MALABO, Equatorial Guinea - Guinea wont be able to rely on simple luck at the African Cup anymore.The west African country, one of the three worst affected by the Ebola outbreak, won a drawing of lots this week to get its spot in the quarterfinals of the tournament. The national team will next face Ghana on Sunday.I can say we have luck and I can say we deserve it also, Guinea captain Ibrahima Traore said Saturday. Tomorrow is a big day for all Guinea, after all weve been through.In the other quarterfinal match later Sunday at Malabo Stadium, tournament favourite Ivory Coast will play Algeria. The Ivorians came into the tournament as one of the favourites, but Guineas path to the quarterfinals has become a fascinating tale.The team was unable to host qualifying matches, instead playing home games in Morocco and away matches at opposing countries — in many cases getting frequent temperature checks to test for symptoms of Ebola. But the Guineans qualified despite the difficulties and the hardships, and they have played well through three draws in three matches in Equatorial Guinea.I was very impressed, not just because of football, Ghana coach Avram Grant said of Guinea. Their spirit is good. Its not easy for this country. I have a lot of respect to them.The route to the quarterfinals wasnt straightforward, however. After their third straight 1-1 draw, the Guineans and Malians were exactly tied for second place in Group D. To separate them, two green balls were put into a bowl on Thursday at a hotel in Malabo and the representative from Guinea chose the one that got them through.Sometimes you can say that when you work hard, you deserve the luck, Guinea coach Michel Dussuyer said. Of course we have been lucky with the draw, but before the draw we have fought very hard to reach this level.In qualifying, Guinea and Ghana were in the same group, so they have played twice recently. Ghana held Guinea to a 1-1 draw in Morocco before winning 3-1 at home.The Ivory Coast came into the tournament as one of the favourites, mainly due to its star-filled starting lineup. With Yaya Toure and Wilfried Bony alone, the Ivorians may have the best two players at the competition.But they started slowly in Equatorial Guinea, being held to 1-1 draws by both Guinea and Mali. It was only after a 1-0 victory over Cameroon in the final group match that Ivory Coast assured itself a spot in the quarterfinals.We are just thinking about victory, Ivory Coast coach Herve Renard said. We wont be happy after the competition if we are in semifinals and we lose. Or even if we play the final. Because if you play one final — and you lose this final — its terrible.It will always come into your mind for the rest of your life. Jalyn Holmes Jersey .

Check out todays trade-related reports and speculation from around the NHL beat, including Martin Brodeurs apparent willingness to leave New Jersey. Open for Business? The long-time face of the New Jersey Devils franchise has stated that he might be okay with finishing his career as a temporary face for another franchise. Martin Brodeur told New Jerseys The Record that hed be open to a move that would see him leave New Jersey in favour of more playing time. “Im open to anything,” Brodeur told The Records Tom Gulitti. “I just want to play. So, like I said in Toronto, if theres a better situation for me, Ill take it. If its here or somewhere else, it doesnt matter.” That said, TSN Hockey Insider Bob McKenzie believes that the best fit for Brodeur might well be in East Rutherford for the duration of this season, especially since creasemate Cory Schneider has already opened the door for Brodeur once this season.

With the possibility that Robidas may not be healthy enough to deal by the deadline and with Jim Nill reportedly only willing to move prospects of picks in "the right deal," Heika believes the Stars would be best served keeping it simple and keep the focus on stockpiling picks and prospects. The Stars enter Thursday nights games seven points back of eighth-place Vancouver with two games in hand.
