AFCON 2012: Gabon Vs Mali (4 - 5) On Pens 5th February 2012 by mukina2: 12:19am On Feb 05, 2012 |
Riding high on the support of their vociferous home fans, co-hosts Gabon have reached this far in the tournament and will challenge Mali for a semi-final place on Sunday. It is only the second time that the Panthers have gone this far at the Africa Cup of Nations. They finished on top of a three-team group at the 1996 Afcon following the late withdrawal of Nigeria. This time, however, the Gabonese have looked very impressive and they have been tipped by a couple of analysts to pull a shock victory at the end of the competition. Mali on the other hand have looked shaky at best when faced with big odds. After winning their first game against Guinea, they crumbled to Ghana before edging debutants Botswana to a 2-1 win. All the same, it is a big improvement for the Malians who crashed out in the group stages at the 2010 Afcon. However, they are still far from eclipsing their best ever runners-up record, which they enjoyed in 1972. Gabon and Mali are expected to serve up a delicious meal of football on Sunday in Libreville. The two sides are young and hungry for glory. While the Panthers have been more convincing during their three straight victories in the group phase, the pressure will be greater on Mali, as they have struggled to get this far. However, it is the knockout stages and anything can happen. Gabon striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will be back at his best considering his three goals so far while Mali veteran midfielder Seydou Keita, who got the winning goal against Botswana, will lead from the middle. |
