In a scene reminiscent of U.S. women's gymnastics coach Bela Karolyi carrying Kerri Strug to
collect her Olympic goal medal in 1996, Herve Renard, Zambia's 43-year-old French manager, carried
injured defender Joseph Musonda to celebrate Zambia's historic first-ever African Cup of Nations
title after beating the Ivory Coast in a penalty shootout.
Underdogs like Hickory High, Zambia pulled off the unthinkable on Sunday, overrunning the Ivory
Coast for an unbelievable penalty shootout victory and a right to hold the African Cup of Nations
to the sky.
Zambia was charged and Ivory Coast's Prem duo of Gervinho and Didier Drogba couldn't find the
netting against the stout side.
Zambia win the African Cup of Nations, honor those lost 19 years ago in plane crash
After taking off from Libreville in Gabon 19 years ago, a military plane carrying most of the
squad crashed into the Atlantic Ocean. All 30 people on board, including 18 players, were killed.
Before the crash, it was a golden era for Zambia's football team.

Zambia's sensational African Cup of Nations has just ended with emotional glory when they defeated
the huge favourites Côte d'Ivoire in an intense final in Libreville! Like everyone in the stadium
(except the Ivorians), I also got carried away by the glorious spirit, fight, and the memory of the
1994 team that died in Gabon.

In an amazing game tonight, Zambia won the African Cup of Nations after the game with
the Ivory Coast ended 0-0 after extra time, and Zambia won the penalty shoot-out 8-7 with
the Ivory Coast missing their last two penalties through Kolo Toure and Gervinho. Didier Drogba
missed a penalty for the Ivory Coast after 70 minutes when he blazed over the bar.

Today was the 2nd preseason game of the year for Vancouver and guess what: "20'- old friend Atiba
Harris gets first caution for hard tackle on sideline against Bengelloun".
While the marquee game of the weekend, Sunday's African Cup of Nations final between Zambia and
Ivory Coast, is not being widely televised throughout the United States, there is still plenty of
top-rate action to catch.
This weekend has the potential to be a landmark one for a number of Americans looking to make
their mark on the European game.
"Check that's not Jackie Chan, will you?" after one particularly high challenge in the African
Cup of Nations (ACN) semi-finals. Ah yes. Gary O'Reilly was back on Eurosport. And welcome back
too. However, the most telling comment of any international football tournament is "no goals
against." And that's a quote from Cote D'Ivoire.

The inevitable African Cup of Nations championship matchup between the continent's two
powerhouses has made way for a title game involving an underdog side that is a win away from

STARTERSFabio Capello has quit as coach of England, over the FA's decision to not allow the idiot John
Terry to be captain.
-I guess Capello felt undermined by the decision and could not be in charge of his team at Euro
2012.
-Stuart Pearce has been named interim head coach.
Odds before the tournament of Zambia making it to the AFCON final probably weren't particularly
high they've never won and have only been to two finals, the last nearly twenty years ago. ELO has
them 56th in the world, but for all intents and purposes, they'll be at least second on the
continent come Sunday after Emmanuel Mayuka's goal against Ghana today, cementing their late
upset.
It is hard not to have sympathy for Zambia's football team: in the 80s and early 90s they were an
important part of the African football awakening that was to take the world by storm right until
1993, when the entire team was killed in an air disaster when heading to a World Qualifier. While
in 1994 they made it to the African Nations Cup final, they still never fully recovered from the

There is plenty of high-profile soccer going on around the world this Wednesday, but perhaps no
games carry as much significance as the two African Cup of Nations semifinals. Ivory Coast and
Ghana took care of business in the African Cup of Nations quarterfinals with matching 3-0
victories, and all that stands in the way of a star-studded tournament final is one more win for
each team.

Another week, another huge day for the LA Galaxy as they sign a new loan deal with Sao Paolo for

Bob Bradley has always been a tremendous example for his players and leader as a soccer coach. Now,
in the wake of a terrible tragedy, he is asked to do the same for a nation.
Bradley insisted Monday that he is "totally committed" to coaching Egypt's national soccer team
despite the turmoil in the country following the riot at a game last week that left more than 70

They huffed and puffed. And Cote D'Ivoire and Ghana, Africa's two best footballing nations

After a disappointing start to this calender year, Arsenal were finally able to secure their
first Premier League win of 2012, picking up 3 vital points against Blackburn Rovers in a 7-1

Once again, Robin van Persie showed just how important he is to this Arsenal side scoring three
and making two others during a numbingly-cold afternoon in North London.
