I don't entirely get the point to expanding this. Always been a shite tournament. It's a shame too because it has so much potential to be great, some real talent in here, but it just ends up being a tactical farce. Africa is a big continent so I do kind of see a need for expanding, but I also think it will dilute the little quality there already was.

Anyhow, I'd like Egypt to win this. 10 years ago they had a golden generation that won every tournament, but couldn't quite qualify for the World Cup. Now it's the opposite. A team that qualifies for the World Cup but can't quite win the AFCON. Even though they did get to the last final!

Watching DR Congo vs Uganda. The latter leading right now with big Patrick Kadou getting on the scoresheet. He doesn't even have a wikipedia page!

Youcef Atal with one of his trademark bursts into the box gets brought down and Bounedjah puts away the penalty. Algeria 1-0 Kenya

Some great work by Bennacer to put it on a plate for Mahrez and it's 2-0 at half time.

And has continued to do that in 2nd half really well. 

Been good defensively too.

Benin won 4-2 on penalties, first upset of the tournament

Ziyach just went out of gas in the final stages, missed a penalty in injury time and then skyed a shot near the six yard box in extra time
