Kampala — UGANDA Cranes' Group 3 opponents Benin are a team in dilemma. Just weeks after being declared unfit to host future international matches by a FIFA inspection team, The Squirrels have been hit by the resignation of coach Reinhard Fabisch.
The German trainer resigned last week, citing health problems. Fabisch sought leave to have a spinal operation for a slipped disc but after the operation, said doctors advised against any physical activity.
Fabisch was in charge of the Squirrels at the Nations Cup in January where they lost all three games they played. In a build-up tie in March, Benin were held 2-2 draw by a German select side in Frankfurt.
