The AFrican Cup Of Nations has started with the opening game taking place yesterday and continuing today- we are caught by the intriguing scream of the fans, the heavy tackles dribbles, suspense in every game and also the individual brilliance of stars on the pitch.
But all of this and have bothered to find out what the AFrican Cup Of Nations is worth in price money that makes some of the top athletes in Africa and world football to play in this tornament
Well, as at last three years the winner of the AFCON goes home with 4.5million dollars in price money AS A COUNTRY,
4.5MILLION DOLLARS, but now CAF- confederations of African football came out to say it has been increased, increased! What a relieve only to hear that it's now 5MILLION DOLLARS IN PRICE MONEY, LIKE 5MILLION DOLLARS,
OKAY stay with me, I believe someone is being infuriated now as in comparison to europe euros the price money for the first is 35MILLION PONDS,
SO EVEN IF THEY HAVE THE ALLSTARS IN FOOTBALL, and they have sponsors agreed, but common in looking at what afcon generates per year in hosting it's far more than just 5million dollars,
Note: that afcon is more physical than any continental comotion and most at times held during tropical seasons in rise of heat,and sun so our boys representing you country,who ply there trade in europe and earn, some more this price money in two months of play comes for our prestigious tornament, is it worth it, is it about the money . Or the passion in football.
