00:101988 the previous time that Morocco hosted it so to order it gets immediately involved a couple
00:21this is mascarelle trying to bring it down early attack here for the burkinabe that a plenty of
00:27pace up front with the likes of Traore and Wattra
00:40yeah you know they definitely help club and country now a long ball from bazillo and dong
00:46looking for iban salvador this is a fourth cup of nations for salvador little spanish-born terrier
00:53who has a feisty temperament about him but very competitive and he was a big part of
01:00their success referee just sorting out all the pushing and shoving and eventually towards the
01:06back post floated in and again cleared away two good chances early on here for burkina faso but
01:15unfortunately you know there's a player on the line to clear it out it was watarago who got the header in
01:26and looking for the return ball from ganet
01:29back post sudiga but out of a coffee collects comfortably looks to get burkina faso going
01:40quickly back time to order on his own up front
01:43this is louis i swear looking for the return ball from ganet
01:56suminga getting it out wide and the miss challenge means he has a chance
02:01for machine to set something up for equatorial guinea on the edge of the area go
02:06and top soba to yago who gets there ahead of zuniga now traore has a bit of a chase gets the benzer of the
02:18defender two waiting in the middle drags it back this is a chance for bikina faso
02:23intercepted by machine still they attack dango watara
02:29crowd acclaiming a handball none of the players on the field
02:36watra again return ball onto that left foot nice little chip but dealt with at the back by esteban
02:47good passage of play for burkina faso well we've seen those those flashes in the first five minutes
02:52of the game they went a bit quiet and on their back you know a tower has been a harmful you know from the
02:57left side of the left side of the pitch
03:04that's right ref we might have got in the way there as well here goes kawasi pulls it back
03:11the equatorial getting still under threat
03:18that was a late call but the referee got the spot on
03:20the crowd over the head of dio he looked to be well placed there this big center back came steaming in
03:34but he jumped earlier than the you know the bosses and i think uh the manager should be definitely
03:42happy what he's saying in the first uh 28 minutes now basilo back to iban salvador two eight in the
03:50middle here comes the cross out comes coffee fairly comfortable collection for uh now what drago
04:00beaten in the challenge forward they go this is uh machine gets the shot in over the top
04:05system that you know the goalkeeper had the touch probably is a corner kick but has a good effort
04:11from uh equatorial guinea yellow card in there as well from the egyptian official how close was that
04:23from uh machine oh oh i think this will go this will go definitely the vr this looks like the red card
04:30uh tackle for me well it's uh captain aka paul who was leave it for kawasi he's impressed on this left
04:40hand side a little chip ball in search of uh top soba who's pushed forward now towards the back post
04:48dango water has gone across onto the right hand flank to there can you get it square or no
04:55punch that way almost flat batter that ball away from the danger zone
05:05they've been that they have on the field
05:12top soba likes to go forward when he can't drills this uh over onto the right hand side
05:17to the water with iago ball into the middle for one oh well watch that go away for a corner
05:28they'll be looking for those uh two tall center backs claude this one curls straight into the arms of
05:34the goalkeeper
05:38far back looking for possession now kabore he has done the water good chance water again gets the shot in
05:48and it will go away off esteban for a corner kick pressure
05:59what drago comes away with it tori in the middle there's a bit of space now for bukina faso out wide
06:03here to kawasi two eight in the middle early ball might be a little bit too close to the keeper or
06:10water comes off his line with good confidence again order seeing uh elgeria who probably the top side in
06:17this group how they do against sudan no easy start for them but uh they could be one of the favorites
06:25for this tournament oh where's the dark horses top sober throw that dango water stopped by esteban
06:35they do get the shot in through kabore but he puts it over the top they were beaten by cameroon but
06:40bounced back and went all the way to the semi-final lost to egypt and in fact were beaten by uh diog congo in the
06:49bronze medal match they were leading uh 4-1 with uh four minutes to go somehow conceded three goals one
06:55of the great matches at the cup of nations full of drama for all it ended and then uh two penalties
07:02for all the time here in casablanca uh a match that uh has had a
07:12venue here in casablanca they used in this tournament a new stadium being built
07:17for the 2030 world cup just outside the city limits
07:25matches today in the african cup of nations uh to follow will be
07:30from rabats from marrakesh and agadir in the south
07:36day off of course tomorrow on christmas day there's a rest for everyone concerned at this tournament
07:43after a game apiece and back in action on friday he has a chance for bikina faso early on
07:48so i water with the left foot not enough power really to trouble uh jesus or wono i think dango
07:55should have uh you know taken that chance by himself he was right there in the middle why
07:58don't you take a strike why pass the ball to tiara who is uh you know who is away from the target
08:07top sober will take the clearing uh goal kick
08:10top sober will take looking up front for carol boore
08:17good challenge in there from bloody today whoa drogo here is the skipper batran throw order
08:21gets the free kick
08:24just the one yellow card in the first half
08:30maybe now or if he's going to come across and issue a second he
08:36didn't seem so inclined initially but now he puts bazillo and dong into the book
08:44maybe he has a call from you know from the vr but you know it looks like it wasn't
08:50intentional but i just hope that you know teoria can get back on his feet
08:54because he looks like he's in pain
08:56yes the channel oh yes that is catches him on the
09:02back of the leg the achilles tendon oh no no that looks ugly
09:08well he's going to the vr the referee has been sent to the vr so
09:15basilo and dong is likely to see the fullback sent off for an early shower
09:23well hopefully you know right you know he looks worried when the camera caught him
09:28having checked he is changing his decision
09:32and the yellow will be rescinded and basilo and dong
09:38will depart and there are not too many complaints from the fullback he looks
09:43absolutely shattered by that decision but uh a clumsy challenge and the first
09:48red of the tournament yeah it's clumsy you know it wasn't intentional
09:52but very very clumsy he knows it now playing in major league soccer with
09:57the portland timbers
10:03coco comes across and clears uh kwasi traore
10:09cuts inside for water early ball gets it back again
10:14take it away by machine looking to establish himself as a number one
10:21gunnets for equatorial guinea 10-man equatorial guinea
10:25under loses out referee says play on
10:34ball inside pushing forward now with uh sangare lovely pass saved by owono
10:45excellent chance for bikini better than the way he struck that ball
10:48well he's had his chances in the game today dango watara here's another one
11:00straight at owono that's a pass that's a pass you know you should be
11:04looking at you know uh putting the ball you know uh side of the goalkeeper
11:09top sober pushing forward square ball header oh there's another good opportunity and this time it
11:20falls for kabore then defense and the water cross but probably he hit the ball too fast you know too
11:27hard and a bit behind you know for the player to have the contact that he really wanted
11:32as kwasi the provider i think kabore would be disappointed that he put that wide he scored a hat
11:38trick against ethiopia and the world cup qualifies in october free header towards the back post for
11:45landre kabore from hearts of benlothian in edinburgh scotland
11:49away for a corner pressure continues now bikini faso just squeezing uh equatorial guinea down to 10 of
12:00course the men in red and the bukinabe looking to use this advantage owono gets a little touch
12:07back time to order on the edge of the penalty area
12:13takes on too much he looks a bit tired now baton trahore machine
12:17with side charles hondo
12:25but a space here for mascarella as well carlos acapo on the charge down the right machine
12:32pablo gane has a shot and puts it wide those are the spaces i'm talking about they always have those
12:39spaces in the pocket even with 10 men they still find their way to get you know those pockets and
12:43that believe me burkina should be wary and be very careful of getting to giving away those spaces
12:52now here come burkina faso into the penalty area tango watara square ball high up in the air from
12:59esteban
13:02asked to come and play in that tournament but uh wasn't sure about whether he wanted to commit for
13:06ecuatorial guinea but after seeing what he did what they did in abijani changed his mind
13:13that's muscat i'll just give me a little touch on that as well
13:16and now me now
13:17in the top flight in france at nantes ganet there's space out wide acapo the skipper is he going to have
13:29a shot gets the shot in and is not far away and you can see the frustration of herve coffee who uh
13:37watched his defense a free shot there for equatorial guinea skipper now he should he he should be angry
13:43because they just kept backpedaling backpedaling allowing him to shoot you know but you know that's
13:54see uh late confirmation also of charles ondo coming on a little bit earlier satiago and name
14:01for equatorial guinea 20 minutes for the this trio to make an impact and there it comes the goal
14:08almost immediately off the bench from la cena trawone he's had his injury problems over the
14:15last year what a dramatic return what a girl well you know what a time to score a goal coming off the
14:21bench your first touch and you're right there at the right time at the right moment to just uh
14:26you know clutch it into uh into the net
14:28this is what uh you know our coaches love you know it make that substitution and get
14:35the impact that you you said let's have a look it was locked towards the back posts
14:42is that on side it looks uh it looks it looks off to me but we'll see what
14:52we are will say because it looks like he's uh he's offside because dango water who played the header in
15:00this might require a little bit of a check the celebration caught shots i think
15:06let's see that trawone just squeezing it under uh or no but it's always good to see a coach you know
15:17what believe in the player that uh this might be ruled out we wait to uh here they checking it
15:23in the var room was he on the side was he offside la cena trawone is that dream return to action
15:32going to be annulled here by the egyptian referee and by the var team what's the decision
15:40offside wow that would have been a matter of inches but what a let off for equatorial getting
15:47that's just it and the rules keep changing every second man now it is pablo ganet with the free kick
15:56overcooked a little bit and uh is there a way through for burkina faso as his key
16:05top sober little chip over the top looking for dango water clearing header from esteban
16:10one play on no referee says foul that was uh off the flank comes meningo he looks uh lively wants to
16:22get involved wants to return ball to the byline let's get that in play oh that's an excellent
16:28chance for azizki dango water puts that wide over the top that's unlocking from aziz he did everything
16:34right you know uh but it wouldn't have counted the flag was up
16:47where was the upside yeah that's
16:51he stopped the ball he brought it back in there there's the defender pretty much uh blocking the
16:57goalkeeper
16:58and where the flag went up from the linesman on the near side
17:09santiago enemy left footed cross to the near post get the corner
17:17left-sided defender he holds the ball pretty well so you know he takes on to the defenders
17:23equatorial guinea looking for the opening goal they've got it my word this is a country
17:33who'll keep creating the shocks
17:39scores with five minutes to go sensational
17:44football and they keep pulling the surprises surprises from two years ago
17:48you know in abidjan and uh what a pull out from the you know from the corner kick and what a header
17:55you know that's what football is all about that's what the average company cup of nation is all about
18:00you know you're one man down you don't give up you got a player stand up but still you are in the game
18:05we still have about seven minutes six plus at a time if they can hold on what a surprise this will have
18:12been marvin anibo he's only just come onto the field what an impact at the set piece for equatorial guinea
18:25floated towards the back post good strong header climbs above the defense power on that no chance for
18:31airway coffee
18:37we're hoping that he doesn't get to a nil-nil draw you know in the first game and then we got the what a header
18:43what a header you can see how no you know all the stretch that he did he couldn't get to the ball
18:51see how the equatorial guinea will manage you know their game they've been doing it pretty well
18:56with the one man down now that they're one goal up we'll see how they're going to manage it
19:00honey ball plays in the fourth league in spain incredible story
19:08yeah the fairy tale stories of this cup of nations uh are numerous that's for sure minungu
19:15long ball into the area looking for dungo water they're going to be desperate now but kina faso
19:20they will be somewhat shell-shocked can they get another one santiago anime up to
19:26dorian jr the two substitutes good running in as well square ball from ondo another corner
19:34everyone inside equatorial guinea's half except for the burkin abe keeper coffee square ball here
19:43header is over the top good chance again this time for the defender dio couldn't take it
19:52in ecuatorial guinea got just one from a corner kick you know buried it's probably one of the best
19:59headed goal that you will see morocco
20:01now aziz key tango watara again over the top they cannot find the target
20:12so looking for opportunities yeah he's again heading the ball away from play
20:17under four minutes remain can they get a point top sober little ball inside charts again a little slip
20:26and a goal minungu they pull one back
20:36the man from seattle sounders in major league soccer it's come five minutes into stoppage time
20:48it's a good pressure the pressure kept coming you know the goal came at the right time for
20:53them you know there are still three more minutes to play if the cultural guinea could start the game
20:58probably you know another they can easily have probably another one or two chance that they can
21:03end up it's a good through pass in a good down if the ball wasn't scored i think he'll have gotten
21:08the penalty but it's a well struck you know there's the dummy you know and pull leg and what a finish
21:17well it was almost a bit of fortunate about that because he looked to lose his footing here dango
21:22watara as the challenge is made well there he's taken down it's a penalty if the goal hasn't been
21:28scored and minungu was on to that what i was looking at the referee then didn't bother when he
21:35realized his teammate had put it in the back of the net i took his eye off the ball there bloody
21:41two day perhaps uh tired after his exertions in this game the crowd are willing them forward now
21:48burkina faso can they get a late winner here this is either who's just come on
21:56the defender scores burkina faso we're going to win this one
22:09told you three minutes is a lifetime to play in football the way it's going with a one man down
22:14with the way pressures kept coming you know the tired legs of the equatorial guinea you could have
22:18easily you easily can see it coming and what a way to celebrate you can see the whole of the bench dash
22:24across the pitch went straight to the goalscorer to celebrate talk about pulling the fat out of the
22:32fire burkina faso with two goals in stoppage time have turned it around here and i'm going to take
22:40the points in the opening match in group e strong header from edmund topsober from bayer leverkusen the
22:49other german base player in this team either with a cross which awano flapped straight onto topsober's
22:56head a little bit of a gift there from the equatorial guinea goalkeeper but edmund topsober
23:04will be the hero for les etalon of burkina faso a good play from uh you know from area b you know
23:13a one-on-one good dribble he has a skill you know took the man on went around the man and brought in
23:18a beautiful cross like you likely say it's a gift because that's a ball for a goalkeeper to come pick
23:24it up but you know when the legs are tired and all that you can get all that but you know uh
23:31good luck for uh for them moving forward because a bit of notch going forward into the next game well
23:37we've had nine minutes that'll be it burkina faso win what's a result here in group e 1-0 they were
23:45down as we went into stoppage time two goals at the death burkina
