Mad one this
For those unaware the Ref blew the Final whistle in the 88th minute , talk Ref was suffering from heat stroke and got confused, other reports stating he just really needed to go and was suffering from stomach cramps and didn't want to do a Gary Lineker. Does seem a bit dodgy though as Ref had previously been linked to match fixing issues.

Algeria embarrassed.
I couldn't believe how bad Algeria were particularly near the end they were clueless. |

The standard (as usual) is absolutely horrific. Ive watched 3/4 games.
Time to scrap it. Top 4 African teams should play in the Euros. Waste of time.

The tournament is to find champions of Africa - It's standard should not be tied to questions about is existence.

Agreed, What games have you watched btw, because I think some of the games have been great. I'd also argue that some of the games during the Euro's last year were horrendously bad Austria v Ukraine and Spain v Sweden for example. As Double Maxim pointed out the way Algeria have played so far has been a surprise , Ivory Coast dropping points to Sierra Leone too was a shock result but also a pretty decent game.

It tends to be a bit warm in most parts of Africa in June.

Fair enough, I thought it was a decent game. Yes there was the clanger from the Ivorian keeper but again there was similar keeper mistakes during the Euros too. I would actually like to know who you'd classify too as the top 4 African teams. Because at the moment by Fifa rankings it's Senegal Morocco Algeria Tunisia Of those 4 only Morocco have picked up maximum points. |

I doubt most African nations would want the tournament held in SA every time!

There's loads of countries that could host it. Just stay away from the equator! |

What do rankings mean ? Look at Belgium over the past 5/6 years, won nothing. England over the years ranked in top 3, won nothing. |

OK well then let me re ask my question as you never really answered it, how would you determine who are the Top 4 African teams?? The semi finalists of the previous AFCON, Algeria (champions), Senegal (runner up) , Nigeria (3rd Place) Tunisia (4th place) Again of those 4 Nigeria are the only one's not to drop points so far this tournament. |
