Egypt finally successfully revenge from Senegal that although it comes from own goal by Saliou Ciss in early minutes but it's enough for Egypt to one step a head went to world cup and the match were very tight because both of teams had been playing attacking each other but the goalkeepers for Egypt and Senegal has playing well and no more goals until final whistle

I'm not surprised that the game would be like this .I know it will be so tough between the two teams that they would struggle to score the highest goal. Egypt tried their best to win the match not allowing Senegal to defeat them the second time, the game was tough and very Interesting, many were waiting to see the end of the game who the winner will be. Senegal performance was not bad but they were not lucky this time in the game.

I saw the dedication from the Egyptian players. The ensured the don't get defeated the second time . But the goal difference is only one goal away. The second leg determines who get qualified for the next round of the world cup qualifiers. Senegal also gave in their best. I think leg 2 of 2 will be tougher than this

One goal is not very much indeed. Actually all the games were in a very good tradition of the Africa Cup where most games were decided by a single goal. I doubt this will change much in the 2nd leg games. So while one goal "normally" is not that much, it is quite meaningful under the African circumstances.
Tunisia and Algeria have more of advantage as they won their away-game. Egypt and Nigeria both do have another very tough game ahead.

The super eagles of Nigeria was denied a penalty, they should have won the game had it been they were awarded the penalty, meanwhile the friendly between France and ivory Coast is really interesting to watch, I was amazed by how ivory Coast dominated the match before losing it in the stoppage time. It ought to have ended up in a draw though

That wasn't a penalty, Iheanacho actually fooled the Ghanian player. Watch the reply closely and you can see Iheanacho's leg not just hitting but pulling that of the Ghanian player before he fell on the ball with his hands. I would had been furious if after the review the penalty stood. It would had meant the integrity of our official will keep be questioned. The match was quite interesting the watch and you could see the Ghanian been frustrated after they couldn't get an advantage on their home soil.

The returning leg will be played in Nigeria and the super eagles will be well prepared. I believe the game plan was always to draw at Ghana and not going there trying to win because that would had been costly for us and expose the defense. True be told, the Ghanian team were the better side just that they lacked that quality needed for a final finish.

Ive predicted the match between Ghana and Nigeria to be a draw. Nigeria did not really coordinate their play. Nigeria did not play to their potential. To get a draw with our below expectations performance is a good result. Frankly speaking Ghana were the better side. I'm not actually pleased with the way Nigeria played though maybe it's their game plan. The midfield was not it at all, the coaches has a lot to do tactically if we must get the world cup ticket. Nigeria is very fortunate to have come out with a draw. Ghana were better and played more physical football than Nigeria. There's All to play for in the second leg.

Nigerian did not play anything good because the ball possession indicates that Nigeria did play well, Ghana oppressed Nigeria from the beginning to end of the match and their was no breathing space for Nigeria team, let us wait and watch the returning match, definitely if Nigeria use this method Ghana will win them.

What matters at the end of a match is who won and not who had the ball possession and oppressed. The match ended goalless and it is a share of the spoil. My fear is over because am sure the Super Eagles will defeat the Black Stars in the return leg in Nigeria. Nigeria shows more confidence playing at home than playing away. I give the next match completely to Nigeria.

African nations games are some of the most difficult to predict. Reason being that, almost all the teams are on a level platform and it's rear to see matches with an over 3.5 scoreline nor would you see a particular team with lots of goal difference.

Very true, it's been a really long time i saw a team win another by a huge goal difference in african football. As much as Egypt will do well in the world cup, i think senegal who were just winners of the AFCON can do well relatively. The game between Egypt and Senegal is far from over, Egypt won but did not score a goal themselves, not very convincing, and this proves that they return leg will still be a battle for qualification.

At the end of the first legs for the World Cup qualifies ;
Ghana and Nigeria ended with no goals in the game.

Not as expected really by many including myself, Maybe we just overhyped the super eagles, because there was nothing super about their performance. We have many quality players in our team, and the challenge now is with our coach Austin Eguavon to be able to manage and get these players to play together as a team. Nigeria needs to get it right in the second leg, we will have the hole advantage and will have to take our chances, it will be a huge disappointment if Nigeria doesn't qualify.

Ghana and Nigeria ended with no goals in the game.
Egyptians had a magical goal in the first half (own goal ) against current African Champions Senegal.
Algeria won over Cameroon Slimani, and a single goal in the game between Mali and Tunisia.

All games ended and we saw them playing under two goals.

One interesting game for me in today's match day live was Egypt 1-0 Senegal. Both teams gave it there best and Egypt managed to win by a goal that came of Saliou Ciss in an own goal.
It's always something spectacular to watch 2 team mates in Muhammed Salah and Sadio Mane battle themselves in representation of there nations. Nice game anyway, Senegal played quite well but, Egypt had to win.

Africa games are not difficult to predict all the games is the same thing but the problem is that some of the players lack's attention for playing for their nation that makes their games unbalanced, game is game, use dint have to predict it rightfully always

I watched only the Mali-Tunisia match. Tunisia were very lucky with Sissako scoring an own goal at the 36th minute then getting a red card in the 40th minute (within less than 5 minutes!). I thought the red card is going to complicate things for Mali but I was wrong. They dominated the second half and created many scoring opportunities but they lacked the finishing touch.

It's now that Nigerian is playing is well because they have undergoes advice, even now they have missed chances of scoring goal, Ghana team can not miss-utilize the two opportunities Nigeria missed, the way I'm looking at the match it will end up 0:0

The match is almost finish, it will end draw.

Both countries teams played good. Ghana had 3 goals on target while Nigeria had 2. Ghana dominate the first half but likely Nigeria dominate more little in second half. They both played good. Second March is on 29th of this month, I am expecting Nigeria to win by that time.

Nigerian did not play anything good because the ball possession indicates that Nigeria did play well, Ghana oppressed Nigeria from the beginning to end of the match and their was no breathing space for Nigeria team, let us wait and watch the returning match, definitely if Nigeria use this method Ghana will win them.

for me they are easy to predict in the matter of how many goals they will be scored, they don't score a lot and a lot of teams just give up trying after leading by the first goal, but I expect more goals in the 2nd leg because there are no other matches or chance for the teams that are going to be losing and they have to attack and try everything which could result in them scoring or the opposite team taking advantage of counterattacks.

Interesting results from the 1st round play of the African world cup qualifiers. We had a different surprise result.
Cameronians losing to Algeria to 1:0 defeat is what keep surprising me after giving them a whole lot of 11mins extra time. I still don't get it up till now why the 11mins added time.
Nigeria's players should be thankful to their goalkeeper, if not for me, Ghana would have dealt with them. Nigerian players were lost in the match. No coordination, no accurate pass and no midfielder in the match. The second leg of Nigeria, Ghana shouldn't be like this, if not Nigeria will lose

Maybe they didnt receive the penalty ,but Ghana was surprisingly much better then Nigeria in this match and i think it will be a lot more intresting in the rematch. Nigeria has a good result so far for the rematch. In front of their fans they will be playing against Ghana and if they attack them hard they will have a good chance

What better chance do you think Nigeria need to make a better position in the African cup of nations games, from the look of things ghana may represent the future if African football on the normal state of thing.

Today games were really tough and it seems that some teams managed to win away or get a score that will give them a high chance to get to the world cup like tunisia, algeria and morroco even nigeria got a good result by getting that 0 0 draw.

Today is the african section of world cup eliminations, morocco is already behind with one goal against dr of congo waiting for the second half, i had a bet with good odds that morocco can draw draw the score and why not winning the game.

DR Congo vs Morocco is over now and it ended with a draw (1-1). Morocco was able to equalize in minute 76. Then 5 minutes before the end Congo got a red card. Morocco seemed to have shown a slightly better game, but from the statistics it looks like that overall the draw was justified.
Morocco is the favorite now in the 2nd game. Playing at home they should be able to win and qualify for the World Cup.

From the first half we saw the attentions of morroco she went to DR congo not to defend only, she received an early goal but didn't stop attacking, the beginning of second half they had a penalty which they missed and even though they didn't give up till they scored and made the score even again.
Well for algeria as i expected the match wasn't easy but we could score a goal and managed to keep it that way till the end of the match, we saw weird things happend in the stadium, unfortunately Samuel eto wasn't honest about the good preparation for this match as we saw the lights in the second half which stopped the game for over 5 minutes.
And for egypt vs senegal i predicted in my last post that they may revenge after losing the african cup against them.
