AFCON 2021: Ihleanacho’s goal seals victory for Nigeria against Egypt

Nigeria have started their Africa Cup of Nations campaign with a brilliant victory over Egypt on Tuesday.  The Super Eagles struck in the first half through Kelechi Ihleanacho and that proved to be sufficient to earn them a 1-0 win at the Roumdé Adjia Stadium.  The Leicester City player received the ball from Joe Aribo and fired into the top corner to put his side ahead in the 30th minute of the game.  Egypt failed to mount a comeback in the second half, with star footballer Mohamed Salah unable to replicate his amazing Premier League form for his country.  The Liverpool forward hardly touched the ball and his only notable scoring attempt was blocked by Maduka Okoye’s foot and cleared.  Nigeria boss Augustine Eguavoen, who replaced Gernot Rohr after an unimpressive...

AFCON 2021: “We had a lack of experience,” Burkina Faso captain says after defeat

Bertrand Traore has said that a lack of game management cost Burkina Faso a 2-1 defeat in their Africa Cup of Nations opener.  The Stallions scored the first goal but conceded two penalties to lose their first AFCON game against Cameroon at the weekend.  Traore set up the first goal of the match, delivering a brilliant cross that was converted by Gustavo Sangare in the middle of the first half.  However, the team captain then clumsily brought down Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa to concede a penalty, which was superbly converted by Vincent Aboubakar.  The host nation got another penalty opportunity to extend the scoreline when Issoufou Dayo slid in on Tolo.  Aboubakar again made no mistake and managed to put his side in a commanding position for victory.  Burkina F...
