DRAMA NSUES
The Africa Cup of Nations: what a wonder. This is what happens when you combine some of the world’s best players, some of the world’s most forgettable managers and head coaches and some of the greatest fans in the world. It is a sort of wonderful chaos, unmissable viewing that veers from the sublime to the ridiculous. Where else can a former Birmingham City and Middlesbrough right-back – now 34 and playing in the third tier of Spanish football – become the leading scorer? In a preposterous turn of events, Emilio Nsue now has five goals from three games after his double helped Equatorial Guinea batter hosts Ivory Coast 4-0 on Monday, a sensational performance that followed his hat-trick against Guinea-Bissau in the previous game.
