Re: Africa Football Discussion Thread || Current discussion: African teams at Qatar.
You are the king of underdogs, I won't be surprised if you get this one right, I'm also expecting Ronaldo to have a difficult game with everything that has been going on with him recently, it's unfortunate that none of the African teams who have played have yet to register a single goal at the moment, maybe Ghana will give us the first goal and the first win. After what Japan did to Germany today, Ghana @8.40 is a good risk.
And I will forever regret not betting on Saudi, but yeah, this tournament is already in profit for anyone always betting against the favourites. Ghana actually as high as almost 10/1 and slowly coming down so that's always a good sign for me.
Inaki will want to really really build on his uptake this year, and you never know Ayew, he turns up with a mad run down the flank like he does for Palace and he's gold.
Ghana vs Portugal. Ronaldo will be overly keen to do well after his fallout with United, worth going for a meltdown and Ghana slim win?
Yaps! I hope to see the fully motivated Cristiano Ronaldo on the score sheet, to be the first to score in five world Cup appearance. Nah! No chance for Ghanians to win. I'm a bit biased though
I actually prefer him to please retire so the many talents on his team can finally switch to a formation that suits them, and maximise their rapid play. Jota, Sanchez (I know they're injured but I mean for the future), Felix, Fernandes, and others...
I'm team Ghana today!
