First half had me thinking they were not as good as ranking suggested but second half they looked much better and as you say 2nd was a really good goal. 1 Quote

Jute Posted December 23 Author Report Posted December 23 Senegal won second game 3-0 but really should have been more. Miles ahead of Botswana. Nigeria beat Tanzania 2-1 in a game that was a lot closer than I was expecting. Quote

manc_don Posted December 24 Report Posted December 24 Had hoped to catch some of this today when most of the family fucked off, but hadn’t accounted for my wife telling my boys they could come downstairs and watch home alone on the tv been any good? I mind seeing D’Jaffo score against Hearts at Pittodrie, flicked finish if I recall correctly? Quote

Jute Posted Wednesday at 14:35 Author Report Posted Wednesday at 14:35 Wild finish to game though with Equatorial Guinea taking lead with 5 minutes left but Burkina Faso manged ro win game by scoring twice in injury time. Quote
Jute Posted Wednesday at 15:50 Author Report Posted Wednesday at 15:50 Algeria 1-0 up at half time and Sudan reduced to 10 men. With some of tackles they have been putting in I will be surprised if they reach 90 with 10. Quote

Jute Posted Wednesday at 19:31 Author Report Posted Wednesday at 19:31 Senegal win 3rd game 1-0 in torrential rain. Senegal on top for most of game and should have won by more. Quote
