Two matches today, only one goal — and it was a penalty to those dastardly Black Stars of Ghana.

CATCH THE EXCITEMENT

The pitch for the matches today was horrendous. Has it been like that at all of the stadiums?

Because, CAF.

They play two matches each match day at the host stadiums. The pitch for the final should be in pristine condition, after hosting ten matches.

Great goalkeeping continues here in Gabon, as the Burkinabé keeper tackles Aubameyang and concedes a penalty.

Auba converts.

Only THE LORD will grant our GABON WARRIORS TO DO HIS WILL!

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh man, we've got Guinea-Bissau coming up...

Their best players all play for either Portuguese B squads or the J-League, so you know this is gonna get good.

Tunisia 2, Algeria 1

Tunisia went up shortly after the break and then draws a penalty on a volley and a busted clearance attempt from an Algerian who tried to head it back to the GK from 40 yards out. The Tunisian then goes in on a breakaway and pulls himself down in the box with the defender on his heels (yet no real contact) and draws a penalty.

Match fixing is in full effect

I've got them pegged to win the cup. Solid squad. As I'm typing this, they just went up 1-0 vs. Zimbabwe early with a Mane goal haha

Ivory Coast and DR Congo are locked in a 2-2 draw in the second half, which means they've used up all the goals for the next four matches.

Side note: Kate Abdo apparently works for Fox Sports on their Bundesliga coverage now.

ETA: Freiburg up on Bayern early on a ridiculous ping pong sequence.

ETA2: Lewandowski stoppage time winner on a ridiculous volley. Bayern gonna Bayern.
