Fans attend some Africa Cup of Nations matches for free – AFP

The Confederation of African Football (CAF) is allowing fans to attend some Africa Cup of Nations matches for free until around 20 minutes after kick-off. This was reported by Agence France-Presse (Afp) citing a CAF source.

The agency cited as an example the match between the national teams of Cameroon and Gabon in the first round of Group F. As the agency notes, immediately before the start of the match, the stands were almost empty, but in the first half they filled up. The match ended with the score 1:0 in favor of the Cameroonians. This has happened in many other games as well.

24 teams are participating in the Africa Cup of Nations, divided into 6 groups, and the competition takes place in Morocco. The teams occupying the first two positions in the groups and the four best teams in the third positions will enter the playoffs. The round of 16 will take place from 3 to 6 January, the quarter-finals on 9 and 10 January and the semi-finals on 14 January. The third place match will take place on January 17 in Casablanca, the final on January 18 in Rabat.

Secrets of the Real Madrid dressing room: Kroos told how he got along with Vinicius

Former Real Madrid midfielder Toni Kroos He talked about his interaction with Brazilian striker Vinicius Junior and other representatives of Brazil within the scope of the “royal club”.

“The Brazilians aroused my sympathy even as a child. While playing for Real Madrid, I developed excellent relationships with Vinicius, Casemiro and Militao.

It is very easy to find a common language with these guys: they know how to enjoy life, and their mentality is significantly different from that of the Germans.

Casemiro and Vinicius and I understood each other perfectly on the field and developed a unique football bond with Vini.

We communicated warmly in daily life. I believe that if there is no contact between players off the field, it is extremely difficult to achieve harmony in the game.

I used Vini’s high-speed bursts effectively and he masterfully directed my passes,” AS Kroos reports.

Let’s remember that Kroos defended the jersey of Real Madrid from 2014 to 2024. During this decade the German midfielder won the Champions League five times.
