Winner of Mauritania (2-0), Mali took first place in group F. It will meet Equatorial Guinea in the round of 16 of the CAN.

Mali held its standing for its last outing in this first round. The selection of Mohamed Magassouba did not tremble to tame Mauritania. Superior in all areas of the game – duels, collective control, number of shots -, the Eagles did not really have to force their talent to sign this life-saving success, which propelled them to first place in group F.

Mali sure of its strength

The first Malian wave, concluded by a resident of Ligue 1, was the good one. By unblocking the situation after one minute and 32 seconds, the Lensois Massadio Haïdara scored the fastest goal of this Coupe d Africa Nations 2021.

Mali then managed their advantage serenely, before taking the break at another key moment in the meeting, as soon as the locker room returned, on a penalty transformed with authority by Ibrahima Koné (2-0, 49th ap). The score has not changed despite endless stoppages. Best student of this homogeneous chicken, Mali will therefore face Equatorial Guinea in the round of 16 . The contract is fulfilled. With mention.
