention.
Guinea coach Lappe Bangoura is hoping his side pull up their socks.
“I haven’t been in the Guinea job for long and it’s my first taste of coaching at this level,” he told FIFA.com.
“I need time to adjust and impose my philosophy. We played well at the start but we couldn’t put our chances away.
“We also struggled tactically. I’ve been able to get my message across since then, though, and my players have started to take it on board.
“We’ve progressed mentally and tactically, as our latest results have shown.”
“The double-header is very important,” he added.
“We’ll be playing to win and to regain our confidence. It’s a chance for us to see where we really are after the work we’ve put in these last few months.
“We’ll build on it and keep on working with the squad.”
