Live Result

Cote d' ivoire 0 vs Burkina Faso 2 Full time

Gambia 0 vs Congo 0 10 mins of Play

Amodu. . . thanks. It's been a while, hope you're alright now.

Gambia has become the first team to book a place in the semi-final of the AYC. They beat Host Congo 1 - 0 courtsey of a last minute second freekick.

While Cote d' Ivoire's loss to Burkina Faso means they are out of the tournament, irrespective of the result of their last group match against Gambia.

Eagles do not share the same ground with crawling scorpions.

Eagles fly were tail-less scorpions can never even dream to aspire!
