UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE: DROGBA, YAYA TOURÉ FOR THE SHOW, KOUYATÉ TO AVOID SINKING
African football stars are set to showcase their skills once again in the European Champions League as the fourth day of the group stages kicks off this Tuesday. Here’s a glimpse of the matchups:
- Copenhagen-Galatasaray: All eyes will be on Didier Drogba as he aims to continue his impressive form in the competition. Emmanuel Eboue, Chedjou, Nounkeu, and Nordin Amrabat are also expected to feature for Galatasaray.
- PSG-Anderlecht: Cheikhou Kouyaté and his teammates aim to avoid another setback, facing a tough challenge against Ibrahimovic and PSG. Chancel Mbemba will be a key asset, but Ghanaian Frank Acheampong might not be relied upon heavily for scoring.
- Manchester City-CSKA Moscow: Yaya Toure and Seydou Doumbia reunite, providing an opportunity to see if they’ve moved past the controversy arising from racist chants in Moscow two weeks ago.
- Juventus-Real Madrid: Ghanaian Kwadwo Asamoah is eager to make a difference as Juventus takes on Real Madrid. His talent will be crucial in the battle against the Merengue.
- Olympiakos-Benfica: The African contingent in Olympiakos, including Ndinga, Yatabaré, and Medjani, is ready to face Benfica. Gaétan Bong might be absent, but the Greeks are prepared for a challenging encounter against the Portuguese.
Football enthusiasts can anticipate an exciting round of matches with these talented African players in action.
