January 11, 20223 yr Algeria and Riyad Mahrez are looking to repeat. Right now, Nigeria is up 1-0 on Mo Salah and the Pharaohs. Leicester's Iheanacho with a goal for the Super Eagles. The games are being shown on BeIn Sports. So I went to BeIn Sports Connect, and you can log on with a YouTube TV account. Apparently BeIn Sports is part of the sports package, which I do not subscribe to. But I was still able to log on, so I'm watching the game. Also, BeIn Sports is available in Dallas with an antenna. It's channel 55-6. Update: BeIn Sports Xtra is available for free on several streaming services, including YouTube TV. Sweet. https://www.beinsportsxtra.com/us/index.html#providers Edited January 11, 20223 yr by Jive Turkey
January 11, 20223 yr Author all of the group stage matches are at 7 am, 10 am, or 1 pm, so that works well for some early soccer viewing.

When I go to YouTubeTV, it's telling me it requires Sports Plus which, I dunno, is Billiards TV worth $10.99/month?
January 12, 20223 yr Author Huh. I was able to get in this way through my YouTubeTV account (and I don't pay for the Sports Package): https://connect.beinsports.com/us/ I'll see if it works again today.
January 12, 20223 yr I don't have a YouTube TV subscription but I can watch it on my computer through my Spectrum Internet login. I guess I'll tune in when Senegal or Egypt next play.
January 12, 20223 yr smh only in Africa. that said, allez L'Elephantes. been a big Côte d'Ivoire fan since the days of Drogba, Kalou, Gervinho, Yaya, Kolo, etc. can't believe they never win the AFCON with that team.

Um, Cote d'Ivoire won AFCON in 2015. I watched it in an Ivorian restaurant in Harlem and it went to the 22nd PK. Drogba was not on the team but the rest of those dudes were.

Drogba was not on the team but the rest of those dudes were. well Drogba is really the main guy i was referencing as having never won the AFCON. i still haven't seen a more loaded African team that the CIV teams from the early 2010's. CIV got boned getting placed in back to back Groups of Death in consecutive WC's. if they don't get paired with Brazil and Portugal in 2010 i think they realistically could have gone to the semis.

January 20, 20223 yr So who had Ghana getting KOed in the group stage? They finishing last in their group and their chance to get a 3rd place wild card was ended when they werre beaten by Cormoros 3-2 yesterday.
January 21, 20223 yr 2 hours ago, CooterBrown said: I’d never heard of Comoros until they beat Ghana. Same.
January 21, 20223 yr If Toto had its way, everyone would've heard of the island nation back in 1982, but "I bless the rains down in Comoros" just wasn't very catchy. Yet another reminder that we should all take some time to do the things we never had.
January 24, 20223 yr Comoros is forced to play their left back at GK today after all three of their recognized goalies are out. Two are out injured and one apparently didn't pass Covid protocols, despite testing negative. https://theathletic.com/news/comoros-keeper-ali-ahamada-out-of-cameroon-match-despite-negative-covid-19-test/SZjLKF5gfIAQ/
January 24, 20223 yr And one of their dudes just got sent off in the 7th min due to a terrible challenge
January 24, 20223 yr Author good lord. and against the host nation to boot. i've got it on. Comoros has kept it at 0-0 into the 29th minute.
January 25, 20223 yr Author couple of ridiculous goals in Morocco's 2-1 win over Malawi. Hakimi with the match winner for Morocco.

January 26, 20223 yr Sadio Mané was taken to the hospital for a suspected concussion. He'd continued to play despite a nasty collision, and went on to score a goal before getting subbed off. Senegal has been pretty abysmal and they desperately wanted to avoid an embarrassing loss to Cape Verde, so of course you risk his health in order to keep your best player on the field...
January 30, 20223 yr Author Egypt v. Morocco is going to extra time at 1-1. Salah tied it up for Egypt.
February 7, 20223 yr 12 hours ago, yoladu said: sounds like the Final was bleh. Senegal 0(4) - 0 (2) Egypt It was actually a lot more entertaining than the semis, though I guess that's not saying much. Mané with an early missed PK, a bunch of late game chances with some amazing saves, and then penalty drama. Really nice to see Senegal win it for the first time. Such a talented team.
