This was one result i was not expecting, however one i totally agree with. Right from the start
of the tournament and even through out the Qualifying period, the Lions of Teranga had established
themselves as one of the very few sides who were strong favourites to lift the AFCON trophy on Feb
12th.
"I think I am not in the best condition to analyse it. At this moment, my feeling is stronger than
my reason."
Those were the words of Jorge Fossati, the coach of newly-crowned Asian Champions Al Sadd, deep in
the bowels of Jeonju World Cup Stadium on Saturday evening. The Uruguayan had just watched a
fantastic final in which his team overcame favourites and host Jeonbuk Motors thanks to a penalty
shootout.
