Group A
Equatorial Guinea
Zambia
Senegal
Libya

Group B
Ivory Coast
Angola
Burkina Faso
Sudan.

Group C
Gabon
Tunisia
Morocco
Niger

Group D
Ghana
Guinea
Mali
Botswana


Senegal should win group A
Ivory Coast B and Ghana D. I'm guessing these are listed in "seeding" order? Don't know Gabon, but would expect Tunisia or Morocco to make a showing in Group C.
IMO.

Sudan lost part of itself. They win by default, imo.

didn't a prince in Equatorial Guinea date a Miss Louisiana?

that just proves how terrible the middling African countries are when they get to the "women's" world cup and the men's African Cup. does anybody even know where this shite is on the map?

Group A: Senegal, Zambia
Group B: Ivory Coast, Burkina Faso
Group C: Tunisia, Gabon
Group D: Ghana, Guinea

Ivory Coast should destroy this tournament. SHOULD. They always manage to choke. Hence why Egypt wins so many of these (they didn't qualify for this one), but can never make a World Cup.

Tony Pulis hopes Ba's knee gets messed up.





Cote D'Ivoire should win, but I doubt they will. I'm gonna say that America's Kryptonite wins.

Ba is going to make Newcastle and himself a lot of money if he stays on form.

good thing for arsenal because song gets to stay and not end up hurt.

bold predictions:

1) chamakh gets golden boot

2) mali is the dark horse and makes a good run

Equatorial Guinea beat Senegal today. Apparently their team of mostly semi-pro Spanish immigrant players were crying on the pitch.
