BATA, Equatorial Guinea - Neighbours Equatorial Guinea and Gabon will suspend their close friendship on Sunday as the teams meet in a decisive match for a quarterfinal place at the African Cup of Nations. Montravius Adams Jersey .The hopes of host Equatorial Guinea — and maybe the organizers hopes for good crowds for the rest of the African Cup — rest on a win over Gabon at Bata Stadium as the final round of group games begin.New coach Esteban Becker has referred to his Equatorial Guinea as a team for the future, but it needs to deliver now to reach the last eight, satisfy the home fans and keep them coming back to the stadiums. Its a common theme at African Cups that, when the host goes out, attendances tend to dip.Equatorial Guinea is unbeaten in Group A, but also didnt convert impressive periods into wins with draws against Republic of Congo and Burkina Faso.Gabon, which co-hosted the 2012 Cup of Nations with Equatorial Guinea, appeared to be the groups best team after opening with a slick 2-0 win over 2013 finalist Burkina Faso. But the unpredictability of the African Cup struck when the Gabonese then lost to Republic of Congo, which has qualified for its first championship in 15 years.Gabon has better players, led by Germany-based striker and captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. But Equatorial Guinea will have most of the 35,000-strong crowd in Bata urging it on.If Equatorial Guinea does win, itll be a poor way to repay Gabon for the 20 buses it provided to help with the hosting of Africas soccer championship.While Equatorial Guinea plays Gabon at Bata, Republic of Congo and Burkina Faso meet in Ebebiyin. The African Cups schedule changes for the last round of group games, which are played simultaneously and not back-to-back at the same stadium like earlier fixtures.With the last group games, theres also often a set of complex scenarios depending on who wins, who draws and who loses — and by how many goals.For the Congolese, its simple: After their torrid buildup — which included problems with their hotel and team bus — they need at least a draw against Burkina Faso to make the quarterfinals for the first time in over two decades.Burkina Faso has been disappointing in Equatorial Guinea after making the final two years ago, but still has an outside chance of squeezing through to the quarters if it beats Republic of Congo and the result of the Equatorial Guinea-Gabon game is also favourable.The hopes of the Burkinabes rest on finally finding their attacking game. Highly-rated forwards Alain Traore, Jonathan Pitroipa and Aristide Bance have all come up short so far, with Burkina Faso the only one of the 16 teams at the tournament yet to find the net.Unfortunately we cannot score and thats the problem, coach Paul Put said. Thats the game. Matt Flynn Jersey . John Albert Elway, 24, was booked into jail early Saturday morning after an incident near a college campus in downtown Denver, according to jail records.

Head coach Corey Chamblin announced on Monday that Avon Cobourne had been hired as the defending Grey Cup champions new running backs coach.LONDON -- Tottenham hired Mauricio Pochettino as the clubs new manager on a five-year contract on Tuesday, with the former Argentina defender making the move from fellow Premier League side Southampton. Pochettino replaced Tim Sherwood, who was fired on May 13 after just five months in the job following Tottenhams sixth-place finish in the league. The 42-year-old Pochettino developed a strong reputation for playing a positive, attacking brand of football in his 18 months at Southampton, which he joined from Spanish side Espanyol when he replaced Nigel Adkins. Southampton finished eighth in the standings last season, with its highest Premier League points haul of 56. "This is a club with tremendous history and prestige and I am honoured to have been given this opportunity to be its head coach," Pochettino said. "There is an abundance of top-class talent at the club and I am looking forward to starting work with the squad. We are determined to give the supporters the kind of attacking football and success that we are all looking to achieve." Pochettino is the eighth permanent manager to be appointed in Spurs chairman Daniel Levys 13 years at the club. "In Mauricio I believe we have a head coach who, with his high energy, attacking football, will embrace the style of play we associate with our club," Levy said in a statement. "He has a proven ability to develop each player as an individual, whilst building great team spirit and a winning mentality. We have a talented squad that Mauricio is excited to be coaching nexxt season. Geronimo Allison Jersey. " Tottenham aspires to qualify for the Champions League again, having played one season alongside Europes elite in 2010-11. Following the sale of winger Gareth Bale to Real Madrid for 100 million euros (then $132 million), the North-London club went through a chaotic season that has featured defeats of 6-0 and 5-1 to Manchester City, 5-0 at home to Liverpool and a change of manager when Andre Villas-Boas was replaced by Sherwood. Pochettinos arrival could also help relaunch the career of forward Erik Lamela, who has struggled to adapt to the Premier League and was hampered by a series of injuries since joining the club for an estimated 30 million pounds ($50.41 million) fee. Although he was beaten twice by Sherwood last season, the former Espanyol boss led Southampton to its highest-ever Premier League finish. He will keep working with his own staff, with assistant coach Jesus Perez, first team coach Miguel DAgostino and goalkeeper coach Toni Jimenez all following him to White Hart Lane. Southampton said it has begun its search for a "high-calibre" manager, with Sherwood reportedly an option to replace Pochettino alongside the likes of Malky Mackay, Steve McClaren, Murat Yakin and Michael Laudrup. "The club has been on a constant path of growth since the arrival of (the late owner) Markus Liebherr in 2009," Saints chairman Ralph Krueger said. "This growth took place before Mauricio came, it continued strongly under his leadership, and it will continue into the next season." ' ' '
