Kicked off today all matches (I believe) on sky sports.

Hosts Cameroon (though losing as I type) and defending champions Algeria and Senegal favourites to lift trophy

One thing I always wonder what is the feeling towards the AFCON in French league.

There's always uproar in Premier league towards it as teams lose perhaps 2 or 3 players. There must be a few in French league who lose more. (for example Saint Étienne have 7 players gone to the tournament)

2-1 to Cameroon at half time.

League of Ireland might be represented later with Roberto Lopes part of the Cape Verde squad who play Ethiopia at 7pm

Ya he starts for them. Good for the league to see anyone playing international football. They have had some decent results of the last while too.

Won 1-0 , depending on other results in competition might be enough for 3rd place in the group and a place in the next round. 

If i'm honest I can't see either Cabo Verde or Ethiopia taking any points from either Cameroon or Burkino Faso but you never know. 

4 games tomorrow

Senegal v Zimbabwe 
Guinea v Malawi
Morocco v Ghana
Comoros v Gabon

Won't pay the subscription for the Indo so haven't seen his diary with Dan McDonnell but after listening to him on OTB on Saturday it sounds like his preparation for it has been chaotic; manager still in Cape Verde and his original roommate and the replacement both tested positive.

Don’t think the action today would have helped it to gain any respect. It’s a farce.

yesterday was the 3rd straight day of binary score lines in the competition. Only one game out of 12 so far has had more that one goal.
