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!

Him: Says to eat carbohydrates
Me about to eat 10 bags of chips: Ok

[edmartin]

If you play in the morning for a 10:30 kick off like me, I find a big pasta or potato based meal in the evening and two bananas 1.5 hours before KO gives me the best energy. Lucozade at half time.

I read that bananas give you energy for 90 min that's why it's the first thing that always comes to my mind before a match.

[petarbakalov]

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.

I had some very good games. 50+ sprints without any carbs at match day! Only protein and fat (fish, some veggies, yoghort. almonds) and caffeine of course. Carbload was the day before.
