Woooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

 

[Swansman]

Crazy goal

 

[Dave the hatosaurus]

What a goal from Malawi , this game is starting better !
Also liking the size of the numbers on their shirts , good for commentators .

 

[Jeep]

Hopefully Biss will be playing for Mali at 7pm on sky tonight. I think I'll allow myself a midweek beer in front of the TV.

 

[Seagull58]

Another under 1.5 goals almost in the bag. This tournament is as dire as any in my lifetime.

 

[Dave the hatosaurus]

Anybody else think that Mo Salah deliberately chose to send Ivory coast up first in the shootout so he could have the chance being the fifth taker to be the one to put Egypt through ?

 

[Coldeanseagull]

Biss starts. Malis no.17 looks ready made for a move to watford

Yep, it's called taking responsibility!

Some superb penalty taking from Egypt so no wonder he was so confident , have to agree he made the right choice .
God i wish we had someone that good at penalties !

I love this ref. Hyper aggressive and hates everyone.

You've said that for previous AFCON refs too. It must be the style. They certainly love a red card.

Yeah I thought this was the same guy but might not be since he has calmed down a bit. But this seems like a funny bloke as well.

Not sure it is the style but they certainly have more personality than the average European ref.

Bissouma lays it on a plate 8 yards out and his teammate can't even hit the target.⁶

Strange comment from the summariser, that it wasn't a great ball from Biss as there was a slight bobble...

 

[highflyer]

Bissouma off, despite looking the best player on the pitch.

As aBrighton supporter, I'm fine with that - but wouldn't be happy if I supported Mali!

 

[Change at Barnham]

Bissouma substituted off after 70 mins.
Still 0-0.

Yeah, nonsense

 

[amexer]

With so many talented players in most teams cant quite understand why so many games are dull. Looking at these games can understand the popularity of PL round the world

 

[Official Old Man]

Biss taken off. Am I allowed to hope Mali lose so he can come home? Into extra time.
