ACN finalists to be decided today (spoilers)

Zambia with the big surprise over Ghana in the first semifinal (Asamoah Gyan still can't score pens in international competition)

Plus, this just looks like a bad idea:

Didier Drogba's Ivory Coast to play Mali later today. I'm pulling for Mali, because I rep'd the hell out of Mali at Model UN. Yes, I was in Model UN, bite me.

Sadly, I missed it, but by all accounts this was a Hollywood finish. I've spoken with several people who said it was the greatest moment in football they'd seen in years when plucky little Zambia defeated the might Ivory Coast on penalties.
