            I think African football is becoming something else as compared to one of the highly prestigious competitions held while i was a kid. Maybe the organizers are now too old in office so much so that, instead of presenting a great deal of experience as per longevity of service, they are rather presenting a derailed functional ability to organized a 21st century soccer competition. I really wonder if this is an international competition again or one of the inter quarter soccer games they organized during summers in the city of Bamenda Cameroon, where I am coming from. The whole competition is just a sham and full of controversies.
some of which popped up during the quarter-final game last weekend between the host country Equatorial Guinea and Tunisia. The host country made it through to the semi-final after beating Tunisia by 2 goals to 1 with a controversial penalty. Corruption allegations also came up, pinpointing the organizers for match fixing. Banning a match official for 6 months isn't good enough compared to the magnitude of what he did. He deserve the end of his career as a match official.
Yesterday was another messed still involving the host country acting cowardly in contrary with the laws of the game. The home supports interrupted the semi-final game by riots couple of times. This is too bad for a competition of such magnitude.
I suggest a lot need to be done starting from the organizers right down to the level of the competition in order to gain back the prestigious nature of this competition.
