1-1 full time Senegal won’t be happy. They almost lost the game

From my keen observation so far, it's quite clear that Daniel Amokachi is a better commentator/analyst than Sunday Oliseh.

Do you agree?
Asides his stuttering I enjoy his commentary more than Oliseh. Knows how to joke too

same as Capeverde, i see them rising fast amongst the ranks…their foreign based players will also make a competitive team in the nearest future
This is another country who will cause chaos in the nearest future.

That's why that satanic inspiration of Patrice to zone Nations league must be resisted vigorously. West Africa is too flooded with wereys

They are an Old Powerhouse. As Zaire, they were quite scary.

Some of the top stars of Belgian Football, past and present like Romelu Lukaku, Loic Openda, Emile Mpenza, Youri Tielemans are Congolese.

So DRC will always be a threat on the continent as long as they keep the bulk of the talents they have across Europe.
Exactly.

Asides Nigeria, they have the largest diaspora in sub Saharan Africa.

These french speaking nations are not playing.

Congo seems to be the giant of central Africa.

West Africa is packed with a lot of power houses.

Bro Senegal played like they ought to. We played like we were under a spell (little allowance for fatigue from 120 mins before)

Opinion: should we not throw away this Tunisia game?

There’s a little chance Senegal might drop to second. If they do, then the biggest threats will drop to the lower end of the knockouts tree.

By topping the group we are then guaranteed to meet either Algeria or Senegal and potentially Morocco in the semis.

If we throw away this game, what's the probability that we will win the next game.
This super eagles can't be trusted.
I am watching their games without any emotional attachment, I can't afford a broken heart.

When you think of ex Man U players like Nani and Patrice evra who are of Cape Verde descent it tells you the depth of talent that exists from that country.
ohh yes oo

Nah ball we dey talk na no be history. You can’t use this match to justify what we played against DRC. Different dynamic.

Wait a min. Against Tunisia for 1st round, u ceded posession. But for final, u come dey drag am with Senegal and made even more passes than u recorded vs Tunisia. Lol.... u for no adapt, Senegal for bash u wetin no good. 😁

In all, I hope this translates to the real action over in Morocco coz I can see your 1st game result mirrors real life too.
You are very observant Doc 😂

In the Tanzania game, na me first concede seff, everywhere blur once 😂

I'm just praying Tanzania plays well against Uganda and even beats them because if Uganda trash Tanzania, that one go be public confirmation say we play rubbish in the first game. 🥲

There'd be unnecessary pressure for the last game if we lose this one.

Best is to draw, then win last game with a GD that will keep us 2nd

When this kind comparison start again?

It's like something makes them raise their game or we can't raise our game when they raise theirs
They raise their game, we lower our own.

true words
Odunayaw:
Journalist asked him about one of his players, Coulibaly, and Tom narrated how Sassuolo wanted to restrain him from being at AFCON and when he refused they stopped playing him.

He also pointed out the disdain of Europe for the AFCON and the bending over for a quadriennial tournament.
