High Altitude Zone: Are The Team Preparing For The Impact Of The Zone? by omar22(m): 12:27pm On May 20, 2010
Has anyone consider the fact that we are going to be playing in a high altitude zone and all I see is zero preparation to combat the effect this would have on our players, all the participating countries are now camped in a high altitude region but the Super Eagle are where? I now the next friendly is going to take place around East London, WHY? The South American teams most of them are based in Ecuador, Bolivia or in an area high above sea level… England and the French team have gone to Austria, some are sleeping in oxygen tents,

But if we think we could turn up without acclimatising ourselves we would be out of the tournament before a ball is been kicked… Remember the Super Eagles performance in Mozambique? Yes very poor and when you strike the ball in such area / zone the ball flies and moves so fast…. This was why our opponents were hitting long range shots at us…, ,

I think we are flirting with a hammering

France is in Tignes (mountains - high altitude)

A few countries are camping in the Swiss and Austrian mountain sides.

Then we wonda why we don't do well in competitions? This is typical of those that run things in our nation. No fore sight,

They think its just turn up and play,

Money allocated for this will be stashed in some ones account and who suffers, the nation.
