The Guinea team is preparing to face DR Congo in the quarter-finals of CAN 2023 with a reduced squad.
After the victory in eighth final and the emotions, time for concentration. The Syli National is indeed preparing to cross swords with the Leopards for the fifth quarter-final in its history. An opponent who has not recently been successful for the Guineans, knowing that the latter have two defeats, counting for the qualifiers for the 2018 World Cup (1-2 then 3-1).
The curse of the first knockout match being broken, the Kaba Diawara gang wants to continue dreaming. She therefore intends to take her revenge against the Congolese, defeaters of the reigning African vice-champion, Egypt, in the previous round. However, the group remains deprived of some of its forces.
Moriba and Conte leave the rally
Indeed, three players did not take part in group training on Monday. Absent since the third day of groups (0-2 defeat against holders Senegal) due to a thigh injury, defensive midfielder Abdoulaye Touré is continuing a specialized recovery program. This is what the Guinean Football Federation (FGF) indicates on its official X account (formerly Twitter). Le Havrais worked indoors and remains under observation by doctors.

His midfield partner Ilaix Moriba, suffering from adductor injuries, was authorized to leave the gathering for additional examinations in Europe. Ditto for Bastia center forward Facinet Conte. Both elements should make their return before the meeting with the DRC on Friday. As a reminder, they were withdrawn against Equatorial Guinea on Sunday (1-0).
