after watching most of games,here is my opinion

Ghana is banker home win for many reasons, including the bad shape of cameroon, and the fact that is unthinkaple for hosts not to participate in the final : whole world understands this very well, i mean even fifa officials are compromised with the idea that hosts MUST play in final,

in addition, cameroon looks like a circus team, nothing nothing for passioned ghana players to afraid

for the other game, my conclusion is that egypt is better team than ivory cost; more disciplined, organised, with game plan

ivory coast is the drogba and the others, perhaps the best african team, but african, egypt plays up to european level,

so i rate egypt as the better here, i also like very much Zidan,
i dont know why he didnt play against angola, i hope to play tomorrow, he is at least equal to drogba

ny tip is : Egypt not to lose the game : 2X, extra time is very probable here imo

Onto more entertaining things, and that has to be one of the strangest sendings off I've ever seen. A Cameroon player down on the ground receiving treatment, the little stretcher cart thing was out there, when Bikey suddenly loses it completely, comes running in and shoves one of the physios and sends him flying Straight red card, Bikey misses the final, and I suspect that may well be treated nearly as seriously as attacking a referee, reckon he may well be getting more than just a three match ban

Fantastic sending off that. Nevermind the ref losing his balance when Di Canio shoved him. The physio went flying.

Why did he do it ?

the fluorescent jacket must have the same effect as a red rag to a bull

Ivory Coast cant be missed @ 1.74 BF

cut above the rest of the teams, in terms of class and firepower upfront,

Egypt are an average side at best.

No idea why he did it Kegman, I'd like to know too. For him to do something like that in stoppage time with his team 1-0 up and heading for the final, surely something must've happened.

For those who didn't see it last night:
