After finding prior success in qualifying for the Africa Cup of Nations with Mauritania by qualifying the team for the 2021 edition in Cameroon, French coach Corentin Martins is looking to repeat the feat with Libya for 2023. The Mediterranean Knights have a group including opponents Tunisia, Equatorial Guinea and Botswana that looks like it will be very competitive with no easy matchups.
BBC Sport Africa’s Morad Dakhil has more on the hiring of Martins, who replaces Spaniard Javier Clemente and has assessed his new team as capable of qualifying.
