VillaChris Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Equatorial Guinea are a total and utter joke. Ban them for 100 years from international football or whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted February 5, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted February 5, 2015 It would appear the highlights don't quite do the conclusion (or rather the aftermath) of this game justice. This ref has been banned for 6 months for "a poor performance". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Tunisia are quite rightly refusing to apologise and therefore looks like they will be banned until taking part in ACON until 2017. At last a team with some balls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted February 6, 2015 Moderator Share Posted February 6, 2015 Tunisia are quite rightly refusing to apologise and therefore looks like they will be banned until taking part in ACON until 2017. At last a team with some balls.How you can ask a team for an apology whilst simultaneously banning the very ref they're complaining about for 6 months is beyond me. Yes I know the reasons for the ban and for the complaints are slightly different, but it's still a bit rich on the part of the AFC.Unfortunately this Cup of Nations, from what I've seen, has played up to all the old stereotypes of African football. It has been a hilarious disaster of corruption, naive but entertaining football, terrible terrible refereeing, crowd trouble through lackadaisical security and it has done nothing to enhance the reputation of that continent in any way, shape or form. It has taken a step back. The only constant is that you could probably have predicted the 2 finalists. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoelVilla Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 A very nuts penalty shootout in the final. The goalie for Ivory Coast with the winner with the 11th penalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted February 8, 2015 Moderator Share Posted February 8, 2015 Enjoyed that, 22 penalties with the winner struck by a keeper who'd feigned injury twice during the shootout in order to play mind games. Should have been three off in the first half, ref was crap - magic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chappy Posted February 8, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted February 8, 2015 Without a doubt the oddest shoot out I've ever seen! Gutted for Ghana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Penalties and Avram Grant don't mix in cup finals do they? Feel for Ghana given they way they went out of 2010 world cup of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted February 9, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted February 9, 2015 Not often you see a team come from 2 down in a shoot out. Lovely stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
