The winners retain it until the next tournament and are awarded a replica that is gold-plated, rather than solid gold. It’s base contains two layers of semi-precious malachite, while the bottom side of the trophy bears the engraved year and name of each FIFA World Cup winner since 1974

Cameroon, Tunisia, Algeria and Ivory Coast are looking good to join Ghana and hosts South Africa and complete the African line-up at the 2010 World Cup.

Here are the group standings.

GROUP A
October 10, 2009: Gabon Vs. Morocco; Cameroon Vs Togo
If Morocco will beat Gabon and if Cameroon will beat Togo then Cameroon will qualify

GROUP B
October 11, 2009: Tunisia Vs. Kenya; Nigeria Vs. Mozambique
If Tunisia will beat Kenya and if Mozambique will beat Nigeria then Tunisia will qualify

GROUP C
October 10, 2009: Zambia Vs. Egypt
October 11, 2009: Algeria Vs. Rwanda
If Algeria will beat Rwanda (most likely, even a draw will suffice) and if Zambia will beat Egypt (or draw) then Algeria will qualify

GROUP D
Ghana (12 points) already qualified because the second placed team in the Group has 5 points (Mali)

GROUP E
October 10, 2009: Malawi Vs. Ivory Coast
October 11, 2009: Guinea Vs. Burkina Faso
Ivory Coast have 12 points and the second placed team in the Group has 6 points (Burkina Faso)
Ivory Coast just need a single point against Malawi or just need Guinea to beat Burkina Faso (even a draw will suffice).

Have your say.
