AFCON starts tomorrow!

Always loved watching this tournament, so many crazy moments and great stories over the years.

Shame there's so little interest in it from a betting perspective. Less than 2k matched so far for the Cameroon - Burkina Faso curtain raiser.

Hope Egypt can do the job and cement Mo as the best player in the world.

Have you considered staring a tipster service?

"Sionascaig's Win Lay System" could be a real hit

Why would I?

I'm not tipping anything.

The o/u markets suggested a few goals in the Algeria/Sierra Leone match but 68 minutes in it doesn't look like there'll be more than one, if that.

Most entertaining part of this game is the Algerian coach losing the plot on the sideline! :lol:

0-0

Algeria were shocking, you'd expect more from a team starting at 1.12

Can you imagine what he'll be like if they get to the final?
I think he might burst or do a full toddler tantrum.

Algeria not looking like defending champions.

Africa seems to have embraced the European style and not for the good.
Gone is the extravagant attacking and crude tackling.
I think they need to go back to their own style. On this evidence they aren't as good at %age footy.

Defensive minded European coaches have found success over the years in AFCON so I suppose its the blueprint everyone else tries to follow. Agree with you though, doesn't make for football that's easy on the eye.

Looking forward to Nigeria - Egypt. Nigeria are usually an entertaining watch, Iheanacho and Liverpool's forgotten man Awoniyi up front.

Egypt can be a tough watch under Carlos Queiroz. Tactics seem to be park every bus you can find and give the ball to Salah.

My word the Algeria game didn't set the 🌎 alight absolutely worst than watching Man U 😂
