African Cup of Nations 2008
The African Cup of Nations 2008 is underway in Ghana and the bookies' favorites Ivory Coast underlined their strong claim to win the tournament with a 1-0 Group B win over Nigeria.
Though premiership managers might bemoan the lack of their African stars over the three weeks of the tournament, it is a chance for fans in Africa to see their heroes in the flesh.
In tonight's matches Cameroon are the slight favorites to beat reigning champions Egypt, while Zambia are more heavily fancied to beat Sudan.
