AFCON CAMEROON 2021 CHAN 2020: Coulibaly last spot kick fires Mali to final

Coulibaly fired Mali to the final of the Total African Nations Championship CHAN in the 5-4 spot kick victory over neighbours Guinea.

A close tie in Yaounde saw both teams played cautious and refusing to push too much on the attack.

There were few opportunities in the first-half as the tie between the neighbours was physical, restricting both sides to few opportunities in the exchanges.

Both teams failed to score after extra time as the game was decided from the spot.

The first four players from both side scored from the spot before Morlaye Sylla fluffed his side’s final kick while.

Coulibaly was Mali hero for the game as he sent Guinea substitute goalkeeper Sekouba Camara the wrong way with the final kick of the match to secure the Eagles’ place in the final.

Mali will have to wait until Wednesday night to know their opponents in Sunday’s final as hosts Cameroon take on title holders Morocco in the other semi-final match.
