Bloke invades the pitch, runs into the goal netting and gets his foot stuck. How many security men does it take to escort a happy African off the pitch. About 15 apparently.
Only just seen the goals, nothing by his standards, not even the best two goals he's scored in one game!

We've got 13 minutes of stoppage time in the Algeria v Togo game. The goalposts came out of the ground.
Ivory Coast the first team through with two wins (and Gervinho amazingly a standout player). Togo scored with their only shots on target to win 2-0 and knock highly ranked Algeria out.
Zambia are out. Mayuka should be available for Saturday now. With that news and with Lallana near returning, surely it means De Ridder's appearances in the match day are severely numbered now.
Yorkshire born referee Daniel Bennett, who whistles under the South African flag, having a "difficult" game here.
I'm hoping Togo go through in this one. Adebayor should have had a penalty but for some weird reason it wasn't given.
A bit before that a Togo defender brought down someone on the edge of the box, and the ref randomly booked a completely different person for it.
