00:00well we would not extol that long enough it's already very dire consequences for that yeah
00:06referee gets us underway in the all-white are the falcons of sudan or the burkinabe stallions
00:12are in green with a slush of red in there to keep them going and uh right off the onset looking to
00:18attack if it's anything to go by the national anthems of both these countries we're expecting
00:26a big battle here because both of the national anthems speak of the pride and the fight that
00:31they have to give for their nation so we hope that that is going to be translated onto this field of
00:35play right now and we get to see some good football from both teams looking to launch that ball early
00:42up front yogi you know go is going to be one of those men they'll look out for lacina traure is
00:53the other that is expected to shoulder the burden today of looking for dividends up front man that
01:00does ply his trade for shakta doneske it's only had about uh 46 minutes in total in this tournament
01:06so far has had to play a big piece to the likes of kabori isa as well as pierre kabori who plays for
01:19hearts of midlyothen tonight starts on the bench he's been their preferred man up front as there's
01:23a foul behind now going forward to look for attacks key
01:32traure lasina just unable to control that and uh muscled off the ball aboja
01:42so dan is going to have to watch out for bloody trauri brett let it to ray and stephan key in that
01:48middle of the park they're very very smart players they like to play these little passes in the
01:51middle and they can always find their range so they'll need to go a little bit tighter whenever
01:56they are in possession top sober starts the move once again burkina faso in the first quarter of an
02:02hour already mounting 12 attacks
02:07they haven't really had much to show for it in terms of testing out the goalkeeper just as yet this
02:12could be the opening as stephan azizky gets in their numbers in the box area attempts the cross free
02:18header first attempt first time he appears on the screen and lasina trauri plants that firmly to the
02:27back of the net one shot one kill for the shakta duneska man and that was sublime attack from the
02:36pokinavis and they now have the lead yeah very poor player there in the middle of the park from
02:43gadin he just tried to hold on to the ball wasn't very sure what to do with the ball and he was pressed
02:47high looking a fast finish from them awad zayed was caught in two minds as the counter attack was sprung
02:54here azizky with a presence just to dink that ball into the box and waiting in acres of space
03:02lazina trauri plants that brilliantly into an empty net and burkina faso have rigged the rewards for
03:10their intensity of the first couple of minutes yeah gadin should know and we are going to see more of
03:16that run because that's one of his trademark runs so watch out for that run from him
03:20and he is uh playing the game here for free book
03:42another boss was extremely pesky as we get confirmation algeria currently in the lead
03:46against equatorial guinea burkina faso now have to turn on their defensive blinders
03:54they get in that was a little sloppy and that's a penalty
03:59they switched off and sudan get the dividends for perseverance it looked very clumsy most unlikely
04:10but that's been sudan they know no other way than to keep going keep plotting keep trying and they've
04:17been given their reward penalty if they can convert it who would bring this game which one
04:25a couple of defensive errors here have been the hallmarks of the game yeah but i think uh have
04:32very coffee there just made a really mess of that one because he caught for the ball and he should have
04:36gone in diving because he could see that the the sudanese striker was chasing that ball so he had to
04:43make a decision whether he was going to cast the ball or clear it but he chose to want to go and shoot
04:48the play and unfortunately well james quesse apia can barely look at the pitch and uh coffee continues to
04:55protest his innocence but uh the referee's decision is made amin omar making it pretty clear that any further
05:04protests could attract even heavier penalties here and it's the man that earned the right to take
05:11it from the sport that will step up to dispatch of it al-gozoli no mohammed could get the second goal
05:20here for sudan as he lines up takes the short and it's wide it's always a lottery with the penalty
05:29sometimes you hit many times you could miss this is one of those opportunities where it's
05:36the latter rather than those we get another look at uh the build up and the run into that penalty
05:42i'm not certain well having never been in such a particular situation i'm not certain where it went
05:47wrong in was it the technique was it the choice of power the choice of power there the executioner's
05:53numerals at the end of each team as for the moment burkina faso take their tally to six that leaves
06:00sudan with three equatorial guinea get to register a point in this year's edition of the african cup of
06:07nations foul it is free kick very normal this game and omar's been in the thick of it all and the referee
06:17has had enough and it's a yellow card shown to cedric bardolo going into the book and that plays for
06:25sputak tranava went in a little hefty there just stood his ground a moment too long yeah just catches
06:37the heel of abdallah play and a little bit of pressure and caution or else he's going to have
06:43himself on elisha quick free kick restarted and a chance here with numbers and they miss that ball
06:50goes wide will that count as a goal kick well for some reason sudan are protesting that maybe that
06:56should be a corner question should be that was supposed to be a goal two players one-on-one with
07:03a goalkeeper you need to make that goalkeeper work
07:06would you look at that it looks like it actually took a touch of coffee yeah it did poor communication
07:16ending from sudan as well to stop in his trucks near post this time is the delivery and it gets back to
07:22aziz switches stance and tries to play to the far end kept alive but uh to no major avail cut back
07:32to re out to the wing floated in once again another cross this one uh not with the precision that
07:41would become a custom to clear away chance for a counter-attack but could not control that ball
07:48was a good opportunity once again for eltae yes sir yeah it would have been a very good break
07:55unfortunately just didn't see the recovering run from tapsoba and then unless it bounce which runs
08:01away from him well the referee makes the confirmation that the 45 minutes have come
08:09and gone by and it's a solitary goal from lasina traure that separates the suicides
08:16irae has had a very powerful performance in here continuing to disrupt proceedings but they'll need
08:22to do more especially that back line if they're to have a better showing in the second half half time
08:28right here at muhammad the fifth stadium in casablanca it's sudan nil burkina faso one
08:42it's so killian he came up is the man that is uh going to take his place in the sticks here for the second 45 minutes for the stallions of burkina faso
08:54it's so killian he came up is the man that is uh going to take his place in the sticks here for the second 45 minutes for the stallions of burkina faso
09:10interestingly yesterday uganda became the first team to use all three of its goalkeepers in one match dennis
09:18so nyango starting in that game picking up an injury jamal salim thrown in in the second half and
09:26shown a red card before nafi and alianzi had to come on and finish off uh the final few minutes
09:33game where uganda got annihilated so another record tidbit in there a start for you
09:39finally underway for the second half there's confirmation nikema is the man that comes in to
09:47take the place of havre kofi as the second half is now in full effect no changes for
09:56the roster of uh sudan the falcons carry on as it was
10:00quick start long searching clearance lacking in the background is stephen aziz key the ball now finds
10:13its way to ira here in possession squeezes it here for toure
10:22fails to get onto that ball but uh does enough to recover timely drifts his way in the midfield nice
10:31pickup cedric badolo badolo now to simpore saidu
10:40edmond taps over fancy a chance to go forward once again
10:44very confident goalkeeping from killian there that would do him a world of good indeed
10:55i mean you want to be in there and show everybody that you're up the desk you've got the confidence
11:00and that's exactly what you showed there with that set piece good delivery into the box there
11:04but a very safe pair of hands as well and handles that ball very well
11:14you just see looking a fossil started off where they left off in the first half just being nice and easy
11:24nice through pass up to the flank and this could be something important in here takes the dribble
11:28the shot comes through misguided there'll be questions on whether there was wisdom to attempt to take
11:35a touch and a dribble from georgie minongu probably could have taken a shot in the first instance
11:43whole of fame of could halves and should halves
11:48in the end he's only left uh wondering if the decision he made in that situation was the best
11:54i bear dare say that uh sudan have kept them in the lead sudan could have taken that lead from them
12:02exactly exactly
12:03it looks like sudan are comfortable with this this this this colin because either or they know that
12:10they are through the second round well not quite as at the moment they'll now try to get bodies forward
12:15on the attack the goalie with the shot while the goalkeeper was rooted to his sport not certainly
12:24even had a clue on heading need through pass brilliant dummy nice touch the short wayward the wrong side of
12:35the pole pose demeanor despite having picked up an alley yellow card
12:43launched him play on a few occasions for pyramids fc of egypt very intelligent player always keeps it cool
12:50and calm and just gets his side going he just goes about his business
12:54the full pass here quesce dribbles one way sets it up question with the cut back step and kill with the
13:04shot a little flimsy needed a bit more venom behind it if it was to cause any trouble
13:12the attack
13:15one that uh proves futile and sudan will now this has come on very confident good with his feet as well
13:24but then as the
13:26it's accepted in mid-air tear now trying to put his physicality to good use but uh
13:32ball still lost the turnover oh and that was a clumsy coming together referee says uh free for all
13:39carry on abdallah with the step over looks for a twist and a turn and turns his man inside out
13:45opportunity and killian oh the bicycle kick is not effective or affirmative
13:53a killian coming to put a stop to that and the falcons once again prove fight back yeah one of the
14:02best players of this game so far has been amma abdallah he has really caught all
14:07yeah you can see uh looking up also trying to find georgie there he still seems to have the energy to
14:17to run up and down and they still look what look for him to make that run behind the sudanese defense
14:22that has been their win point in this game
14:37he had no business being there actually but you see he's been one of those those players that has
14:57has been is very good going up and down and he just decided to stay up there and receives a very
15:02very good pass from dango watara and a very good finish from a defender what a good finish from him
15:12yeah
15:28Yeah, he's actually very lucky
15:42because the defender actually had a foot on the ball
15:45and it took a little deflection past the goalkeeper
15:47and helps it into the back of the net.
15:50A threat here for Burkina Faso
15:52and kept the Falcons quiet on their tenterhooks.
15:58Adil won't continue,
16:00not with the way he's sitting sprawled on the ground here
16:04and referee signals for the stretcher.
16:11The medical team will have to come on and look to evacuate him.
16:16Zograda picks up a yellow card for his troubles.
16:19Yeah, Adil, sad loss for Sudan.
16:25They'll be hoping that he'll be okay for the next game
16:26because he's a very, very important player for them
16:28and they'll want to make sure that they get him straight
16:32to the medical room and patch him up.
16:36They already have the points in the bag.
16:39Ninety-second minute and twenty more of the seconds
16:47before we get to the ninety-third.
16:50They'll look to attack again the Falcons.
16:52Merzine.
16:54Justing and turning through the center of the park.
16:57Abdullah Mohamed Abuga gets it onto
17:01Abdullah Ibrahim onto the flank.
17:05Can he fashion out a cross?
17:07Seems to be into a stance.
17:08Goes for a looping ball.
17:12They'll try to catch the entire defense unaware.
17:15They thought it looks like he was aiming for that far post.
17:18Good technique with that.
17:20Yeah, if there's any player who could have got Sudan.
17:24Well, they have a corner for their troubles
17:26and they'll try to whip the ball into the final third.
17:31Picked up in the midfield.
17:32Lance fortunately well enough for them.
17:34Abdullah wants the one-two.
17:35I'm not sure he's going to get it in this position.
17:38Teya twists and turns.
17:40Just unable to step in at the right moment.
17:45Sudan want to finish on a high here.
17:47They're ready to give it an all-go since
17:50although nothing it is right now,
17:52they have absolutely nothing to lose.
17:55Well, except maybe the ball if they keep crossing it that way.
17:58And that's the final bit of action.
18:01Amin Omar brings the game to a close.
18:05Sudan fashioned out a couple of opportunities.
18:08But in the end, clinicality was the lacking aspect.
18:12One that was carried in droves by none other than the stallions of Burkina Faso.
18:20Asen Kowasi scoring a goal in the second half
18:23after Lassina Traore did pop one in in the first half.
18:29And that's the final scoreline at the Muhammad V Stadium in Casablanca.
