Didier Gomes Da Rosa to lead Mauritania to the CAN in Cameroon

Frenchman Didier Gomes Da Rosa has been appointed coach of the national soccer team of Mauritania to replace Corentin Martins, who was sacked in October after seven years of service.
“Mr. Didier Gomes Da Rosa is the new coach of the national team of Mauritania,” said the Football Federation of the Islamic Republic of Mauritania (FFRIM) in a statement issued Wednesday evening, without giving more details.
The 52-year-old French technician has coached several African clubs since the early 2010s including Coton Sport Garoua (Cameroon), Horoya AC (Guinea), Ismaily (Egypt) and Al Merreikh (Sudan).
He succeeds another French technician, Corentin Martins, who was dismissed in October, after the elimination of Mauritania in the World Cup 2022 qualifying match. The Mauritanian team will play its second CAN finals in a row, which will take place from January 9 to February 6, 2022 in Cameroon.
The Mourabitounes are in group F, with Gambia, Tunisia and Mali.
