I watched most of the Colombia-Nigeria match which ended 1-0 to the home team, with Apam going the full 90 for Nigeria, and Ospina in Colombia’s goal for the second half. Though the first half was sort of even, it was one-way traffic towards the Nigeria goal for the entire second half. Nigeria were severely [...]

Despite his admirable, 21-year-old’s confidence (which is about 15 years more developed than it was in the picture on the left), Rémy in fact did not recover in time to make the squad for tomorrow’s match. Bugger. There rest of the list is entirely as expected:
Gardiens: Letizi, Ospina
Défenseurs: Apam, Cid, Diakité, Hognon, Kanté, Rool
Milieux: Coulibaly, [...]
Midweek, Pre-Derby News

[Quansah jubilating, as Getty would say.]
•Ben Saada played 10 minutes of Tunisia’s 1-3 friendly loss to France yesterday. Friendly or not, it was a big match for him personally, since he’s French-born and won a U-17 title in a France shirt before choosing Tunisia as his senior side. (Based on his grinny, pre-match interview, though, [...]

Things Get Quietly Ugly, Or: Even More Less Baky

Nice flew out to Vichy last night. They’ll spend the next week there, lounging in the hot springs, training and playing their first friendly, scheduled for this Friday. (Trading one resort for another — such are the trials of preseason training.) When the team gathered at the airport to head out, though, one very, very [...]
Catching Up With: Transfers
By: Martha | 4 Comments
Training started on Monday (video evidence here), with 22 players in attendance. Thank GOD.
In addition to the Africans who got an extra week off because of the World Cup qualifiers they played in last month (Apam, Diakité, Faé, Kanté, Traoré), and Patrick Barul, who is off on trial with Norwich, several other familiar faces were [...]
