    Yep. Sounds like Marseilles got off lightly. Not like they have got a history of corruption or anything...

    You clearly never watch Pointless.

    I always have Sao Tome and Principe in the back pocket.

    Once upon a time it was Central African Republic, now that's passé in the extreme.

    9 minutes into the Cote d'Ivoire match and Wilf has won a peno; shock horror!

    It was a clear pen tbf. Ivory Coast creates lots of chances but their finishing is dreadful.

    Amazed to discover that Steven Caulker is making his international debut for Sierra Leone at centre back in this tournament. Good for him.

    Can't wait for us to integrate him into the squad with Alcacer.

    Algeria just lost to Equatorial Guinea. They need a win against Ivory Coast to go through now. This group is by far the most interesting one.

    Great goalkeeping by the Ivory Coast number 1:



    Think someone needs to check his bank account.

    He's not exactly desperately scrabbling with all his might to recover once he's made the mistake, is he?!? Just takes his front-row seat. Amazing.

    He went off injured after that. Crushing embarrassment the cause presumably. Serge Aurier ended the game in goal.

    A goalie can't carry on once his hands have clearly fallen off.

    Another goalless draw for Senegal.

    Maybe missing that creativity Sarr would bring hence them being so keen to have him fit.

    Mind you still finished top of their group.

    Great.

    Absolutely setting the scene for AL to drop “Ekong returning from AFCON in form, with confidence restored will be like a new signing, and as such, the club feel with Kabasele also a week away from returning, they are well stocked at the back.”
