[Football] AFCON 2019 Official Thread

South Africa playing for a draw but suckered punched out of the tournament with a last minute goal!

 

[drew]

So, no top 50 for South Africa.

So, no top 50 for South Africa.

Best 4 of the 6 3rd placed teams go through, so perhaps unlikely but maybe possible ?

Could do with Senegal v Kenya NOT being a draw ( 0-0 after 62 mins ).

And Senegal score...

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

South Africa currently 3rd of 4 3rd placed teams.

I think if Cameroon beat Benin tomorrow ( other permutations possible ), then South Africa will be through to the next round...

 

[Greeko]

They would also qualify for the last 16 if Mali beat Angola

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Cameroon v Benin - draw.

South Africa is now the 4th ranked 3rd placed team.

All on the last 2 games tonight..

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Percy needs a Mali goal.


Bong will be facing Balogun in the next round, so 1 of them is out of the competition on Saturday night.

Benin have never won an AFCON match in their history, but now in the quarter finals.

Balogun v Bong 5pm today. Best of luck to them both.




Percy Tau v Egypt at 8pm. Luck to the lion likewise.

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Neither Balogun nor Bong in the starting XIs.


Maybe Bong can sit beside Karl Toko Ekambi and let him know that we still need a striker.

Don’t think Bong has played a single minute yet

Don’t think Bong has played a single minute yet

Played v Ghana.


But now Bongy is coming home.

Percy looks like a bit of a bargain.
