African Nations Cup 21/1/2008 - Mali vs Benin

Most people are not familiar with the two teams involved in this live commentary and play by play African Nations Cup soccer match between Mali and Benin. However, due to their recent upset wins over other powerhouses, Mali has been identified as a possible table topper in their group and look to give other African nations a run for their money. In this game, they are the clear favourites over Benin whom most soccer fans might not even know where to find them on a world map. But Benin have done well in recent times and while not many expect much from them, they will do a fine job of crediting themselves on the world soccer stage. In fact, there has been some fans who believe that Mali will not have it easy in this live commentary and radio broadcast game, and they might just only squeak through, or in fact be beaten by Benin. The booksmakers certainly feel the same way but the majority still think Mali should overcome Benin eventually and walk away with the points.

Most fans are not aware as well of any players of note from the Mali and Benin national soccer teams and none of them play in any prominent team in the European football leagues. However, that does not mean you will not see quality football talent and action in this live commentary and TV telecast African Nations Cup game between Mali and Benin. In fact, many European soccer scouts will be present at this game to look for the next Nwanko Kanu or Didier Drogba or Michael Essien as African players are now highly coveted for their powerful athleticism and exotic soccer skills. So everyone is sitting back and waiting eagerly for the soccer action that awaits us in this African Nations Cup game and you can expect to see many goals and goalmouth action tonight.
