@ demonrail -- thanks for that, will check out. re: burkina faso is a french former colony you might have learned as "haute volta" (high volta? upper volta?). right above ivory coast (another ex-french colony).

@ suchfriends - any good matches you'd recommend from here? (it's available replays) (please ignore the mismatched dates & times i don't have time to edit)

I haven't been able to watch because of the time differences and I don't really like replays. I'm going to try to watch the final Ethiopia match tomorrow during my prep period but I might not be able to stream it from my work log-in. From what I've read and heard, the highlight matches worth watching was South Africa v Angola which was a SA shootout in the first half followed by them shutting out Angola in the second. The Ethiopia-Zambia was good even with the low score because it was an excellent defensive game. Most of these games have been a bit hectic, not as precise as African soccer usually is, more ruff and tumble like an NFL game really. Hopefully in the next round folks get their bearings. Its kind of weird because usually I think all the best games are in the Group Stage where teams really both show off and also compete because of the variety of teams and players
