OFFICIAL: Emilio Nsue wins PUMA Golden Boot award at AFCON
Despite Equatorial Guinea’s round of 16 exit from the TotalEnergies CAF Africa Cup of Nations Côte d’Ivoire 2023, Emilio Nsue emerged as the tournament’s top scorer, earning him the PUMA Golden Boot award.
Nsue began his impressive campaign with a hat-trick against Guinea Bissau in the second round of matches, the tournament’s first and only hat-trick.
He continued his scoring form with a brace against host Cotê d’Ivoire in Equatorial Guinea’s 4-0 victory in the last group game.
With this achievement, Nsue joins an illustrious list of goal scorers, including Samuel Eto’o, Didier Drogba, Vincent Aboubakar, and Odion Ighalo, who have won the top scorer awards in the history of TotalEnergies CAF AFCON. Angola’s Jacinto Dala closely followed Nsue with four goals in the tournament.

Man Utd CANCEL end of season dinner following worst campaign under Ten Hag
Manchester United has reportedly cancelled their end-of-season awards meal, originally scheduled for May 20, to avoid distracting players ahead of the FA Cup final against Manchester City.
This tradition, dating back more than a decade, typically includes prizes for men’s, women’s, and academy team players, such as the Sir Matt Busby Player of the Year Award.
This decision, consulted with Erik ten Hag and management, marks the second time in three years that the ceremony has been called off.
Despite the cancellation of the gathering, awards will still be voted for and handed out among the players.
The cancellation comes amid a challenging season for United’s men’s team, currently sitting eighth in the Premier League and on course for their worst finish in the club’s Premier League history.
In contrast, the women’s team recently celebrated success by lifting the FA Cup with a 4-0 win over Tottenham.

Arsenal supporters MOCK Old Trafford’s leaking roof as they celebrate returning to top
Manchester United faced another setback on Sunday as rain poured through Old Trafford’s leaky roof after a home defeat to Arsenal.
Despite improvements from their previous match, Erik ten Hag’s side couldn’t find the net, succumbing to a 1-0 loss.
The sudden thunderstorms exposed issues with the roof, leading to a torrent of water cascading onto the pitch.
Fans had to seek cover, highlighting the sorry state of the iconic stadium.
Many supporters expressed frustration on social media, criticizing the Glazers for neglecting Old Trafford’s upkeep and maintenance.
Some fans called for immediate action to fix the roof and address other stadium issues, pointing out that the neglect has left the club trailing behind others.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe, following his purchase of the club, planned significant upgrades, including addressing the roof and other infrastructure problems.
The decline of Old Trafford, once a premier stadium, has become symbolic of the Glazers’ neglect over the past 18 years.
As rivals enjoy modern facilities, Manchester United’s stadium woes have become a target for mockery, with even opposing fans singing about its deterioration.
