The 30th edition of the African Cup of Nations is underway with hosts Equatorial Guinea taking on Claude Leroy in the first match.
In second match 2013 runners up Burkina Faso will face Gabon later tonight.
Equatorial Guinea were given a place at the finals after replacing Morocco – they had been eliminated from qualifying after being penalised for fielding an ineligible player. They are the only side ranked outside Fifa’s top 70 and appointed coach Becker only 11 days before the start of the tournament.
Congo are appearing at their first Nations Cup since 2000. Coach Claude LeRoy won the Nations Cup with Cameroon way back in 1988 and will be at his eight finals – a record. The Red Devils knocked out 2013 African champions Nigeria in qualifying.
Zambia will win tomorrow
Not a bad game though Equatorial Guinea missed sure sitters. A drew not bad at all for Congo.
