Nations Cup 2013: Bonuses promised to Ethiopian players

Source: BBC Sport

Ethiopia's players have been promised more than $100,000 each if they win the Africa Cup of Nations in South Africa.
The Waliya Antelopes - who are ranked 110th in the world - won the tournament in 1962 but last qualified in 1982.
The country's federation has said it will pay each player $111,000 to win the trophy and $55,000 to reach the final.

Ethiopia coach Sewnet Bishaw and his assistant would also be rewarded with "significantly higher prize money".
Ethiopian Football Federation (EFF) president Sahilu Gebremariam said the bonus offers were "intended to boost the morale of the team".

The Ethiopians qualified for the Nations Cup after going through on away goals, following their 5-5 aggregate draw with East African rivals Sudan.

A founder member of the Confederation of African Football (Caf), they contested the first Nations Cup in 1957.
They face champions Zambia in their opening Group C game on 21 January, with Burkina Faso and Nigeria their other two opponents.

This sounds redicules. They qualify in 30 years and already thinking about the cup? how about some $$ for suriving the first round or wining one mach...lets not expect too much out of this or we will be disappointed, as usual.

Reta,

You don't go into a battle filed with that mentality. You go in to win it all and come out Victorious. thinking. Zambia came from the bottom and won the cup last year. I'm sure they went in to win it and they did. I know what you are trying to say, but there's no way around it. Fear will only hurt this team. I'm sure they are not over confident. However, they should not fear no one! Fear of not being good enough is that held this team back for 31 years!

First we wish a success for the team.

Second, the level of incentives send sign to youth to pay high attention to football. I followed this week that runners too get incentives but that was in birr under 100,000 and not in $. If such amount of money exists for luxury activities, why foreign donation to poverty prone areas?

I don't know why some people try to discourage us and argue why we aimed high to win it all. You don't go to war thinking you're gonna lose it.
"You play the game to win" coach Herman,
It is high time in Ethiopia. The new generation is very ambitious and hard working, which has been the motto started by our great leader the late PM Meles Zenawi. Always aim for the stars!

Money is the biggest motivator for any sport. Although the amount is not much for this pros the promised bonus represents more than just the money. The players are motivated and the entire nation is behind them.

Without appearing to be pessimistic, I would say a quarter final would be a tremendous achievement.
Go Waliyas!

AZ,
It is not easy passing your comment over.
We are not doing what you are saying. To the contrary, some people are more realistic or cautious in their expectations than others. They didn't mean to belittle the ambition of our NT.

Did your late earthly god say about aiming for the stars? Too bad he never made it.

Are you preparing the ground to applaud & give credit the late despot in the event of any success by the NT?

Nenewe,...

"KEEP AWAY FROM PEOPLE WHO TRY TO BELITTLE YOUR AMBITIONS, SMALL PEOPLE ALWAYS DO THAT, BUT THE REALLY GREAT MAKE YOU FEEL THAT YOU TOO CAN BECOME GREAT" Mark Twain,

The above quote fits you like a "swiming suite" as long as you're a small minded, small person.
Our great leader the late PM Meles Zenawi has left us an immortal legacy, which lives on through generations for a long time to come. And you cannot take it away from our youth, nor you've no chance of discrediting our great leader. Just go to Ethiopia if you can and see that burning desire in every single young Ethiopian to become a great one like the great Meles Zenawi, with that unconditional love of Ethiopian people.
You seem an out of touch loser like the rest FOOLS & IDIOTS of the diaspora, who live in a denial fantasy world, imagining none existing made up stories. Naming each other hero "abebe gelebaw", or zeraff, zerraff, we are invading Addis Ababa, but you find them invading the happy hour at Addis Ababa restuarant in Washington DC.

Is the prise Money for the team or for tplf propaganda+?

My friend used to og to university. He had to walk to the campus. To save time once in a while he asked extra Pocket moeny. His father used to replay when i was Young bla bla. When the son graduated he couldnt blieve his eyes by the enermous amount of Money used to make the party of the graduation. Many People were envited, Food, alchol including whisky.

The Ethiopian team had no Money for hotells so they had to come to khartum late in the night and how tired they were to come to their hotel after midnight. They did not even sleep enough because after some hours they had the much. They had only 15 hours befroe the much when they landed in Khartum. And they lost 5 to 3.

Where did this Money come from now? To sale tplf cheap politics. Look what i have done after 22 years i could send footbalers to africans cup. Good God hwo these woyane thinks.

If the Money comes from efort then woyane in tigray prays the team loose. That is the only way they can protect their Money.

The only way the federation/alamude can give that amount of money is by gambling through western book makers. If you bet Ethiopia to win the cup for $1 you will get $200. The federation has to spend few thousand of dollar to get all the prise money. They must have bet few thousands of dollars. That will do the trick easily. If Ethiopia win the cup I will have $$$$$$. Pray for Ethiopia, then I will benefit. You get it? Advise; do not gamble like weyane and me.

The moral of South Africa in the first ceremonial match will be high then I say Cape Verde is not lucky to face South Africa in the first day. It is unlikely a host country in the first day of the opening match will loose the game.

International Journalists are saying Nigeria and Zambia will make it to the second round while leaving Burkina Faso and Ethiopia fight for the third place in Group C.

first of all i dont know why you are spitting racial slur over this news. this is good news in every way but even if it bad news for you why do you insult ethiopians over it. yes, things are not perfect but we all remember the day when our national team players and athletes never return home. today not only they return, most of them are succeful at home. its funny how you people go on radio and say "egna eko zeregnoch aydelenm, maninim antelam" but what matters is what you do/say behind closed door when you think no one is looking. now go blame meles for your action as you are used too....

Nice quote there. Fits me as it is quoted and I should avoid small cadre like you.


Sure his legacy will live through generations because of what he had done to the social fabric of the society and the country.I guess we are on the same page there.

I guess, the combined word "F&I" should be added to Webster's dictionary to mean "Ethiopian diaspora". Author meles & contributor Rice.

I feel so bad to see my fellow Ethiopians (on both sides of the isle) try to politicize this event. Woyane and its sympathizers would like us to believe that our national team qualified to this prestigious tournament because of the late “visionary leader”. ባለፈዉ ጊዜ ብሔራዊ ቡድናችን ሱዳንን ሲያሸንፍ የኢቲቪው commentator ድሉ የተገኘው የብሔራዊ ቡድናችን ተጫዋቾች ለዱሮው ጠቅላያችን የገቡትን ቃል ለመጠበቅ ባሳዩት ቁርጠኝነት ነዉ ብሎ ያለሀፍረት ነገረን:: ፌዴሬሽኑ ደግሞ የተገኘው ድል ለህዝብ ተፈጥረው: ለህዝብ ኖረው: በኋላም ለህዝብ ሲሉ ለሞቱት: ለዱሮው ጠቅላያችን መታሰቢያ እንዲሆን ተወስኗል ብሎናል:: ቢገርመንም ብዙ አልተናደድንም::
On the other hand, I feel sorry for those Ethiopians who never accept anything good from Ethiopia as long as Woyane is in power. Even qualifying for this event after 31 years means nothing for these people.

ኧረ ሰዎች እባካችሁ ነገሩን በተራ የፖለቲካ መነፅር ብቻ አንመልከተው!!!!

ለእኔ ዋናው ነገር አገሬ ለአፍሪካ ዋንጫ ማለፏ ብቻ ነዉ:: ተጫዋቾቹ ለመለስ ቃል ኪዳን ተጫወቱ ቢባል ባይባል ድሉ ለመለስ መታሰቢያ ቢሆን ባይሆን ተጫዋቾቻችን በመለስ ራዕይ ተመርተው አሸነፉ ቢባል ባይባል አይጨንቀኝም::

It is nice to see the cup going to Addis. The promise will not be kept if the players win. It is like a father who can not afford a loaf of bread promising his young son a $1000000000 if he kills 10 lions. It sounds like the federation is gambling. It is not bad gambling

I wish the team good luck. They should be proud with what they achieve so far anyway

Dear brother,
Politics aside, I don’t really see why it will be shameful to motivate our players like what the Federation is doing. What would you say if, in the unlikely scenario, our Waliyas win the trophy?? If you are one those Ethiopians who think that the team got here by chance, then you should also know that this same team may win the trophy by chance.:):):)
