    Haha...it reminds of my dog and the carpet.

    Can't think which movie or computer game character that keeper reminds me of

    I want that goalkeeper at Saints. No ifs, no buts, no maybes. Cortese I will forgive you unreservedly for the events of the last week if he is a Saints player by the end of the window.

    Finally a Mali goal, and surely the first 3 points of the competition. Niger are not nice to watch, but their gameplan worked for 85 mins.

    Who plays for Mali who I'd have heard of? I'm discracefully ignorant about African football.

    I hope Mali do well. And just think, if those Al-Qaeda tossers got their own way, Mali wouldn't even have a football team.

    A red card for the Ethiopa keeper... for serious foul play!! <laugh>

    Ethiopia goalkeeper Jemal Tassew is sent off for dangerous play. He hurt himself in the challenge and was lying on the stretcher as the referee brandished the red card

    Speaking of keepers, Maweene is excellent. Where does he play?

    Statisticians Infostrada Sports on Twitter: "Zambia have now seen an opponent's player sent off with a red card in three of their last four AFCON matches."

    What a stupid comment! What else is the referee meant to send a player off with!

    Collins Mbesuma! His career had gone rather quiet.

    Bloody hell, an ex-Portsmouth player scored. A quite infamous ex-Portsmouth player at that. And class celebrations.
