Olympics and African Football

I had the pleasure of watching Senegal play in the Olympics against Uruguay, one of the power house in Latin America futbol. Senegal won the game by 2 to Zero. They played really well and even better, they won the game with 10-men. This team looks really young and it shows that Senegal has a bright future in football.

The Senegalese players looked really fit, comfortable with and confident on the ball. Kudos to their defense that was well composed and handled Suarez and Cavani, Uruguayan football stars, excellently. The Senegal defense took these two guys out of the game thus deserved to win. Bad sign for Liverpool (owns Suarez)!!

Senegal was even dancing on the ball, courtesy on Kanote who seems to have been watching too much Cristiano Ronaldo and Ronaldinho! Big ups to him on scoring 2 goals that gave Senegal the victory. After today's performance I would say Senegal is a force to reckon with. Their Goalkeeper was phenomenal too.

Watch out Brazil and Spain, because Senegal wants it as bad as you two do!

Keep enjoying the electric Olympics from swimming, basketball, Gym-nasties, FUTBOL and the list goes on.
Hezzy!

What has been your Olympic surprise so far?
