AFCON 2024

[philll]

Half of the Mali team (not Biss) is going at the ref for blowing the final whistle. Crazy end tbh but Mali have had the man advantage since the first half and conceded 2 goals.

Just switched it on to see the final whistle. Why were Mali so pissed?

Watched only the second half in extra time, but I guess it was for he blew the whistle and that they've f****d up 11v10 for 70 minutes? And I think some of them didn't think it was a free kick that led to the goal. But that was a clear foul.

Didn’t add much time on considering Ivory Coast celebrated for a good 2 minutes. Pissed of Malians.
I think the ref had a go back at one of them too.

Will Biss be ok when her returns though or will the effects linger for a few more games?

Impossible to tell tbh. We'll just have to wait and see.

Save of the season by the SA keeper there. Wow.

AFCON injury time is something else. Always drama.

The save before extra time was also unreal and then 4 saves in a penalty shootout?! What a dream performance.

Please add more players to the midfield!

This is too much.

Holy shit. 2-0 to Nigeria only for it to be ruled out and a penalty given at the other end

I've been waiting for this to happen since VAR got introduced lmao

I saw the replay - the VAR camera looked like it might have been in a different stadium.

 

[worcestersauce]

Big VAR call to get South African player sent off as last man but never checked the Nigerian was offside when he started his run.

 

[tobi]

fuck

 

[worcestersauce]

Penalties, big call by the Nigerian manager taking off Osimhen five minutes from a penalty shoot out.

 

[tobi]

Fuck yes

 

[BorjeSpurs]

Good luck @tobi

 

[worcestersauce]

Cote d'ivoire are a bit of a bunch of Drogbas ain't they going down a bit easy like they've been polaxed.

 

[worcestersauce]

Nigeria really need to try playing with a midfield that can at least get within shouting distance of Osimhen, they really ain't giving him a thing to work with.
Also I'd have thought AFCON would have put their best officials in charge of the final but they seem to have gone the other way.
