AFCON 2023 PREVIEW - Which Players Will Star? | Morning Footy | CBS Sports Golazo

[@Trance18]

Of course wishing the best for My Morocco , I believe this generation has to win this AFCON , we had some great generations but always came short , but AFCON is different than any other international tournament , literally you can never assume the winner by the current form, there are 5 favorites being Morocco , Senegal , Nigeria , Ivory cost and Egypt as always but everything can happen Algeria and Mali are great on paper and could go far in the competition also .

[@DZWarrior23]

As an Algerian, I truly believe Morocco will win this Afcon. Morocco is the most complete team on paper. InshaAllah Algeria 🇩🇿 and Morocco 🇲🇦 will meet in the finals 🤲🏼

[@Trance18]

@@DZWarrior23 that`s the thing , on paper means nothing in Africa as you know , there are always surprises , but I hope inchallah we do great and I wish well for Algeria as well , I think the final is not possible giving the groups structure ,so we might meet in the semis if everything goes right for both teams.

Morocco will run deep, they are talented and play for the win, they are confident and put them for sure in the Semi, then it’s everyone Cup, The Cup will be either Senegal, Morocco, Mali or Egypt

[@bayodemayowa8967]

My experience on AFCON is that they'll always be surprises. Ivory coast win the trophy can actually happen when history comes to play.

[@nadjibmennouni975]

Algeria to win cause as a team they are the best , as indivisuals ... Nigeria and Cote Divoire .... Egypt will have a saying ...

[@Wiserhuman1]

Algeria has no tactical discipline and is really bad defensively. Same could be said about Nigeria Ivory Coast The only two teams that have a chance are Egypt and Morocco as they are meticulously disciplined tactically, have an iron defense and each a goalkeeper who can play hero on penalties.

@@brotaku8619 I just saw that video after and he said, “while they’re good historically, they can probably get out of the group stage but after that its unknown for them” which I agree with as an Egyptian but just look at the side banner they have with the betting on that video and this video. Egypt is not even on there!! 😳🤯 lol putting DR Congo and South Africa as higher chance of winning the WHOLE tournament over Egypt is beyond WILD 😂😂😂 but I like it. We’ll be the “underdogs” lmao

[@novellprice132]

It is anyone's cup to win as in any African country's cup to win. That's why the tournament will be played. We shall see how things unfolds soon in the tournament to be held in Ivory Coast within the next five weeks. Time always reveals each and every outcome in each event to be held in this same Physical COMPLEX world we all reside in. I hope Nigeria wins the cup next month in Ivory Coast. We shall see.

Nigel doesn’t know African football if he says Nigerians have more skill and flair than Ghanaian players. Nigeria had Okocha and Kanu but they are the exception to the rule, Nigeria tended to rely more on power and speed to beat teams. A subtle way you can tell the difference between Nigerian and Ghanaian players is to look at defensive players. Nigerian defensive players tend to be only defensive like fullbacks Taribo West or Sunday Olise. While Ghanaian defensive players have a higher skill and technically level so can also play as attacking players like Munatri, Essien and Thomas Partey. And Ghana fullbacks are way more attacking than Nigerian fullbacks because they are more. The problem for Ghana is they don’t have a deep pool of players because it is a smallish country and so many top players who are eligible for Ghana play for other national teams. At the last world cup Ghana was the African team with most players playing for other nation teams at 11. There are Ghanaian heritage players who play for England, Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, France, Wales, USA, Canada, Sweden and even Qatar.

[@Ahoto_papa_bi]

I know right 😆… as a Ghanaian the flair style has frustrated me from childhood watching blackstars play. The prioritize flair over winning

[@brightokechukwu4886]

Lol I'm Nigerian and I agree, we practically learned flair football from Ghana in the early 70's when lots of Ghanaians moved to Nigeria

[@kelvinokenyi7353]

Lol Ghana has never had a full back like Taribo West or Celestine Babayaro so calm down. P.s if it's our boys playing for other nations, bro Saka plays for England, name your player of higher grade who could have played for you but plays for another nation. P.s if they do choose to play for other places then it's a matter of choice. We talking about current team you're talking about the 80's and 90's. We will be Victorious with any Victor, Oshimen, Boniface. Top team

[@bonsuosei2697]

​@kelvinokenyi7353 Wrong! Samuel Osei Kuffuor, who played for Bayern Munich for almost 12 years was better than Taribo West and Babayaro in every aspect game and achieved more!

[@kelvinokenyi7353]

@@bonsuosei2697 Sammy was an awesome footballer no doubt. Whenever I think of him I remember the 99 treble when he showed his passion most, but Sammy was a centre back not an attacking full back

To claim that Hughton "doesn't understand" Ghanaian football is a short sighted mistake. As talented as their players are, the key reason they haven't progressed more is lack of tactical discipline. Even if their players hate him for it, the manager is right to at least try to instill discipline in them.
