2012 African Cup of Nations

Lovely stuff

Demba Ba will be home early.

At least RVP will have another game or 2 to increase his goal tally.

Senegal

There goes my dark horse.

Surprised that Senegal dropped out that early. Never would have guessed that.

Think everyone was swooned by the emergence of their strike force. Takes an entire team to do well in tournaments. Plus, ask New York fans what they have ever won with Bouna Coundoul in goal

Ivory Coast are playing tonight.

I will be really surprised if they don't win with the team they've got.

Why? Since 2008 they've been playing like Malawi. Got knocked out at the same stage in 08 and didn't even qualify for the tournament in 2010...

Sudan score to tie with Angola, surprisingly.

Ba and Cisse did it intentionally to get back to Newcastle and push for the Champions League

I have to admitt, it would be awesome if you came in and stole fourth right in front of Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal's noses

Sudan have been very wasteful with their chances. If Angola can close Tahir/Mustafa down on the left side then they shouldn't have too many worries.

1-0 Ivory Coast, Kalou with the goal.

I find this match boring =/

Manucho with 3 goals in 2 games now.

I was expecting the Ivory Coast to be a lot better than this...

I haven't seen all the matches, but it seems like this tournament is boring compared to previous editions. Too many entertaining teams missing.

Quality just hasn't been there for me. Angola vs Sudan was unbelieavably scrappy, and Burkina Faso vs Ivory Coast was just dull.

I hate this tournament. The teams with all the high profile players always disappoint.

I agree, been really dull.

Guirane N'Daw is coming back early, nice one Senegal for getting knocked out

2 goals in 2 minutes for Gabon. Gabon are leading 2-1 against Morocco in the last 10 minutes of the match. Earlier today, Tunisia beat Niger 2-1 to book a place in the quarterfinals.

Penalty for Morocco in the last minute.

2-2. Gabon were starting to celebrate a quarterfinal place, shame.

Watched the Niger vs Tunisia match, far too much diving.

Cousin scored

Will be forever know for his goal against Werder Bremen that secured us a semi-final spot in the UEFA Cup

FT: Gabon 3-2 Morocco

Gabon score with a freekick in the last second!!! hahaha

Gabon and Tunisia go through.

Yess, Daniel Cousin

Daniel Cousin I remember him at Hull

Gabon v Morocco was a great game, Brilliant free kick to win it as well.
