Damn Mane missed the penalty!! I’m with Senegal in this game. I hope they win this cup. I can’t stand this Egyptian team winning an 8th title.
That Cup had Nigeria inscribed on it until Osimene withdrew from participating. Then it went to the team that placed second in our group and sadly that team is Egypt. Very unfortunate for Senegal. So anyone that want Senegal to win it should start praying fervently.
You can see the way the Eyptian Goalkeeper is commanding his aerials.
I don’t such attribute from any of our goalkeepers.
No shouting on your players when they are nadly positioned on the pitch.
Funnily, he is the Egyptian second goalkeeper for the tournament.
I would love for Senegal to win this, because it would be their first ever.
However, I would not mind Egypt to win it either, because of the humble, incredibly talented Mo Salah.
I’m as neutral as neutral can be! May the superior side carry the day!
The superior side is obviously Senegal. Egypt holding out for penalties is so nauseating. Given the balance of play, it will be unfair to football and to Senegal if they lose
Is a case of Win the AFCON and miss the world cup or lose the AFCON and qualify for the world cup between these two teams.
Senegal wants it more than Egypt. But trust the north Africans–they can easily switch to negative football to frustrate opponents.
To think Senegal would be the champions by now if Mane had converted that penalty!
O ma se ooo!
Well, they can still salvage it in the penalty shootouts. Make Mane no piss for body oooo. The tension ehn!
Who will be the hero? Mendy or Gabaski?
The drama unfolds!
Gabaski has that commandeering effect on his team and massive confidence. I want senegal to win it for the first time tho…This is another golden generation for them like the 2002 class but nobody gave the 2002 class a chance. Aliou Cisse their current coach was a crucial member of that team.
Mane steps up to give Senegal a commanding lead! 4-2 to Sen egal.
Congratulations, Senegal!
Senegal have “carried” the cup!
Congrats to the Lions of Teranga!
Up up Senegal. Thank you for the victory. It’s for West Africa!!!! Another Senegalese Golden Generation. They another battle for the WorldCup playoffs against same Egypt. They’re the team I feel can represent Africa well in Qatar if they make it past Egypt in a months time. SuperEagles are the only team that defeated this Egyptian team hands down in this tournament. We just have to scale through to Qatar to see the best of our team.
But you and your demise God Dr shit claimed we played rubbish and fancy football to get knocked out but here you are acknowledging something.YOU ARE A HYPOCRITE.
Demi-god
You’re very stupid when did I say we played rubbish against Egypt?? You must be living in fools paradise. I’m sure you didn’t see where I commended the team after the win against Egypt. It’s just unfortunate that your Egudiola stuck to one way traffic that’s the difference when it matters most. A hypocrite is someone that prays for the team to lose because they want the coach sacked and that’s exactly who you are.
I’m new on here and from reading your post in the last few weeks I can deduce that you are follower, a tout, and someone who likes to place curse like you live with the gods. No try that shit with me. I no go follow you swear back and forth here. You are a stupid and idiotic hypocrite. You and your boss started talking in the nonsense as soon as we were eliminated. Na shit full that ego wey u dey carry. Have a blissful day.
You’re a liar you’re just changing your name we know your type here. You’re miserable moron who only come here to look for cheap publicity. Lmao!! That’s why you’re celebrating round of 16 exit. Lmao!! Senegal played rigid and boring football and they won the cup. Stupid nincompoop like you are the ones celebrating round of 16 exit. Lmao!! Na Ṣọpọna go kill you there. Miserable scalawag
It would have been a disservice to soccer forn Egypt to have won. How can a team that pack the bus, and play ugly football; using dirty tricks and reply on counter attack win a tournament. If Egypt represents Africa at the world cup with this their type of play, I’m sorry for them and Africa.
Congratulations Senegal ,a trophy well deserved,my fear is that this senegalese team can overtake our three Afcon trophies easily,we don’t have the quality to win it in the near future .they have quality ranging from goal keeper to defence to attack,full of quality players , playing regular football in big clubs,our own is mainly division two players and quota system and players that want to be highest capped player.once again congrats to MANE and co
Mo Salah, Salah,
No trophy for you today,
At least you have tried your best,
Mo Salah, Salah!
Mo Salah, Salah,
You fought and you lost today,
Now you can go home and rest,
Mo Salah, Salah!
What will be, will be!
U wicked o. Lolzzzzz Za Za Za !!!
Mr Eguavoen or whoever will Coach the SE, should better do something fast about our goal keeping department!
See the two Goalkeepers today or call them shot stoppers! Mendy vs Gabasky! See saves! The goal keepers kept their respective teams in the match till the last whistle.
Okoye is not ripe for SE No 1 period. He should focus on developing himself at club side for now.
Eguavoan look for two talented goal keepers with a Lion’ heart; unbeatable shot stoppers, fabulous reflexes, aerial generals, one-on-one King, penalty savers,…. for the SE. This is important if we must go far.
The earlier the better. World cup and another AFCON beacon!!! Shalom.
Gabasky is from another realm. He is the king of the post.
Gambia too deserve a big congrats for 2 reasons:
1) In their own right: they battled hard, punched above their weight, and slayed a few giants.
A fabulous Afcon for such a small, unheralded side.
2) They are landlocked by winners Senegal. The whole region used to be known as SENEGAMBIA. So, in a way, the cup is with them also. Unless Senegal greedily refuse to share, looooool!!!
