    Not a big surprise. The ref in that game was a joke.

    So the ref blows on 85 mins? Then again on 89.45? After 9 subs, couple pens, a red and VAR check(s)…is this likely match fixing or something?

    Lovely strike from Jallow puts Gambia 1 up against Mauritania. Decent game to watch, so far.

    Heard that ref has been banned before for corruption. Hope he got a decent bung this time because surely he's done after that carry on.

    Joke of a competition.

    The end to that game, the poor games.

    Cancel it.

    Haha it is a complete disaster of a joke :56:

    Obvious max fixing they are not even trying to hide :56:

    Must be infuriating to have to release players like Salah to play in this hilarious joke of a competition.

    Why is everyone’s first touch in this like a baby elephants?

    Struggling to remember seeing such an incoherent, bizarre style of football at any level. There’s absolutely no rhyme or reason to it. Utter pish.

    Yeah, been a good start. 2 goals in ten minutes made for a good start.

    Watched about 3mins of Nigeria match. Whole spectacle was *. For a continent that produces so many talented players the quality of the games always seems to be honking.

    Every game i've seen was * as well, nobody playing decent football or with any style, lot of terrible players giving the ball away every two seconds. The * crowds ruining it as well as the games feel and look like they are being played like friendlies.

    Theres definitely a lack of tactics abut teams, everything just looks done at random, midfielders running about mental guys trying to beat 3 and 4 men and plenty of shocking schoolboy stuff like wild passes and terrible touches and tackles.
