The final fixtures which will decide the
five African representatives for Brazil
2014 have been drawn, and there are
some interesting encounters ahead
The 2014 World Cup final qualifying
round draw for Africa took place in Cairo,
Egypt on Monday, with the 10 countries
remaining in the qualifiers discovering
who their opponents would be.
There are only five qualifying spots open
for the remaining national teams in
Africa, as they play their opponents over
two legs to decide the victor and
qualifier for the 2014 World Cup in
Brazil.
The 10 teams were divided into two pots
ahead of the draw. Pot A contained the
five seeded teams based on their latest
Fifa ranking. This included Cote d'Ivoire,
Ghana, Algeria, Nigeria and Tunisia.
Pot B contained the remaining sides,
which included Egypt, Ethiopia,
Cameroon, Senegal and Burkina Faso.
The biggest gasp of the draw
proceedings was reserved for the
moment when Cote d'Ivoire and Senegal
were drawn against each other, setting
up a very fierce West African tie.
Other interesting clashes include Nigeria
facing Ethiopia, and Ghana taking on
Egypt.
The teams will play home and away
fixtures on October 11-15 and November
15-19 to determine the five finalists,
who will then represent the African
continent in Brazil.
The Final African Qualifying
Fixtures for the 2014 World Cup are
as follows:
Cote
d'Ivoire v Senegal
Ethiopia v Nigeria
Tunisia v Cameroon
Ghana v Egypt
Algeria v Burkina
Faso

Thank God. I believe strongly Nigeria will qualify. Of course we must not under-rate the Ethiopians in any way. Up super eagles

I think the NFF as a matter of urgency should organize sponsorship of the super eagles on the basis of say $1,000 for each member of the team for each shot at goal. I believe by doing this, The Super eagles will be motivated to always shoot at goal & then we have more goals scored. anyway, just my small idea.

UP NIGERIA, UP SUPER EAGLES.
