If you are a fan of African football put your bets on for the World Cup in Germany now. As in today or at the very latest tomorrow. This is why: no one, least of all football pundits and “experts”, know what to expect from the African teams at the World Cup this time round.

I’m rubbish when it comes to African footbal (I know I know!) but if I had any money to bet I’d put it on Cote d’Ivoire. And maybe Ghana cos its almost an adopted country to me.
