Ndubuisi Egbo First Black Coach To Qualify An European Team To Uefa by amliftedhigher: 6:56pm On Jul 24, 2020 |
Ndubuisi Egbo, the Nigerian coach who guided Albania's KF Tirana to top flight triumph in their centenary year, has made history as the first African coach to lead a European team to a league title, and qualification for the UEFA Champions League -- or any European competition, for that matter. For a team that has now won the Albanian league title 25 times -- more than any other club in the country -- Tirana being crowned champions again was a huge achievement and a relief, given they were nearly relegated the season prior. Additionally, their triumph is unexpectedly resonating across Africa, and for good reason. Egbo is still coming to terms with the achievement -- especially given that he had taken over as manager with the side in perilous waters in late 2019. "It's unexplainable," Egbo told ESPN.
