A quick summary of action around the CAF second round on the weekend of FRI 20-MON 23 JUN 2008.
» Zambia 01-00 Swaziland: A late penalty by Christopher KATONGO earned three points for the Chipolopolo. Both teams are now tied atop Group 11, Swaziland leading on goals scored.
» Nigeria 02-00 Equatorial Guinea: The Super Eagles are one of two African nations to win all matches so far, and in Nigeria’s case, that means confirmed advancement from Group 4.
» Burkina Faso 04-01 Seychelles: Their convincing win over the Seychelles means that the Stallions also have a full twelve points. But with Tunisia right behind in Group 9, Burkina Faso are not yet certain of a third round berth.
» Morocco 02-00 Rwanda: Meanwhile, the Wasps’ perfect record in Group 8 came to an end after goals by Youssef SAFRI and Nabil EL ZHAR.
» Cameroon 02-01 Tanzania: Samuel ETO’O scored his second goal in the dying seconds to keep the Indomitable Lions first in Group 1, but a win by the Cape Verde Is means Cameroon’s lead is still a single point.
» Egypt 02-00 Malawi: Emad MOTEAB scored twice to defeat the Malawi side that had bested the Pharaohs a week previously. The Group 12 match between Egypt and Congo DR on SUN 07 SEP 2008 could allow the Flames to get back into the race.
