February 26 – Former Liverpool defender, Jamie Carragher has drawn the ire of former Manchester United defender, Rio Ferdinand with his comments disparaging the African Cup of Nations (AFCON).
Carragher was talking in the aftermath of Liverpool’s 2-0 win over Manchester City and suggested that Liverpool forward, Mohamed Salah, will struggle to win the Ballon d’Or because he plays for Egypt.
