In today's Radio Foot summary, a look back at the CAN 2021 draw in Yaoundé, it offers beautiful posters and an enticing first round!

- Algeria / Ivory Coast confrontation in group E, Nigeria / Egypt shock in D, attractive derby in sight between Senegalese and Guineans in pool B. - Cameroon, the host country, rather spared?

Publicity

Watch out for the Burkinabè from the opening match!

- Two rookies at CAN, Gambians and Comorians will not be at the party!

The Coelacanths will scrape against Gabon, Morocco and Ghana.

- Can the players of the archipelago create a sensation?

Elements of answer with our guest Kassim Oumouri, commentator of the matches on the ORTC.

- The Gambians in a pool where Tunisians, Malians and Mauritanians will meet as in 2019!

- In Monaco trapped on the Rock.

A jump-off from C1, badly negotiated, Kovac's men, clumsy, conceded a goal and defeat against Shakhar Donetsk, used to the competition.

Have they mortgaged their chances of qualifying?

- 1st trophy for Nagelsmann with the "Rotens"!

- A "Klassiker" won at the expense of Dortmund, with a Lewandowski still as clinical.

Around Annie Gasnier today, Kassim Oumouri, Frank Simon and Patrick Juillard.

Preparation: Pierre Guérin, production: Laurent Salerno.
