Falaye Sacko missed the decisive penalty for Mali in the shootout as Equatorial Guinea won it 6-5 to move into the Africa Cup of Nations quarter-finals.
After 120 minutes of goalless action, it was a shootout full of drama, with Pablo Ganet seeing his effort, that would have sent Equatorial Guinea through, saved. Both sides then held their nerve as it went to the eighth takers, when Mali’s centre-back Sacko saw his tame effort saved by Jesus Owono.
