National soccer head coach, Flemming Serritslev says he will be working with players on the speed of the game and timing of the passes as he prepares the national soccer team for the 2022 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers.

The 30 member national soccer squad is currently in camp in Ba.

Serritslev who is from Denmark says while there is a lot of talk about possession-based football, his current focus is to see players are passing in correct angles and maintaining correct speed as when this is not done, the game is slowed down which they want to avoid.

There is no confirmation at this stage as to when the FIFA World Cup Qualifiers will be played.
