    Guinea v Ivory Coast final <ok>

    Nigeria would have easily qualified had they used Shola.

    So they'll show just the goals with no replays? Seems to be the acceptable standards for ITV highlights.

    Hopefully! Although you are up against one of the hosts so it could be a tough game.

    Yeah it was always gonna be tough, everytime we've qualified to the ACON in the past we always play the first game against Hosts.. :(

    But to be real, I can see it being a draw or loss, I just don't see us winning for some reason

    You do have a tough group though! I can see you coming 3rd in the group but the fact that Equatorial Guinea are hosts and Senegal have lethal strikers will be just that bit too hard. Weirder things have happened though!

    I can see it being a draw possibly. Guinea are hosts but you'll probably be out to prove something after the overthrow of Gaddafi. Best of luck anyway!

    Thanks :D We're still very delighted that we've even reached the ACON.. considering our players were fighting in a war and haven't played football in 9 months, while teams like Egypt and Nigeria couldn't qualify!

    anyone else noticed cisse hasn't popped up on Fantasy Football yet.. i know its not important yet with him not being available for a while but you think they would have got it out of the way. Henry was put on almost instantly and cahill's club change happened very quickly too. i wanna see his price and see if i can fit him into my team when he is available :( give me cisse god damn it

    No doubt Ba and Cisse will score a ****load to rub salt into the wounds and remind us just how badly shafted we're getting from this ridiculous tournament scheduling.

    I'd rather they score ****loads than not score at all.

    Ba starts, Cisse on the bench. Prefer it the other way round really, get to see Ba play all the time.
