Kluivert, Rossi and the Asian Cup Final
Cameroon assistant Patrick Kluivert shares his thoughts on the Africa Cup of Nations
Former Ajax, Barcelona and Netherlands striker Patrick Kluivert, who is now the assistant coach of the Cameroon national team, shares his thoughts on the upcoming men's Africa Cup of Nations tournament.
Cameroon was recently stripped of the right to host this year鈥檚 tournament as a result of delays and concerns about the potential of violence. The competition will now go ahead in Egypt - and Kluivert believes that will actually benefit the Cameroon team.
Ahead of the Asian Cup Final between Qatar and Japan, we hear more about the local fans throwing shoes at the Qatar players during their semi-final victory over the UAE and what the atmosphere was really like inside the stadium. Plus, we'll hear the thoughts of Qatar coach Felix Sanchez on an appeal from the UAE to the Asian Football Confederation, over the eligibility of two players from Qatar.
And Ole Gunnar Solksjaer is still unbeaten since taking over as Manchester United coach. Another former United player to return to the club is Giuseppe Rossi. He was invited to train with the squad, as he looks to get back to match fitness after a string of horrible injuries. And he tells World Football he's surprised at the way his former team-mate, Solksjaer, has turned things around at United.
