2023 AFCON, Ivory Coast

[Jackson Harrison]

Glad to see both semi final games are on the same day. This should also happen at the World Cup so neither finalist can complan at having one day less rest.

No. They should both be prime time for TV!

I couldn't watch first half of this one for example!

starting at 6 pm and 9 pm. Those are pretty good times.

Moving between timezones between one match and the other?

No. I mistyped.

Nigeria in the final.
I bet now they are happy they "didn't have money" to sack him back in November.

From a TV viewer's perspective yes I get it but from the team's perspective makes more sense to be on the same day.

The TV viewership perspective argument is weak, so called “prime time” games can be an issue depending on time zones, age, family, work.

But the second semi staying in same city cancels it out?

CIV made it to the finals with -3 GD and 33.3% success rate in group stage. Has a team with the same or worse record ever made it to a finals of a tournament with 16 or more teams?

So CIV v NGA again in Alessandre Outourra Stadium!
