South African soccer fan anxiously awaits a VAR decision after

A South African soccer fan anxiously awaits a VAR decision after Bongani Zungu scored a goal during their team’s African Cup of Nations 2019 (Afcon) quarter-final match against Nigeria, in a bar in Cape Town, South Africa, July 10, 2019. The goal was awarded. International football can bring unimaginable joy to people from all walks of life but can also leave them distraught beyond comprehension, and that range of emotions reaches maximum exposure at the moment the ball hits the net and dreams are realized or shattered. Reuters photographers across the continent have captured those reactions in a series of telling images during the Africa Cup of Nations, which reaches its pinnacle when Algeria and Senegal meet in the final on Friday.
