Another Portugal loading in African football

quote author=skulnascam post=79988397]
10-man Benin stunned Africa Cup of Nations title contenders Morocco in a penalty shootout on Friday to reach the quarter-finals after a 1-1 draw in Cairo.


Moise Adilehou forced home at a corner early in the second half to put Benin on course for a shock win but Youssef En-Nesyri equalised for Morocco before Ajax star Ziyech blew the chance to snatch victory by striking the post from the spot in the 96th minute.



Benin were forced to play most of extra time a man down after Khaled Adenon received a second yellow card for dissent, but they prevailed 4-1 in the shootout following misses by Sofiane Boufal and En-Nesyri to set up a clash with Senegal or Uganda on July 10 for a spot in the semi-finals.


With this, Benin have now played a total of 13 games in the history of the African Cup of Nations without winning a single game. This year they only scraped through to the knockout rounds on the back of three draws after holding both Ghana and reigning champions Cameroon.

The same way Amechi became a governor without contesting in the general election. Who said you can't be what God ordained you to be. Even against the run of play... anything can happen.

I know that very well....they aren't Nigerians but Beninese...don't forget Yoruba is a major language of Benin Republic.angelique kidjo singa in yoruba because her mama is beninois Yoruba,not the nigerian Yoruba...the fact that they have egun,Yoruba bad Hausa tribes in their country doesn't make the. Nigerians...there are hausas and fulanis in Ghana,Mali, niger,Burkina Faso etc ...that doesn't make them nigerians

You are right and wrong. 18% of Bini population are of the Yoruba tribe. They are Yorubas BUT they are NOT Nigerians.

Of course, but this one is something new, like they have not won a single match, but they are in the quarter finals.

Only sports bet maestros go understand not winning any match.

Like say penalty shoot out no dey part of the game
They don't count penalty as winning in football record. Like the game yesterday between Benin n Morocco is a draw in full time.
The penalty was to decide who move to the next round.
