For those who want to comment of the tournament which started yesterday.

Shock Horror…

Mane scored a 98th minute winner via the penalty spot.

Will try to get into it, but the quality is just so droll. The empty stadiums don’t help.

Good few 98 minute plus games for him will have him nice and fresh on his return.

Best comment of AFCON:

 

[tsubaki]

really enjoyed Sudan - Guinea-Bissau

it was absolutely terrible and finished 0-0 but very reminiscent of watching some late-80s game on Sgorio, including the athletic track around the pitch and almost endless hoofs upfield

 

[Obes]

Three games played today. One goal scored in total.

 

[EverTheOptimist]

Awful standard so far, dire games of not much quality.

Usually group games tend to be the best games in tournaments and the knockouts cagey.

Maybe it will be other way around in this Afcon.

Shame, hopefully he gets kicked a bit more in the next games then.

The Ref Janny Sikazwe of that game lol

On 20 November 2018, he got provisionally suspended by the CAF Disciplinary Board on suspicion of corruption following the way he handled the CAF Champions League match which Espérance de Tunis won 4–2 in semifinals second leg over Primeiro de Agosto.
