Sports › I Watched The Elephants Of Ivory Coast Today And... by bingbagbo(op): 8:39pm On Jun 24, 2019

I have watched all the big teams play in this AFCON but for Cameroon and Ghana who are yet to play. I have watched Egypt, Nigeria, Senegal, Morocco , Algeria and the Ivory Coast. I must say the Ivory Coast look scary. I would rate them this way

1. Ivory coast
2. Senegal
3. Egypt
4. Algeria
5. Nigeria
6. Morocco

The Ivory coast have the individual talents and proved quite cohesive. But for the plethora of misses by Jonathan Kodja and the share agility of the South African goalie, the Bafana Bafana would have been humiliated. So far, they have played against a real formidable and respectable opposition amongst the big boys in South Africa who won the 1996 tourney.

Egypt were not convincing against Zimbabwe, Senegal had an easy match in Tanzania (I wonder how they qualified), Algeria, Nigeria and Morocco were all Lucky.

For now I can boldly declare that, the Ivory coast is the team to beat. From their goal keeper Sylvian Gbohou, to back men Serge Aurier and Kanon, to the experience d Serey Die, Seri, Kessie , max Alan Gradel, Nicholas Pepe, Zaha, Kodja and the rest, they were just a delight to watch.

The big teams must pray to avoid the elephants.

Up ivory coast

Long live Ghana

One love Africa

6. Their 2017 triumph proved to be a fluke afterafter they failed to qualify for the world cup in a group that had Algeria, out of form Nigeria and Zambia

7. Cameroon really struggled to qualify for this AFCON

8. Can't match the player quality of Ivory coast, Senegal, Morocco etc

9. Arrived late in Egypt, actually the latest team to arrive.

10. Lack of a talismanic player, a leader in the team

I wish Cameroon well, I don't hate them

Sports › 10 Reasons Why Cameroon Will Struggle To Defend Their AFCON Title by bingbagbo(op): 2:58pm On Jun 23, 2019

They are called the indomitable lions. Real giants of African football. They were the first African team to reach the quarter finals of the world cup in 1990. They have produced countless African soccer greats that I need not mention. In terms of AFCON glory, they are behind only Egypt , haven already won this trophy five good times. They come into this tournament as defending champions, domiciled in group F alongside Benin, Ghana and Guinea-Bissau. Although they are considered by several connoisseurs of the game as one of the favourites to win, I think it will be easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for the guys from Yaounde to successfully defend their title. Below are ten reasons that have influenced my stance:

1. Absence of 2017 winning coach, Hugo Bruce

2. Absence of their 2017 talismanic marksman and final winner, Vincent Abubakar

3. Too many dressing room and internal wranglings

4. Apparent naivety of their new star coaches, Clarence Seedorf and Patrick Kluivert

5. Cameroon have really struggled after their 2017 Afcon triumph

To be continued

Like them or hate them , Nigeria is one of the big football nations in Africa. Fact that they have won this AFCON three times is an epitome to this assertion. In terms of AFCON glory, they are only behind Egypt (7), Cameroon (5) and Ghana (4).Over the years they have produced quite some great players: my personal favourites being Wilson Oruma, Celestine Babayaro, Taiye Taiwo, Julius Aghahowa and Ike shorunmu. Nigeria played their first prelim game yesterday and as an independent, objective non-nigerian, I observed these 10 things.

1. Nigeria have a very technically astute coach in Gernot Rohr and their destiny in this AFCON solely depends on the experienced German.

2. Paul Onuachu, their top marksman is not a reliable goalpoacher.

3. Nigeria's weekest link is the man between the sticks, Daniel Akpeyi. He is full of stage fright.

4. Nigeria lacks a ball joggling creative attacking midfielder

5. Their secret weapon, Samuel Chukwueze, will be better as a sub, will be impotent as a starter against the big teams, mark my words

6. John Obi Mikel has always been an overhyped player. He is a waste in this Nigerian team, no wonder he is club less.

7. Nigeria's defence is a huge suspect, I can imagine how it will leak against Salah-Trezeguet, Mane-Niang, Gyan-Ayew

8. Oghenekaro Etebo is more dangerous in advanced midfield, he played too deep for the team, I think he is Nigeria's best player anyway

9. Odion Ighalo should be starting ahead of Paul Onuachu

10. With luck, this team can do quite well, and I mean quite well.

I don't hate nigeria

11. Ghana has a coach that has played in the world and managed to draw with eventual winners Germany , that defeated Brazil 7-1 in that same tournament

12. Ghana is hungrier for the trophy than any other team, won it 37 years ago

13. Presence of VAR at the knockout stages will ensure fairness which will boost Ghana's chances

14. The president of Ghana has tasked the team to bring him the trophy

15. This could be ASA Gyans last AFCON, and would want to prove a point.

Like them or hate them, Ghana is the most talented African nation when it comes to football. Administrative, managerial and organizational deficiencies have however hampered the country's progress in global football but even in spite of this, the giants of African football have made some giant strides over the years. Ghana won their fourth AFCON in 1982, at a time when the Ivory Coast had none, Cameroun had one , Nigeria had one and even Egypt had just two. After 1982, Ghana has gone ahead to make three more grand finals , that but for hard luck, Ghana could be boasting of 7 AFCON trophies now just like Egypt. For those who do not know, Ghana was in the AFCON final in 1992 where they lost on penalties to the Ivory Coast, again in the finals in 2010 where they lost narrowly to Egypt and again in 2015 against the Ivory Coast where they threw a two goal lead to lose yet another AFCON final to hard luck.

For those who don't know, Ghana was the first African team to win a medal in soccer, in the Olympics in 1992, before Nigeria and Cameroon eventually won gold. Ghana is the only African country to have won the coveted the under 20 world cup in 2009. Ghana is amongst two other African teams (Cameroon and Senegal) to have reached the quarter finals of the FIFA world cup. This Ghana cannot be underrated.

Ghana has produced several soccer greats including, Wilberforce Mfum, Abdul Razak, Osei Kofi, Kofi Badu, Abedi Pele, Tony Yeboah, Nii Lamptey, Sammy Kuffuor, Michael Essien, Sulley Muntari etc and the list goes on. Ghana has even produced players for world soccer giants like Germany ( Gerome Boateng, Gerald Asamoah , David Odonkor etc) England ( Danny Welbeck, Callum Hudson Oddoi etc), France (Marcel Desailly) Italy (Mario Ballotelli ) and the list goes on. Against this little backdrop, I present to you, 20 reasons why Ghana will win this years AFCON title.
