[Football] African Cup of Nations, Final

[Guinness Boy]

Poxy Sky sports cut off at the final whistle......

Only if you were on Main Event. And they played a clear warning that it would carry on on Sky Sports Football

Poxy Sky sports cut off at the final whistle......

How annoying was that!

Spare a thought for anyone who didn’t make the squad for the champions. Especially any who ‘switched allegiance’ to be the ‘star man’ at Ivory Coast. Imagine that eh.

Imaging doing all that and then not getting picked over a player who was only going to be fit for half the tournament.

Pascal?

Only if he's MOM in the Final.

 

[BrightonCottager]

Ivory Coast deserved that and your lad played well

 

[LamieRobertson]

Well least we won’t have to give SA time to go back to his home country like AliMac, he’s already there!

 

[BNthree]

Just had drone footage flying round the stadium and hardly anyone has left early. Gonna be some massive queues for the train!

Danny Shittu (snigger) giving Simon big love on Sky - and he’s on there as the voice of the Nigerian team!

 

[Steve in Japan]

World Cup - check.
AFCON - check.
Euros - over to you, Lewis. And Billy.

Bloody amazing if you think about it! Fantastic!

 

[Sussexscots]

Adingra has been transformative for the Ivorians.

Really looking forward to having him back. Hope he gets the same reception Ali Mac got. Just amazing we've had a world cup winner and an African nations cup winner in consecutive seasons.

I hope the club do something for Simon like they did for Al Mac

Shittu in a tutu!

 

[Sarisbury Seagull]

Brilliant! Congratulations Simon, what a performance!

So like Mac Allister in the World Cup too - coming in late and transforming the team.

Pascal?

Indeed with Pascal Dunk and Billy we'll have Pascal's triangle.

 

[peterward]

Ivory Coast deserved that and your lad played well

Assist for both goals, a great performance and winning the AFCON.

This is the biggest moment in the young fellas life, and when you read of his struggles to get to this point.

Very very happy for Simon

Ooooer Missus!

 

[Gluteus Maximus]

Been given man of the match.

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

Delighted for him.

Looked a real threat throughout.

Hopefully, this will give him even more confidence for the run-in.
I wonder if the club will let him celebrate for a week prior to his return…

 

[Eeyore]

It’s a fair way off watching an awful Côte d’Ivoire get hammered in their group game before the Wolves match and secretly celebrating because we’d get Simon back unscathed.

Wasn't there a thread suggesting he was already a few miles above the Canaries ?
