KNOW YOUR ENEMY: Guinea’s top goal scorer

Pascal Feindouno is Guinea’s top Goal Scorer. It seems he knows Malawi very well. In 2005 he scored the first goal when Guinea beat Malawi 3-1 . On June 21, 2009 he scored both goals when Guinea beat Malawi 2-1 in Guinea. Malawi and Guinea meet again this Saturday at Kamuzu Stadium.

When the Flames fail to score the blame is always on the strikers. Pascal Feindouno is a midfielder but he happens to be Guinea’s top Goal Scorer. Is he Steven Gerrard? No way? Anyway, did you know that on 12 October 2007, it was reported that English Premiership giant Liverpool F.C.’s manager Rafael Benítez would make a bid to purchase him at the next January (2008) transfer window? If you didn’t know now you know.

This Saturday, the Flames not only need to win but they need to win big. If they will win by a margin of less than 3 goals they will still be on last position in Group E. So I am expecting the Flames to take risks this Saturday. Watch out! If you go all out to attack Guinea will counter attack via a highway. In Burkina Faso they managed to score 2 goals. Against Ivory Coast they managed to score a goal. Against Malawi they scored two goals. A fortnight ago they scored 3 goals in Egypt. As you can see they also like to attack.

The Flames will need to avoid conceding an early goal. If Guinea will score make sure Pascal Feindouno is not the scorer. Not that it makes any difference but I don’t want to be the one to say: “I told you so.”

Do you know the enemy?
Do you know your enemy?
Well, gotta know the enemy

“Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.”

You can throw the caution to the wind.
