WHAT TO EAT BEFORE A FOOTBALL MATCH

Football match nutrition advice - what to eat before a football match. In today's video, JayMike speaks to FC Nordsjælland nutritionist Bruno Cirillo, who walks us through the theory behind what you need to play a football match - and who will also show you an example of a pre-match meal that you should eat before a football match in order to be 100% ready. In other words, you'll get a better understand of what to eat in the 24 hours before a football match and what to stay away from - and also, you'll learn a bit of the theory behind how you eat right before a football match. So if you want to eat right as a football player, this is a great video to start with!

@Brichanise Terrell I love Jesus peace be upon him as one of God's prophets who was born in Jerusalim, Palestine. He worshipped one God just like Adam and the previous prophets. There is no evidence that Jesus peace be upon him claimed that " I am God or worship me". He was born miraculously without any male intervention. The last message from God (Allah) to us is the holy Quran, it is the only book that was preserved among all the divine books. The bible and all the divine books are now no longer God's words because they were distorted and not preserved. For any more information watch Dr. zakir naik videos here is a link for a video about Jesus peace be upon him. youtu.br/BF1tT6-yEyM

Hello. Verry nice and useful video!!! Usually don't have breakfast. That's why I eat 3.5-4 hours before a match. I use rice instead of pasta 120g. Instead of juice, I make a shake with bananas between 300-400g. It is obtained identically to what is said in the video. After a game I usually eat twice. The first meal is pizza or pasta, the second is oatmeal most often (sometimes pasta, bread, rice can be), fruit, chocolate and some meat or eggs.

Food effects mindset also.. For example, in eastern India, people love football more then the rest of India. Eastern India people also prefers rice more over complex carbs. Daily lunch in these areas looks like rice, lentil soup, fish, vegetables etc. I'm from West bengal, but nowadays North-east is the powerhouse of football in India.

what a good informative video. I would like to see another video go into more detail like things to after matches, during matches at the same level of detail. like 1 gram of protein for every 1kg of body weight for the recovery phase after a game. what to eat at halftime, what to drink in what ratio like 300ml water 100ml of a sports drinks like Lucozade to help rehydrate you during the game, stuff like that. basically a week in the life of a pro athlete's exercises and diet. it is very hard to cut through the bullshit and get true advice.
