    Egypt were all over Zimbabwe yesterday but it took mo Salah until injury time to win it for them 2 - 1 

    4 games on today, with Congo 1 up against Benin at the moment.

    Why are the attendances so abysmal? Too expensive for fans to travel for the tournament?

    So expensive to travel and stay.

    For example if you're coming from Mali it will cost over $750 on travel. Then probably a further 2 grand on accommodation for the tournament. That's about a years average wage in Mali.

    Winning when he came on but losing by the time the game finished, must be his  fault

    Cheers, that really puts it into context. It’s a shame, fans add so much to matches and it’s hard to get into this tournament when it feels so flat.

    Yeah I was going to make the effort to watch a good few games, and started watching South Africa vs Angola yesterday, and the atmosphere felt so flat, so couldnt get into the match... Its a real lesson and reminder as to how important the fans are, not that any organisers would realise that.

    The AFCON expert on Talksport thought Morocco will win it but his dark horses were South Africa.
