This is good news and reflects our current standing on the continent.
Anyway, whether na Pot 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5, we go still helele !!!
They initially released the pots based on a combination of FIFA rankings and previous ANC results and we were in pot 2 based on that

Now they are going strictly by FIFA rankings.

Has FIFA forced their hand on CAF, because UEFA does not use FIFA rankings for their pots for UEFA competitions.

It's baffling from many angles.

How can a country that failed to qualify for the last two CAF Nations' Cups be seeded in that tournament?
Do CAF have any cajons, balls or respect for their tournament?

The joke is on Pinnick because right now, CAF is a treacherous landscape, with too many landmines.
CAF leaders need to look at themselves in the mirror too.

Calm down. If the seeding is based on FIFA ranking, that's a fair, objective basis.

Best Case: Nigeria, Mali, Madagascar, Burundi

Worst Case: Nigeria, Algeria, South Africa, Angola

Algeria and IVC lurking in Pot 2. They will give someone a bloody nose.

It doesn't really matter who we get. NIgeria should be the favorite. I don't agree with Rohr loser talk of not trying to put too much pressure on the team.

...but you beat Algeria stupid in the WC qualifies

Worst Case: Nigeria, GHANA, South Africa, Tanzania(Amunike)

Justification

Naija has not beaten Ghana in like 20 years. In the last game, Ghana annihilated Naija 4-1 in Brentford
Naija struggled against South Africa in the qualifies... with SA beating Naija 0-2 in Naija
Amunike knows all the Naija tricks, so I see Tanzania nicking a point

Naija will be lucky to get out of such a group

One of the safest bet for this Nations cup is a wage on Ghana not winning it. As currently constituted, they are not good enough.

Who is that fine Opeke riding with Rigobert Song in that bus

Thanks for posting the link.

So far just stock music and images of Rigobert Song and a woman riding with the trophy on top of an open double decker bus.

They are doing the draw in the desert. I imagine the heat would be oppressive for a bunch of middle aged execs wearing suits. Plus there is the small matter of getting a TV viewing audience. TV viewing is maximised in the evening. If they do the draw during the day, no one will be at home to watch it except housewives and school drop outs. These things are a business. Advertisers want the thing screened at peak viewing times when they can maximise TV eyeballs on their products.
