African Football
African Football focuses on the exploits of African players and African countries.
We try as much as possible to cover all the major African Football Leagues and major African Continental Competitions like the CAF Champions League and CAF Confederation Cup.
The CAF Super Cup and other major African Leagues like the South African Premier Division, Egyptian Premier League, Sudan Premier League etc.
We also as much as possible focus on Nigerian players in the other African leagues and the performances of Nigerian clubs at the CAF competitions.
Even though Nigerian clubs have performed badly recently on the continental stages, African football is still worth covering.
And hopefully, things will change for good for the Nigerian clubs so the glory days can be returned.
