Mali defeated Guinea to earn a place in the 2024
Olympic Games in Paris. The Malians defeated Guinea 4-3 on penalties in the
third-and-fourth-place match in the U-23 Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco in
2023.
At the conclusion of the game's 90+5 minutes, no goals
were scored. Mali's first penalty attempt was missed, giving Guinea the upper
hand.
Unfortunately
for the Guineans, their happiness was short-lived as the Malians retaliated.
Two of Guinea's penalties were wasted; one struck the
goal post, while the other was stopped by Lassine Diarra of Mali.
Mali seized the chance to convert their final penalty
kick in order to win. Their victory has secured them a place in the Paris
Games.
