I shall bet on red cards in this tournament.

I’m sure there are others who have done the same.
At least they have been consistent. The barrier for red cards has been a bit low though.
Really like Cape Verdes kit.
Slippery ball?
I do not since if I do they stop haha.
Cape Verde goalkeeper is out of it, gotta be subbed.
That clash of heads was nasty. It actually looked like Mane was knocked out for a second.
Fkin that looked horrible.
Mane was out before hit the ground.
Keeper concussed!

Bad day for the keeper this.
Another red card. There has been a crazy amount in this tournament.
Keeper won't even realise he's been sent off, he will be back in goal in 5 minutes.
Fkin camera giving it close ups as well.
No concussion sub?

I don't understand what he's been sent off for?
Goal scoring chance.
Good day for Mane.
Gets knocked the feck out.
Comes back an scores.

This is soon to be football, defender to go down on the box on every corner just incase there is a goal on the hole VAR will chalk it off.
Christ, footy matches are soon going to be 3 hour events because of VAR.
Needed that ref for the Palace game
Yeah, there was nowt in that? Just landed and collided a little bit.
Are they even playing football?
Feels like there is an injury, VAR or something else every second.

Think we've had about 4 minutes of football in 69 minutes.
The GK only got sent off because Mané touched the ball first. Horrible collision with both players trying to play the ball, didn't warrant a red card.
But I'm surprised they allowed Mané to continue to play without any concussion protocol, that's very dangerous. As we saw after his goal, he ended up going down and had to be taken off
Most impressive thing about this match was that celebration.
fecking hell.
What a goal that is!
What a goal that is!
Some strike to give Malawi an early lead.
Pick that out. Screamer.
That’s gonna give us a great game. Morocco -the favourites- are now obliged to go all out and leave spaces behind them.
Come on Malawi!
Wow.
The quality of these long range strikes!

Hakim is always good for a goal like that
Some worldies in this match!
Morocco have taken the sting out of the game. Great effort by Malawi though...
Turns out both Semis and the Final will be shown on the relaunched BBC3.
I realised yesterday that watching a game with Arabic commentary is a great way to pay attention to the game. Every half chance or shot at goal sounds like an absolute sitter. I was trying to study while having Morocco v Malawi in the background. I basically ended up watching the entire game.
Ivory Coast vs Egypt.
Wilfred Zaha on the Bench.
Our Bailly already cautioned with yellow.
Good contest so far.

When I lived in UAE, I only listened to Arabic commentators and I enjoyed it back then, but now I find the "over the top tone" you are alluding to a bit too much for my liking, I prefer the British commentators because they mostly keep it simple and more quieter or less OTT tone.
That free kick 
sure a 4 year old could have kicked it harder.

How come Bailly is in a headguard? Probably a silly question. I mean, why wouldn't he be?
