Starts today.

Features lots of Premier League players including Salah, Mane, Mahrez, Benrahma, Aubameyang, Iheanacho etc.

Predicting Egypt will go very far.

[Crimson Dynamo]

it just causes a lot of headaches for FPL and the prem/spfl

I would not be surprised if one or both of Salah/Mane gets injured tbh.

Hopefully not.

Trouble with Afcon is that since the first game the results have been:

1-0
1-0
1-0
1-0
1-0
0-0
1-0

Never enough goals

[bots]

that is a bit grim. I thought about watching it a couple of times but that has put me right off

[MTVN]

The game after I posted that was 0-0 lol

[Calderyon]

Two 1-0 games more today.

[MTVN]

And now three more :skull:

11 games in a row with one goal or less

[bots]

that's the equivalent of watching greece play in every game at one euro ...... and i hated that :laugh:

[bots]

Tunisia's football federation (FTF) has written to the Confederation of African Football (Caf) to complain about their game with Mali ending 13 seconds early.

The Tunisians were trailing 1-0 when Zambian referee Janny Sikazwe, said to have suffered sunstroke, blew early.

He had already whistled for full-time after 85 minutes, only to notice his error and continue the match.

"We will do whatever it takes to defend the rights of the national team," FTF official Hussein Jenaieh said later.

"We are not children."

:joker:

[Calderyon]

Seeming like a Cameroon v Nigeria final, I possible.

Morocco also a contender.

[Beso]

Bikini fasten go marching onto the last 8

[Calderyon]

So far there has been at least 1 red card on the first half of matches (4) in the knockouts.

Burkina Faso v Gabon (Gabon red)
Nigeria v Tunisia (Nigeria red)
Guinea v Gambia (both had red)
Cameroon v Comoros (Comoros red)

[Calderyon]

Burkina Faso v Gabon had total 14 yellow cards given (Burkina Faso 6, Gabon 7)

[bots]

Sadio Mane scored as Senegal beat nine-man Cape Verde 2-0 in the last 16 at the Africa Cup of Nations, but was immediately forced off with concussion.

Mane curled in off the underside of the crossbar soon after keeper Vozinha had been dismissed over a nasty clash of heads with the Liverpool forward.

Mane continued despite appearing to be briefly knocked out in the incident.

After celebrating his goal he lay down on halfway, and before the game restarted he was led off the field.

It's crazy :laugh:

[Calderyon]

Senegal advanced to the final.

[Denver]

Seeming like a Cameroon v Nigeria final, I possible.

Morocco also a contender.

I guess it wasn't meant to be

Salah vs Mane for the final

[Calderyon]

Egypt advance to the final.

So it is Senegal v Egypt for the championship and Burkina Faso v Cameroon for the bronze.

[Niamh.]

I guess it wasn't meant to be



Salah vs Mane for the finalWho will you be going for? I think I'll be shouting for Senegal [emoji1211]

[Niamh.]

That was an horrific penalty shoot out by Cameroon [emoji879]

[Denver]

Who will you be going for? I think I'll be shouting for Senegal [emoji1211]

Im torn as Salah could win the Balon D'Or by winning but Senegal have never won

[Mystic Mock]

Well that penalty shootout was a letdown.:joker:

[Nicky91]

Cameroon third place, after a 3-3 (5-3 penalty shootout) win over Burkina Faso

:)

[Calderyon]

Senegal v Egypt 0-0:after 90 minutes.

[Calderyon]

Also Mane missed a PK on the 7th minute.

[Calderyon]

Senegal wins AFCON 2022 by defeating Egypt after penalties.

[MTVN]

Glad Senegal won. Egypt been dead boring all tournament barely scoring or creating any chances. Fair play to Mane for that last pen after missing earlier

Poor final though and not a great tournament from what I've seen, far too many goalless games in Afcon

[Calderyon]

All it did was almost confirm that neither Mane and/or Salah will play or start in GW24.

[Crimson Dynamo]

Thank god this is finished
