Summary of the show this Wednesday at 4:10 p.m. – 9:10 p.m. UT: CAN 2024 qualifiers: all the known qualifiers! The nets shook in Garoua, even if it took three quarters of an hour for Brentford striker Bryan Mbeumo to break the deadlock for Cameroon. Burundi beaten 3-0, Pool C where Namibia also qualifies. — Lessons learned from this qualification phase. The continent’s major nations will be well present in Ivory Coast. Returns to the final phase: those of Mauritania, South Africa, Zambia, or even the Tanzanian Taifa Stars.
Friendly meetings: Morocco/Burkina Faso, emotion and solidarity in Lens
Marseillais Ounahi scored the winning goal, but the main thing was elsewhere. The Atlas Lions played again for the first time after the earthquake which struck their country 4 days ago. A moment of communion, revenue and player bonuses will be donated to the victims’ solidarity funds. — Senegal/Algeria, the Lions surprised by the Fennecs! Egypt/Tunisia, meteoric start on the 11th from Jamel Kadri, the Pharaohs have not recovered! Ivory Coast/Mali, a derby gone down the drain! Match interrupted by torrential rain. Not really reassuring a few months before the continent’s flagship competition takes place.
Euro 2024 qualifiers, Italy gives itself some fresh air!
1st victory for Spalletti, and 3 points taken at the expense of Ukraine which allow the Azzurri to climb to 2nd place in the group C standings, behind England. The private Tuscan coach of Tonali, Chiesa and Pellegrini, but with Frattesi, Locatelli and Barelli. A winning environment? Matteo Cioffi was in the stands.
Annie Gasnier welcomes Yoro Mangara, Frank Simon and Nabil Djellit. Technique/direction: Laurent Salerno — David Fintzel/Pierre Guérin.
