Africa Cup of Nations

[Liverpel]

It’s been tense, as one would expect of a final between two sides with little to choose between them, but entertaining nonetheless.

See how I gave the impression that I was watching the match, and not nicking quotes from the guardian?

Couple of awful fouls in the first half. I wonder what these games were like pre the majority playing in Europe on mega money and the TV cameras. I bet it was carnage.

What a cunt. Ghanian sticks the head in on an ivory coast player and he goes down as if shot.embarrassing.

I don't know if it's a bit racist to laugh at the whole dirty African teams thing. I certainly don't mean to be but there's been some right hatchet man XIs down the years. Remember that Cameroon side that beat Argentina at Italia 90? Benjamin Massing absolutely chopping Caniggia in half after about six other lads had scythed into him. The whole match was mayhem as I remember it.

Loved watching that game. You're right, the Africans used to hack with the best of them.
