I smell a rat here, what sort of grouping puts all the power houses in the same group. Hmm CAF presido don start. I guess they want minnows to represent them.

Hmm, a very TOUGH group again. How do we end-up in these groups of death, by the way?

It’s an 8 team tournament with 2 groups of 4 so the likelihood of having to play in such a group is high!

Yes. Very tough group. I'm beginning to have my doubts about Imama's ability to coach this team, particularly, if we use home based players for the qualifying tournament.

Just about to remind DIMKA76. The other group might actually be tougher.

Yes. The 2 finalists plus the 3rd place match winner qualify for the Olympics.
