Wait why did Zambia not win a tiebreaker if they also had 6 points and had a bigger goal differential than Nigeria and Malawi?
This isn’t going to make sense because the rules didn’t make sense to anyone including players announcers and coaches BUT they basically removed the Egypt games from consideration and went only for H2H points and H2H GD for the games played between Malawi/Nigeria/Zambia. Malawi and Nigeria came out on top.
Essentially this is the table they were looking at to determine the winners between the three. Came down to goals scored, Malawi putting those 3 up against Nigeria made the difference.
And nobody really knew this was the table they were looking at. The commentary team was telling Banda they were through on live tv while Banda was going ????.
That doesn't make sense in the sense that I don't understand why that's how they did it but I do now understand why Zambia didn't make it even if it doesn't make sense so thank you for explaining 😂😭
It’s a system that never needs to be used again
