[Football] AFCON 2019 Official Thread

[Mellotron]

All kicks off on Friday. 6 groups when standard wise realistically there should probably be 4, some real minnows in there.

Thought it would make sense to have a thread for this. Can't decide what piques my interest more, seeing Balogun play or the possibility of seeing Zaha crying.

Available on Eurosport UK, for those who want to know how they can watch.

It is now that the world will see the true king emerge. The lion of Judah. The chosen one.

****. Hadn't even thought of that. And he's up against Zaha in Group D. Mouth-watering.

So,

Leon Balogun - Nigeria
Gaetan Bong - Cameroon
Percy Tau - South Africa

Ludicrous that Yves Bissouma hasn't made the Malian national squad.

Not like he’s had an operation or anything

In all seriousness though, that's a shame.

AFCON? Is that another of those annoying airshow acronyms that pop up in thread titles that nobody can be arzed to Google?

 

[hans kraay fan club]

SO much football on at the moment.

Women's World Cup
AFCON
CONCACAF Gold Cup
Copa America
U21 Euros

Its a struggle to find the time to get anything done. Good job there's no cricket at the moment.

Will Balogun get a game tomorrow ?

Striker target Samatta should feature for Tanzania on Thursday.

And Percy plays again on Friday.

That's easy, it's Senegal

Presumably the albion earn cash for the participation of Bong, Balogun and Tau ?

I’d sooner they all had slight ankle injuries keeping them fresh and fit for us, but good luck to them.

Since when did you have to start paying for Eurosport? And what's on there that could possibly warrant it?
