The village of Songo is the center of operations, where the players are undergoing intense training to raise their performance level. The objective is clear: to achieve success in both the Moçambola (Mozambican football league) and the African Champions League.
However, a logistical challenge presents itself. The national champions' next opponent in the African Champions League is Petro de Luanda, a match scheduled for the 17th of this month. What makes this challenge even more remarkable is the fact that União Desportiva do Songo does not have a suitable field to host African competitions.
This situation forces the team to undertake a grueling journey from the province of Tete to the Mozambican capital, Maputo, where the Zimpeto National Stadium will host the match. The trip, which will be made by bus, is not only long but also tiring for the players.
The concerns are legitimate, as the players' physical and mental preparation is fundamental to facing a high-level opponent like Petro de Luanda. Rapid adaptation to the climate and conditions at Zimpeto will be essential to achieving outstanding performance.
