Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, 05/27 - Burkina Faso`s football squad returned to Ouagadougou after a weeklong training camp in Lens, northern France.

The Stallions have resumed work to prepare for their first match in the joint World Cup/African Cup of Nations qualifying series against Ghana on 5 June.


Coach Ivica Todorov, the new coach of the Burkinabe side, expressed satisfaction with the Lens camp in spite of his proteges` loss against the city`s premier league club.


He said he learnt a lot of his players, pointing to the dynamism of Florent Rouamba and Issouf Sanou in the midfield and to the talent of striker Yssouf Kone.

Todorov was, however, disappointed with the performance of his goalkeepers Siaka Coulibaly, Mohamed Kabore and Sylvain Kabore, who failed to make a good impression on him.


He will be looking for replacements, he added.
