Mali 1-1 Guinea

Mali and Guinea will be hoping for lady luck to smile their way after they finished their respective group matches tied in every aspect. Tournament rules dictate in such a scenario,lots must be cast in the next 24 hours to decide who goes through.
The Syli Nationale took an early lead,Kevin Constant tucking away a penalty on fourteen minutes. Skipper Seydou Traore missed an equal opportunity from the spot,his weak effort well saved as the Eagles sought to restore parity.
