Not sure but none of the 8 teams in the QF were in the previous QF which is a bonkers start

You won't be surprised to find that these new stadia a funded (and indeed built) by China, all over Africa 


LOI should be on the phone.

LOL Maybe the FAI and Leinster House did indeed think about getting Chinese money to invest in Irish stadia, infrastructure etc. Trouble is we’ve got bugger all resources to offer in return. Think they’d might want more than just votes at the UN in return.

Afcon going well for Onana 

He flew over late moaned he wasn't playing this after he only arrived 3 hrs before kick off, subsequently played next game conceded 3 goals and has now been dropped. 

Will now probably have another moan after being dropped 😄


His replacement conceded 2 today but they got 2 goals in last few minutes to win 3-2


Benched again for the game against Nigeria. The keeper that's starting ahead of him is the back up keeper for a team who are currently in the relegation zone in the 3rd tier of France.

Also his cousin
