What they said after the 2019 African cup of Nations draw

Ahram Online , Friday 12 Apr 2019,

"It is a difficult group but we are used to this level of competition. The teams know one another very well."
Morocco coach Herve Renard.

"I don't think the group is easy especially Guinea. They are very young and we have to be wary. We also have a young team but we have experience as well."
Nigeria coach Gernot Rohr.

"All the groups are difficult. We have two months to prepare well and we will try to make through the group to the next round. We defeated Egypt before in Kampala 1-0 and I am happy that we will play then in Egypt."
Uganda coach Sebastien Desabre

"The draw determines the teams you face but we actually have to be good on the pitch during the games to qualify to the next round"
Tunisia coach Alain Giresse
