Gentlemen the African Cup of Nations will be screened live on BBC three every evening from the 24th of January 2003. They will show Nigeria's matches against Morocco and South Africa live and will have their usual highlights package every weekday at around 11.20pm. I guess Eurosport will also be showing the tournament but here is an alternative. I prefer the BBC anyway.

The Eurosports commentators always have a prejudiced mindset against Nigerian players, I guess BBC would be a bit more objective

I hope BBC will have commentators who are used to African football?

They have good commentators and good researchers. The African dept. of the BBC will help them out.

Ayo Odumade ,
Thanks for the update.
Eurosport is the way to go with live matches but will watch the BBC highhlights.
