I’ll be downloading this match later tonight, but I’m thrilled that Keita had a good game. He’s IMO one of the best wingers out there, just horribly unpredictable.

I believe this is what is known as “complete defensive collapse.” You have to feel for the keeper, Camara, the lone defender against all those white shirts.

Oh, and I’m not looking forward to seeing Anelka-Drogba because I’m an Arsenal fan. :)

So long to a talented Guinea team. The missing captains was just too big of a hurdle to overcome. Look forward to seeing them in WC 2010 qualifying.

I can’t wait to see Drogba and Anelka on the field together. And I’m not even a Chelsea fan.

Okay, there we go. Maybe they just do it on odd-numbered goals?

Drogba is a football god im telling you. And he must be to pull of that hair which he does.

I am absoloutely devastated that Cote d’Ivoire did not just do their little booty-shaking goal dance. Why am I even watching this game if they’re not going to do the goal dance?

Oh, ouch. There’s nothing I hate worse than seeing keepers slam their heads against the post.

As soon as the commentator says, “This game lacks the drama of the earlier game” it explodes with great saves and action at both ends. Very nice.
