Guinea 2 vs Senegal 3 official thread

I don't know what match you guys are watching but if not for the howler by our dear Silva, Senegal would look the more likely team to win it as at the half. They've been creating more and more chances since that goalkeeping error.

We need a Guinean goal at the beginning of the second half to settle this as a contest. Fancy Guinea vs DR Congo in the semi final!

I am very pleased we are meeting Tunisia and not Guinea in the quarter finals. These Guineans would have given the Eagles the game of their lives.

They are certainly better than any of the teams we have met so far.

I agree. Ayo. But do not give them the kiss of death, they are not in the Semis yet, there is a long way to go in this match.

The Guinea have long had a tradition of being top ballers - Remember Horoya and Hafia. I am happy to see them back with a bang. I have always admired Guinean football even though I underestimated their team in this tournament.

As for Tony Sylva,

...and Coly, before he was sent off.

What surprises me is that the EPL stars have not really lived up to their billing: Henri Camara, Amdy Faye and Papa Bouba Diop have been less than stellar in this competition.

Diomansy Kamara and Diouf have played well in the comp.

Muhahahaha......weren't you holding brief for Sylva only a couple of hours ago???

Senegal was desperate against SE so went all out.
Looks like Diouf's absence is being felt on the field.

Guinea is playing them, true, but am not really impressed with the Guineans myself. They can't seem to string passes together.
I dont agree with your first point. If Senegal was desperate to make it to the 1/4 Finals then they should have known you play the 1/4 final like there was no tomorrow. So if imply say they took their foot of the gas, then I am sorry they are just a bunch of names who dont really inspire.
Also if Guinea is not inspiring but a goal up and dominating then it justifies my inital point- that Senegal is really not the Senegal we knew in 2002.
I've been saying this forever, but Ayo and megapro are still stuck in the past.

Senegal is playing, no doubt about it. BUt there is no Diouf to make the penetrating runs/passes. There is something missing in their game.

Me think the player they miss the most is their play maker Fadiga!

I have not disputed that but do you admit that they are still a better team than Ghana? The best two teams in Group D went through to the quarter finals.

no wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Feinduno is something special!

I wonder why Fadiga didn't even go to the nations cup???

Ayo Akinfe · Post by **Ayo Akinfe** » Fri Feb 03, 2006 3:01 pm

Bobo Balde headed a corner wide. It should have been two nil!

Stop deluding yourself. Imagine what Guinea would do to the Black Stars!

Meanwhile, Diarso, the Guinean goalkeeper is a real short one. He drops the ball as if it is a wet bar of soap!

Altobelli · Post by **Altobelli** » Fri Feb 03, 2006 3:04 pm

KAI!! This Guinea goalkeeper is a "goalkeeper kyi mframa" ooo he might very well let Senegal back into this game.

tfco · Post by **tfco** » Fri Feb 03, 2006 3:04 pm

Guinea GK and aerial balls = bad combo.

Did you guys see him flapping at that cross just now. And the ball was being ping-poneged inthe penalty box before GK got hishands on it. Waek link right there.

Gives a new meaning to Guinea fowl..

I totally disagree! You can't lose to both Ghana and Togo and still be better than them. No way!! I'm sure if Angola got their @$$ na wahalla for them too!
