If you’re a big fan of ’90s Britpop, then today’s headlines may mislead you into being very excited. Bad news is that Didier Drogba will not be appearing with the band Cast in some sort of weird rap reunion tour. Good news is that Cote d’Ivoire striker Drogba – who famously fractured his forearm in the build up to World Cup 2010, has had his cast approved by FIFA. Which means that if he’s fit enough to play against Portugal today, then he’ll be able to do so while wearing the cast.
We haven’t seen the cast yet, but apparently both the referees and representatives from the Portugal team are happy that the cast won’t be a menace to opposition players. Drogba on the other hand, might be. We’ll find out if he makes the starting lineup soon, so follow along with George on our Portugal vs Cote d’Ivoire.
UPDATE: Word is that Drogba has been named on the bench. So he won’t start, but he might play.
