Anybody following the African Cup of Nations

Is anybody here following the 26th edition of the African Cup of Nations being held in Ghana ?

The hosts will kickstart proceedings today evening against Guinea.

No Stephen Appiah for Ghana, but they do have Essien, Muntari, Mensah, Pantstil, Asamoah and a host of others.

 

im waiting for it i hope we can keep the cup for the 6th time (Egypt) since we r the only country that won it 5 times

 

Yes I am following the African Nation Cup and I am sure Ghana will start with win today.

 

Well you've heard of it now

Have a look at the teams here.

Ghana beating Guinea 2-1 thanks to a late goal from Sulley Muntari. The pitch wasn't the best one- it didn't suit Ghana's style of play.

John Pantsil in hospital after complaining of dizziness.

 

I dont get soccer from african or asian countries mostly just the americas and europe...but it would be nice for ghana to take..only time i watched them was in the WC

 

Nah, damm.

Im in Australia.

So there like no way of watching it. Im going to search online. Hopefully some site is streaming.

 

Wow almost all goals so far come from EPL players.
Mali 1-0 Benin: Frederic Kanoute ( EX. Spurs player )
Nigeria 0-1 Ivory Coast: Salomon Kalou (Chelsea )

 

Kanoute plays for Lyon now?

Right?

Hes an awesome player.

 

He is a great player but he is not from Lyon but he is playing for Sevilla FC.

 

Yeh, thats right. With Diego Forlan i think.

Rohit, what do you think of Tim Cahill?

 

Forlan is good player but he didn't get many chance with Manchetser United.

Yes Tim is a good player and very talented one. I wonder how many years he will play for Everton. I am sure he will move to bigger clubs.

 

Yeh well he carries Australia. In the world cup they only made it to the second round because of him.

hes going to go to Chelsea i have been hearing. I think he will score even more goals for them.

 

Well today's matches are:

Egypt v Cameroon
Sudan v Zambia.

It should be easy game for Egypt. For second match I can't say anything because I never seen any of those team in action.

 

I fancy Cameroon , ivory Coast or ghana to lift it this time. However, Samuel Etoo does give a huge huge edge to the indomitable lions.

 

Well for me there are three teams which I think can won this year ACN.
Ghana, Egypt and Nigeria.

 

Cameroon to me are the darkhorse. I have loved watching there style of play for the last ten years.

I expect Ghana to win but doubt if they actually can.

 

I saw the Morocco - Namibia game, and they really killed them.
My money is on Bafana Bafana - eh, I have to at least support my country

 

I've heard that Benni McCarthy is out of this year's tournament. Oh yeah..What the hell happened to Quinton Fortune..He was such a bright prospect..
