    3 mins added. It’s just blatant cheating.

    It’s  a joke of a tournament but that’s as dramatic a finale as I’ve seen in years 

    fair play Comoros

    So unlucky, wonder if they could have won with 11 men, even with the left back in goal.

    Two goals, 4 bookings, 9 subs, some blatant play acting injuries and the ref adds just 3 mins. 

    When we are winning 1-0 you know there’s gonna be a minimum of 5!

    It's being reported that six people have lost their lives in a crush on the way into the ground ahead of tonight's game.

    Crazy as that’s a fairly new stadium and infrastructure. Absolutely terrible.

    Eqrly reports sound like a bit of a Wembley during the Euros situation, people trying to get in due to reduced capacity.

    Hope there isn't too many killed/hurt.

    If there was anyone wondering if corruption was still going strong in football, all they need to do is watch the AFCON

    We will no doubt hear Ian Wrights view shortly. I am guessing he will label them as scum, similar to what got spoken in regards to Wembley. Difference being no one died at Wembley, so could expect stronger language perhaps?

    RIP to those that lost their lives and hope those injured make recoveries.
    Without wanting to downplay the tragedy, it is a joke of a tournament.
    The club lawyers must earn their corn checking that adequate insurances for injuries to players are watertight.
    Liverpool wouldn’t allow Salah or Mane to exercise their dogs on some of those pitches.

    Ivory Coast have seriously underperformed.

    A team with Kessie, Bailly, Aurier, Pepe, Gradel, Haller and Sangare and bringing Zaha, Cornet and Boga off the bench should have pissed this tournament really.

    They're the England of Africa

    They never managed to win the Tournament when they had the likes of Drogba in their team either

    Eric Bailly trying a no look penalty about sums the whole thing up.

    They won it in 2015 when they had the Toure's plus Gervinho and Bony up front.

    Anyone still watching? I’m coming to the end of my tether. Egypt defending and waiting for Salah to do something. It’s hard work.

    This is so boring, and that's coming from someone who goes to men's step 4 and 5 matches, watch women's football, youth football, table football !  This semi final is like watching paint dry.

    Imagine saying you don’t want the designated ref in charge prior to a game. Brain dead stuff.

    The Kit man of Egypt will be on the touchline and do the subs for Final or 3rd and 4th place !
