The first day being completed in all the groups, it is time for a first assessment. Clearly Nigeria, Mali and Morocco are the three teams that impressed me the most, but we’ll have to confirm later. I do not name Cameroon in this trio, although it is the team that has scored the most goals. Lions who will have to go for the best in their game this Thursday against Ethiopia.
The Ivory Coast had the merit, Wednesday evening, not to take Equatorial Guinea by the leg. The Elephants have gone through a mouse hole facing a tough opponent. And they provoked this chance with a good start to the match.
Also on Wednesday, Mali displayed a conquering spirit, without speculating on the intentions of its Tunisian opponent. Unfortunately, this success was overshadowed by the completely incomprehensible behavior of referee Janny Sikazwe. I think he had his moment of madness. Unless there are other reasons to explain his decision to stop the match before the end, but it is only him or the medical profession to explain it to us.
