Issa Hayatou and the Cup of Nations
CAF President says there'll be minor problems at AFCON but Ebola won't be one of them.
The head of African football admits there will be problems when the Africa Cup of Nations kicks off in Equatorial Guinea next year, due to the last-minute change of hosts. Issa Hayatou also tells players not to worry about contracting Ebola in Equatorial Guinea, saying that it鈥檚 up to them if they want to go there or not.
Equatorial Guinea鈥檚 policy of naturalising players is criticised by their own captain, but defended by the well-traveled Belgian coach Tom Saintfiet.
The man who replaced the murdered South Africa captain Senzo Meyiwa in goal, Darren Keet, talks about the pressure he felt and the dedication he wrote on his goalkeeping gloves.
Stephanie Roche, who could become the first woman to win FIFA鈥檚 Goal of the Year award, talks about her excitement at being nominated and how the goal has changed her life.
And the uncle of Radamel Falcao gives us an insight into the childhood of the Manchewster United striker.
