Scores are subject to change, based on the latest coup d’etat and, or civil war. Does anybody know, if Somalia is really playing at home??? |
On the FIFA site it's the only match that doesn't have a venue listed, even though it's supposed to be played tomorrow. I also read somewhere else on the FIFA site that Central Africa has withdrawn. That means that Burkina Faso is already qualified for the group stage and it gives us one less match to predict.
P.S. this is also the 24 hour warning, although I haven't seen kick-off times for these matches anywhere yet, so it is possible that you have a few hours more or less to post your predictions.
Edit: after some searching I found this site, which has the following fixtures for the Somalia-Ghana matches:
quote: 14/11/2003 Ghana - Somalia
16/11/2003 Ghana - Somalia (date to be confirmed) |
So it looks like both matches will be played in Ghana in November.

Yea, this is what I use:
1a) the more obscure sounding country loses;
1b) if both countries sound equally obscure, they draw.
