The Barea will have their work cut out for them in the world qualifiers. |

Football lovers can’t wait to know the preparation program of the Malagasy selection, with a view to the next two days of qualifying for the 2026 World Cup, Africa zone. Madagascar is scheduled to host the Comoros on June 7, then Mali on the 11th, normally at home.
It was planned that the executive committee and the national technical direction were to receive the coach Romuald Rakotondrabe and his deputy, Gilles Hugon, yesterday afternoon, at the headquarters of the Federation in Isoraka. It was an opportunity for the technical staff to present their program for these crucial meetings. The editorial team tried last night to call the technical staff of Barea as well as that of the Federation, but none could be reached.
Reached by telephone again at the beginning of the afternoon, coach Roro underlines: “We have already established a list… For the locals, the sudden interruption of the elite championship, the Pure Play Football League, has slowed down our efforts a little. detection. Certainly, the Madagascar Cup continues, but there are not enough interesting matches.
Flat calm
The summons for expatriates should be sent to their respective clubs next week, at the latest fifteen days before their release.
Many question marks await answers. Where the next two Barea matches will finally be held, initially scheduled at home, after the non-approval of the Mahamasina stadium and the latest request from the Federation and the State for a decisive inspection by Caf. Asked precisely about the possibility, at the last moment, of the approval of the stadium, the national technical director, Rado Rasoanaivo, mentioned “that a Caf inspector is within our walls and will leave today (yesterday)”. As usual, the information is completely locked down and several managers do not pick up the phone.
Among the centers of interest of footballers also include, for the moment, which players will be selected among those selected during the friendly tournament in March, who will be the new recruits, will the former executives join the group after the announcement by the State, a few weeks ago, to settle premium arrears? In short, the next two matches are crucial. Madagascar occupies, after the first two days, third place in November, credited with 3 points, behind the Comoros (6 points) and Mali (4 points). The Barea lost on the first day to Ghana (0-1) then defeated Chad 3-0.

It was a striking image during the third stage of the Giro d’Italia. Classification leader Pogacar rode to the finish town of Fossano wearing purple pants. It turned out to be a tribute to the players of Torino FC, who died in an air disaster in 1949. The purple pants are a reference to the garnet red clothing in which this very successful team played their matches.
The top favorite for the overall victory decided to start again today with these special pants, also because it was a speed suit. Yet today Pogacar simply appeared again on the starting podium wearing black pants. The UCI has decided that it is against the rules and so the rose jersey wearer will race again today in a normal combination of pants and a shirt.
“I thought they were nice pants. The organization gave me the suit, so I put it on. Then we got a call from the UCI that it was not allowed. That’s why I now have my normal pants,” Pogacar said before the start of the ride Eurosport.
UPDATE 20u20
Some UCI commissioners were not at all pleased with the Slovenian leader’s unusual color combination. Not only did they call UAE Emirates on Monday evening, according to Cyclingnews they also warned the team that Pogacar would be disqualified if he were to wear the purple pants again in the stage to Andorra.
RCS Sport and people from clothing sponsor Castelli then tried to convince the commissioners that their own rules did indeed allow the combination, but the commissioners then looked to more experienced officials and UCI president David Lappartient to make a final decision.
