Loving the coverage of African teams at the CWC - some of the most interesting storylines...even if I'm not halfway!

I was definitely surprised to see that it was Miami that picked up more legs as the game went on, not Al Ahly. Less used to Miami humidity, even if the heat is no new thing? What are the relative ages of the teams?

Yeah it was a surprise to me as well. I think there was the emotional burden as well of not scoring in the first half that also really killed the Al Ahly players. And of course Messi doing his thing more and more.
