African U20 Cup of Nations

:GAM does their thing by beating :BEN on the final day of Group C action. :GAM goes 3-0-0 and will draw :SSD in the quarterfinals. :TUN qualified for the knockout round as C2 by eliminating :ZAM 2-1. The tournament is not over yet for :BEN though as, despite scoring just one goal through three matches, they were the better ranked third-placed team when compared to host :EGY. :BEN will play :SEN to begin Quarterfinal competition on Thursday.

Fun little thing in the Dutch Cup this week: FC Utrecht, a long-time mainstay in the top-level competition, was kicked out in the quarterfinales by the amateurs of SV Spakenburg, 1-4 (yes, Utrecht played at home) :d 

 

Probably the largest upset in Dutch football in a long time.

 

Fun side fact: Spakenburg is a rather religious village, and they don't play on Sunday (they're in the amateur Saturday competition for that reason, like my own town's club). However....the Cup final is on a Sunday, so if they make it, they'll have to break their own rules (the club rules specifically state they don't play on Sunday). The coach was clear though: "If it's up to me, obviously we're going" :p

Surprises never cease :d If they go all the way through to the final will they change the community rules for this?

 

By the way, what on earth happened in PEC Zwolle - Den Bosch?
