Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane the stars but Africa Cup of Nations final about more than Liverpool duo
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp almost caused something of an international incident back in November when he referred to the Africa Cup of Nations as a ‘little tournament’. The comment was understandably not well received on the continent and following some heated backlash, the German was forced to explain that he was being ‘ironic’ and merely, if clumsily, expressing his dismay at losing some of his best players for Africa’s premier competition.
This is África
Cuando hace poco más de un mes un periodista le preguntó a Jürgen Klopp, entrenador del Liverpool, cómo iba a afrontar las siguientes semanas sin sus dos grandes estrellas, Mané y Salah, por la presencia de estos en la Copa de África, el alemán fue tajante: “He planificado los partidos pensando en que van a llegar muy lejos y que no voy a poder contar con ninguno de los dos durante un tiempo largo”. Se desconoce si Klopp tiene algún curso de adivinación y futurología, pero como analista y previsor no tiene rival. Tanto Mané como Salah, las dos grandes estrellas del continente africano, jugarán hoy (20:00) la final de la CAN 2021 en Camerún después de haber liderado a las selecciones de Senegal y Egipto, respectivamente.
