AFCON 2025

[Frogfish]

OK ET is beyond me. It's 05.30 here. Off to bed. Night all.

 

[Bradley]

It's getting good now. End to end.

Senegalese dude just missed an open net.

Actually, keeper somehow got a hand too it.

My main man Mané

 

[Hansern]

Really happy for Sadio. What a guy! What a player!

 

[ibromurph]

Sadio is absolute legend. Saved AFCON tonight from being a farce.

Senegal were cheated out of a goal.

Pen came from an offside that should have been given (but they gave a corner).

Congrats Sadio for once again becoming the King of African football.

Got in there just in time to see the Mane shuffle.

 

[Dreambeliever]

Did he miss the pen on purpose??

 

[Modo]

Did he miss the pen on purpose??

Why would the keeper celebrate if that was the case.

 

[Beamrider]

To paraphrase Logan Roy, AFCON, we love you, but you are NOT a serious tournament.

Yep.

Tried to be too smart and got made to look a twat.

 

[Beamrider]

Yep.

Tried to be too smart and got made to look a twat.

Which is what should happen to every knobhead who tries to do a Panenka.

This will almost certainly be the last big moment of Sadio's career (let's face it, no-one will see anything he does in the Saudi Pro League).
Takes moral high ground, wins the trophy.
The man will be remembered as a King.
