00:00waiting for referee to get the to blow his whistle for the match to start and here we are
00:08wearing their iconic orange kit attacking from right to left
00:15in their white attacking from left to right initial long ball played in strong determination
00:25from the number eight getting his first start of the tournament
00:30perhaps showed a little bit too much excitement but perhaps a bit nervous
00:36getting his first start maybe good luck for the side and starting off the tournament with
00:43a 6-1 victory perhaps was it an indicator of such Alinuaidara went on one of the keeper and he beats
00:49him gets his fifth goal of the tournament Alinuaidara magnificent timing of course
00:57he's not offside the pass was perfect and he found himself in so much space and time to make
01:02his decision and beat the nervy Yanis Sakho punishing Les Aiglons and in their sixth
01:10participation if they hold this result the first position of the group
01:18yeah it was a wonderful bit of play
01:19from the number 18
01:28finding a oh no excuse me we found Alinuaidara completely alone and
01:34knowing that he's in red hot form can't let a player who's with that much confidence
01:40alone inside the box and you'd expected him to score the whole time and it's 1-0
01:49making the net shiver Yannis Sakho does well there and he serves Bomba with a second
01:55time effort took one touch to get away from the defenders but perhaps they didn't push it far
02:00enough but it's well recovered from Les Aiglons who are continuing to apply pressure Bomba in front
02:04of the goal trying to go for the generous play several chances already created will Yannis Sakho
02:11the goalkeeper of Les Aiglons be called upon seemed like that was a play worked from the training
02:16ground doesn't go exactly to plan but is it a photo hold on to possession driving forward into
02:21the box and will that be a penalty call not too long of a hesitation from the referee
02:29but he gives it and it was excellent work from Vavwe Dumbia the ASEC Mimosa player
02:37he recovered the ball he got his body in front of defender Soumeil Lafanné who's not a defender
02:45by choice more of a left winger you just had a feeling that the referee was going to be forced
02:52to blow his whistle and point to the penalty spot the contact looks so faint on the replay but
02:59with the speed that he had picked up Dumbia
03:03here he comes and it's 2-0 for Les Elefantos Alinho Aidara gets his sixth of the tournament
03:15and it's what a it's a bit of a surprise to see Les Elefantos go up 2-0 against
03:22perhaps one of the favorites to win the tournament Les Aiglons du Mali
03:32calming his players down don't want them to get carried away either that was a simple penalty
03:36the inside of his right foot slotting it to the left of Yannis Sakho maybe not even the
03:42best penalty that he's ever taken in his short young career Aidara but it's enough
03:47to put his side up by two
03:56here comes the in swinging cross seems high it's almost on target goes over
04:04with Sindhu Dembélé attempting to score and catch Yannick Kwesi the goalkeeper off guard
04:10and it hasn't worked out for him and Les Aiglons are on the counter-attack Alinho Aidara is alone
04:15instead of opting for the simple pass Taptouali tried to get the third all on his own and he
04:22misses the target can he get the best using his pace he's provoking on the left wing deep cross
04:31he does find a teammate and the deflection takes it over the goalkeeper and it's 3-0
04:36for Les Elefantos what are we seeing today
04:41Magnifique from Alinho Aidara what a first half two goals one assist and fortune favors the brave
04:51as the deflection takes the ball above Yannis Sakho unable to get a palm to the ball that
04:57bounced over him looped by a deflection and it's so unfortunate for Les Aiglons du Mali
05:04who have been pushing pushing pushing but just unable to unlock the defensive
05:10CĂ´te d'Ivoire with one long ball found Alinho Aidara found the forgotten Taptouali
05:19no excuse me it was Diasouba Diasouba completely forgotten and it's a deflection by Lamine
05:28Keita
05:30and it really is a perfect deflection Yannis Sakho unable to reposition himself
05:37it looped high there was curl and it's 3-0 for Les Elefantos
05:46and if there's one side that needs a halftime break it's Madi oh but they've given it away
05:50poorly and carelessly Alinho Aidara he lets it go through for Bamba he's going to eliminate
05:54two players can't get the shot on target
05:59Les Aiglons du Mali desperately need the halftime
06:08oh but Madi perhaps can claw one back surprising then they do there we go the quality of
06:15Seydou Dembélé put on display just as I had mentioned he was one of the players that's capable of
06:20helping Les Aiglons du Mali come back
06:25oh no excuse me it was Soumey Lafanné Soumey Lafanné finding himself this time on the
06:32left while he was moved on to the right replay again yeah look at the pressing from Seydou
06:39Dembélé all the energy all the determination look to his right to perhaps even play the ball
06:44faked out everyone oh excellent from Seydou Dembélé and he's been asking this time gets the
06:52answer and it's three to one for Les Aiglons du Mali against Les Aiglons du Mali here in Bereshid
06:57Morocco for this closing match of group D of the Total Energy's U17 Africa Cup of Nations
07:04Seydou Dembélé brought it back but it was the Aiglons du Mali who were the ones on the front foot
07:10for 45 minutes or so they let their concentration down and were punished severely with a goal
07:17and that goal perhaps has significant implications for the second half because Les Aiglons du Mali
07:22are a dangerous side they were the favorites going into this tournament to perhaps even win it all
07:33and it's kicked off the Elefanto attacking now from left to right
07:38Les Aiglons du Mali from right to left
07:40who was a bit of a super sub on match day one and scored from a set piece
07:55he'll look to have an impact as a super sub yet again
08:10he tries to get it back can he send a ball back in he does it's Bomba
08:25this is much better from Les Aiglons du Mali
08:30much much better in how they're producing and creating can they cut the lead down to one
08:35perhaps it will be through this free kick but there's going to be
08:40a video assistant refereeing incident Tianwan Kukwa is going to have a look
08:49was there a penalty
08:53she has the images let's see was Njikwa Bomba impeded when he was turning around to shoot
09:01it really depends was his left foot attempting to protect the ball it did seem like there was contact
09:12he's with his left foot if he was trying to protect
09:16and after reviewing the images there will be a penalty for Les Aiglons
09:21an opportunity to come back and cut the lead back down to one
09:25wonder talent can he get his second of the match
09:31Sidhu Dembele against Christiany Kwesi second penalty of the match here it comes the run-up
09:38Sidhu Dembele he fails to score but it's going to be converted by Njikwa Bomba who believed
09:46all the way and they are furious Gaudivois the reaction of Christiany Kwesi by Christiany Kwesi
09:56he won his duel but then Njikwa Bomba was coming in with so much pace on the follow-up
10:02and just rockets the ball home from very close distance
10:09and that's disappointing for the goalkeeper yeah it seems like none of the Elefanto followed up
10:16maybe they didn't believe that their goalkeeper was going to stop it
10:19what a huge defensive mistake from the teammates of Christiany Kwesi
10:26will even surprise all of us and be lofted it's driven and there were two to three
10:33Elefanto who are charging in to just make any kind of contact Hasuba having to be
10:38stretched off the pitch play resumes and now there are six minutes left to be played at least
10:45oh off the volley Lamine Sidhu and Keita never stop believing
10:49one
10:52oh lovely bit of skill and a backheel to create space it's a shot that's going to be towards
10:57target and what a goal
11:00c'est incroyable unbelievable scenes here at the
11:05San Municipale de Bereshid as a substitute Brulais Cissé on his first touch of the ball
11:11on the first touch of the ball excuse me rifles the ball into the top corner beating Yanis Sakho
11:20it's unbelievable they've done it they have defeated Les Aiglons four to two
11:28on this match day three encounter and they are
11:31going to be the group leaders heading into the quarterfinals on Friday
11:39magic magic from the foot of Brulais Cissé and I can't wait to see the replay
11:50from such distance you would have thought it could have been a speculative effort
11:54but no he knew exactly what he was doing must have been waiting on the bench biting his time
12:00and then when he's introduced and given the chance to to shine Brulais Cissé takes it
12:05look at the focus and then the execution it's perfect the curve and from the moment it left
12:12his foot you could tell by his face he knew he got it smoothly and he caught it cleanly
12:16and the scenes of joy and that's the final whistle blown
12:214-2 victory for Les Elephantaux over Les Aiglons a wonderful team effort
12:29from the team in orange and they deservedly get their victory
