I think that Nigeria beating Burkina Faso is an important
thing that people should read because soccer is a worldwide sport enjoyed
everywhere, but not the majority in America and the African Cup of Nations is a
great tournament.
It showcasing the
best of African football, and this year was no exception. This tournament
decides which African nations are able to go to the world cup in Brazil in
2014, which is just over a year away.
The winner will be
able to play against teams like Brazil, Spain, Germany, and Uruguay over the
summer of 2013 in the Confederations Cup, which is a great prelude to what will
happen during the World Cup.
Burkina Faso was my personal favorite to win the cup, even
though they had never even been to a final. I still believe that they should
have won, because I really liked their team.
They had beaten Mali, and Mali was my second favorite team
to win. I was really hoping that they would face each other in the final, but
the bracket had made that impossible.
In third place was Mali, after beating Ghana, who won
fourth. These teams will be able to play in the world cup next year, if I’m not
mistaken.
