I'm pissed of the performance of Morocco against Guinea. Henry Michel ruined it. He lined up a defensive formation although Morocco has his best options in his attack. What a shame ? Was he taking guinea for brasil ? Just Awful. Now, we need to beat ghana to go through.

Gotta admit though, Guinea was quite impressive there quite physical and pretty fast (as with all africans) but they were proberly the most determined out there. I think the players and the coach are to blame.. ghana is a tough one. Good luck.

Anyone see Abu Tarika's goal? His shirt read "Sympathize with Gaza".

Problem is, the African Fa might take action against him..at least thats what i heard..hope not.

Our defense is better than Zambia's. That's something I suppose.

he got a yellow card, i thought u get that when u complety take yr shirt off. any way doubt they would do sth to him cos its nothing to be honest its a purely human gesture for palestinans having a rough time.

Ye, that was comedy.

Trika scored one hell of a goal, one that marks out how valuable and witty he is

great performance by Abu Trika

 

[Bisco]

that was some game by tunisa, great first half preformance and they showed extermly good class. there is a pretty good chance they might meet egypt in the comig stage should they finish second yet another fierce derby between us so should be a good game ( not firghtened but would prefer to meet tunisia later on not in the second stage though but angola is'nt any easier so i guess we got our selves yet a strong side to face come next stage). this group D is almost showing its shape. i would'nt count angola out i guess senegal just underestimated them thats why they were stunned today.

not to take anything away from tunisa thought but south africa is really poor this time around there is a massive difference in quality between this team and the one of previous years but my guess is this is the team being prepared for 2010 and i see them getting around for that so most probably just like morocco this is a transition stage that there team is going thru.

that did'nt go well salvatore

 

[Salvatore]

Yeah :frown: A win against South Africa is needed now for a chance of getting through. I didn't see the match because I was watching Juve, but I read that Angola deserved the win.

great move by abu trika as a human gesture for palestinans

yean and looks like he will be banned by the african comitee as fred pointed out. i ve just seen the news. i mean this is out rageous. his gesture by no means meant to hurt any person in this continent yet he gets banned. talk about africa showing the spirit of unity. i mean its just soooooooooooo bloody contradicting it makes me sick that this is a continenet that was hammered by hatred, and racisim yet they have the guts to ban a player who just showed not just his personal feelings but the feelings of an entire nation ( over 75million eygptains and even more arabs). its quite unfair that he gets this ban.

a simple " sympathize with gaza" gets u banned for a game and yellow carded even though he did'nt take off his shirt woooooow. good call by mr refree and the super fair african comitiee for racism and football.wonder what they would've done to him should his shirt have "to hell with isreal" on it would the entire team get back to cairo?!?!?!

i read that he is only yellow carded , is he banned for a game ???
if he wrote to hell with isreal , he will be banned forever

itss till unclear, i woke up and watched this program on art and the guys over there where shit angry!! so i am guessing they r still thinking about it dont know for sure if its offical. we shall watch and see on wednesday when egypt plays zambia.

and yeah u r right he would be banned for life ( sad but makes u laugh really)

hard luck to morocco they deserve to be in the next stage but thanks to there manager, and poor refree calls on them they have been elimnated from this group. i was very impressed by the moroccon goal keeper he seemed to be the only player wplaying with spirit and will. i was very disappointed by hagi he slowed down morocco's offensive move and never really got going.

today morocco got a goal disqualified when it was legal!!! and there were poor refreeing but once again let sbe realisitc morocco blew there chances by losing to guenia and the blame def falls on there manager. good luck in the up coming tournments.

ghana showed there strongest displays yet, they r very strong with the like sof essien, muntari, gyan, and the player who caught my eye agogo. i was upset byt here preformance from the begining of the tournment but as i expected they start slow and reach the top levels with there progress from stage to stage.

have'nt seen the guenia and namibia game so i dont have comments regarding it.

i've heard that there are scouts for spanish teams all over the place in ghana. there are loads of worthy youngsters over there who would cut it out in europe to be honest.

not sure if juventus in particular have scouts there i dont know.

morocco payed the price of loosing against Guinea
