Nations Cup produces low goal count

By Ghana FA

With every side having played a game so far at the 2013 African Cup of Nations, there is a low goal count.

After the opening eight game in all four groups, only 13 goals have been scored between the 16 participating teams.

And that is an average of 1.63 a game - the lowest number since there were five goals in the opening eight games in 2002 with an average of 0.63 goals a game.

The highest recent figure was the 26 goals scored in the opening eight games of the 2008 competition in Ghana.
