The CWC is a strange tournament that, because of its structure, probably features only 2 at most of the top 100 club sides in the world. But it is what it is and can be a nice little earner. In the context of what they had to face, ACFC did extremely well and we can be justifiably proud of them. In fact this year, their on the pitch performances were so much better in my view than when they mischievously claimed the title of '5th best club side in the world' a few years back. That was the most satisfying aspect.
But as a benchmark,you can drive a bus through the credibility of the tournament as a way of 'ranking' teams and in this regard, getting back to topic, we can be thankful for a relatively naive press. But I'm not going to take them to task. Every bit of attention helps.
