Equatorial Guinea play their first African cup of nations quarter final after qualfying in 2nd place in group A.
Not many expected Equatorial Guinea to make the quarter finals however good heart and character seen them qualify with a game to spare, beating Libya and Senegal in order to qualify. The African minnows should give the Ivory Coast a good game as it certain the crowd will be behind them all the way. They have also proved to be not a bad side hence the reason they qualfied for the quarters, with the likes of Randy and Juvenal being key players in the Equatorial Guinea side. We cannot of course rule out the Ivory Coast from this tie as they did qualify for the quarters with a 100% record however they haven't really shown the quality expected from their top players who play in European league's.
The hosts will be expected to say their goodbye's in the game after it is felt the supreme talent of the Ivory Coast team will prove to be too strong for a spirted, Equatorial Guinea side.
