Cote d'voire 3-0 Uganda

Post by Rawlings »

Uganda have been handed a massive reality check ahead of the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations after being whipped 3-0 by champions Ivory Coast in a build-up match Wednesday in Abu Dhabi.

where is our east African comrade?

Zaha scored his first goal for Les Elephants.

I think CIV will win the ANC again.

I dont see any team as balanced. But most importantly they have by far the strongest defence.

Have they figured out their goal keeping situation?

Based on one friendly game, 3 days before the tornament?

All the goals were savable. Our Ethiopian based goalie needs more exposure.

It was 0-0 at half time :)

All goals came after Cranes defensive changes in the 2nd half.

This guy, in these small tournaments you still need reliable players on the bench in case of injuries or red cards etc...

with Zaha in the team a big plus for CIV - reminds of Victor Moses in 2013- only problem with Zaha is blending and adopting playing in Africa- with zero playing time in qualifiers -

My regional brother @Kabalega fear not! :woot:

I'm rooting for the Uganadans as our representative. I predict that the Cranes will qualify as runners-up, behind group winners Egypt.

Fear not. CIV scored during our 10 man defensive formation and Africa's number 1 goalie had taken his gloves off.

I chalk all the goals to poor goal keeping by our Ethiopian based goalie. :boo: Our young Sudanese based boy Jamal Salim would have done better.
